It is kinda dumb because this quest-line is required to get the Loremaster achievement for this zone. You should be able to get the achievement without being forced to get just the right thing at this spot, they should have added that as a side note when you go to choose. Because of this they had to put in a fix and confused a lot of people. Someone failed to think this one through.

What to do
Description
An endless war wages between the creatures of the eastern wilds and the beasts of the western wasteland. Should one side overwhelm the other, all of Draenor would fall at the hand of the victor. I sent Rangari Erdanii to the heart of the battle between these two forces. It is likely that she will need your help, commander.

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.
- Power of the Genesaur
Commander, you now have the Will of the Genesaur along with the genesis water and enough seeds to grow an army. Not to mention the lives of the dwarves you saved. I would call this mission a success. I can help the dwarves mop up their operation here and see what we can salvage.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Seedbearers of Bad News
When these seedbearers are slain their seeds survive. From them spring new seedbearers, not over years, but hours. Leaving their remains here would soon cause the outpost to be overrun. We have learned that burning their remains prevents this from happening.
