Kommentar von orcantasia

Habe bisher noch keine dermaßen kranke und schikanöse Questlinie bei Blizzard erlebt wie diese, angefangen bei 20 Minuten auf ein Schiff auf die Insel warten, die kilometerlangen Wege von den Friedhöfen, die auf Grund der unsinnig unvorhersehbaren Ereignisse unvermeidbar sind, sowie die Tatsache, dass selbst bei Tarnung jeder Sepp auf dich einschlagen kann. Ich hoffe nur, dass das nicht der neue Stil für Quests wird, um sie ohne viel Aufwand künstlich in die Länge zu ziehen. Ein solcher Questdesigner sollte schleunigst entlassen werden. Ich wünsche viel Spielspass damit, wenigstens ist das Mount ganz nett, das man aber leider nicht benutzen kann, da man als 110 den netten Hinweis bekommt, werd erstmal Lvl 20 und lern reiten.

Kommentar von Taaleah

Für alle die sich gerne auch mal so doof anstellen wie ich:

Exodar

Ich bin übers Schiff in SW (links wenn man die Stadt im Rücken hat) rüber nach Teldrassil und von da aus weiter zu den Ziegen aus dem All (rechter Steg wenn man die Stadt im Rücken hat).
Runter in die Stadt, Ziel suchen und den Begleiter welcher einen eh aufdecken würde ablenken. Das Ziel selbst hat wenig Leben. Ran, umhauen, Verschwinden - fertig.

Darnassus

Zurück wo man herkam und ab aufs Flugmount. Stellt man sich nicht unglaublich doof an, kann man fast bis zum Mob ranfliegen. Er ist umgeben von zig Wachen und Partygästen die auch definitiv gerufen werden. Da hilft nur eins: Hinschleichen, Anfangen, defensive Fertigkeiten ziehen, umhauen und wer hätts gedacht - Verschwinden.

Eisenschmiede

Ab aufs Schiff nach Sturmwind (Ist der mittlere Steg) und in die Tiefenbahn über den Zwergendistrikt.
Das Ziel steht in seiner Rüstung rechts an der Wand. Einfach den Schlüssel für die Rüstung stehlen, anwenden und dann gib ihm. Er wird versuchen wegzulaufen. Im Anschluss ein überraschendes Verschwinden und zurück zur Tüftlerstadt.

Ich hatte anhand meines Gammelequips meines hinterletzten Twinks dezente Schwierigkeiten und war froh, dass der Mob dank Gift zeitgleich mit mir umkippte.

Sturmwind

Über die Tiefenbahn gehts erneut nach Sturmwind. Ins Auktionshaus um genau zu sein. Euer Ziel ist einer der Auktionatoren. Der hat so wenig Leben dass er sofort aus dem Leben fällt.

Ich habe den dämlichen Vogel nicht gefunden und bin dank der freundlichen Allis auch recht schnell zum liegen gekommen. Yeah Auktionshaus. Da ist ja zum Glück nie frei... Als Geist kann man aber in Ruhe schauen welches Ziel man nun genau töten muss. Ach ja, raus halfen mir auch wieder die höflichen Allis von nebenan. Meinen Geier hab ich mit Wiederbelebungsnachwirkungen bestiegen und der Schnauze voll von dem Müll.

after this quest I hate dwarves even more

Kommentar von Jorvalt

I'm stuck on the Exodar one. Does anyone have any idea where he is? I heard that apparently he has a robot bodyguard following him around but I haven't seen anything like that.

Kommentar von aernath

Exodar (Ardaan the Solemn):
You can go to Exodar fastest from Orgrimmar and Mount Hyjal portal, or you can taxi to Moonglade or Duskwood, you can then fly to Ruttheran Village, take the ship to the west on map and go to entrance of Exodar, go inside the tunnel there and into the city.
You can see the target on the map as a star (like rares). First Distract the Crystal Golem to seperate it from the target, be careful because it can oneshot you easy and it's a long annoying ghost run, after that when your target moves away, Blind the Golem and attack your target, interrupt his Call for Help. Attack with all cooldowns, kill fast, Vanish, run away.

Darnassus (Taylenne Sweetsong):
You can use the same ship for going back to Ruttheran Village, use the portal there, pinkish glowing tree root with guards all around, go in stealth so you won't be ganked by guards when you're in Darnassus.
Go to the mark in stealth but watch the patrols. Your target will be in a very crowded place (garden party mode), watch out for Huntress Duskrunner and other patrols, she and others can see stealth and they patrol the area on mounts, attack when they go away from the place. Use Cloak of Shadows and Crimson Vial, since your target and all the crowd are casters, pop all cooldowns, kill fast, Vanish, run away. Don't fly, air patrol may shoot you down. Just go out of city and use Hearthstone.

Ironforge (Corin Twinbellows):
Fastest way to Ironforge for a Horde is Twilight Highlands portal in Orgrimmar, short flight from there, or from Silvermoon portal from Dalaran, just run to the Undercity translocator orb then when you're at outer part of Undercity, mount up and fly to Ironforge.
Watch out for Thief Catcher Thunderbrew, he's the stealth seeing patrol in Ironforge. Corin has a buff named Heavy Armor, reducing Physical Damage taken %99, pickpocketing him gives you a key to remove this armor buff, you can use the key in stealth too and stealth won't be removed, but for still killing him fast, preferrably you have to respec for Shadow or Nature damage, Subtlety or Assassination. Outlaw can also do some damage but it will be short comparably. Both with cooldowns are almost enough to take him out with just spell damage but Subtlety is a bit guaranteed. Use all defensives too, pop cooldowns, apply dots, don't move a lot from the corner, kill and try to escape and vanish, you may have to deal with 1-2 guards, so sapping one may help there. He runs inside so try to stun him before getting more guards, besides he yells for help too, so save the kick and interrupts for that. Do the killing, use your defensives, after that, vanish and escape to Stormwind with tram for next target.

