Halgrind is north on the map, its a darker green oval-shaped region north of New Agamand. Head in, and use the quest item on the Hostile humanoids there, fairly self-explanatory.

You will like this quest as a BM Hunter, just put your pet on defensive and run around spraying.

The Plague Spray can be used anywhere, and is spammable to create a big, green smoke screen.

You know, in case you ever need to create a big, green smoke screen.

Comment by Sakon

Sadly this quest seems to be bugged in the recent patch.

Comment by 143990

found away around the glitch, at least for druids, if you faerie fire them from a distance, then cast the item on them, you get credit

Comment by Zyseera

As a paladin turn off retribution aura or you won't get credit.

Comment by 352074

For shadow priests: you need to sort of combine some of the above comments. You MUST hurt them before using the spray (letting them hurt themselves hitting you doesn't seem to work), and you MUST NOT be in Shadowform (similar to turning off Ret aura I guess).

The problem here is not killing them before using the spray. I found letting Mind Flay tick once and then stopping it and using the spray worked out ok. Just be careful of the Proto-drakes flying around. If one decides you look tasty switch back into Shadowform, cause they hurt.

Comment by taohu

I wanded as an opener for those vrykul then used the spray, all the time not leaving shadowform, and I got credit for the quest.

Comment by svinjaxz

just use unarmed autoattack / wand

Comment by Bolts

As a mage, putting Living Bomb on them before using the spray worked for me.

Comment by 311053

As a pally you can also use Hand of Reckoning to pull them, confirmed on 3.1

Comment by 120959

As a mage ice lance worked...

The problems with this quest highlight the problems with tapping mobs. They have to be tapped to you before you can use the quest item. Blizzard claims any damage will tap a mob but that is not true. Letting them get hurt by attacking you does not tap them to you only intentional damage taps them and you have to be careful not to kill them because they are diseased and their health is so low.

When I started I used frost bolt but literally one shot all of them even without critting.

I wish I could get a job as a project head. I could make the combat systems so much nicer. Call me Blizz!

Comment by 66995

As of 3.1 basically you just need to hit the mob, or use an offensive spell, (for a DK example, Death Grip) and then it should register after you apply the spray.

Comment by Warluckey1

This q still bugs

Comment by WoWFace

or you can do what i did and not do the quest and just keep the item for the fun of making a big green smoke screen^^^

Comment by 225109

In order to get credit for spraying you need to tag the mob first.

Happy questing, my fellow combat rogues
Auto attack
Spray
Dodge
Dead mob
Unfair Advantage FTW

No, actually you can use your weakest attack like throw or simply show your back to the mob and start spraying

Comment by FeyGyrl

On my pally, I simply used Hand of Reckoning, which tagged them as hit, without doing too much damage, then I could spray them. AoE damage did not seem to work to get credit on a group in order to spray them, so I had to snag them one at a time. Just my experience, tonight.

Comment by 146257

Attacking first works. Good time to get naked and use a fishing pole :) I attempted to do this for a while on my 80 pally trying to do loremaster couldn't figure out why the quest was not working. Good luck all and hope this helps

Comment by Kenyiro

true worked for me but no have weapon and spray

Comment by 51040

Just tried doing this quest as a druid.

Hitting with my mace in caster form? No credit.

Hitting with my mace in moonkin form? No credit.

Hitting with an attack in cat form? Credit, finally.

Still seems very buggy.

Comment by 370117

thz guys ...attack and spray it works..

Comment by HerrCorrector

For the Druids. Just Faerie Fire, spray and kill.

Comment by 44284

Decked out in Kara/Zul'aman gear (rogue), I tend to kill them in two hits so remove a few weapons first.

Throw works well too, but the aggro range was large and so I wasn't always able to use it.

Comment by 108353

for DK's, set your ghoul to passive (if u use one full time), then target, then use dark command, then spray, then kill. worked every time.

