33, 15 Tkashi Ruins (Drops from Bloodscalp Trolls)

Comment by 29872

Any type of Bloodscalp Trolls will drop these necklaces.

I found a good drop rate at Bal'lal Ruins. (28,20)

Comment by 23324

I pretty much stuck around Bal'lal also. It's still a pretty poor rate, considering you need 25.

Comment by 45595

You can get this done at the Bal'lal Ruins (29,19) right ouside Grom'Gol Base Camp.

You should attempt the following quests together,

1) Bloodscalp Insight
2) Hunt for Yenniku
3) Bloodscalp Ears
4) Bloody Bone Necklaces

4 quests done at once.

Comment by CHA53R

I would try and find a site that hasn't been cleared for a while. I went to Bal'lal while it was full of trolls, no Allies or Horde around. Almost every single one dropped the necklaces.

After that, the respawn dropped 1 for every 7-8 trolls.

There are so many people on this quest! lol, hard to get away so you can kill them for yourself, but possible! helps if you have all the Bloodscalp troll quests at the same time so you can kill many bird with one stone! drops are not so great in this one, but for the BloodScalp ears quests they are pretty good, just look for the ruins, the main one that i worked with was the one right on the coast outside of the base camp... Good Luck!

2750xp as of 2.3

Comment by 122530

Something i've found is that if you head to the Zuuldaia Ruins (18,10) there is no-one around, the drops are better, the mobs respawn faster and there's more of them around. the drop rate of the necklaces is still terrible though.

Comment by 138902

There are ruins to the Northwest of Grom'Gol, the ones that have the Bloodscalp Trolls, go there and kill them, any kind of them drop the necklaces. Drop rate is pretty decent, it's somewhat of a patience quest. Good quest to rack up some xp though.

Comment by 104949

The necklaces drop off of any Bloodscalp troll so you shouldn't go off farming them there are plenty of quests you can do with this quest:
Hunt of Yenniku
Headhunting
Bloodscalp clan heads

Comment by Thottbot

Easy pickings. Go North West from Grol'gol along the shoreline and you'll get to the Bal'lol Ruins. I couldn't go and attack everyone in the ruins so I kept on circling around them taking out the stragglers. Easy 2100XP and trolls are 33-34.

Comment by Thottbot

Coordinates please ?

Comment by Thottbot

horrible quest, low drop rate for me

Comment by Thottbot

I liked this one because I was able to knock out 3 quests in one little patch of STV.
I'm currently a 38 Druid, and waited on these until I could solo them, but it's worth it.
Cords: 30,20
The drop rate is low on the necklaces. But you also have two other quests:
The Defense of Grom'Gol
Hunt For Yenniku

i found some at 24.13

Comment by Thottbot

I am a 35 and I found 36's and 37's at tloc 21,13.

Comment by Thottbot

Quest is easy, when you grind some mobs at 24,10 they drop easily and you got the quest completed fast then

Comment by Thottbot

Drop rate is horrendous.

Leave it.

Comment by Thottbot

... are fairly easy to find. You find it near Nessingway's Expedition (check map) at the ruins and at Bal'lol ruins on the Bloodscalps.

The drop rate is undetermanable, but it all gives a nice XP.

I recommend doing the quest. It takes some time, but it gives nice XP plus XP from handing in the quest.

It's so easy that I did the quest when it was RED. I was lvl 32 becoming lvl 33

Comment by Thottbot

From the main camp, head along the beach (northwest) and you will find the ruins... (watch out for crocks when running along the beach, they agro and are a pain).

You will find a whole ruins full there, but if you want more, head east from there and you will find another ruins in the jungle with more...

I teamed up with someone else and we got through it in about half an hour... The drop rate seems to be ok... but you have to get quite a lot so..... Also it doubles with another quest (find yennuka) so you can do both at once...

Comment by Thottbot

This quest is NOT meant to be completed all at once, and is a very good quest to grab and do. There are three other standard troll killing quests, one from Grom'grol for Bloodscalp Tusks, one that follows that for shrunken heads from Headhunters on the coast, and one for Bloodscalp Ears from Booty Bay. You'll easily end up with 25 of these doing the other quests, and the trolls will drop Green Hills pages. These can either be sold (usually 10-15s, but you can get 20-25 no problem if there aren't loads on or if you buy them all out) or used (trade the ones you have in 'swaps' obviously).

The mobs tend to pull in twos or even threes in some sections, but there are chests to be had, so if you're going for these then use Poly, Stoneclaw totem, Sap or whatever CC techniques that are available to your class; if you're a hunter just pull 18 of them at once and destroy them with impunity.

Comment by Thottbot

All these 3 quests is simple. I solo'ed all three of them when I was 31 Mage. Nothing difficult at all. The highest lvl mob was just 34.

Comment by Thottbot

Yes this quest is a good Grinding quest but yhe drop rate is lousy and it takes a very very! long time too complete im 31 lock and i take 3 at a time...But anyways Good luck and Co ords are Corect!

Comment by Thottbot

I would recomend doing this quest if you have a nice big rested exp amount to burn off. Dont just discard the quest its a good way to get the pages for The Green Hills of Stranglethorn. And best cords are at 21 , 14 you will not get mombed there

Comment by Thottbot

Because of the lowdroprate I still love this quest... It's easy for a lvl 36 frostspecced mage... Shield on, Frost Nova & Blizzard :D
Just luv it ;)

Comment by Thottbot

For me got a better drop rate vs Blood axe thrower

Comment by Thottbot

Be prepared to spend 2-3 hours on this one quest alone. The drop rate is awful. A-W-F-U-L. In fact, skip this quest altogether, not worth the rewards at all.

