TheWoWDBDid this quest in conjunction with Power! Get the Power! and discovered that you don't have to actually target a bat in order to use the item. Just use it and it will automatically grab a bat if there's one nearby - in fact, if you do have a bat targeted and another is closer, the item will grab the closer bat for you.

If you want to cap off your skinning skill or just want to farm up leather easily, delay the quest turn-in and use the fel lash at the aforementioned bridge. You never run out of spawns and can skin for as long as your sanity allows.

Description
Ah, my faithful assistant. I have just the task for you. As you have seen, fel power permeates living tissue and can easily be coaxed out. Also, these damned bats are driving me to my wits' end. There is an opportunity to kill two bats with one blade, it seems. Your blade. Take this crystal. It should rip those hellions from the sky and into your waiting arms. You may as well bring back their hides, if only to shut up that fellow in the corner for a few moments.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Black Tome
I have made a great discovery, <name>. There is a powerful warlock in the Soul Engine, in possession of a powerful tome. It contains forbidden secrets to summoning the most powerful of demons. Even the Legion is afraid to call on these fel lords, but now I possess knowledge beyond theirs.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Power! Get The Power!
I need more power. I need more! I can control the energies, and they are enough to sustain me. For now. I will not end up withered, like those weaklings. Go out into Felsoul Hold and slay the demons. Bring me their essence and make it quick!
