Murlocs are at 34, 11
As a Mage on the quest Control (http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=9595), I found this quest difficult. Whenever I killed a murloc, using Magic, the Wraith showed up, and killed me. My recommendation is to either hope and pray the wraith doesn't show up, or Polymorph one of the murlocs and then take the grain.

Description
These are dark days, Promised One. Even the murlocs are kicking our tails - literally. Unfortunately, more than just my ego has been bruised. While our relationship with the Siltfin murlocs had always been tenuous, never could we have imagined that they would have the gall to attack us and steal from our food stores! Travel west to the Silting Shore and recover our stolen food-stuffs! And if you see a dark-skinned murloc with a patch of white fur stuck in between his webbed toes...
