i found that even though the strikers have a higher drop rate they tend to not drop anything a lot more and so that puts the drop rate off quite a bit,where as the crushers dropped something everytime making it quicker to get the meat

Kommentar von madslane

Crushers have this annoying knockdown/dropped weapon move. But other than taht easy to kill. Drop rate for both is horrid. About 40 kills and only have 8.

Kommentar von Dorkfish

I think the drop rate on the Striker is nerfed. I killed 24 and had 3 drop. On the Crushers I killed 18 and had 5 drop.

That would make the Striker a 12% drop rate and the Crusher a 28% drop rate

Kommentar von Burr

Farm the level 55 Dredge Strikers to the NE of the hold.

Kommentar von Suhov

Take this quest while you will farm this meat: http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=8280

Drop rate of meat for me looks like around 15-20%. High drop on WoWhead is a site bug so it don't count a loot then mob drop nothing at all.

Kommentar von 190696

I finally got cooking to 300 farming these worms for around 25 minutes and getting the 12 I needed.

Kommentar von 181714

not bad i had a 15 min food buff and had 13 when it ended

Kommentar von Caras

Drop rate as bad as ever. Killed ~55 on my 70 DK and only 7 dropped. Had MUCh better luck with Strikers than Crushers (killed 15 Crushers, got 1 drop).

Kommentar von Ferlathin

Droprate can't be that bad. Just got 8 in 9 minutes.

Kommentar von funkymillah

Horrible drop rate. Buy em off the AH if you see them. The worst part is they are scattered all over the map and die in 1 hit. So its, kill 1, loot, 3 sec mount, kill, repeat.

Kommentar von 275627

Just did this cooking quest en route to 325 for the Holiday Achievement. Did the 2 "Kill 15 Striker's/20 Crusher's" Quests. After 39 kills I had 17 meat, enough to get me to 300 and Ravager Dogs. Drop rate was 43.6% total. (Striker's seemed slightly higher than Crusher's)

Kommentar von 172894

LOL at you guys.. this is sooo easy ! I got 5 in 2 minutes of farming ! Start from Cenarion Hold, then go to Staghelm Point them come back and you're DONE!

Kommentar von 79984

Took me about 30 minutes to farm 15 of them off of Strikers.

Kommentar von 168133

drop rate wowhead mentions is fail
its more like 10%
in 66 kills got 6 meats

Kommentar von Shutnik

well i was farming today for the same meat and it took me about 10 mins to get 14 meat was just enough for getting 300 cooking

Kommentar von 288568

Well I have been farming these mats for a good half hour and only got 12 so far.
So in my exp. this drop rate is not at all 39%

Kommentar von 47813

It took me 22 minutes to get 15 of these, from the Strikers.
Worse than the Giant Eggs from the Owlbears in Hinterlands...

Also got a green from a rare (Krellack) and a Star Ruby.

Kommentar von 206653

I killed about 15 and got 10 meats.

Kommentar von VioletDidi

Could be coincident, but I had a MUCH better drop rate from strikers north-east of Cenarion Hold than the ones south west of it.
I spent 2 hours getting 12 pieces at the SW area and then went NE and got 3 out of 4 kills.

Kommentar von 111373

Maybe I was lucky, or maybe the drop rate has increased (v3.1.2), but I got 15 pieces of meat from 27 kills, slightly more than 50% chance.

Kommentar von MisterRik

Good grief, this stuff has a worse drop rate than Goretusk Livers!

Kommentar von Voltrox

About a 15% drop rate unfortunately but its still a lot better then grinding your fishing in order to get to the elusive 300 cooking.

Kommentar von chaosKahn

I got incredibly lucky. 11 meat in about 12 minutes.

Definitely go for the Crushers first... they dropped one almost every time for me.

Kommentar von 454383

........wow this SUCKS! lol 34min into farming these, only got 3.......

Kommentar von Tabmoc

The mobs that drop them are not skinnable, unfortunately.

Kommentar von 321609

After about 15 minutes of killing Strikers, I have the following:
9 Sandworm Meat
19 Gelatinous Goo
6 Slimy Ichor

Either I have good luck for the first time in ages, or everyone else has bad luck.

Kommentar von 141922

The drop rate is horrible. This is as bad as the cooking quest in Darkshore.

Kommentar von Frolik

i got the quest today and my drop rate wasnt bad at all, maybe i was VERY lucky, but i killed around 30 worms to get the 15 pieces i needed

(10 for the quest and 5 to get cooking to 300)

Kommentar von adzicents

I needed 7 of these to hit 300 after buying 8 from AH, killed 23 Strikers. Buy from AH if you can, really helps, only cost me about 3g on my server.

Kommentar von Snagrat

The drop rate sucks balls. I farmed the strikers for 20 mins and not one dropped. WTF?

Kommentar von 438183

These quests that are strung out via crap loot drops are completely lame and lazy quest design on the part of Blizzard. Everything you do in a game should be a challenge, not a chore. I have this vision of a really &*!@ed off Blizzard employee doing quest design whose had @#$% time during the past working week, it's Friday and he just wants to go home but he has to finish off his quest quota, so he slaps together this kind of trash All quests like this do is frustrate, not entertain.

I certainly hope Blizzard has evolved past this kind of crap and we won't see any more of this lazy 'rinse-repeat' grind quest design in any future patches...certainly not Cataclysm. Hopefully Blizzard can truly surprise us with new game mechanics in Catsclysm and won't be 'resting on their laurels', churning out the same tired old rubbish we've seen with only a few interesting twists and turns to quests.