Stormwind (Auctioneer Jaxon):
As we exit the tram from Ironforge, we have two ways to get to our target, either flying low and careful or just walk in stealth, target is at the Trade District Auction House. Rightmost Auctioneer in the building. You have to be super careful about the elite guards who can see stealth and ruin you and force you to run a looong ghost run. Avoid them and go inside AH, kill is pretty easy but place is crowded, so keep Vanish on cooldown again, go back to the target, pop CDs, then use defansives and run out, yes don't just vanish rightaway because it can be ruined by one of those elite guards, just run behind the cheese shop, that place is quite safe for using your HS, so survive the run there, vanish and HS.

Quest is done, go to the Order Hall and get your Raven ^^

PS: Sorry for late update, I started this at PTR then forgot to update <:b

Kommentar von Reignac

On Corin Twinbellows (the dwarf), pickpocket him to loot the key to his armor, allowing you to strip it off of him.

Kommentar von fablechild

I don't get it... how do I even start this questline? Lilian Voss is already one of my followers, and she has nothing to say. I have completed all quests up to Hiding in plain sign. Så what am I doing wrong?

Kommentar von Thunderdrake

Ardaan the Solemn is spawning by the training dummies in the Crystal Hall around 24.11 30.4

Kommentar von IvikN

Right now Exodar part is bugged so if you see golem walking around alone - you need to gather a group and kill it. Otherwise you will never get this mob spawned.
Killing is hard cause golem one-two shots you. You need to trick all your threat to another member of your group and this member should kite it and you can kill it within ~30 seconds. Be aware of aggro cause it's changing it immediately without warning and kills you on a spot. Always refresh tricks. After golem is killed it will respawn instantly and you'll get a rare star on your map/minimap to follow.

Kommentar von Hymeros

If Ardaan the Solemn is not up and his bodygard is walking alone, you need to kill him in order to make respawn Ardann.
You have two options:
- Create a mini-raid group ! You can't kill the bodygard alone.
- Or, better, apply to any group on another server. You'll have a chance to find Ardann alive (it's the easy way, you just need to be patient).

Kommentar von NinjaFlibble

how long is the respawn timer on that Exodar @#$%er?

Kommentar von NinjaFlibble

can't we at least get special instanced versions without ally players? -_- do they KNOW how overpopulated the Stormwind trade district is with players?

Kommentar von Kozzie

Once again, after 14 weeks of weekly quests - here is a pile of crap for you to deal with and btw, part of it is bugged...done with this portion. Will continue to use my Jeweled Onyx and let my pets walk or fly on their own.

Kommentar von Khiswow

I wonder what went thru the devs' minds when they choosed the NPC to kill in SW ?
Why an auctionneer ? And why one on the most used spot?
Even on a low population server it's tricky to get here because you'll instant focused (and killed) by dozen of players.

Prior to go get the mount class for my rogue I noticed I didn't see many of them in the broken Isle. I know understand why.

Kommentar von Koolaider

Auctioneer Jaxon in Stormwind can be hard to get to, especially if there are a bunch of PvP enabled Alliance camping the spawn waiting to gank you. She dies in two hits if you have decent gear, so just Shadowstep to her from stealth, kill her quick, and get your ass beat.

Kommentar von Cyco111

This is for the horde but will work with alliance as well.

When killing the last NPC, the Auctioneer, you're probably going to die a few times, especially when it gets later in the day and more people are attempting this. Get inside the auction house when you die.
When you run back, make a macro for your main killing attack.

#showtooltip Mutilate
/target Auctioneer Jaxon
/cast Mutilate

Replace your ability with this macro (edited for you spec obviously).

Then enter the AH while dead, close to the spot where the NPC spawns and as soon as it spawns, click Resurrect and spam your macro. Only takes 2-3 hits on a decent geared character. Take your death, rez at graveyard (10 mins of rez sickness goes quickly). Hearth back to Dalaran, turn in quest, get your mount.

Kommentar von Treepulse

Don't forget to leave your group after raid and get stuck on 'Listen to Lillian Voss'. Oh, and don't spend an hour and a half testing addons and relogging before creating a GM ticket.
It happened to a friend of a friend of mine.

Kommentar von alpanhell

Auktionatorin Jaxon in Stormwind was guarded by at least two rogues and a hunter when I killed her (real losers I might add). I almost killed her anyway since she only has 640k, if I'd played my rogue more I'm sure I would have (didn't even have my medallion on my action bar). I did the long gy run and got behind her, that's where the rogues were. I could see them when I was dead. Targeted her, put her on focus just in case, and popped out and killed her fast before they could react (I was slightly behind the rogues to make it harder for them).

I took my time before rezzing just because it makes me laugh to think they are sitting there for 20 mins bored out of their minds just to annoy other players.

Had enough time to /rofl at those losers before dying.

