It seems totally arbitrary and is extremely unfair to the player.It was toned down in one of the patches. Taranna and Eth had a hell of a time doing it together at somewhere around level 18. My baby hunter Kadaeri soloed it at 15 with zero deaths and only killing maybe 5 murlocs total on the first boat and zero murlocs killed on the second boat. No water breathing potions used, no sacrificing the poor kitty and only one add because a runner got away from me. I did use one heal pot when I was almost back to the surface while taking heavy damage from drowning, but that was it. So it's much, much easier now than it was at release.
Also, your character level at the time you attempt the quest plays a BIG role on how hard it is. With a large enough aggro radius, the quest is literally impossible because you cannot kill the Murlocs fast enough to clear them out and beat the respawn rate, exacerbated by having to swim up for breath after every fight. If you're a higher level, you can avoid all that, sneak in, and grab the loot without hardly a fight.
