Not sure if this one is bugged, but as of beta 4.0.3.13117, the chance that a slacking laborer will agg on you instead of giving quest credit upon talking to them seems a lot higher than it should be. Took me quite a while to get all 6 needed for the quest.

Commento di Hamunaptra

Indeed. Seem like most of the workers rather die then work :<

Commento di 448957

I can not for the life of me, get these guys to respawn, been waiting 3 hours now and ive already abandoned and picked up again twice.

Guess I'll go elsewhere in uldum

Commento di 43327

The worst part is, you don't even seem to get any experience for all of the ones that attack you

Commento di 124958

If you want to avoid fighting the slackers who respond aggressively, mount up on your flying mount and then interact with them.

If you hear the aggro noise, fly up in the air, you will drop combat and they will despawn. If you're successful, you won't need to dismount.

Commento di mrqwerty

You dont have to fight anything if you are on your flying mount...

Commento di 420419

If you are used to play with camera at max distance, turning nameplates off helps here to see what laborers are slacking

Commento di Slater

Pretty bad quest. I've talked to 12 slackers and only 2 completed, and the respawns are horrible as previously mentioned.

Edit: After posting, I got 4 out of my next 5. RNG is RNG.

Commento di 722445

Easy mode with mount just PULL in air before thay answer 100% thay will respond positive

Commento di MutantFod

if you accidentally take off the uniform, you won't be able to talk with them

Commento di 626288

its pretty easy qst, just find the slacking laborer and try to talk to them while you are on mount and after u talk just fly a bit away so they cant hit you and they gonna disappear and if you are lucky they will not hit you and you will done your quest

Commento di variant001

I have the problem that there where just 2 of them to talk and wait for 30min and no more respawn, so i kill all of them and then respawn in 5min and i was able to talk to them and finish the quest

Commento di snivels

When i put the uniform on they turn yellow but when i hover over them, there is no chat bubble, only a sword as if to attack them. Has anyone come across this problem?

Commento di 3rman

You have to attack the Slacking Laborers first. I took them below %50 and then talked to them. Bam! They are motivated.

Commento di crescentwindx

If you use a fear ability on one of the Slacking Laborers who's attacking you, there's a chance they will bring the regular laborers back with them to attack you - even if you're still wearing the uniform and they are non-aggressive to you! So watch out with those fear bombs.

Commento di 729353

To make this quest faster, use your flying mount, talk to the Slacking Laborer, and after finishing the talk fly, so you can do it faster. It worked for me, finished the quest in less than 5 minutes.

Commento di 433733

My mage friend/guildmate got 6 motivated out of 7... I got 6 motivated out of 25

Commento di DarkSyn

I started this quest mounted. I'd locate the lazy imbeciles, click on them to start dialogue n immediately rise up enough out of reach if they attacked. Took 3-4 mts. total to get all of the required men.

Commento di Lohoris

You have to remove your weapons before entering the zone, just put them to backpack, weapon slots must be empty (i removed even ranged) and they're all over area called shnottz landing ^^

With weapons on 3/3 attacked me.
With weapons off only 1/7 attacked.
These numbers are so small they hardly can be considered correct, but it is worth a try.

Commento di 687940

Indeed Napkyn. Just stay on ur flying mount! :D

Commento di 734285

I don't know if it was a coincidence, but I have never been attacked by the ones sleeping, when interacting with them.

Woke up at least 4 in a row, and none turned aggro.

Can anyone confirm this?

Commento di 735866

Spawn rate for "Slacking Laborer" is crappy, but that's the only thing I found wrong with the quest. As long as you have the patience to wait around for the "Slacking Laborer" to spawn ... you're good.

Commento di Egke

Idd...that works, fly over the area, talk to the ones that are sitting or sleeping (you can see green zzzzzz upon them) and it will take you no more than 5 mins

Commento di whquaint

Yeah the success rate is horrible, but at least if you are mounted and fly up a little after talking to them, you don't have to fight them. Thus you can go through many of them quickly and finally get all you need.

Commento di 445277

I had 100% success rate when I stayed on my flying mount. Not sure if it's an "intimidation" thing so to say but once I stayed on took less then 30 seconds.

Commento di 678009

This quest is clearly lacking in some form of BOOTERANG.

Compliant peons-- I mean laborers take a little longer to respond than hostiles. Also, not-Slacking laborers nearby WILL aggro if you trigger a hostile.