Kommentar von Highone

Put on your Brysngamen, Torc of Helheim ;)

Kommentar von sakera

Adding a little tip here for Horde Outlaw Rogues going solo against the first Mark (Ardaan the Solemn) in Exodar. After failing to get a Blind off against the Golem by just walking within range, I opted to use my Grappling Hook talent and land right at him. I was then able to hit the Blind before he could one-shot me again. After that, the Mark was an easy kill.

Kommentar von voltrain

Kil'jaedens brennender Wunsch can be a life saver for this quest. If you don't interrupt the Darnassus mark in time, or too many guards get pulled in Ironforge, this thing is awesome.

Kommentar von 968833

1. First guy just wait till he walks at a nice distance from the guards then blind his golem then go nuts on him pop CDs! Then Disappear.

2. Second guy Throw distract to distract as many guests as you can this will buy you precious seconds then once again go nuts on the target. You will most likely die on this one so just rez and go the the next one

3. Third guy Chase him down and slow him or kidney punch him and make sure to interrupt his scream for help then kill him

4. Forth guy Sap any guards around and pray the AH isnt crowded. Thankfully the mark doesnt have much health once you dispatched the target just disappear. If disappear doesnt work just run out and jump into the river the guards will stop shooting at you and you can just hearth.

Kommentar von mjblink

Alliance version here

Kommentar von Bursi

Quest line for the class mount Mörderisches Omen der Schattenklinge starts at Apotheker Keifer on Broken Shore after completing Sturm auf das Grabmal with a Rogue.

Mörderisches Omen der Schattenklinge will be added to your mount collection automatically after turning in the quest.

Other color schemes are obtainable by full skilled artifact weapons (Ausgeschöpftes Potenzial):

Assassination: Verpestete Zügel des düsteren Vorboten
Outlaw: Blutige Zügel des düsteren Vorboten
Subtlety: Nachtschwarze Zügel des düsteren Vorboten

They are purchasable from Zan Messerritzel for 1000 Ordensressourcen each.

Kommentar von huntedape

For Corin Twinbellows in Ironforge, you can pickpocket him for a key to remove his armor, makes his death so much quicker.

Kommentar von Krokar

As someone who has played both alliance and horde for an equal amount of time over the past 12 years this was one of the funnest and easiest of the mount quests. Must say anyone who flew into sw and had problems, im sry but, just staying on the ground and walking in was fairly easy.

Kommentar von Necromanic

Been waiting 10 mins, boat to Exodar still hasn't arrived.

Kommentar von selkie47

Exodar was pretty simple. Sneak in the back way beside the dock. Find your target, blind his escort (unless you like long corpse runs) and go ham on the guy. Vanish. Literally saw zero alliance players.

For Darnassus, sneak thru the back by the party. No sense going thru the front gate unless you like trouble. Fly up and up and up till you can reach the back entrance, wait till the patrol pats by then pounce. Use your CoS then vanish.

Ironforge I chose the direct route, right thru the front gates. Stealth like your gonna go visit the King and your target will be right inside the door. Sap a guard just so you dont get too overwhelmed. Pick pocket and use the item- this will bring you out of stealth. Use your defensives and kidney shot that bloke to keep him from running. Kill him then flee down the little passageway.

SW had me seriously nervous. Not only is that the allie hub that's also the main AH. The plan here is FAST. Get in, get out. Do it before anyone can type out the dreaded "there's a rogue here". I started at the front gate, dropping down near the FP window and stealthing right over to the um... building with the barker outside (sorry I don't allie that often enough to know layouts). Did a fast check to see how many players I'd have to deal with and chose my opportune moment. Made a small targeting macro (/tar auctioneer jaxon), shadowstepped and went to town. Screwed up my rotation in my nervousness but killed her before anyone could stop me. Evasion, CoS, vanish and sprinted for the exit.

Kommentar von jtrezzo

Wow rogues really got screwed! Shaman class mount quest took literally 5 minutes, mage one took maybe 20. This is taking HOURS!

Kommentar von Talboth

Oddly enough the Stormwind kill was the easiest of the four, even with a packed AH. Even when a guard saw through my stealth I was able to pick them off easily and hearth out.

Kommentar von oozie

rather a scary series of tasks - but fun! go carefully - and good luck!

Kommentar von DKong27

While in Darnassus, stop by to see Tyrande Wisperwind. You can pickpocket her Ein schlüpfriger Romantikschmöker and copy her appearance with Glyphe 'Verkleiden'.

Kommentar von mysgydid

As a note, if its available, the Dalaran Hearthstone doesn't break stealth. So if you've managed to get away from those nasty ol' Alliance and want to get away clean, use that one, not your regular hearth. =)

Kommentar von dorz

I cannot get to the Exodar. The boat bugs out and never goes anywhere and you cannot flt there due to fatigue. HTF do you get there?

Kommentar von Zarasz

When I started I hoped it would be a scenario like when you go for one of the artifact weapons. No, its the real deal.

- Exodar is difficult because of the mechanic guard. Distracting it without distracting the target makes it doable. The guard hits for 5mil btw. I died twice and it took me nearly 3mins to reach my corpse. The boat worked for me.
- Darnassus is much easier. There is an opening when the target walks between tables. Just use interrupts or stuns and nobody will interfere.
- Ironforge is just good timing. Stun one guard, use the key, kill the target and vanish.
- Stormwind was easier than I expected. I managed to kill the target and vanish right infront of half a dozen players who didnt really bother for PVP. The only hard part is the server you are on. Its silly to attack during prime time. Wait till its deep in the night or you really have very few players in the house.

Kommentar von ZeroFighter

Try to not die in Stormwind as you will have to run all the way from Eastvale logging camp...

