Managed to finish the ectoplasm part of the quest using 8 rocket fuels. It would have been 7 except I forgot you had to stay within range of the gizmo. The Sithilus ones are definately the trickiest because of the damn bugs spawns. IMHO unless you have some heals, this part will chew through your rocket fuel really quickly since you'll have a bit of downtime every one to two pulls.
I found the ones in winterspring really easy and was able to get 9 ectoplasms with one rocket fuel. :D For the ones in Eastern Plaguelands, if you head to Northdale you can gather them pretty quickly, since all the undead there drop the stuff. A tremor totem or fear ward would have been really nice here as I lost quite a bit of time due to the constant fears. :angry:
Like I said before, if you're going to do any of this solo and don't have heals, I'd strongly recommend stocking up on bandages before you go to minimize downtime in between pulls.
PS. If you're after ironweb spider silk for the converter, I've found the plague lurkers in WPL have a pretty good drop rate.
edit. Forgot to add: the wiki guide recommends you grab the Fel Elemental Rod while you're collecting ectoplasm in Winterspring. I strongly agree. There's an insane amount of flying around involved in this quest, and anything that cuts some of that down is greatly appreciated. Thank god for my ultrasafe transporter. :)
