I am starting to wonder if the Dastardly Diremites quest in Azim Steppe will ever be fixed. My inner completionist is furious. lol~
It's not broken.
They intentionally didn't mark their exact spawn point because the quest text mentions that they're hiding under the ground.
I just had to walk around the area near the spire and they popped.
I think walked over that spot completely 3 or 4 times, against the rocks and such, never had any luck with it.
Try this exact spot next time you log on it worked for me here.

Never had an issue personally. Just read what to do and the rough area to go and started hunting.
Remember the days when quests didn't have giant floating arrows and you had to actually, you know, go quest for the thing? Those were the days...
How dare you, are you implying that entitled snowflakes are incapable of hunting and completing quests unassisted as well as those that have, in the past, functioned solo on their own and completed difficult and complicated tasks solo....huh?
Well, be warned, some day they will put their puppy's back in their boxes and leave their safe spaces to explore the unknown world solo.....wait....
never mind....
The issue isn't that it requires searching around, it's that the spot itself is both too small and seemingly unlikely in placement.
But please, let's fall back on nostalgic-tinged fallacies instead of taking a moment to figure out where the complaint actually lies.
I've completed every sidequest in SB, and this is the one that puzzled me the most. I dismissed it as bugged at first, but had success trying the spot mentioned 5 posts up. So every side quest is completable.