Kommentar von Lillyrose

Exodar is ok, guards are spaced far enough apart you can walk right between them, but don't get too close. If you can keep him separated from his golem he is easy to take down, just hit blind on the golem...I waited till he was in the crystal area, less likely guards are there.

Darnassus was a little tricky, but there is a time when in the back of the area where she is there are 2 tables of guest kind of separate from each other, wait till she is between the two, sap and kill, you may die but that's ok, run back to body hide behind tree, rez then stealth to back of building and hearth. NOTE: A couple of the guests are elites, so maybe mouse over the guests to be sure, I think they were at the tables closer to the road.

Ironforge, easy to get in, pickpocket the guy for the armor key. I died the first time, lots of guards since he is in the boss room. So I blinded the closest guard to him inside the room to his right, then the other guard who walks back and forth I sapped, removed the guys armor (can be done in stealth) killed him. Vanished and went to the tram in stealth.

Stormwind I thought would be hard on my server since it is always packed with people, but I stealthed in and hid behind the target (chick on the right), waited till there were only a few people there, but don't wait too long, there is a guy who sees stealth and will get you, he does damage but not as much as the guards, after he hit me I just started killing the target, she dies easy, then I died of course when the guards ran in, but I just resz'd at the graveyard since you are in the middle of nowhere, hearthed back and turned in.

None of the players tried to get me, it was just the guards and NPC's. Could be because I am on a PvE server.

Kommentar von Robin64

As of patch 8.0, this can no longer be completed. The boat to Azuremyst has been replaced with a portal (anything involving Teldrassil and Undercity has) and the portal is faction locked. Basically this means Horde has no way to get to the Exodar right now.

Edit: This has been fixed. Horde can now use the portal to Exodar.

Kommentar von Yarulco

As of August 3, 2018, I couldn't fly over to Rut'theran Village; there's an invisible wall surrounding it. Perhaps this workaround was already a given, but I just talked to Zidormi to reset Darkshore to the era before the invasion, and then I was able to fly over to Rut'theran and take the portal to the Exodar.

Kommentar von syrlinus

As of Patch 8.0.1, once you do this you can purchase all three of the mounts. So you only need to suffer this once, thankfully.

Kommentar von Jubeiftw

As of today Saturday August 11th, 2018. I had to switch Darkshore back to before we destoryed it, flew over to darnassas, and there was a portal to exodar on the far west bridge. Click it and appeared in Exodar. (Probably don't have to switch back to old world Darkshore, but I did)

Kommentar von Moocifer

This can no longer be done at 110 in Ironforge. As soon as you enter, the 120 guards see through your stealth and one shot you. I managed to die and rez further and further in but as soon as I try and get close enough to hit the mark I am jumped by the guards immediately, and I can neither pickpocket him for the key or damage him fast enough before he runs away, and I die. These are just normal guards they are not the ones with a blue circle, they just break your stealth instantly.

Possibly at 120 your stealth may actually work again but after 8 goes at this I gave up.

I put a ticket in and got this replay today, 5 Sept, 2018.

I have bug reported it.

Hi Stabmella !

I'm Game Master Baelmanifus, Time Wizard Extraordinaire and Entrepreneur!

I hope you are doing well today and I have heard through the echoes of time that you were having an issue with completing the quest "Hiding in Plain Sight"

I am sorry to hear that and can understand how frustrating it is when you are trying to get the class mount!

I have taken a look into this and it seems that this is something we are currently investigating at the moment and we recommend opening a bug report so our QA team can investigate it further and hopefully this can be further our investigations.

We apologize for any inconvenience caused as that was not our intention and in the meantime I have been able to attach this ticket to the open case we have on this issue and hopefully it can be addressed soon!

Hopefully this won't hold you back for too long and it may be possible to complete this quest if you are at level 120.

May the loot always roll in your favour
Game Master Baelmanifus

So yeah, seems to be a known thing that's probably WAAAAAAAAAYYY down the list to be fixed.

Kommentar von malavae

Did this in the BfA xpac. When you get to Darkshore you'll see a small 'chat' symbol on the map. Go there and the npc will shift time to before the world tree burning. Now you can fly to the area closest to Azuremyst so you can fly across the narrowest part of the sea.

Kommentar von Madster92

I figured the Ironforge part out in BFA as a 110 after dying at least 10 times to the guards.
Your best bet is to die your way to the throne room so you can get into the hallway to old ironforge under the throne room.
There will be no npcs and guards that can get you out of stealth and you will be pretty much directly in front of Colin.
I used Shadowstep as a Subtlety Rogue on Colin, snatched his key with Pickpocket ran back in the hallway, vanished and ran down until I wasn't infight anymore. Then I waited for him to respawn shadowstepped him again used the key to strip his armor and kill him before the guards killed me. Good luck every lowlevel Rogue out there!

Kommentar von withkittens19

This maybe the most painful quest i have ever had to do due to the guards being 120 and i was 110 thinking it would be phased or they wouldnt see me in stealth boy was i wrong anyone who does this quest wait till max level before you try to do it.

Kommentar von Aestua

For whatever it's worth, if you haven't been into Ironforge in a long time, they've opened up the hallway to Old Ironforge - a doorway leads down to it opposite the mark. Note that there ARE guards down there, but you probably won't encounter any until you get to the bottom of several sets of stairs. There were about a dozen total throughout the Old Ironforge area. Pretty cool to see it open. Last time I'd seen it, I had to die next to the wall and res behind it to go exploring. ;)

Kommentar von Taela87

Since the release of BFA, all the guards are 120, which means at 110 (when you get the quest) you'll be sapping your way past them all because they can see you in stealth. After a few corpse runs, I got Exodar and Darnassus done, but Ironforge was impossible to get the guy down before the guards one-shotted me.

