The location is correct. However, what to do once you get there is a bit foggy....

"Use my unstable warp rift generator in the Warp Fields to create a warp rift"

However, you have to rightclick on the generator, and then on the GROUND below the warp fields, not ON them. Hover your mouse on the ground under one of the rifts, and you will get a targeting cursor that turns green when you are in range, and is red if you are not. Click when you are in range, and some more voidwalkers will spawn.

The ones that spawn as a result of clicking on the ground will contains the quest item, with a seemingly 100% drop rate.

StorylineHellfire Peninsula, step 56 of 103
Rewards10g 50s, 4,100 XP

Description

Long have I wandered through Outland, searching for the truth of the void. Now I am old and weak. Perhaps you will help me? I must learn the secrets of the voidwalkers. You must find the Warp Fields to the west. West of the Expedition Armory there is a dark place on the edge of the abyss where time and space are weak. Use my unstable warp rift generator in the Warp Fields to create a warp rift. You must gather warp nether from the creatures that come through.

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.

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Grillok "Darkeye"Hellfire Peninsula · Level 10-30

    Grillok Darkeye has wagered a piece of himself to dark powers, and gained great magic for it. His lost eye burns deep in some hellish pit, now a demon's trinket... and the patch that covers his betrayal holds its own dark secrets.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Void RidgeHellfire Peninsula · Level 10-30

    We have to improve my warp rift generator. You must take it to Void Ridge. Head east of here. You must avoid the foul fort of Zeth'Gor. To the east beyond Zeth'Gor is a small pass through the mountains. Through this pass you will find Void Ridge, a terrible place on the edge of the abyss.
