look for "Mole Machine Remote Control" in your bag (or against quest text in list)
I found Interrogator Xi'pe on the extreme left side of the quest area as you face the beach from the water.
This World Quest comes with a button. If you use the standard UI, it will be next to the quest on the right.
Click this button to get a standard green targeting circle. Target the captives and click; a mole machine will appear, and save the prisoners. If you do this from in the water, and are careful, then you will not have to fight the guards.
Hunter Report: After fighting my way through this quest umpteen times, I finally had my D'oh! moment and evacuated the 10 captives without firing a shot by using Camouflage and heading straight for 5 groups of two prisoners for uncontested evacuations. Still stealthed, I swam a bit from shore to avoid the mobs, mounted my Azure Water Strider (Cammo gone now but who cares), padded across the water to Interrogator Xi'pe, and completed the quest in about 90 seconds.
Any form of stealth should work for other classes. Yes? No? Only my Hunter is at 120 so I can't be certain this time-saver will work for others.
