Finally, I can stand in the bad, and it's a GOOD thing!
YOU MIGHT NOT NEED TO DO ALL THE QUESTS TO COMPLETE [Magma-nificence]!
(I am not 100% sure, this is my experiance)
When I get to the quest area there were all quests available for the Magma-nificence which is the part of the achievement Sojourner of the Ringing Deeps.
[An Igneous End], [Magmanagement], [Sampling Steam], and most importantly, last part of the quest: [Cinderbrew Reserve]Once I get to the quest area, I accepted all quests and directly went to do [Cinderbrew Reserve] and I got credit for [Magma-nificence] when I did completed [Cinderbrew Reserve] and didn't need to do the rest.

What to do
Description
The effects of the magmatic buildup are clear to see, but what we still do not understand is the root cause. In order to determine it, and prevent it in the future, I need samples of the volcanic gases you can see bursting from the ground. Fresh samples. Very fresh. You're going to have to stand in them as they erupt in order to gather what I need.
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.
- Magmanagement
As if the pipe going down wasn't enough, a horde of magmatic elementals burst out when it failed. We can't risk sending anyone else down to attempt repairs while the area is overrun, but that magma is vital to powering the whole Deeps.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Cinderbrew Reserve
Trade may have been restricted, but I'll calcify before I let my Cinderbrew Reserve fall into the hands of these stripped screws or go up when some elemental looks at it funny.

Magma-nificence has 4 steps, from An Igneous End to Cinderbrew Reserve.
