Unexploded Artillery Shell - on the ground near the southern part of the wreck (56.7, 76.4).
Slain Cannoneer - on the ground between the two halves of the wreck (56.1, 74.2).
Captain Skullshatter - inside the quarters on the northern part of the wreck (53.5, 73.8)

Map here.

The First Clue is inside the wrecked ship. Dont go looking at the open field.

Comment by Sweetscot

Note that the ship is in 2 halves, the first clue is in the back half of the ship(the part that has the horde symbol shape)! I only saw the front half and ran all over it looking for a chamber :)

Comment by 728394

The 2nd clue is on a body between both halfs of the ship, kind of off to the side.

There is a ramp to go up to the cabin from outside. The location of the ramp is around 54,73

Don't rely on the marker on your minimap - they threw me off track. These coords are right.

Comment by 139938

Do this quest with The Earth Claims All since the mobs you need are in the same area.

Guys, don't forget. When he says "The capitain log lie nearby", it really means it. And the log give you a quest. Don't forget to pick this one up

Really thanks to all who showed where the clues was! Big TY!

Comment by Takata

I'll try and explain for those who don't have coords. If you fly to the broken ship, you'll most likely land near the "southern" part, as at the base of that part is where the first part of the clues is and easiest to spot, "unexploded Artillery Shell" It will be "glowing" as the other parts are. From there, turn around to your left slowly. You will notice flames all around you, stop turning as you spot the other half of the ship. More or less in a similar spot, you should see the "glowing" item marked "Slain Cannoneer" which is the second clue. After getting that one, fly up to the top of the ship and get into the small room where you'll see the slain captain and a pick up quest, Captain's log. Pick them both up and your done! Hope this helps!

Wow, the comments about the 1st clue are full of it. It is NOT in the back half of the ship, as sweetscott says, it is in the FRONT half doh. The back half has the rocket exhausts at the tail end. The front is the smaller piece. The captains cabin does NOT have a ramp to it from the ground. The opening is easy to spot, just face that half of the ship from where it broke in 2, and see the big opening on the 2nd story; just fly right inside. Can't miss it. It's one room, clue is inside on the left. Wow, doh.

Comment by digitalutopia1

Most likely a reference, if in title only, to the classic children's story "Watership Down" by Richard Adams.

Comment by 100467

Another try:

The ship is in three parts - the gasbag, the front half, and the back half

Clues 2 & 3 are near the broken end of the front half.

Clue 1 is in the back half. If you're near the first two clues, the back half is to the SSE. Its as if the ship was pulled in half, and the two parts put down still aligned, with a big gap in the
middle.

On top of the back half is a huge Horde symbol. The entrance to the captain's cabin (where
the clue is) is through the center of that symbol.

If you have coords, that door is at 54.07, 73.94

OK?

Comment by HazelNutty

The new 'outline mode' for seeing quest objectives is less than helpful for this particular quest, especially with all the smoke around. If you're having a hard time finding the clues, I recommend Interface>Display> Outline Mode and disabling it, at least for this one. The sparkles are very obvious on the clues and makes spotting them a lot easier!

The markers for the quest are completely wrong for Clue 1. Better off checking youtube.

Comment by artenesse

There is a clue *right* next to where you pick up the quest inside the cabin. Spent ages looking and it was *right* there.

Comment by Grinevere

If you accepted the Captain's Log, but did not get credit for the First Clue, delete the quest for the Log. Go back to where you got the log (look for the exclamation mark) and click the dead captain beside the log BEFORE clicking the log.

Comment by Taraezor

Look at the screenshot by Cristalit. He/she has marked the three locations. That one screenshot says it all.

I have looked through the ton of "deleted" posts for this quest. Some were spot on, even mentioning Cristalit's screenshot.

Comment by tazdiva2017

Thanks so much for the location of the Captain's CORPSE! You are so right! I ignored the corpse when I picked up the log!
