You can detonate the same barrel twice - they become clickable again when they reach the bottom of their sink pattern once you activate them.
There's a short window to click again before it explodes.

Position yourself correctly, and you only need four barrels to complete the quest.

Not a well-made quest at all. The barrels are too few & spaced too far apart, and with so many players doing the world quests at the same time it takes a lot of swimming around looking for barrels & waiting for more to respawn & hoping you get to them before another player does. Because when one player detonates a barrel, it disappears for everyone.

Where to go
