TheWoWDBI think this quest is broke. You can't see the arrows that you use to shoot down the bats (assuming you did the earlier leveling quest here).

It is bugged but still able to be completed as melee if you don't have a ranged attack, just head to 58,57 on top of the tree roots and you should be able to reach the bats. Was able to complete it this way as an Assassination Rogue using Fan of Knives to tag the bats.
Freeing any [npc=94110] from the [npc=94109] (which only involves right-clicking the vines) counts towards the Temple attacker slain objective. So that can help speed it up.
