Minor thing, but If you're having trouble finding the 'Crate of Emptied Vials', fly up to the platform floating above the map position. :-)

One part of the information is on a platform ABOVE you!
FLynn's blades are inside a cave that's accessed from one of the structures/platforms approximately at 64, 27. The cave leads around to the bridge up above.

What to do
Description
To add insult to injury, they disarmed me. I'm not leaving without those blades! While we're looking, keep an eye out for any evidence of what's going on here. Anything that could give us an advantage against the nerubians. Something strange happened that provided us the opening to escape. I have a feeling that could be something we can exploit.
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.
- Force Your Way
Even with the general gone, it's not going to be easy getting out of here. This place is infested. I know I'm hiding it well, but I'm not exactly feeling my best. I'm not sure I'll be much help in this state. You're going to have to clear a path for us.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Let Fly!
Hm. This Anub'azal gave the orders that led to the prisoners' escape. Zev'kall here didn't seem very pleased with that. So how about this--you sneak into Siegehold, and make best friends with Anub'azal. Easy.
