TheWoWDBFor anyone who isn't getting this quest... what fixed it for me was doing the Island Expedition quest given by Flynn Fairwind nearby. It's a short scenario, and after I did it, The Final Foothold was available from Wyrmbane. Hope that helps!

We have established two critical footholds in Zandalar. The time has come to establish the third. Let's review the battle plan when you're ready.
