So when I did this quest I was qued for a 5 man. It would make me go into the 5 man of the zone instead of the scenario you need for the quest. Just thought I would let anyone else know if you're banging you head on your desk like I was wondering why you can't finish this. Hopefully by the time it goes live they have that fixed.

Description
We need to figure out what rock Varedis is hiding under - the only way we're going to do that is by getting inside this prison. Do what you must.
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.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Making Arrangements
Do you recall Varedis, <name>? He was once our lead trainer, but fell with the Black Temple years ago. ...or so we thought. Kor'vas spotted the traitor alongside the Legion... wielding glaives imbued with power unlike anything she'd ever seen.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Hunt
You must lead this hunt, <name> - a small force will join you to ensure Varedis meets his end. You must try to make it into Varedis' hold undetected; the less time you spend in Legion territory the better. Meet at Krasus' Landing when you are prepared to leave.
