TheWoWDBThis wasn't obvious to me a first: The shark automatically moves forward and your job is to direct the movement of the shark into the murlocs so you can eat them..
Since there were no vehicle buttons except "Exit" I thought, like other vehicle quests, that I have to wait till I get to the designated area to get extra buttons to push. When the shark moved out of the quest area it reset me back to the fort. This happened twice so I came here to see if the quest was bugged. It's not bugged. I'm sure I'm not the only one who didn't figure this out immediately.

Quest incomplete unless you sing "you're a shark do do do do do do"
This quest is bugged. When I finished, which took less than 20 seconds, I wasn't teleported back - I was just suddenly there in the water with my character. So I had to swim back and get through all the masses of naga to get back again. This makes it from a quick, easy quest to one of the worst quests ever. Fix pls

Have you ever been bitten by a shark? I have, numerous times. It stings. Murlocs don't usually survive shark attacks. The ritual I had in mind is ready to cast. Let me know when you're prepared.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Reclaiming our Defenses
We were holding off the naga up until the latest attack. A few of our forces are still out there. The tidemaidens seem to be slowly torturing them to death. If you could save as many as you can find, we'd be one step closer to gaining the upper ground again.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Any Ammo Will Do
I'll have some men move some cannons down to the sea wall in preparation of whatever ritual is going on down in that delta. We could use some extra ammo before we spread ourselves too thin though. Luckily, those naga harpoons work well enough with our mortars.