Comment by 381031

LOL I'm seein all these weird posts sayin you have to take off your wep and hit em once or twice THEN apply the green #$%^ for it to count cause of the bug. All you gotta do is taunt em, was lvlin my dk there and I just used Dark Command is all and spray and kill, easy peasy

Comment by 414568

I still one hit them with no weapons, i have to strip naked T_T

Comment by 419540

Sort of frustrating as a paladin... I had to un-equip my weapon because they have close to no life and I was one shotting them before I could spray them ><

Comment by Rockettman

Reading the above 2 posts got me wondering if you guys just used fist (using white attack) or removed your weapon and used skill (using yellow attack), the latter will probably have lots more dmg.

Comment by kristinpants

This worked, thank you! You gotta attack them first, THEN spray.

To get around the bug, you must first attack once, then apply the item.

Still not working for me... I tried spray first and kill, hit first then spray and kill, hit first then spray and let the dot kill them, spray one and let it attack another one to death... I'd say I tried just about every way you could do this and didn't get credit for anything. I'm quite sure this is completely bugged now.

Edit:
Had to disable some of my addons, then it worked just fine! Not sure which one was doing it, but disabling mods is a good place to start before opening a ticket.

Comment by r8response

Shamans can use Windshock

Comment by 429924

Okay, this ones a big summary since i had troubles with this quest...

50,56

Attack them first, whether it be with a totem, or a pet, or a punch.

If your a shaman such as myself, just use a totem you can get like all 10 at once.

"WARNING" They only have like 1200 life enraged, so theres a good chance they die if your using any kind of weapon.

Rate this up so you dont have to read all the comments for one summary.

Comment by 304873

Just reiterating what other folks have said. It didn't work for me as a quest backtracking 80 hunter until I disarmed and put my pet on passive. Attack with a punch, spray, have fun with a little fistfight. Got credit.

Comment by 430998

Yeah this quest is totally bugged out i tried using spells, my wand, my mace, fists and nothing worked.
This is especially disappointing to me as there is a nice offhand reward :'(

Comment by Gnostik

I found that just hitting them once, then spraying, wouldn't work. I had to get them below a certain percentage, and then spray. The threshold seemed to be around 50%.

Comment by 362863

lol... nearly all the comments above are obsolete. As of the last few patches, this quest works fine without needing to do anything special. Just spray the mobs. No need to attack first or use any ability, just spray 'em as directed.

Comment by Allakhazam

51,57 in halgrind

Comment by Allakhazam

i had a problem that i killed them to fast... what i did then
hand 2 hand fight so my dmg was very very low... then i could finish this quest

Comment by Allakhazam

Spray the plagued vrykul and the will grow a bit and attack. However, they are much weaker and can be killed quickly. Easy quest. Leads to follow up "Parts for the Job".

Comment by Allakhazam

not sure what is wrong, spray them they grown and go nuts, but not getting credit ANYWAY I kill them, root and wait, barehanded, probably another "FEATURE" of 3.1.1. Thanks blizzard, another well thought out, properly coded patch...NOT. This game is NOT getting better, quite the opposite, it is getting simpler and stupider by the day...

Comment by Allakhazam

This confused me, thought it was a glitch in the new update. You need to hit them at least once before you spray them, otherwise you get no results :-(

Comment by Allakhazam

I was having the same problem as arkfeld. I had to abandon the quest and take it up again and even then I had to do a little bit of damage to them and then spray them. I had to equip my skinning knife to do the small amount of damage to them but even then that was sometimes unreliable. I'm just such a killer. LOL
Hopefully they'll fix this quest. I was able to do it, though.

Comment by Allakhazam

You have to attack them a bit first before applying the spray..... once you apply the spray, they die much quicker.

But you need to hit them first before applying it. Was easy for me... no problems.

Field Test

	Plagued Vrykul Sprayed (10)

Provided item:

	Plague Spray (1)

Description

Now that we have a strain of the plague that has adapted to vrykul carriers, we really ought to test it on our specimens in Halgrind. If all goes according to plan, they will disintegrate immediately as the plague devours their innards!