Comment by Thottbot

This quest is soo annoying you have to grind Level thirty_one to thirty_fours:( It takes alot of time but its easy just go to the place beside the vile reef Level thirty two Tauren Hunter :) Graywolf :) :) SERVER: UNDERMINE

Comment by Thottbot

I'm ATM soloing this as a lvl 32 hunt (well basically pet doing the dmg while i sit back and just shoot an arrow or 2 lol)
xD
crappy drop rate and yeah good for exp
so eh do what u like but my decision final... Grind there, get the pages and hopefully some of those Bloody Bone Necklace

Comment by Thottbot

yall &*!@#es r cryng over the drop rate but mine was easy finsihed all 3 in abut 30 minutes

Comment by Thottbot

there seemed to be a better drop rate at the 21.12 location.

Comment by Thottbot

This quest is veyr worthwhile when doing it simultaneousely with a quest called -Bloodscalp Ears-

Comment by Thottbot

The drop rate is around 33% I killed more than 50 trolls to get all 25 necklaces

Comment by Thottbot

Yes the drop rate is around there

Comment by Thottbot

Drop rate is a bit low but trolls give some nice exp so it worths.Though you have to be carefull not to pull too many at once!

Comment by Thottbot

The drop rate may be terrible but I get about 200 exp (I'm level 35) so the exp is good.

Comment by Thottbot

this quest took me for ever cos i was only lvl 31 when i did it but my pet took damage for most of it but i could only take them 1 at a time but i did give me a quarter of my overall xp =) when i was rested!

Comment by Allakhazam

Not sure why this quest was given such a high level. Did this mostly solo (on PvE) as a lvl 32/33 priest (levelled up in the middle). The lvl 32-34 trolls drop them. If your levels are low, just circle the camp and pick them off one by one. They respawn fairly quickly anyway.

Axe throwers are easy pickings.
Scavengers are tougher than axe throwers, but still pretty unremarkable.
Shamans have low health, but do insane amounts of damage.
Warriors can interrucpt casting and cause problems.

Comment by Allakhazam

After the Honor system came.
hunting these trolls is not always easy alone when u are a horde. try to atleast be 2 persons if ur under lvl 35

Comment by Allakhazam

I've found the Tkashi ruins to be the easiest for hunting Bloodscalps- they're near the road and located just southeast of Nesingwary's Expedition, so you can pick up quests there easily.

Simply do circles around the ruins, picking off the distanced Bloodscalps. I also recommend doing this with Finding Yenniky and Bloodscalp Ears, so you can get all three done. If you're on the third stage of Tiger Mastery, Elder Stranglethorn Tigers are easily found there too, so that's four quests you could be handling at the same time.

There are 4 types of Bloodscalp at the ruins, all lv34-35:

Axe Thrower- these just shoot from range. Just get in close to force them to melee.
Warrior- Melee units, who pack Shield Bash (spell interrupt) and Disarm, so they have something against any class.
Scavenger- Melee units, nothing too special. Can inflict a 30 second DoT poison that ticks for 19 very 3 seconds.
Shaman- Possess Lightning Shield (about 80 nature damage) and occasionaly use Fire Nova (AoE about 120 fire damage) melee-ers. Inflict a lot of damage, but low hit points, so easily taken down.

All of them enrage at low health, increasing damage dealt, and none of them run.

As a 32 Druid, it was relatively simple. Pull with Starfire, Faerie Fire, drop to Bear and melee. They didn't inflict a lot of damage with the extra armour, and Disarm doesn't affect feral forms. I used cat form for Shamans, since the armour didn't help much.

Comment by Allakhazam

Stupid trolls don't like dropping these necklaces.

Comment by Allakhazam

This quest is difficult only because the necklaces have a very low drop rate; maybe 1 out of every 4 or 5 trolls dropped one. (I was level 36 at the time.) Personally, I recommend the beachside ruins over T'kashi, simply because the former has a higher mob count, a faster spawn rate, and you don't have to worry about tigers and panthers sneaking up on you.

Comment by Allakhazam

this quest wa easy but the respawn rate was crap as loads of allaicne were killing the others while i was kill some the other side :(

Comment by Allakhazam

right cords are 26,11!

Comment by Allakhazam

I got 16k of XP just killing them. I died a lot because of ganking.

Comment by Allakhazam

Solo'd as Lev 38 Tauren Hunter. Pretty straight forward. Just watch your pulls or you could be knee deep in trolls! You get both Bloody Bone Necklaces & Shrunken Skulls on this one. So have Headhunting quest to make it worth while. Would be tedious to do it 2-3 times.

Comment by Allakhazam

I did some of it in a group, which wasn't very smart cause it took a lot of time to get about 5. Then Solo'd as lvl 37 Tauren Shaman. There's a camp just north of Grom'gol, and I just circled it. By the time I went round once, they already respawned. took about 20 min, but was easy.

Comment by Allakhazam

Well, it says it's for 37 and i did it at 31 with no problem. Killing 33-35 trolls. Took some time but

Comment by Allakhazam

well were is the area were i kill the trols i go to the area 42,34 ut there is only like lvl 38 trolls and lvl 40 trolls there so were i kill the trolls i need?

Comment by Allakhazam

i found that scavengers had a higher drop rate

Comment by Allakhazam

I went to Bal'lal Ruins just NW of Grom'gol along the coast. They were all 33-35 and drop rate was decent. I did this with Bloodscalp Insight and Hunt for Yenniku, so I often got 2-3 quest items at a time. I probably ended up killing 75-80 trolls in the end, the Shaman actually being the easiest for me.

I did this as a level 35 Blood Elf Paladin with very little problem, even when mobbed by 2 or 3.
