This is an extremely quick XP gain quest. Just use the blaster constructions at the edge of the dome to shoot 5 drakes. Aim slightly ahead of them to compensate for traveltime of the ammo, and you should be done in 1 minute with almost no travel time.
There's a magnificent glitch with this quest. I think it's achieved through using the second ability of your cannon which stuns the drakes. You either have to fire it right before the quest ends, or you have to have two mobs already in a stun at the moment of quest completion. This way, the mobs won't despawn when you exit the quest and will continue chasing you for eternity.
But there's a twist! The mobs are enemies of every faction that is allied to you. And if you're far away enough from them, they'll prioritize other characters, for instance, town NPCs - achieved it at the Teron's Watch. I suppose they'll attack other players as well but didn't check it.
Both times I did this quest, it happened on its own without me trying to do it. The first time I didn't even understand what happened and thought that I just stumbled on a pack of crazy elites. And now was my second time. Cool!

Description
The primalists have been ceaselessly attacking our camp with their drakes! We've been able to keep them at bay with our shields, but we could use more aid in taking them out of the sky. Use one of our blasters to take those drakes down!
