TheWoWDBYou can only turn in the salt once, and the bots battle every few minutes. If your faction bot wins, you can loot a chest that spawns in the middle of the bridge once per alt per invasion. You need to collect a [item=166734], a [item=166732], and a [item=166733] on the *same* toon to create a [item=166715] (Alliance). Horde pet is similar but a spider. Details in the comments for the [item=166715].
There is a comment that you can attack the opposing faction's battle bot to help your team win sometimes...not sure what lets you do that, but it's worth trying. :-)

It seems this information is missing from this page. Yes, you can only turn in this quest once but after you hand it in, you can go kill more krolusks to get briney salt to hand in for more power for your battle bot. You do not have to sit there and watch the spider lose every time. The briney salt only lasts 10 min but you can get a bunch quickly and hand them in 10 at a time.
Was at the bot for over an hour and the friendly faction bot lost for over an hour straight, invasion and servers went down before it ever won.
Really wish they would just make it alternate because that is frustrating and a bunch of people had over an hour of their time wasted because of that.
