This quest bugged for me today. I had 4 out of 5 progress, then suddenly I could no longer interact with the Beleaguered Explorers. I tried relogging, nothing. I abandoned the quest and picked it up again, nothing. I abandoned again, hearthed to Valdrakken, flew back and picked up - still nothing. It's the last chapter I need for Waking Shores loremaster.

to turn in this quest you need to go to 66,56 in a small cave looking area. down in the Life Vault Ruins
and question mark of the npc only shows up when close
The quest turn-in marker may show up on the road at the top of the stairs, if so, ignore that location. The actual turn-in is in a cave-like area. The entrance of the cave is 66.78, 56.34 and it's on the lower level. You can just run past the "Unsettled Rubble" fighting at the entrance. This comment also applies to your other quest, Unearthed Troublemakers.

Description
I've worked with many elementals as a shaman, but I've never seen any this aggressive! The Expedition discovered a titan vault here, but a barrier protects the inner chamber. When we tried to dispel the barrier, I think we triggered some kind of security system... There were suddenly angry elementals everywhere! Many explorers were working in the dig site when the elementals attacked. Many of them are trapped, and NONE of them are fighters. Please go down into the dig site and help them retreat!

Where this quest fits
After this quest
Taken from a quest that requires this one.
- Rapid Fire Plans
Elemental orbs, eh? If there's earth, there's bound to be fire! The primalists over near tae hornswog nests are reshapin' tae land with lava. If anyone has an interest in tae Orb o' Primal Flames, it'd be them! Take them out and see if they have anythin' useful!
- Distilled Effort
The Orb of Primal Stone is a fortuitous find, but Acadia and Tae'shara have conflicting hypotheses regarding the barrier. I have my own hypothesis. Perhaps with more elemental orbs an answer will become clear. One of the explorers saw an oversized water elemental in a nearby cave.
