Once you know where the key mobs are it's not so bad.

1. The mobs spawn continuously on deck. Just kill the 10 regular mobs that you need.
2. You only need to go below deck ONCE and only one level. The admiral or whatever his name is is in the topmost cabin of the ship (climb up two levels above main deck)). The chef is right below him (i.e., one level above main deck). The sister is right below deck. Walk down into the opening where mobs are spawning, and immediately turn left. She's in that room.

All in all, you never have to walk deep into the ship and fight all the millions of mobs there.

Targets are difficult to find and the ship is extremely crowded with mobs.

Mobs spawn suddenly from nowhere and run onto the top deck. They seem to aggro from other decks, which means you'll definitely get swarmed inside the ship.

The graveyard is over 500 yards away on land, which means you have to rez in the water and use the ladder to get back on the ship.

All in all, this is terrible. I wouldn't even bother with this quest tbh.

Where to go
