I'm not totally sure how, but I ended up killing this guy and not getting my debt. In case the same thing happens to you, "Silvermoon" Harry is supposed to turn friendly once more at a low % of health. He'll say, "I'll pay! I'll pay! Eeeek! Please don't hurt me!" and stop attacking. Talk to him once more and use the chat option to obtain your payment.

I guess moral of the story is, don't use high critting attacks that one or two shot our friend Harry. (He respawns quickly though!)

Did anyone else notice the quest clearly states "If you're interested in collecting some coin on my behalf, I'd be willing to give you a cut." and on the completion page, it says "Alright, here's your cut." or something to that extent, yet it yields no gold reward unless you're level 80?

Description

I heard you did a little work for Terry. I was hoping someone reliable would show up around these parts. See, pirates love to gamble. They, however, do not love to pay their gambling debt. If you're interested in collecting some coin on my behalf, I'd be willing to give you a cut. Let's start you out with an easy one. "Silvermoon" Harry's a bit of an eccentric, keeps all sorts of expensive blood elf knickknacks inside his tent - yet when I see him he always pretends to be broke. Get my gold.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Ancient Armor of the KvaldirHowling Fjord · Level 10-30

    I was on the vessel that was bringing in the armor. We'd just boarded the ship and were headin' back here when we were attacked by a Forsaken destroyer. They boarded our ship, took all the booty for themselves, and then sunk her. That was the last I'd seen of that armor.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Fragrance of MoneyHowling Fjord · Level 10-30

    Us pirates are known for many things, but hygiene isn't one of them. Most pirate ships be carrying five or six times as many rats as people. It's no wonder all the bears on this island caught the rabies soon after we moved in. Long story short, the boss wants 'em all dead.
