Posted Apr 26, 2013 (Patch 5.3.0)After accepting the quest...
... and he runs off.
(Honestly, I have to share this because at this point we all know where this quest chain is going - I've started reading the goblin's name as Rivett Clutchpoop. Not intentionally, but once you've thought it... I can't stop thinking it. -_- )
Anyway, you can see a line of hozen leading up to an outhouse. They are voicing various complaints about the state of their digestive discomfort, while Rivett says:
Important for hunters: Make certain to not be using any aspect which provides speed. The daze-if-struck component will carry over to the vehicle - at least, that was my experience when I leveled through the zone on my hunter. If you are already in the vehicle with its UI, I believe you can use the console command "/cancelaura Aspect of the Pack" (without the quotation marks, and substituting in Aspect of the Cheetah if appropriate).
Important for EVERYBODY: If a jinyu gets too close you won't be able to attack it with the... Grookin Grenade. Shokia won't kill it for you either. The jinyu will knock you out and you'll have to speak to Rivett again. Make your shots count! Your "ammo" is restocked only so fast.
If you abandoned the quest, you can pick it back up from Rivett Clutchpop in Dookin' Grounds (Jade Forest) at 30,52. He's kneeling in front of a pile of steaming... well, you know.

Stuff said while attacking the jinyu. Asterisk indicates fixed time, i.e. intro and outro. Rest is random-ish.

Quest Completion:
I'd say repelling the attack is an understatement!
