I suggest going inside Manaforge Coruu, less mobs there.
if you rotate the camera to where you're looking directly down on your character and position the mouse in the direct center of these boxes, i've found that you can loot them pretty consistently.

What to do
Description
We are not the only ones battling the influx of the mana beings. The blood elves, too, are troubled by them, but I'm not sure why. Whatever they're involved in over there, they don't seem to be stopping. Instead, I've seen them employ a variety of methods to kill the creatures. The most effective involves magical defenses fueled by some sort of concentrated energy. Capture some of these energy sources and bring them to me. Don't hesitate to stymie the elves if an opportunity presents itself.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Unending Invasion
Kael'thas's assault on Kirin'Var began with thundering noise and a bright flash of light in the officer quarters to the northwest. The destruction there was the most severe and after the withdrawal of the blood elves, a strange thing began to happen.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Building a Perimeter
We are prepared to try to construct a perimeter around the village using the energy source taken from the blood elves. I can't guarantee that it will work, but we have to attempt it. Otherwise, the mana creatures will surely continue devouring the spirits of the fallen Kirin Tor.
