There is little scouts that are green on the ledges at around (38.56)
Use the ammos in your inventory and target the npcs with it.

Took me a while to figure that out.
That's it.

Comment by draugys

Well look for npc Alliance Lookout. Either they riding sea horses, either standing on building edges. I uploaded screens how they look.

Comment by 274068

Alliance lookouts are around (35,75) they are kind of hard to see as they blend in really well.

Comment by crazyxxxinsane

would be nice if it was a lil better explained on the area saying UNDER the terrace, when its really not under it, its around areas on platforms near the area... sheesh and it doesnt say what u have to actually do at all.. sheesh had to figure out u have to click on a person up on a ledge and then it will let you restock the PERSON.

Comment by fluxdada

For alliance look near 30.42, 69.77

If your coming out of the dry quest room go up and directly to your right. Look on the ledges.

Comment by penpen002

They are super hard to see. I found the Alliance ones adjacent to the Horde flag riding seahorses (stationed) on the bottom level near the reefs. (36.4, 72.5). They are also running around up on the walls.

The Horde are up along the wall adjacent to the Alliance entrance.

Here's a tip! If you're doing the quest: Properly Inspired. You'll see them more easily because you're hunting for bloated kelp bulbs.

Comment by Phoenixsong

Pressing Shift+V to show nameplates and swimming around the ledges (the ones that are at the same height as the highest tip of the large tube worm outside of the quest room) on the walls and columns makes this quest a breeze.

Comment by Merkel

Swim around the immediate area, and find Alliance Lookout men on their seahorses or standing on the second level of surrounding structures. Select them and use the Box of Crossbow Bolts in your inventory.

YOU ARE SOMEWHAT PREPARED!

Comment by Bergelmir

Also worth mentioning that they will "reset" after about a minute (the "Restock ammo" buff will disappear), so you can just supply the four that are standing on the pillar (35.8, 76.7). There's one on a seahorse, and three standing on the ledge.

That's for alliance.

Comment by dlevine999

Like some others, I found these guys very hard to find. The following target macro helps a lot.

/cleartarget
/tar alliance lookout
/script SetRaidTarget("target",1)

Even with this macro you will have to bob up and down as the lookouts are at different heights (depths?).

Comment by torquezzz

As you are leaving the room with air where you got the quest, just go straight out and up a little bit to the ledges of the pillars straigth ahead. Click the guys and then click the quest item, you'll find the bulbs there as well.

Description

I overheard your conversation with the Admiral. I know what we're doing sounds insane, but we really don't have much choice. There are people back at that cave that are depending on us.

I've stationed lookouts on various ledges in the immediate area. They're burning ammo fast on the scattered naga scouts. Can you bring them more crossbow bolts to buy us some extra time?
