If you cant turn in Artillerist Arsonist Quest go back to the gate and pick up Crushing Crusafe from Voss, She's in shadow mode (Cords 55.58)
You don't click the giant glowing object, you click the small, almost transparent bomb thing next to it.

Description
The chapel seems to be their base, and it is well defended--they've set up multiple defenses throughout the courtyard. The troops would have an easier time sieging if we could get some of them out of the way. Remember those explosives we gathered? Now is when they come in handy.

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.
