TheWoWDBAuto-accepted Bonus Objective when I got to the pathway to the Ruins of the First Bastion at 49,80. Could see where I needed to go with little golden crossed weapons on the map. The Pondlings are little and do little damage, usually in clusters of about 5. The jars are on the ground, up against stairs, by vines and rocks, etc. Malkor is in a deteriorating ruin that looks like a bit of a throne room at 52,81. You get there by going up stairs and back further into the Ruins.
I joined a dungeon queue while I was on this bonus objective, and it popped back up when I left the instance.
