Before the small patch they just released about an hour ago, at least the truffle piles showed up in the area but you couldn't click on them, but now they don't even show up anymore, lol. Tried abandoning the quest and picking it up again, nothing.
Edit: Was able to complete it today, thanks to Drognin for the update.
Stagshells aren't collecting anything from the soil, stuck 0/5. Not in a party. Abandoning and selecting a different stagshell, also didn't do anything.

Description
The stagshells are of the utmost importance to Anub'azal's war campaign. We have a keen sense of smell, but only the stagshells are able to seek out valuable Kaheti truffles. The truffles are a key ingredient in several... explosive elixirs, as it were. If you desire details, Aromash can give you more.
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.
- Bug Test
Oh, I'm sorry, did you think this was a one and done assignment? If you did, Vix'aron would gladly "show you the door", as it were. The stagshells will require constant maintenance. Food. Water. Those sorts of things.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Permanent Hire
Rak-Ush is beginning to look like a functioning swarmery. The role of delegation has suited me and Vix'aron well. You will continue to aid the niffen. In return, you may keep a portion of the wealth the swarmbeasts produce. Saffrin has more detailed plans around the development of the swarmery.

Rak-Ush has 10 steps, from Bountiful Beetles to Permanent Hire.
