Terrible quest, you have to hope you're alone and got a full respawn before doing this, even if you need only 5 of each mob.
Vilebranch Headhunters and Vilebranch Witch Doctors spawns on the lower part of Jintha'alor and have just a few spawn points. If you aint the only one looking to kill these mobs you will most likely have to spend some time there.

Description
The Vilebranch are a different tribe from the Revantusk, but the difference is academic. Far as we're concerned the only good troll is a dead troll! But make no mistake, the Vilebranch are just as nasty even without the Horde's chain around their neck. They'll poison this whole land unless we take this stand and get rid of them You can start with their witchdoctors and headhunters on the lower tier. Let me know when you've killed a fair share of 'em.
Where to go
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.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Skulk Rock Supplies
I had a cousin in the second war! He used to tell me all about when they led a raid on Skulk Rock. Swept in there and drove the trolls out like rats from a nest. They chased right after 'em all the way to Alterac!
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Faces of Evil
The Vilebranch have hung their tiki masks all across the walls of Jintha'Alor. We won't tolerate their foul hexes and dark magic. It's time to send a message, and tear down their defenses, all at once! Take this torch, <class>. Set fire to their tiki masks and watch 'em burn.
