The cages you need to click on to release the rylak are set out along the beach not far from where you will likely see battleships docked. To me, the "cages" looked more like large glowing bear traps with upward turned spikes on the bottoms.

Now you can get You Have Been Rylakinated! achievement. (Demo Video)

After this quest you can loot [item=116978] from [npc=78148] or [npc=78999] or [npc=78339]. The best way is to do it early in the morning or when Assault on Darktide Roost is not daily of the day, because people will kill all the [npc=85357] and it will be hard to get 10 of them in 3 mins. Or just try to use low-pop server.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Dirty RatsLevel 40

    These shredders are more of a hassle than I expected. I've been peering through the eyes of the rats on the island. There are number of unmanned shredders west of here. The rats have an uncontrollable appetite for this bait.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Downsizing the DarktideLevel 40

    This pathetic excuse for life sold out all of his companions. All it took was a little squeeze of the neck. Find the leaders of this operation and bring me their heads. Haratha will accompany you on your quest.
