The mechanic is a little odd - go up to any Shipwrecked Captive and click on the Pile of Weapons in your bag (NOT the pile of weapons with the arrow on that someone else has just placed...)
As of this date in Beta, this quest is strangely executed as one would think you would go up to the NPCs, click on them and hand them a weapon, INSTEAD you click on the item in your bag which has the effect of dumping a stash of weapons on the ground and attracting nearby NPCs.
To be fair, the pile of weapons seems to have a signifcant "aggro" radius for NPCs, but it's odd that this quest doesn't follow the traditional "arm the prisoners" style of completion. This may change when Legion goes live.

What to do
Description
<You and Okuna were going to arm the captives in here. The idea was to free them and cause as much chaos as possible. It's the only sure way to be able to get close to the prince. You still have the weapons. You're just going to have to be careful sneaking around the giants.>

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.
