Interestingly the water serpents you have to kill for this quest can drop multiple heads. I guess that makes up for the zhevras without hooves.

Comment by darksoul019

One of those quests where apparently while they able to bite you they dont have heads, they also drop fangs, which appreantly arent part of a head. Killed around about 25 of these for the 6 heads, sad really blizzard still adopts farming quests like these.

While it's not a mistake everyone will make, be sure you're actually in the water when you attack these things otherwise they have a terrible habit of <evade>.

Took me a while to figure this out >.>

This was nicely parodied by Dark Legacy Comics in the "Brains" episode.

Wowhead says the Murkscale Head head is a 45% drop rate - was 6/15 (or 40%) when I just did it.

Murk heads, murk heads, icky squicky murk heads,
Murk heads, murk heads, farm them up, yeah!

Comment by Xiberion

First horde quest we accept from an alliance? Even though he is flagged as friendly.
Also not all snakes have heads. qq

Krassarang is a terrible place to quest. Go elsewhere. You will turn into an alchoholic dog-kicking wife-beating monster if you quest here. The developers who made this were obnoxious jerks. Go elsewhere.

Comment by LawrenceToo

I hate "body part" quests and usually just drop them if they seem to have a low drop rate as this one does. So after getting one head in 4 or 5 kills I did just that. Then after an hour or so of questing I found, although I had done no Red Crane Temple quests, I had no more quests for Krasarang. Could it be that the only way Blizzard can get people to suffer through these really incredibly stupid quests is to make them required to complete a long quest chain? Well I'm not going to do this quest to find out. Off to another area to get to 87 and higher altitudes.

<edit> I changed my mind and went ahead and did the quest. Killed 17 to get 6 heads and the follow on quests. 88,000XPs for kills and 17 leather. 35 minutes.

Oddly enough, murkscales don't have a poison attack, yet we are sent on a quest to get their venom because they have been poisoning the locals. Puzzlement.

Comment by 610726

No idea if it was a looting quirk of this quest or just how the RNG worked, but after doing this on a few ranged toons, I noticed that the heads seemed to drop more often when I killed and looted them one at a time, rather than killing a few of them before looting.

Comment by WoWGnGP

I made i playthrough of this quest if anyone wish to see how to do it :)

The Murksweats

Gather 6 Murkscale Heads from Murkscale Strikers in Krasarang River.

	Murkscale Head (6)

Description

Take a good look. The river nearby is swarming with these snakes. Their venom causes a condition the locals call "the murksweats."

Several refugees were bitten as they fled the temple and have already begun to show symptoms: nausea, vomiting, and intense sweating as the body rejects all fluids, causing dehydration and potentially death.

We are administering anti-venom as quickly as possible, but we'll need more venom glands. Don't bother removing the glands yourself - just bring back the whole head.
