I also ran into this bug (for me, Ba'ver assisted wouldn't resolve), and fixed it like so:

1. Abandon 'Restoring Operational Efficiency'
2. Re-accept 'Restoring Operational Efficiency'
3. Turn in 'Restoring Operational Efficiency'.

That was all it took for me - hope it's that simple for anyone else running into this bug.

Description

Locus-Walker was brought into the Trust to handle such a violent crisis of the Void. He says you are some kind of hero or champion. Good. We are in need of such a thing. Tazavesh is under threat from the Void. The Shadowguard! They threaten the work of the Trust and my reputation as an administrator.

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.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Return to the Veiled MarketK'aresh · Level 80

    I have been retained by the K'aresh Trust--a coalition of both broker and ethereal cartels who seek to reclaim K'aresh. The Trust is in desperate need of one of your skills, <name>. The Shadowguard assaults our city and threatens the work of the eco-dome project. Please accompany me.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Compromised ContainmentK'aresh · Level 80

    Somehow, an artifact in the Menagerie has broken open, unleashing a swarm of furious arcane creatures. They're wreaking havoc, and havoc is bad for the project. I need someone capable of getting this situation under control with no questions asked.
