The mobs are on the ship below deck where you accepted the quest. To go below deck take the stairs or enter via the belly of the ship.

I was dumb, perhaps it was just the General Chat at the time but I went below the ship to the ground and then realized the NPC's I needed to slay were on the ship. Don't make the same mistake as me!

What to do

StorylineDeepholm, War & Gunships, step 40 of 57

Description

It looks like the Twilight's Hammer's still on the ship. Go below decks and take them out. Be careful, {name}. I've a feeling they're not here for a spiritual retreat, if you know what I mean.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Map coordinates of the pins above. An area the client draws as a shape is given by the centre of its points.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Without a Captain or CrewDeepholm · Level 30-35
Not sure who you're with, but you don't look like one of... them. I'm not sure what happened. I slept through supper and woke up to a ship full of dead people and murderers. Not sure if you want to kill me or not, but I'll spare you the trouble. <Moody points to a wound in his stomach.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

On Second Thought, Take One PrisonerDeepholm · Level 30-35
It's not too late, <name>. The cultists are probably still here. Go below decks, find out who's in charge and subdue them. We will obtain answers to our questions, one way or another.
