Try to group up for this quest. The respawn rates in the cell blocks can be so out of hand most of the time that you'll have to kill 4-8 enemies in a row because they keep respawning one after another, meaning that getting to Svarnos can be suicidal and extremely frustrating. I've died multiple times doing these dailies simply because Blizzard really screwed up with the respawn rates, so you repeatedly get attacked with zero chance to eat/drink/bandage. With a group getting to the end is a lot less difficult.
Other option? Skip it. If there aren't a lot of people in the cell blocks, it might be worth saving yourself the repair bill and frustration from dying repeatedly.
For those that are a little slow like me. cood: 42.7, 39.2 for the entrance to D-Block then like BlueDog says go to the right when you get down the stairs.
The respawns are a little annoying if you want the quicker way fight through to him kill him then get naked and die. Its the easy way out!

Description
Excellent work on the island capture, {class}. Now that we have claimed the island, we need to make these cellblocks useable for prisoners. D-Block has been especially hard to clear out. Unfortunately it has become overrun with demons of all sorts. We have been able to thin out the demons but a large core hound has broken its way out of its cell and is wreaking havoc down there. I need you to kill him and bring back his collar.
