TheWoWDBSo... how the f*ck do you get these things out of the sky? I wouldn't mind doing the quest, but I have no way of bringing them down unless I get lucky and one flies within range for a few seconds.

A World of Warcraft quest in Nazjatar. Facts and objectives from the current retail game data.
The highest voted Wowhead comments for this page. They are community notes, not TheWoWDB comments.
Note that [npc=150376] works as well, so a tip is to either kill these (there are plenty around 55:50), or, even better, kill [npc=150696]. When one such is pulled, several [npc=150376] either joins or spawns.
Nar'anan is also a decent spot for this quest, coords around 69.9, 50.2.

The fathom ray population is eating all of the coral buds to the east. If we do not cull their numbers, we may have an environmental catastrophe on our hands. Once you have finished, report to the quartermaster to claim your reward.
