If you dismiss Kbato after the first part of the quest, like I did, you can find him again at 55:30.

A World of Warcraft quest in Zereth Mortis. Facts and objectives from the current retail game data.

The first of Kbato's abilities [spell=361885] requires Channeling and increases its damage while doing so. But you can greatly improve your damage by DOING IT ALL WRONG!
The ability has no cooldown whatsoever (not even global) and the first tick of damage happens immediately... so, you can simply spam the button over and over to deal massive DPS (around 80k) to any target at range while moving. By comparison, it is vastly faster than channeling and waiting for the ticks. Give it a try!
Thanks, they don't show any indicator on the map. Pretty badly designed/tested quest

What to do
Description
This is it, mortal. The forces you have assembled should be enough to break through the Mawsworn and reach the Crypts. Getting inside, however, will require more effort. The Mawsworn have barricaded the entrance. Kbato will carry you into battle. Eliminate the Mawsworn, and destroy the devices that power the barrier.

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.
- Cleaving A Path
Maw Walker! My scouts report that the Mawsworn have dominated two automa Oracles to aid them in battle. These Oracles will most certainly predict our strategy and our ultimate goal, if given the chance. We need to eliminate both Oracles before we enter the Crypts.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Unforgivable Intrusion
Darkness spreads dissonance throughout these halls. Mawsworn drain life from the air, and give only suffering in return. This must not be. If the song is to be restored, silence is needed. The Mawsworn must be destroyed.
The storyline at a glance
Starting Over has 15 steps, from Restoration Project to Souls Entwined.
