So I wasn't the only one who thought the quest was bad. Seriously, it needs a heavy rework because nothing interesting happened on it. And it being only the end of the Myreque series is no excuse at all. Here is an outline of how I'd have done things. Feel free to give some feedback:
1) As an additional preparation task, make a blisterwood tree grow to the other side of the river Salve to provide the Varrock army with weapons.
2) Make the skirmish happen: Vanescula's forces attack and you participate in the skirmish for some time until you find yourself overwhelmed by the sheer numbers and are forced to retreat along Ivan Strom to restore the barrier on the river. At this point Screwte could appear as well, either to assist you in the process as a guide and to make a final sacrifice while fighting the vampyres.
3) Make the quest go along as normal while you search for the Extreme Guthix Balance.
4) How about having to kill Safalaan? Make it so the Wyrd transformation drove him FUBAR and so your only option is to kill him.
5) Making it not so easy to add the Extreme Guthix Balance to the well. Have some vyrelords/ladies and werewolves infiltrate the church and you to fight them. A hold the line mission while Ivan Strom makes the ritual for adding the potion to the well.
6) A cutscene that shows how the Varrockian army is saved in the nick of time from being obliterated by the vampyres, turning all who had crossed the river into humans and surrendering to the Varrock army while the werewolves are slaughtered.
7) The ending could go as it did with the quest. And this time the werewolves rebel and go because they saw they don't stand a chance and aren't willing to make a suicide attack on the Varrock army.
