What to do
Description
Our mission in Skold-Ashil will have to wait, {class} - for now, we have more pressing matters to attend to. I had just recently arrived with reinforcements for our assault when Greymane's ship sailed in and began barraging our walls. We deployed our siege weapons, but their ground forces quickly overwhelmed us. If you can get to those catapults and take out the dogs manning the cannons, it may give us the window we need to push the attack!
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

You can click the same catapult twice if you do it immediately after the first click finishes. Only have to click on two catapults that way.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Dreadwake's Dilemma
The situation has taken a dire turn, <name>. We were unprepared for Greymane's sudden assault, with only a token force left behind at Dreadwake's Landing, and we are paying the toll.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Gift for Greymane
It looks like the Gilnean infiltrators brought some heavy ordnance to the fight. It's likely they intend to use them on the walls of Dreadwake's Landing. If these could be rigged to Greymane's ship, it could make for a decisive end to his assault on the outpost.
