Walkthrough & Notes

The reference in Background to the destination of the sailing voyage being Halrax, seems at odds with other parts of the quest, although this inconsistency has no bearing on the mission's objectives or mechanics. Wounded Crew-members and Corsairs, appear on all 3 levels of the ship: the lowest, middle and top decks. There are stealthed Corsair Cutthroats roaming the ship. In addition to the Wounded Crew-members, which have quest rings and are interactable, there are also Khâlbina Crew-members, which are purely decorative, and which do not assist with combat. The boss spawns on the top deck of the ship, regardless of where the player character is when finishing Objective 1. Due to U38.1.1 Delvings are removed from this mission.

Rewards
Silver coins (level dependent) Legendary Item Experience (not for all levels it seems)  Modest gift of Ûri  Eagle Bit  Ledger-keeper Mark
