Part of the Dragonhawk's flight path takes you near where Brutallus, the 2nd boss in the Sunwell Plateau, is standing.

Amusingly enough, if you throw bombs at him he shrugs it off and yells at you to try again "with 24 of your friends", poking fun at the hard-capped 25-man raid sizes.

Ayren can be found where you landed at Sun's Reach Harbour, easily spotted by the two Dragonhawks protecting him and to the north of the town. You talk to him for the air raid.

Took me more than one run on my first go at the quest. The Pit Lords took about 3 hits from full health to take down, luckily the bombs have a short cooldown roughly similar to GCD.

This quest tends to be a bit tougher because at least right now, everyone is doing it too.
As stofffer said, You will find Ayren Cloudbreaker at 48, 25 or for those of you without coords. Its the person standing beside the flight master. Not hard to find!
My advice would be to group up with people and all try and take off roughly at the same time, you will get credit.

The flight isn't long and once you are able to use your bombs, do so.
All three types of mobs you must kill are large so don't waste your bombs on the small guys standing around.
The sorcerers and pit overlords both take more then one hit to kill which is why grouping is a bit faster, atleast until everyone isnt doing them all at the same time or you can just keep repeating until you have them all killed. ( I completed it in 3 tries althought I was bombing the small guys who melee at first. )

You cannot get this quest until your realm has completed phase 1 which is why some of you guys aren't able to talk with Ayren or get the quest.
The more people doing their dailies the faster your realm completes the phases.

Description

The Legion will move against us as soon as their forces to the south are freed up. The Scourge at the Dead Scar are keeping their forces occupied at the moment. It won't last long, however. I want you to fly a dragonhawk over to the scar and put a dent in the demons' numbers with these arcane charges. If all goes well, they won't even notice us taking the armory from Kael's lackeys. Talk to Ayren, the dragonhawk master in the west part of the harbor, when you're ready to fly there.
