W'dhovaka, a Skylift operator, is looking for someone to assist with her megalocrab woes.

— In-game description

Rewards

• 23   Ice Shard

Steps

• Slay megalocrabs.

• Report to W'dhovaka at the Skylift.

Journal

• W'dhovaka, a Skylift operator, is looking for someone to assist with her megalocrab woes.

• Each time a balloon envelope is ruined, it reduces the amount of cargo the Skylift operation can transport. Slay five megalocrabs and help keep the crates moving.

• You have slain the megalocrabs. Return to the Skylift and report to W'dhovaka.

• Thanks to your shell-cracking efforts, the balloon envelopes are safe from marauding megalocrabs for a time. With the demand for cargo transport ever growing, however, a more permanent solution to the problem seems in order.

Dialogue

Accepting the Quest

W'dhovaka: Ah, for the love o' Llymlaen, not again! The leather's ripped to bloody shreds! Hm? No, there's naught awry with me breeches, ye cheeky sod.
W'dhovaka: It's the megalocrabs—they've been at the balloon envelopes I left out to dry on the rocks. Those hells-spawned snippers think they've found a squid or somethin' an' set to nibblin'.
W'dhovaka: Less balloons in the air means less cargo gettin' lifted, an' that don't sit too well with me. Ye lookin' for a quick job? How 'bout ye crack a few shells afore ye head off on yer way? If ye could put down five or so o' the buggers, that ought to do for now.

Optional Dialogue

W'dhovaka: That cliff face there is known as the Descent, an' it weren't around afore the Calamity.
W'dhovaka: Used to be ye could drive a wagon straight down the road, but now... Well, now we got to make use o' this great bloody scaffoldin' to haul goods up an' down. Damn nuisance, it is.

Reporting to W'dhovaka

W'dhovaka: Ye take care o' them snippers? Good bloody riddance! Nice work there, lad/lass.
W'dhovaka: Still it won't be long afore a new crew o' crabs comes sidlin' in to claim that territory. And our loads just keep gettin' heavier, what with all the rebuildin' going on. If I don't want to be buried under a mountain o' crates, I'd best think of a more lastin' solution to this snipper problem.