Kommentar von 596740

I sold these for 4g ea. on my server yesterday. Is that the common price for these?

Kommentar von jfoobar

After killing 29 sandworms in Silithus, including a mix of both strikers and crushers, and getting ONE friggin' meat drop, I checked the AH and there was someone selling 10 for 3g. Thank God.

Seriously Blizz, this is one of the very few ways that you can even get to 300 cooking now and they used to drop 30% of the time or so. What gives?

Kommentar von NeoJester

Decided to level cooking on my hunter alt and ran into this recipe as my only option other than grinding dire maul for another recipe that is the other I found that might be easier for some http://www.wowhead.com/item=18267#teaches-recipe

So I went out and grinded worms and from my observation I think they might have either changed the drop rate or I got extremely lucky. I was getting meat every 3 to 4 kills. Sometimes less kills than that. I went in for the long haul and came out fine in about 20 minutes or so.

TLDR: Don't like the idea for farming worm meat, go for this other recipe and grind Dire Maul http://www.wowhead.com/item=18267#teaches-recipe

Kommentar von Innuendo

They have changed the Dredge Worms in Silithus to always drop something now, so indeed ~40% of the time you will get Sandworm Meat.

Kommentar von 639420

Killed 22 strikers, no meat.

Killed 14 crushers, 7 meats.

Maybe it's just my luck, but I think the crushers have a higher droprate..

Kommentar von mewmewface

i hate hate this quest, and the meat never seen in ah

Kommentar von Skyrixx

All you questers and cookers when you do this quest/cooking level FORGET THAT THE STRIKERS EXIST. If you see one just walk away, they will do you absolutely no good except fill you bags with junk. The Dredge Crushers is where it's at. After spending about half an hour farming these on a level 85 Paladin I walked away with:
15 Sandworm Meat (only for cooking 285-300, I did not do the quest)
37 Broken Weapon
15 Brittle Skull
1 Stout War Staff (Gray Item)
3 Oozing Bag: which gave me a small amount of currency, 2 Greater Mana Potion, and 3 Greater Healing Potion.

Also for you leather crazed skinners these babies ARE skinnable. :)

Kommentar von twenty0ne

Maybe I was lucky as well, but I was able to farm these for about 10-15 minutes and got the required 15 to get to the next cooking level. I had relatively equal luck with both the strikers and crushers.

Kommentar von 466062

Either lucky or they have upped the drop rate I had a better than 50% drop in twilight post / base camp area

Kommentar von Macdougal

For those of you farming this for cooking, remember that you can get from 275 to 300 by cooking fish as well. Lobster Stew, Baked Salmon or Mightfish Steak are all red all the way to 300, check the AH or hike out to Blasted Lands and level your fishing a bit too. I did this quest on a couple of my toons and vowed to never do it again.

Kommentar von Thaonnor

As of 4.3, I'm having better luck with Crushers. I seem to be getting a lot less than 50% suggested by some, 37% sounds closer.

Kommentar von 993554

I've not had a problem with the drop of the meat - shocked as I am, however, I cant get the recipe? Is it a drop thing or a quest? I've completed the quests for this place, so now what?

Kommentar von 993554

I've done both quests, and have about 14 meat - but I have no way to cook them - I have no recipe. I remember when my hunter went through here, she got it from the Innkeeper to make "Dumplings" but the Innkeeper has nothing in the area of a quest.

Is it me or is it just friggin annoying that you do the first 15, then you're told to do another 20? Why can't they be given as TWO, and you can go from one beast for the 15 to the second for the 20? That is a downside to this game, the running back and forth a lot - especially when the running is to another NPC around the corner.

Maybe I'm just a grumpy old woman?

Kommentar von martanius

If is there a bug so for addon users chance to drop is 1 in 7 tryes.

So drop count is 39325 in 262173 (its 15%)

Kommentar von 825231

As I was farming for the meat, I clocked how many meats I got from each species in 5 minutes. From the crushers I got 5 meats and in 5 minutes I got 11 meats from the strikers. However, the strikers seem to have a longer respawn period, because for the last 3 minutes I flew around there respawn area and couldn't find one, where the crushers respawn quickly. My suggestion is to kill all the strikers and while you wait for them to spawn, farm the crushers.

Kommentar von LiriellGarrosh

While I was leveling cooking, I came to the section that includes Sandworm Meat and its recipe. After about a half hour (on a level 70 rogue; would probably take longer on a lower level toon) I got enough meat to get me through to the next section of cooking. Counting the number of skins I have in my bags (after starting with none) I killed 44 Sandworms and got 15 Sandworm Meat.

It's possible that I just got really lucky, or Blizz decided to increase the drop chance. Still, the drop rate feels too low.

Kommentar von R1p0ne0ut

Sorry to necro this thread, but it appears the drop rate of the worm eat was increased. Maybe I just got lucky, but I got about one meat every third kill. Literally took less than 10 min to farm up enough to go from 285 to 300 classic cooking.

Kommentar von 2343249

A funny thing happened. I came to Silithus with my level 20 priest, killed a bunch of sandworms, the bigger ones in south. Almost every single one of them dropped Sandworm Meat and I was done pretty fast.
Then I came to the same place with my level 39 hunter... and 4 out of 5 worms dropped only Decomposed Boots. Both characters were in Cataclysm Chromie time and selected "past Silithus" by Zidormi.
