Title.
I am unable to unlock Twisting Corridors, I did the quest today which was to find some totem from Bane which I got. After that, nothing.
After completing the quest for banes thing, I eventually was able to get another quest. There was no where to pick up the quest, and it randomly popped up when I entered the Torghast Tower out of nowhere. Don’t know why that’s the case.
Had I not needed to craft an item I never would have gone back in there this week. Might want to make it so that it can be picked up manually.

That sounds like Lest the Trail Goes Cold, Spellshocker.
Wowhead has some information on unlocking the Twisting Corridors.

So since this character is one week older than my paladin I’m not allowed to unlock the content for another week?
Is that actually correct?
Wow, no wait it’s 2 weeks. And my paladin is behind by a week. There’s no way that this is intended. Why can’t I just pick up the quests and do them? What is the point of time arbitrary time gate?
It is intended.
While I can’t speak for Blizzard if this is actually their reasoning, but we see players rush through everything in the first week, then sit around and complain about there not being enough content.
At “best”, they will sit in trade and troll with politics or link spam, and eventually get mad about being muted. At worst, they will cancel their subscription, and Blizzard is in the business of keeping people in the game. Is time gating the best solution? Maybe not, but if you have other ways to keep a large playerbase involved without it, then you’ll want to post your feedback in General, or the in-game Suggestion tool.

I am actually wondering the same thing.
I just saved Jaina Proudmoore from Torghast today on my Death Knight, I saw the wowhead article saying that the weekly timegate was removed with a hotfix that is apparently live on NA servers according to the official hotfixes page on the website but when I go to talk to Bolvar he offers no additional quests, neither does any other NPC and when I walk into Torghast nothing happens either.
I’ve tried logging out of that character and back in, and even restarting the client and nothing changes.
So are the timegates still in place? Or are they not in place? I’m really confused.

It only states some weekly delays were removed, but not which.
I would imagine it might be talking about the waiting between the looking for clues step and the actual rescue step, but not jumping from rescuing the previous prisoner directly to the next.
Hmm, that would make sense, although it’s extremely inconvenient, as there are many players in my shoes who have not kept up to date with the Torghast quests each week, and are now stuck several weeks behind.
Hopefully there’s some clarification provided soon on exactly what quests have had their weekly timegates removed and what people who have lagged behind can expect moving forward.
i completed the rescue jaina line today before this hotfix, i have no new quests showing up… my mate just now compelted the same line and got the new quest chain…
Blizz please fix
If you could provide their name and realm for the SFAs, perhaps they could look a bit deeper to see if there’s anything you missed over them.
Otherwise, you’ll want to follow up in the Bug Report forums for QA to investigate.
ahh true my mates name is Malganus - Frostmourne Alliance
There is more to unlock the Twisting Corridors than just freeing Baine and Jaina.

once you complete the quest to free Thrall you can then immediately pick up the quest to unlock Twisting Corridors.
