Ok, I had real issues with this quest. If it's bugged or if Blizzard ment to make it this way is unknown.
You need to go up in Magmoth, which is straight north of Fizzcrack Airstrip, and find the magmoth crushers or the mates of magmothregar. You use the blaster on them, and if the debuff doesn't come up on the target, continue blasting them until it does, or else you won't recieve the quest objective...

"Whadya mean it didn't work?
But... but...
<Crafty begins to sob>
Okay, we can deal with this. I'm a big girl. Time to think outside the box!"
Crafty tries so hard... it's not her fault her invention didn't work!
You might not get results until a second or two after the channeling bar goes away, so don't move or attack until you know something happened.

What to do
Description
That'll do her, chief! So, here's what I want ya to do.... Take my blaster and head north to Magmoth. If we're gonna have a chance at all against those monsters, we need to cut them down to size... so to speak. In order to gauge its effectiveness, I need you to slay the magnataur while the blaster's effects are still on it. Any of the crushers or mates will do, but don't bother with the offspring... they're too small to worry about.

Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Just a Few More Things...
As you may have noticed, we created the airstrip on the southern border of a magnataur den! <Crafty says something uncharitable about Fizzcrank under her breath.> The old man has put me in charge of finding a... ahem...
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Plan B
Okay, don't panic! The blaster might not've worked, but we still have options. <Crafty snaps her fingers.> We're going to divert attention away from the airstrip! To make this work, we'll need a few things first.
