i believe we see this quest for the first time, at least in the usa, today with the reset and new assault. i dont believe it grants access to complete any additional progress towards the meta achievement, other than simply completion of the quest itself.

After accepting the quest from Niya, pick up the Angry Needler Nest hanging from the archway directly behind her. Follow the river of souls to find Gkeca, Throgtu and Duarri. Target the NPC use the Angry Needler Nest then kill the NPC.

This quest completes the requirement for ~~"Needless Needlers"~~ "That's Going to Sting" under the Rooting Out the Evil achievement.

EDIT: The meta text was changed from "Needless Needlers" in 9.1 to "That's Going to Sting" in 9.1.5 due to confusion of the quest being named the latter.

Comment by BlinkyDrakkin

I was a bit confused on the locations of the mobs until I realized that you don't actually kill them, they instead get carried off by angry needlers after fighting them, so if someone has fought them recently, there's no corpse to indicate where they spawn. To help with that, here are their precise coordinates:

Throgtu is at 20.9, 52.5
Gkeca is at 17.3, 55
Duarri is at 26, 47.6

So just like the other night fae assault quests which require mucking around with items, the bug caller for this quest cannot be used in feral forms if you're a druid, so it will pull you into caster form the moment you attempt to use it. I thought we were beyond this...

If you don't turn in The Soul Blade quest before doing, this, you can use the extra button to do a ton of damage after applying the debuff

Description

<Niya speaks loudly to be heard over the buzzing coming from the collection of needler nests behind her.> I've caught Moonberry trying to steal these nests for her pranks over ten times already! The other faeries said I was crazy to bring the needlers out here. Too wild! Too unpredictable! But that's exactly why we need them. Lord Herne's scouts report powerful Heralds among our enemy's forces. Take one of these nests, and use it to surprise the Heralds!