Also, I had a res bug in Ironforge where I ressed, but I remained dead. Mobs and people could see me and kill me again, but the world was grey, my health was 0 and none of my abilities worked. I had to relog a few times to fix it and hearth out of monotone hell.

So I guess I'm waiting until 120 for my mount, assuming the quest even works then. Crappiest mount quest experience, ever.

Kommentar von Fyrecrakker

In case anyone is looking for info for after Patch 8.1 like I was, to get to Exodar as a Horde, go back in time in Darkshore, fly over to Teldrasill, and then take the portal on the dock on the left side to Azuremyst Isle. There is a portal that is Alliance only on the right hand dock, but the one on the more western dock is usable by the Horde. I did it as a 118. The 120 guards didn't see me while stealthed.

The Crystal Golem who accompanies the Mark is strong. You can vanish away from him, but if you are high enough, the Mark is easily killed. He's a 110. Target him first and blast him away before the Golem has a chance to kill you. Maybe there's an easier way, but this worked for me!

Kommentar von Samutz

This is still doable at 110 in 8.x, but you need higher than normal ilevel gear for 110.
I locked my level at 110 because I was only interested in finishing the Rogue class hall stuff from Legion and not doing BFA yet. While waiting on dungeon queues for the class hall quests, I quested in BFA anyway and "twinked" my ilevel up to 226 using quest rewards. If you don't have BFA, gear from Argus might be suitable, but the IF mark will be difficult.

Kommentar von Xlsfd

Just completed this quest on my rogue.

Exodar was super easy due to being literally deserted. Distracted the guardian and slew the mark.

Darnassus was deserted as well. Had to Vanish to drop aggro after slaying the mark to get away from aggroed NPCs.

Ironforge was... interesting. Died once to a level 120 elite who can see through stealth (one of the Thief Catchers). Found the mark within the seat (where the boss-level Alliance leader is located) and slew him after unlocking his armor. Vanished to drop aggro and took the Deeprun Tram.

Stormwind was the most intense. Lost stealth when I ran inside the auction house, slew the mark while being battered by guard NPCs and tried to escape while my Vanish was still on CD. Managed to survive until the CD was up due to Cheat Death despite being followed by an actual Alliance Player. Vanished and hearthed back to Dalaran to collect the mount.

Kommentar von violetta

I really hope whoever designed this quest got some kind of help because this shows serious signs of sick sadism

Kommentar von Godstompa

Why the !@#$ is the quest telling me to take portal to Shattrath....

Kommentar von wowrior

Fire whoever designed this #$%^ing quest. And they didn't even think of guards leveling up along with the next expansion so now you have to basically wait till 120 to even dare trying Ironforge or SW.

Exodar and Darnassus was fine because one is deserted and the other is stuck in Cataclysm levels where guards are level 60.

Ironforge and Stormwind? #$%^ you if you even try it where the guards will non-stop chase you and players will be all to wager to camp your corpse.

Kommentar von Pondandinio

This wasn't as bad as I was expecting given the recent comments but its still the worst of all the class mount quests (closely followed by having to grind Nighfallen rep and ancient mana for Paladin). I did this on a 120 alt with i422 gear and warmode off.

The most frustrating part was getting to all the places as the in game tracker is useless and the quest doesn't provide portals like most of the other class quests do. I've also only ever played Horde so didn't know my way around the locations but fortunately the quest tracker on the local maps is more useful.

To get to the Exodar, travel to Darkshore and talk to Zidormi to go back in time, then follow the travel instructions in Bursi's post.

Three out of four of the 'Marks' are 110 still and all the guards are 120. The guards are quite weak and you can stealth past most if you are careful. The last mark is 120 and there is a guard that you can't stealth past. I died here as I got overwhelmed by guards and players but managed to kill the mark first (I think i was fortunate that I'm on a low pop server). I decided to take a res hit from the spirit healer rather than corpse run across half the map so if you don't kill the mark expect to be frustrated!

Once you're done, don't forget to get the 3 other appearances for 1k resources each from Zan Shivsproket who is near the quest hand-in!

Kommentar von joshsimard

I did this in 8.3 as a 111 Rogue.

It was tough. All the 120 guards can see through your stealth, so it was a lot of corpse running.

For Exodar, you can corpse run your way to the bottom of the ramp (I think I died twice getting there). You can hide in stealth in that large room and wait for your target to patrol to you. Blind the big golem with him and kill him. Then I recommend running out, taking the portal back to Nordrassil, even if you get killed on the way out.

For Darnassus, I was able to sneak through without aggroing any 120 guards. Most guards were much lower ( level 60 I think ). When you get to your target, there will be a bunch of other 110s in a party. Just pop Cloak and nuke the target. I took res sickness and hearthed from here.

For Ironforge, I had to do a lot of corpse running. Tons of guards it's impossible to get in without dying. Make your way to where your target is. When you get to the room, there is a downstairs hallway inside you can hide in without worrying about 120 patrols. From that hallway, Shadowstep to your target while in stealth. I was able to stay stealthed without attracting any guards. Then just pickpocket him and unlock his armor. Now get ready for all the guards to jump you. I ended up stunning him, popping Vendetta, popping Evasion, and then just bursting him as fast as possible. Was just able to kill him before I died to guards. I then took res sickness and flew to the final target.

