The Phantasmal Substance appeared to have a much higher droprate than the fragments, so I'd recommend going for those first. Gargoyles are found all over the place, but the ghosts are only found indoors, mainly in the larger building to the west (remember to clear the upper floor).

Description

{name}, the final battle against the Ghostlands villages is upon you. Windrunner Village to the southwest has been overrun by a large force of the more powerful Scourge shocktroopers; shades and gargoyles. You will be the spearpoint of our offensive by thinning out their numbers. The magisters at the nearby Sanctum of the Sun have made a special request this time; they want the remains from these Scourge to study in hopes of finding creative ways of fighting them. Good hunting!

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.
