TheWoWDBQuest seems bugged right now, I only had to kill one Vilebranch Shadowcaster, whereas the quest text said I needed to kill five.

Easier than the first Jintha 'Alor kill quest, seeing as they spawn over a wider area than the ones in the first Quest, and thus there are more of em.
Spawning on the 3rd "floor"
They must've changed this quest sometime for some unknown reason. You only need to kill 1 Shadowcaster now instead of 5.

Description
We won't give them a chance to react. You must re-enter Jintha'Alor and charge all the way to the upper tiers. The Vilebranch berserkers and shadowcasters are dangerous enemies, {name}. When the others see their bodies thrown across the walls, they'll know we mean business. Don't leave any Vilebranch hearts beating!
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.
- Heads Up
Umboda of the Vilebranch is one of their strongest warriors, and a sick butcher. He takes the heads of all he slays as trinkets, rewards...even weapons! It's his turn to be taken. Find Umboda "Three-Heads", slay him, and bring me HIS head!
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Dark Vessels
The Vilebranch trolls here used to drink the corrupted blood of the god Hakkar himself for power. They boiled it in crude pots before drinking, dark vessels full of unholy strength. Hakkar was killed long ago, of course. But the interesting thing... I still see some cauldrons bubbling up there.