For Stormwind, fly above and aim for the AH. You want to minimize the number of corpse runs here because the walk is very far. I had my corpse right beside the target in the AH. (one note that I didn't see commented on here is that your target is your level. In my case, the target was lvl 111) Now there is a guard who annoyingly patrols in the AH. What I ended up doing was resurrecting, blinding the guard, then bursting the target down. The other auctioneers are lvl 120, so they will kill you when they get to you, but she is pretty weak herself.

Hope that helps any level 110s who feel this is impossible to do until max level. It is doable, but requires some strategy and a lot of corpse running.

Kommentar von zingzangbing

For getting to the Exodar from Teldrassil, stealth to the portal on the dock and you will be able to click on it. As soon as you arrive stealth again. The guard is blind for a couple of seconds. The directions to take the boat are incorrect. The boat just sits there and never moves.

Kommentar von xaaav1

I've just managed to succeed today using Subtlety as specialization at level 50 with pre-shadowlands armor and an ilvl 115 weapon from the scourge event. I am by no means a very agile or fast player, this means if I could do this, you can too. :-)

For all combats expect at Orgrimmar I was in stealth mode - used distract when I could to dismiss guards - then symbols of death/shadowblade then shadowstrike and usual rotation and evasion as soon as guards were coming. Cheat death talent really helped too :-)

1) Silvermoon: I died twice trying to pass the initial guards. I died as far as I could to finally ress in the court where the mark is followed by a guard. I distracted the guard then that was an easy kill

2) Undercity: after several deaths, I flew above the terrace and the canals and managed to kill the mark once she was moving between the table on the right to the table in the middle and the guard was to the right side. Killed in no time

3) Thunderbluff. Waited for patrol to be out. Pickpocketed the armor, then the mark ran but I've managed to kill it anyway due to rupture applied just in time

4) Orgrimmar: the hardest. Did it at 5:30 AM because it's inside the auction house. As soon as you resurrect, guards will attack you right away so we need to sustain damage enough seconds to kill the mark. Best strategy was to resurrect to the left side of the mark (her left side) and set focus on her: evasion, symbols of death/shadowblade, secret technique. Cheat death helped. Mark dead

Then back to Dalaran to claim he mount and don't forget to purchase variations of the mount form the gnome located in the same room.

I hope it helps.

tl;dr You have to be max level to do this quest.

As of Shadowlands the guards are 60 and see you without issue @ 50 before you can sap them. Get to 60 and then come back and do these quests.

Kommentar von epicmike

This might be quite fun at max level. At lvl 51 it was an absolute !@#$ show, if you're patient and wait until you're lvl 60 before attempting this you'll probably have a much better time.

My way to go Exodar;

(If there is an active portal to Darkshore at Zuldazar go directly there.)

If not;
Go to Orgrimmar
Go for Mount Hyjal portal
Fly to Darkshore

When you reach Darkshore;
Talk with Zidormi
Fly to Teldrassil
There is a portal to exodar at /way 52.39, 89.46

Hey, at least it's not a scenario.

Kommentar von Flamingdeath

My stubbornness led me to disregard what others here wrote and think "how bad could it really be?" on my 51 rogue.

Honestly? Not that bad. Maybe a bit of luck with target or guard patrolling, but overall I started at 6:25pm from Orgrimmar and finished the quest in Dalaran at 7:15pm after 6-7 deaths. Level 60 guards are the problem, so do what you can to avoid getting near them.

Contrary to what others said, I WAS able to sap guards in some cases, other times I would get the sap but that would still be close enough to cause their partner to come for me. Vanish dropped aggro in MOST cases, not all.

As others wrote, take the Org portal to Mount Hyjal, fly to Darkshore and ask Zidormi to "Can you show me what the world was like before the burning of Teldrassil?", manually fly across the water gap to Teldrassil, take a portal on a dock walkway to Exodar (the only portal you can interact with), and run down into Exodar to complete the assassination, the mark is low level and able to be 1shot, and being escourted by an elite the same level as me who has truesight. I just ambushed the mob and then vanished in an area away from guards.
Try to get out of Exodar on foot, and take the portal back to Teldrassil where you can fly over the city (high up to avoid patrolling flying guards) to the npc and death from above their butt, another low level, 1-shottable mob.
Find a safe spot and Dalaran-hearth out, I took the portal to Org, portal to Twilight Highlands and mount to Ironforge.
The Ironforge target is in the Ironforge King room, you can fly to the room without aggroing any guards, but getting next to the mob WILL aggro the guards, even in stealth. You need to pickpocket him to get a key, use the key on him to remove his armor (using key removes you from stealth), then kill him. Having read wowhead comments I was able to do this on my first attempt. Fly through the door, land next to him, vanish which thankfully dropped aggro from the guards, sap him, pickpocket, have bags open ready to use key, 1 shot him, and then get as far as you can towards the deeprun tram entrance as possible. Getting to the tram sucked a bit for me with a few deaths on the way.
Exiting the deeprun tram I sapped 1 guard, sprinted out past the other, dove into the pond and vanished, losing me aggro. I flew very high over SW to the Trade District auction house, waited for vanish cooldown to come up in case I needed it on the way to the target. This target took a little longer to kill, maybe 4-5 attacks, not sure why. Accepted my fate: death, by dancing with a blinded guard while players finished me off. Take the ress sickness, Dalaran-hearth, and forget this quest ever existed.

