You need to kill Glimmershell Hulk and Glimmershell Crabs in order to loot Hefty Glimmershell that will enable you to plug steam vents.

There is a Glimmershell Hulk at several places.

/way 49 51 Glimmershell Hulk
/way 47 52 Glimmershell Hulk
/way 45 48 Glimmershell Hulk
/way 42 47 Glimmershell Hulk (2 of them)

This is tedious. For no reason, storm elementals roam this riverbed, so you're constantly getting attached while trying to find one of like 5 of these yellow critters that drop the right shell. You'll think from the quest description you have to kill the elites - you don't. You may also think you have to pick up or kill the tiny critters, wrong again. You're looking for the not-well-placed-because-there-aren't-enough spawns of the Glimmershell Crab (not the Glimmershell Crawler or the Glimmershell Hulk). The Hulks drop them too, but don't waste your time unless you have to. The Crawlers do NOT drop them. But you'lll spend 75% of the time on this quest killing - for NO reason - Volatile Tide Surgers that are in your way and don't belong there. Have fun slogging through!

Im convinced the developers are in competition with each other to come up with the most annoying WQ scenarios possible... this one qualifies.

How complete Una situazione fumante:

1. go to /way 46,95, 55,42
2. kill Crostaceo Brillaguscio or Colosso Brillaguscio to get 8x Brillaguscio Massiccio (Crostaceo Brillaguscio is more faster)
3. plug 8x Steam Fissure Fessura di Vapore around /way 48,37, 51,98

Terrible terrible quest. You have to kill the elite crabs for guaranteed shell drops to plug the vents. The non-elites seem to drop the shell too but only rarely.

Then, try and find the vents! You'll need 8 shells and vents, which you'll find out is a lot.

Commento di Xuphorian

Can also confirm that upon death, you will lose all the looted Hefty Glimmershell's, that you have collected.

~ Yup.

It also seems that plugging a steam vent consumes all of the shells that you have in your inventory. I collected x8 shells, and they were all gone after plugging the first vent. I confirmed this again by collecting 3 shells before plugging the second vent, which consumed all 3. Not sure if it's a bug or not, but tedious and annoying in any case.

Commento di DruceWoW

Note that when you do get knocked up by the fissures you get a buff that you can right click to dismiss so you fall faster

Commento di Devious05

I usually skip this quest but on killing some crabs today I got 4 shells from 6 mobs. So this quest appears to have been fixed and is viable to do again

The geyser quests

Just to be clear, for the World Quest Una situazione fumante you have to kill the snails with the big swirly shells - not the elementals. Why? The snails drop their shells (Brillaguscio Massiccios) and you use them to plug the geyser holes (one shell per geyser). Easiest to place a Brillaguscio Massiccio just after the geyser stops spouting water.

The large elite Colosso Brillaguscios usually drop multiple Brillaguscio Massiccios. The small Crostaceo Brillaguscios can drop one. To stay alive pair up with whoever is nearby to fight an elite.

There is also a Combat Ally Quest called Tappare i geyser. Geysers erupt in one of five locations. The quest giver provides a handy sealant that appears on screen next to the quest description. There's enough sealant to plug all the geysers.

Commento di setari

There's a level above where the geysers are that contain the crabs needed without enemies around, before you go down the ramp to the geysers.

Commento di Grumpz

I found this quest tougher than average, you need to kill glimmershell crabs to get the 8 quest items needed to plug the geysers which are not 100% drop, the elite crabs generally drop the qitem every time (from my experience) however in amongst the quest mobs there are volatile tide surgers which are just annoying. Rewarded with 414AP for the trouble... wont bother next time. /shrug . As a comparison i got 514 AP from the "runelocked chest" up quest at the same, much more fun take less than half the time compared.

Commento di 2p1k3

If the quest is available, do "Scrying Stones" as it makes all the shells aggro onto you every time you uncover and collect one of the treasure chests...

The pools up the mountain respawn the litter buggers relatively quickly for me... maybe for you too.

The pools at the bottom with the raging elementals have more "steam vents" to plug.

So when you have 8 Heft shells from up top, go down below and plug however many vents the quest has left, suggest do I.

Commento di epicbread

I found the best place to farm the crabs is to the south up on the higher ground east of Mezzamere where Braxicus spawns around 44, 53. There are none of the surgers and you can collect all your shells before going to the fissures. Hope this helps!

75 rep? Not worth the time...