Commento di 743624

i had a problem with the first ones i tried for, but noticed that while i was talking to them, if you watch what they are saying before you tell them to get back to work, you can usually tell which ones are going to attack. the more aggressive sounding statement, like the ones that complain about not getting paid = attack, more bored, such as the one asking you to block the shade for him = less likely to attack

Commento di 744092

I found this to be one of the easiest quests ever.... after killing about a dozen and finally figuring it out :).

Only talk to the laying down or sitting down slacking workers. They will show a conversation bubble when you mouse over them.

Simple.

Commento di 743012

Alright, all i can say is your best bet to get this done quickly, Dont have any weapons equipped, use your flying mount to fly into the air when they go hostile, and dont land on the ground when you talk to them, stay hovering in the air a little.

Commento di mistadabolina

leads to crisis management

Commento di woodsielord

Prepare to grind like the vanilla days. It took me at least 4 attackers per remotivated. That makes at least 24 kills and 30 slackers hunted.

Commento di chibee

I'm not sure if this is a bug or intended, but if you want to save yourself some time on this quest, I have a tip: Read the 'gossip' text of the slackers before trying to motivate them. ONLY the ones who complained about it being too hot to work in their uniforms actually went back to work for me. I don't know if this will work for everyone, but it's worth a shot.

Commento di 764265

Ok, This quest has nothing to do with your weapons.
I completed the whole thing w/ them on.
The best thing is to be flying equiped, and fly if they agrro.

killed one then read this forum. and the only thing i was doing wrong was I had picked the wrong type of worker.

done in 3 min.

Commento di 769693

The fastest respawn rates for these guys is in the site (24,60) near the camp, but it seems to me at least that they are more likely to fight you in this area then they are in the other two areas.

Commento di Trond

"Slackers Motivated", so you need to talk to the one who sits or sleeps, not those who works and are active ;)

Commento di aoeu

If I'm wearing the uniform, shouldn't I be trying to fake the accent?

"Enough zlackin! You're behind zhedule!"

Commento di ladyval75

One of the things I discovered was the slacking laborers that are sitting down, usually do not attack, they just go to work. The ones that are sleeping tend to attack.

Commento di 774061

on my hunter i just used track humanoids and they all showed up on minimap. finished quest quickly. not sure if druids still have use of the same method?

Commento di 807715

As far as I could tell, if you talk to the ones that are sleeping they will get back to work. As another person stated, I found that if you catch them right when they get back to sitting they respond positively and get back to work. I'm thinking Blizzard might have being creative on this one... I recommend paying attention to what they are saying and they're actions. Once I found the 'pattern' I finished the quest right away... I hope this helps a little, I sure as heck needed all of your help, got it, and I thank you all for it!

Commento di 809402

Very easy: attack before you talk to them! They'll go right back to work!

Edit: Hmm, sorry, that only worked on the first two, didn't quite work on all the time. It mainly worked on sleeping workers but not all.

Commento di Evismang

Not sure if this quest was ninja-changed, but I remember how annoying it was right after Cata released, when it seemed 10% success rate for the workers to go back to work. I just did it and only had to go through 8 or 9 workers to get all 6 needed. When I did it in December, it took about 20 workers.

Commento di Aedilhild

After investigating, I think specific reactions are almost certainly intended. Laborers who ask a player to block the sun or complain about the heat will not attack; Laborers who complain about wages will attack. If you right-click to discover the latter, exit the dialog and right-click again — another complaint will be chosen at random, so you'll eventually find the Laborer in a, shall we say, amenable disposition.

Commento di 828969

Found this quest worked best when i selected the ones that were close to the large wooden poles.

Commento di kalfeer

Same model as Maintaining Discipline from Brunnhildar village in Storm Peaks. Except not daily.

Commento di Phainein

I killed about 15 on foot before staying mounted up and had about a 50% success rate this way. I don't know if it's coincidence or not.

Commento di 708645

when you approach a lazy soldier, isolate him and if he has a symbol for speaking, then he is ok to click on and u will get the credit

Commento di Venomazz

Is there any pre-quest?

Commento di 852967

incase anyone was wanting to keep the uniform unfortunately you cant use it outside of schnottz landing

Commento di crossbow30

Hints I've learned about doing this quest
1. Hanging your weapons up...Very Useful
2. Staying on your flying mount...Very Useful
But This One:
3. Remembering to put on the uniform...PRICELESS!

