How to access Damp Ransom Note
After you’ve completed the initial quest for the anniversary event with Alyx where he asks you to go around and talk to some NPCs. You will get a dialog option in which you can ask Alyx for tougher challenges.
She will ask you if you are sure, you need to confirm it. After you need to confirm again the pop-up window. This will allow you to take a look at the board next to Alyx. You need to access the paper on the top left of bulletin board. That is the Damp Ransom Note. You will get the note in your inventory, allowing you to read it whenever you want. You need to follow it for secret of Azeroth.
Find the Soggy Celebration Crate
After getting the note, you need to go to Zuldazar. Fastest way to go there is go back to Stormwind and use the portal room to go to Zuldazar. In the river to the west of Dazar’alor, there’s a waterfall next to an area called Tal’farrak. Swim underwater at the base of the waterfall to find Nikto, then purchase a Clam Digger from him.
Where to find Gerald
Gerald is a clam, and you’ll find him on a ledge almost directly above Nikto. You have a dialog option to use the Clam Digger to get Gerald to open, and you need to pick that choice. In Gerald’s mouth, you find a Soggy Celebration Crate. Interact with it to pick it up, and you get a quest to take the crate to Alyx.
Return to the Caverns of Time and the anniversary area outside its entrance to give the crate to Alyx and finish the quest.
The Damp Ransom Note will still be in your inventory, but you can now delete it without worrying if you’ll need it again. With that, you’ll have completed this secret of Azeroth event for the anniversary.
