After accepting the quest, exit the building and look to your left. There should be a crate (Recovered Supplies) that is attached to a [npc=55676].
When you mouse over the crate, you get an 'enter vehicle' command that does a brief cinematic, then you can work on the quest objectives.

In the drone, you have 2 abilities:
[spell=104463]
[spell=104527]

The first, [spell=104463] is attached to #1 key binding, and is the single-target ability. Use this to 'pick off' Hozen one by one.
The second, [spell=104527] is attached to #2 key binding, and is your AOE on a 12-second cooldown.

To most easily complete this quest, single-target until you automatically fly into an encampment, then use your AOE ability when you are flying through the very center.

Good luck!

Description

Since you've been gone, more and more of these creatures are approaching our camp. They appear to be amassing for a major assault! We're going to have to take some drastic measures if we hope to see tomorrow. Here, take my poisoned throwing stars and figure out a way to thin out their numbers.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

  • Missed Me By... That Much!The Jade Forest · Level 10-35

    Listen, pal. I sent out a coupla supply drones from the gunship, and they've all been lost or crashed. Almost all, that is. One of 'em buzzed right through the camp here and crashed out by them waterfalls. How 'bout you see what you can do about bringin' the contents of that crate back here, hmm?