Commento di oakleafwolf

The best way to complete this quest... is to bring someone into the room and watch you do it, so you can show them how terrible it is.

Seriously.

I don't know how many of these guys I killed; streams of lazy laborers becoming angry and choosing death over work. Eventually, I came here and found the flying mount trick, only to aggro even more of the workers. I called my fiancee over to watch how terrible the success rate is.... and got six peaceful workers in a row.

She may not believe me, but my quest is DONE! XD

Commento di CataBreed

I will somewhat agree with Oakleafwolf, You can go in and run away if they attack 1,2, or even three at a time ( This being lvl 85) They will disappear though after they run back to where you attacked.

The flying mount trick does work! I did however noticed a somewhat lower success rate but still got it done. Fly down atop of them and talk to them, if they attack fly up. Simple. Enjoy!

Hope this makes sense, if not let me know! Cheers!

A good, solid candidate for most pointless and worst quest ever.

Commento di Aros

Various things they say:

Slacking Laborer says: I should never have left Tanaris.
Slacking Laborer says: I didn't sign up for this.
Slacking Laborer says: Yeah, yeah. When aren't we behind schedule?
Slacking Laborer says: I haven't been paid since I got here! I'm through with this place!
Slacking Laborer says: I can't believe I fell for Schnottz lies! I'm out of here!
Slacking Laborer says: I have a message for you to deliver to that tyrant!
Slacking Laborer says: I'm not working for that maniac anymore!
Slacking Laborer says: I'm done working in this heat!

Commento di 923022

Arghhh .. really mad after 17 slackers in a row turned hostile. This about my 15th toon that's done this quest and never seen anything like it. Logged, stomped around the house for a while, came back on and it's back to normal, only every 2nd or 3rd slacker jumps you. Try the re-logging if you're having real bad luck.

Commento di 922360

I can really relate to this slacking laborer thing. Wen i found this 1st one snoozing i thot, yeah, datz me.
I just right clicked n woke em up naturally. Killing them was getting me nowhere.
4D HORDE!

Commento di Shadowjack1965

Found another camp at 20.59 53.80 in case anyone needs more slackers.

Commento di 930096

Small tip for druids, when you are talking to the slackers do it in your flight form. If the slacker prepares to attack you just fly high and you will get out of combat. Then just talk to them again and they should start working. No fighting needed for peace loving druids :3

Commento di arrica

You can just stay on your mount, and if the slackers begin to attack you, just fly away.
-But beware, they can pull you of the mount!

Commento di emzyyx

I found a large group at 20.5, 53.9 and also at 18.0, 60.1. Like other people have said, if you mount up and hover over them when you talk to them, if they turn aggressive just fly in the air a little bit and it will despawn!

Commento di DeliaDelilah

I had terrible luck trying to get proper response, then realised that reapplying uniform helped tremendously. Esp after a combat encounter re apply uniform. Went from 1 in 10 to every other attempt succesful in getting workers off their ass. And also found that staying mounted was best approach.

Commento di 973023

For those of you having trouble with this quest, in order to to complete it you must first equip "Refurbished Trooper Uniform. Once you do the slackers will go from hostile to neutral, then you can talk to them. Hope this helps!

Commento di Steakmanchu

The highest rated comments here are useless. Here is what you have to do:

1. Go to Schnottz's landing
2. Click on the uniform to put it on (You must be in Schnottz's Landing)
3. Find a slacking worker. They are either sitting or sleeping. You cannot talk to workers that are working.
4. Left click on him to talk to him. Your cursor will turn into a chat bubble when you are able to do this.

Most will attack you, and some will go back to work. You do not have to remove your weapons. Being mounted allows you to fly away if one starts to attack you after talking to him, and speeds up the quest.

Good luck.

Commento di 991148

Hey guys, it seems that the ones saying: "Say, would you mind just blocking the sun with your shadow for a little while. That be great...." are the ones you need to talk to. Just talk to the slackers and if they don't respond as above, close the chat window and try again.

Commento di Zuljid

The ratio of slackers that will go "back to work" is appalling in comparison with the ones that will go mad and try to kill you...

As many people have already said, do this quest while in a flying mount or form, so you can avoid a useless fighting and keep moving.

Commento di Barbarrossa

What an epic waste of time.
