Pink Elekks On Parade
Visit the beer gardens outside Stormwind, Darnassus, and the Exodar, zap three elekks at each location, and return to Goldark Snipehunter. You must be wearing Synthebrew Goggles to see the pink elekks.
Objectives
- Elekk Dispersion Ray (Provided)
Description
Getting drunk is a time-honored tradition at Brewfest -- it's damn near required! Thing is, I'm getting reports across Azeroth saying the celebration's plagued by hallucinations! We can't have that!
These elekks can't be harmed by normal weapons -- they pass right through 'em -- so take this fabulous piece of gnomish machinery, visit the other beer gardens, and zap 'em to oblivion.
Remember, you have to be wearing Synthebrew Goggles to see 'em! Talk to me if you need a pair.
Rewards
You will also receive:
Just in case it isn't obvious, this quest is for the Alliance players. For Horde players, see Pink Elekks On Parade.
To zap the pink elekks, simply target them and use the provided quest item. The most time-consuming part of the quest is the traveling time.
Pro tip: An interesting and simple bug with the quest item allows you to save time from running around in order to get in range of a pink elekk. Target a pink elekk that is within range, use the Elekk Dispersion Ray - and while it is channeling Elekk Dispersion Ray - quickly target another pink elekk that is further away. No matter how distant, the second elekk is the one which will dissipate. :) (Disclaimer: Hasn't been fixed in years, but there is no guarantee that it won't be fixed for Brewfest this year.)It is fixed.Trivia: Elekks are essentially WoW's elephants, and "seeing pink elephants" is a euphemism for drunken hallucinations.
