Rather confused now, this worked just fine when I had my DK along for
the ride, but doesn't work at all solo, and I don't really understand
why, unless it's because the mobs on my ship are too busy beating up
whatever character is sat afk on the decking to set it on fire, maybe.
I'll take an alt along next time and see if I can beat it, since it is
not happening solo, that's for sure.