After completing the quest, walk a few steps forward to Zan Shivsproket who will sell you 3 recolours for 1k order resources each.

Shadowlands update (patch 9.1.5):

You can actually do this with a level 50 toon. I did it with an alt and full heirloom set equipped. It needs a bit of strategy, more time to spend and a bit of RNG or "luck" let's say. It can also vary based on your realm population and main cities player activity.
Bear in mind that every lvl 60 guards will ignore your invisibility when you step close to them.

Exodar: Go to Darkshore and speak to Zidormi if the time is set to Legion/BFA to bring it back when Teldrassil was intact. Fly across the thin limb of the sea towards Teldrassil and take the portal for Exodar located on the left bridge of the small village, guards at the bridge should be lvl 50 so you can sneak/ignore them. When in Exodar, head towards the entrance and go down the path leading to the interior zone, as soon as the world map shows the interior of the Exodar you should be able to see where the target is based on the star that appears on the map. For me, it was in the Trader's Tier but he patrols around so it's not the same for everyone.
Here is the first bit of luck that you need, in order to avoid 1 of the "walk back to corpse run" your best bet is to avoid the patrol that goes up and down the initial path, if you pick the right time the patrol should not be in your way here. The next couple of guards you'll need to avoid are at the bottom of the descent into the Exodar. I have a goblin rogue, so I skyrocketed myself sideways to avoid passing in between the guards but it's possible that you can use Gliders Kit to do the same. Next, you'll need to head to the target and I'm not familiar with the place but it's probable that you'll need to get past some guards in tight corridors, and here you have to take your time in case you die to run back to your corpse and gaining ground, it should take AT MAX 2 runs to get past the guards if you plan wisely. Stay as far away as possible from lvl 60 guards and kill the target that will be lvl 45. You can ignore his golem guard.
Darnassus: Easy peasy, fly there and kill the right target at the party, no lvl 60 should be around to annoy you here.
Ironforge: This is tricky. Fly right inside the Ironforge ALWAYS KEEPING YOURSELF AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE TO THE CEILING; doing this way, I avoided aggroing every single lvl 60 guards at the ground. You can stumble upon some flying patrols but you should be able to get far from them and get out of combat.
The target here is well guarded and on top of that, he also wears armor that you need to remove from him in order to kill him. So the strategy I used was to fly inside the building where he is and as soon as you get in you head left down the corridor, reach the wall and die since you'll have aggroed the whole Ironforge. Run to the corpse and resurrect inside the corridor where you will not aggro any guards. Turn auto-loot on and while stealthed sprint to the target and fast pickpocket him looting the key he holds, now you die again the last time. When you're back in, ress inside the corridor again and this time you need to spam the key item as you sprint to the target, do this correctly and you will have successfully removed his armor and he will be stunned, now throw everything you have at him and kill him quickly before the guards kill you. I needed to do this once so I don't know if the key will remain if you die before killing him. Take the resurrection sickness and head towards Stormwind.
Stormwind: This will be the toughest and the longest one. When ress sickness is expired, fly above stormwind, and when you are directly on top of the target head down to it. You'll need to avoid flying patrols that may dismount you here. The target will be inside the Auction House (yea, the auction house) so brace yourself. The strategy here that worked for me was to fly inside and die behind the auctioneer (your target). When I ran back at the corpse I waited the right moment when only 1 of the three lvl 60 guards that can patrol inside the AH is present and I resurrected. As soon as you resurrect you need to vanish, you need to do that cause the target now it's level 50 like you! And you will spend more time killing it, so the way I did it was to vanish and quickly Ambush her then I used vendetta and struck her with all I had. It could be a crit or not but I was able to do it in only one attempt. 1 of the guards will always be present so you'll die eventually but now you are done!

For some of them like Stormwind, your best bet is to pick a time when the player activity in these cities is low for your realm. I didn't but I was lucky enough to be ignored by players at the Auction House for example.

Now, this strategy can be challenging and is only for the lazy people like me who prefer to spend more time into this rather than level the rogue to 60, since when you are lvl 60 you can sneak past lvl 60 guards. But if you are like me, I hope this will help a bit with your questing. In the end, I enjoyed this quest for its uniqueness.

Kommentar von OrbitStorm

While this might not contribute any new information to this guide, I'd like to go on record saying that I have a few choice words for Blizzard for a forced-PvP quest design with excruciatingly slow travel times and graveyard runs. This is an absolutely awful series from start to finish.

Kommentar von AsheRer

If you're a Vulpera Rogue, your Bag of Tricks can one shot the Ironforge mark through his armour. Tried this on a level 52 character and worked fine. Really useful if you're lower level and struggling with the guards!

Kommentar von Zarathel

Update for doing this in DF. As a lvl 60, it was annoying as all the guards have been upgraded to lvl 70 except for the targets and a few of their henchmen, who are still level 45.
I think the easiest way to do this is to lvl your rogue to lvl 70, otherwise, no matter what strat you use, you will be facing lots of graveyard runs.
Having said that, I agree with other comments that this pvp-forced quest is really stupid and the person who came up with it and thought it was a good idea, should be stabbed in the foot.

Kommentar von SpitRaptor

Impossible to complete as a level 60 rogue. The 2 guards at the Stormwind's auction house entrance won't let you kill the last target.

