For some strange reason ghosts around Largo's Overlook have a rather small aggro radius. With some sneaky movement you can loot several cannonball stacks without aggro-ing any mobs in the process. Makes this daily that much faster.

Not in Stratholme. You are simply in the tower before climbing the ramp.
Transleted to Portuguese
Não está em stratholme. Está simplesmente na torre antes da subida da rampa.
I have a couple problems with this quest.
Aside from the fact that it seems unlikely that my tiny blood elf female could carry that many cannonballs, this quest presents a rather confusing linguistic puzzle.
I assume most of us keep the stacks of cannonballs in one stack in our inventory. They're automatically put in that way, and separating them just takes up space. Which leads to the confusing question, what makes that one stack of stacks four stacks rather than one big stack? I feel like someone gave me a quest to dig four half-holes.

Description
Largo and his minions have been stealing our supplies ever since we setup camp here. It's frustrating to say the least. We have heard reports that he is stockpiling cannonballs in the towers overlooking the water up on his overlook. Can you head up there and try to recover some of them for us? {name}, don't forget to keep a watch out for Alliance too.
