You don't have to kill the Larva before it's finished with the metamorph, they will still be able to drop their Silkwing Cocoon

Commento di monstar

Just kill larvae, the cocoons have a small chance of dropping irrespective of whether they spawn a Silkwing, which they will if you don't finish them off fast enough when their health is low

Commento di Heathcliff

If you fear them when they start to metamorph, they won't spawn the butterfly.

Commento di Farmbuyer

I've killed 27 larva, with 1 quest drop.

No rewards, no quest chain, no rep? Screw this, and screw the companion silkwing quest as well. *Maybe* at 70 for gold, but not now.

Commento di 27300

takes a while to kill them, but do it with the other quest "The Softest Wings"

Commento di Boroxxar

When I first got this quest and the "The Softest Wings" quest I tried for over an hour with ony one drop.

I found when I left the area for a few days and came back I was getting a drop for both quests almost every second kill.

Hope that helps.

Cheers

I found I had a better drop rate on the cocoons after i completed The Softest Wings quest.

Commento di 77638

I found the silkcocoons at 65% at the silkwing laves in lvl 66 and only 33% on those in lvl 65, maybe is it just a coincidense..

One more note, the Silkwings only spawned 4 times og of 20.. witch means they have 1/5 chance..

Commento di Basmothel

My best lucked seemed to be with letting the Larva metamorph and split open. Not only did the drop rate for the cocoons seem higher for me then, but the Silkwings that emerge in this event drop the Iridescent Wings for https://www.cuckhead.com/wotlk/quest=10618, allowing you to complete both quests with more efficiency .

Save yourself the trouble and don't do this quest. No rewards, horrible drop rate...makes you really hate wow. Killed 14 in a row...only 2 drops.

Commento di 88582

while the droprate might be horrible, the gray drops are really nice. all the dung that has no use for anyone, I havent even completed the quest, had to empty my bags and sold their carapaces etc to vendor... about 20 gold worth that dung. :D

Commento di 84502

Quickest way I found to do both this q and The Softest Wings is to just let the larvae hatch and kill the silkwings that spawn, since these only seem to have about 3k hp and you can get the Iridescent Wings from them

Commento di 87741

hey guys i have aids

Commento di 125160

This quest has a horrible drop rate.Took me about 25 mins finishing this quest and ''softest wings'', wich is a good quest to do at the same time.

Commento di 25141

As a druid, I saved up 5 combo points, got the mob to 25%, then hit em with maim. Wait for some energy then try to kill them extremely quick before they have a chance to say the message. Took me 30 minutes to get 2/8, doing this tactic I got 6 in a row in about 3 minutes.

Commento di 135718

Drop rate was considerably better after turning in "The Softest Wings". 25% or so.

Commento di 131770

I found that if I was able to kill the larva within ten seconds it would drop the cocoon. And that was pretty difficult even as a mage. I suggest you get someone to help if you want to get it done quick.

Commento di 59431

Something neat I discovered. You still get XP if the cocoon turns into a moth (about 800 with rested) as well as you get some XP after killing the moth itself (around 400 rested). Killing the cocoon that didn't spawn a moth gave me 1014 xp. So therefore, you get about 200 extra XP for killing both the moth and the cocoon. Pretty good considering how easy the spawned moth dies.

Commento di 131451

to my fellow MM hunters, when the cocoon starts to transform, scatter shot works magically if you dont want it to.

Commento di 158912

The faster u kill them the more chance the drop the cocoon. Also: the more u pull the better, it goes a lot faster with AoE. By the way, whoever made this damn quest is going to burn in the fiery pits of HELL!

Commento di 174016

its a good idea to take the other q "the softest wings" when you are doing this quest, because the silkwings that the mobs turns into, got a well drop rate for the "indescent wing" wich you need in the quest

Commento di 222744

Someone said that after the did The Softest Wings the cocoons had a better drop rate, it actually has a worse.

Commento di Moklar

This quest has changed in 3.x

The drop-rate is now 100%.

The same goes for "The softest wings" the drop is now 100%.

Makes these quest very fast.

Commento di Allakhazam

Easy way for Shamans with Fire Elemental:

Hit 4 or 5 of the Larvae with Melee or Lightning then let the fiery one do the Rest and heal him.
It took me two tries and then I had the cocoons.
Remember that you can only get loot if you did damage to the victim before.
n the 20 minutes CD-time I did the Quest for Raptor ribs etc.

Oh and while you're at it do the "Wings-Quest" at the same time.

Commento di Allakhazam

Wow I think this might be the worst quest I've ever played. Right up there with the Horde Ony quest chain

Commento di Allakhazam

Wow I think this might be the worst quest I've ever done. Right up there with the Horde Ony quest chain

Commento di Allakhazam

I got the cocoons before I got the wings...

