The beacon is right in front of the structure. You need to get to it and immediately run to the center of the whirling bands and click on the orb in the middle. Everything will aggro on you including faceless conquerors and packs of three tidal corruptors. If you aggro them before you can click on the ball in the middle (while having the beacon over your head) you will not be able to complete it. Otherwise it is easy if you just AVOID everything. Get out of there fast too because everything will descend.
Make sure you're not in a raid group when you're doing it. If you're in a raid it won't count.