Kommentar von Arkaeic

Yeah this one kinda sucks...
But remember, we are rogues! We can stealth and vanish. As a sub rogue I'm one-shotting the mark (definitely not the level 70 NPCs) at level 70 and a relatively low iLevel (334)
I still died 4 times doing this quest, and had to pay 512 gold repair each time. So this quest set me back 2048 gold...
I didn't have to deal with any players honestly, and I could vanish to avoid most NPCs, as long as they weren't the ones that can reveal invisible players.

Kommentar von Thetownbirdlady

So this was THE hardest to get mount/s out of all the class order halls. I suggest you either level til you're max or bring a friend that is maxed and let them pull all the guards on them. I died as a lvl 61 22 times even with their help. Good luck and watch out for the Stormwind target. She's maxed level compared to everyone else that is a target.

Kommentar von Auror

I was level 67 in DF with bad gear. Only in cities in the narrow corridors I was spostted by enemy guard NPC, so run over them and use Vanish and wait for it is CD.

Exodar: Fly to Rutheran village use portal on the pier. Run away from guard go to left entrance to the city. Just look at the map. My NPC was stationary and golem was scaled down aswell to 45 (you do not have to do any distracion at all) just run to them and kill them both.
Darnassu just fly to the city, check map and kill your target it was not even hard
Ironforge was hard one ( I did not know you can pick pocket him and remove his armor via this picked pocket item) Corins Schlüssel. He starts runnig and pull all NPC arround to help him. But with lower armor it is easier. I have killed it even with out armor removal.
Stormwind: just fly there over the auction house roof, use steah run in there and most likely you will die. So run back from graveyard and go back to the Auctioner, res yourself in his back. And try to use what ever you got fake death what ever and finger cross you should be able to kill it. I killed as 67 level with trash gear.

Kommentar von Facethievery1

I tried this on a level 50 character (level cap is 70) because you will one shot most legion mobs at 50...

Yeah do not do this unless you are level capped for whatever expac you are doing this in. You are sneaking into the actual capital cities (not special scenarios) which are populated by max level guards who will see through your stealth more often than not and will one shot you if you are not max level. Any war mode player (you'll only likely encounter them in SW) are also free to kill you too.

At level cap the quest is slow (as you are just walking on foot in the cities) but overall trivial as quest mobs are still level 45. The guards have relatively little health so they should not be an issue if you get caught. Even in Stormwind the majority of players are AFK by the auction house so I had zero issue with going in, killing the auctioneer, walking outside and mounting up in front of everyone.

As for routing: Take the portal to Hyjal in Org (or the BFA portal to Darkshore if Horde is in control) and fly/dragon ride to Rutheran village is on the southern end of the Teldrassil. On the western dock there is a portal to just outside the Exodar on the docks. Take this portal and head to the city. While the quest marker made it look like mob could be anywhere he was actually marked by a star on the map in Trader's Tier. Lillian will start talking with fully voiced lines when you get near the target. He is one shot by any attack.

Lillian will tell you to go to Darnassus now. Simply back track to the docks and take the portal back to the village. Near the flightmaster, there will be tree roots with a pink glow. Walk into it and you will be warped to the city. The quest icon makes it clear where you need to go. Kill the mob and make your way to Org.

I took the zeplin in Org to Stranglethorn then took a flight path to New Kargath in the Burning Steppes. From there fly to Iron Forge and make your way to the quest marker and kill the mob. You can pickpocket him to remove his armor and one shot him. Vanish and make your way out of the city and start flying to Stormwind in the south. You will want to land relatively close to the trade district (blue roof buildings) as your final target will be in the auction house. If you have a high alliance pop server, consider doing this part of the quest in the morning when less players are around. Kill your target and you're done. If you get killed by players just take the res sickness and hearth to Dalaran.

Kommentar von xLunacyx

Quest markers told me to go to Shattrath for some reason. Just go to exodar the regular way from Darkshore/Teldrassil.

Kommentar von AuronN

Pro tip for lower levels: use Evasion, especially in Stormwind - you get 10 seconds of immortality, enough time to get the kill.

Kommentar von LunarD3ATH

Ugh... I won't say this is the reason I didn't get this mount sooner, it's mostly that I just thought the mount was kinda lame and I don't play Rogues much anyway, but wow is it stupid that they can't even be bothered to give you a portal to the location. You have to take the long way for no other reason than because Blizzard hates players and, as usual, loves to waste our time with mundane crap.

Look, I get that it's the WORLD of Warcraft and that travel is sometimes inevitable, but no one is having fun flying to Darkshore to deal with time travel nonsense so we can see the right version of the place we need to see in order to get to the portal to travel to the location that we're going to probably be one-shot accessing.

Is this the class fantasy? Sneaking into cities and killing NPCs? Maybe. The long flight paths and actual overpowered NPCs who can wipe the floor with you, probably not so much.

This whole quest should be removed from the game. If you're not max level you're #$%^ed.

Kommentar von Deadmaussz

It took some time but it was not very hard, i'm lvl 71 on this rogue (max level is 80) what i did is just accept that i die a lot but eventualy i'll get it... just get as close to the target as you can... and when you die walk all the way to the body and try to get closer (explore the area/route while a deal spirit walker and mark the target with skull) eventually you just accept the rez next to the target and kill asap. Then just die again and release and talk to the spirit healer and on to the next target.... the targets were level 45 so if you are above that and can kill him in a couple of sec it's not hard it just takes some time.

So basically i only attacked the target and no other npc because they were often scaled to level 80.