Commento di Allakhazam

confirmed, if U kill the larva when it is morphing the drop rate is a LOT higher

Commento di Allakhazam

50% drop rate AT least for me, so stop the bull!@#$!

Commento di Allakhazam

Droprates on this quest makes baby jesus cry :(

Commento di Allakhazam

On this quest I got better green item drop rate then the cocoons

Commento di Allakhazam

There are tons of the larvae south of Mok'Nathal Village. I've been killing larvae for an hour now and not one has dropped...this isn't the beginning of a chain, so my advice is don't do it.

Commento di Allakhazam

Kill the larva..

//zwirc :)

Commento di Allakhazam

I'm not entirely sure of the mechanics of this, but I got a much better drop rate from the dead larva after the silkwing hatches from it. Get it down to about 30% then stop dps. Put a slow dot or something on it and it will soon say "Silkwing Larva begins to metamorph..." It will split open and a Silkwing will pop out. The larva corpse will be lootable too.

Commento di Allakhazam

This one was a grinder and a snoozer for me. Kill da bugs (the softest wings) and da slugs (silkwing cocoons) just south of town. And kill a few Vekh'nir (the stones of Vekh'nir) for a change of pace.

Commento di Allakhazam

With my hunter I got this quest done in about 15-20 mins. With beastmaster talents I slammed the pet stun when Larva was at 30% or something. If pet stun was in cooldown I used beastial wrath, trinked, racial and rabid fire at 50%. Every third larva dropped one of those cocoons.

Commento di Allakhazam

Whoever wrote this quest for wow should be slapped on the face.

Commento di Allakhazam

Insanely gay drop rate.

Commento di Allakhazam

Got first 5 cocoons from 5 mobs in row, then took over 30 to get 6th one

Commento di Allakhazam

Scatter shot them right before they begin to metamorph and they don't split.

Commento di Allakhazam

You have to kill them while they are metamophophing or whatever... some of them dont metaphorp, that means no coocoon xD

Commento di Allakhazam

One of the worst drop rates that exists in this game , however just dot it on 30% and do two quests in one. Cordinates are confirmed.

Commento di Allakhazam

I'm not sure if they've fixed drop rates here or what, but I'm getting about 90% drop rate on wings from the hatched silkwings.

As for Cocoons, it's not great but it's not that bad either. Unhatched cocoons don't drop 100% of the time. My general advice would be to stop DPSing the cocoon when it starts to "morph" -- might just be a coincidence but this seems to yield the best cocoon drop for me.

Commento di Allakhazam

This is all in the mind. The odd way that the larvae spawn the moths has you all imagining things.

There's no special mechanism to getting the cocoons, and the drop rate is not bad. Don't over-think it - just go after the larvae, kill them and any moths they spawn, and pretty quickly you will have both quests done. The cocoons can drop from larvae whether or not they spawned a moth, and when they do spawn a moth, it's likely that the moth will drop an irridescent wing when you kill it.

Commento di Allakhazam

I've figured out the trick to getting cocoons. 75% droprate for me!

DPS the larva normally, not too quickly, until it gets low. (You don't want to go too fast or it's less likely to metamorph.) Some of them don't metamorph at all.

When it metamorphs, nuke it and kill it *quick* before it splits. It'll drop a cocoon almost every time. :)

Commento di Tahuma

Quest text lies, you can still obtain Silkwing Coccoons off of the worm bodies when they complete their metamorphosis, so there's no need to plan around it. The Silkwing they spawn on death has low health and can also drop Iridescent Wing needed for their related quest, The Softest Wings (so long as you are on the quest).

Happy hunting!

Commento di Dragonfyr

100% Drop Rate way.

Start to kill the Silkwing Larva.
When they get low hp, slow down dps.
Check chat and wait for it to say 'Silkwing Larva begins to metamorphose'.
Finish killing it.

100% drop rate for me doing it that way.
And yes, just do it that way when doing the other quest, The Softest Wings. As sometimes they spawn a Silkwing.

Commento di Yakiniku

Seems to have 100% drop rate if you kill the worm while its busy metamorphosing?

Silkwing Cocoons

Collect 8 Silkwing Cocoons from Silkwing Larva.

Kill the Larva quickly or they will turn into Silkwings, ruining their cocoons.

	Silkwing Cocoon (8)

Descrizione

The silk from the cocoons of the silkwings are used for all manner of things in the village. We can never get enough, and we never have enough.

It is difficult to harvest the cocoons from the larva once they begin the process of metamorphosis.

Our warriors are occupied with the assault on our village. If you could gather these for us, that would be helpful.
