For Ankova the Fallen you do not need to kill the NPC but rather walk up to the already slain corpse. This will give you credit for the kill and start an escort quest. On my priest I patiently waited at max range for a while waiting for the mob to respawn like an idiot.

I would also recommend doing this part of the quest last as you'll pick up the escort quest and be able to turn the current quest in as well.

Description

The bad orcs tried to catch me, but I snuck away. I'm good at hiding. All of the bad orcs are bad, but I've remembered the names of the meanest ones, just in case anybody came to save me. <Luuka takes a deep breath.> Ungra, Gurran, and... umm... oh! Ankova. Will you protect me from them?

Where to go

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.
