As far as I can tell there’s no set pre-requisites to start Deaths of Chromie scenario. I went up to Image of Chromie in Legion Dalaran, clicked on the Chromie quest to go talk to her in Dragonblight. I even used the portal that opens up in Halls of the Guardian.
This is a fresh 120 boosted VE hunter. Reddit, Google, and Wowhead searches don’t bring this up as an issue but it’s obviously an issue. I’ve done the starter quests for Artifacts and hunter class hall.
edit: when I go to Chromie in Dragonblight she has no quests for me.
Help!
Sometimes there are hidden pre-reqs for quests that aren’t obvious at first because “everybody does that anyway” at the start of the expansion. It doesn’t get apparent until something like boosts come along where people are skipped over big chunks of stuff that oh, actually you did need to do X to unlock Y.
I just checked on my Shadowlands boost (a Draenei Shaman) and she was able to take the quest from Chromie in Dalaran, use the Wyrmrest Portal, and Chromie was there as expected and offering the scenario quest. So presumably there is something yours hasn’t done yet that makes it different.
But my boost has completed her order hall chain, unlocked Legionfall and done the Argus chain though. When you say you’ve done the starter quests, how far did you get? My guess would be that you have to get at least as far as having your first artifact and being asked to choose (and actually choosing it) a “first zone” for Legion questing, because a lot of stuff seemed to trigger from that back in the day.
Another possibility is you have something totally unrelated going on that is phasing Wyrmrest Temple for you. It is odd you say Chromie has no quests at all for you. Does she not even have her original Wrath quest (Mystery of the Infinite)? Are the other dragon leaders offering their Wrath-level quests? You may need to turn on Track Low-Level Quests on the minimap to see.
I did her 2 Wrath quests, I have my first Artifact and first zone from the scouting report. I even went as far as getting Honored rep with Wyrmrest Accord. I’m doing the Argus stuff now.
It’s kinda crappy that a freshly boosted toon has to run through all the hoops like this. I’ll progress through my Order Hall quest line. I did the falling star from Khadgar. The only thing I have not done is unlock the Nightfallen questline in Suramar. I’ll do that here in a few minutes and see if that unlocks Chromie.
My main can do Deaths of Chromie but I wanna get Timewarped Badges so I can visit the Time shifting vendor by AV to “boost” my gear a little more.

This is probably it. As you get the quest to start the stuff with Chromie from Dalaran inside the Violet Citadel. And the quest to start the Nightfallen Questline phases the Violet Citadel until you have done the part with Khadgar and the arcane ball.
Resolved:
Freshly boosted toons have to go through the quest series with Khadgar first. United Isles or whatever it’s called. Do the Argus starter chain up to going to Argus. Finally, make sure you have at least 1 Artifact quest line done as the Nightfallen quest line to unlock Shal’Aran done.
Did all that and poof, Deaths of Chromie scenario is unlocked.

Good to hear you got it worked out.
I will just add my boost has not unlocked Shal’Aran (I like to leave that chain at the first quest for a permanent free teleport down to Suramar) and was still able to start the Chromie stuff so that one part is not required.
yo I got the chromie quest from the image of chromie in dalaran but it says i have to get chromies rep to time hopper. I did the repeatable quest from chromie but i didnt get any rep. how do i do this? all i want to is to unlock the scenario.
im on a fresh toon and chromies not even in legion dalaran to talk to for this.
I have almost completely completed all the suramar quests , i have unlocked all 3 of my hunter artifacts and have unlocked the justacar travel ports… still no chromie quing… i could pick up the quest “chromie” but that’s it nothing else…
In the last 6 months I have gotten at least 3 characters to Timelord status with Chromie and am very familiar with how to start and how the scenario works.
I am having problems with one character, Pendegrast/Zul’jin, currently 54 Blood Elf Paladin who does not get the quests. I have another 54 who can do Deaths of Chromie just fine but probably got max level during Legion. Pen has his Dalaran Hearthstone and has opened up Argus and Suramar. I have not yet completed the starting mission board quests but am doing that now.
I was able to get the Chromie quest directly from Chromie in Legion Dalaran, did the only option I had (the original quests) but am not given further progress on the scenario. I have also done most of the low level/original quests. I have the portal open for me to go to Wyrmrest, Chromie does not give the travel option. I have tried abandoning and restarting the quest. Logging out of game complete, /reload… all the standard sort of things.
I tried coming through WOTLK to Wyrmrest and noticed that as I approached, Chromie showed as “Ambassador of the Bronze Dragonflight” but after speaking the title came off. This will reset with /reload with the same results, when I try to talk/access the quests the title comes off.
After a couple of days I tried another character on the same realm, Phluffie, a 60 pandaren (horde) rogue who leveled solely by pet battles in WoD and MoP and who has done extremely little in Legion. He has done none of the Khadgar quests but has opened up his Class Hall enough that he is done with the original missions. He took the same quest with no problems and was given the scenarios. He can also transport via Chromie.
I’m not sure what the bug is, I am doubtful that working my mission board will correct it but will report back in a couple of days if it seems to be the issue.
Foot in mouth time – I thought I had a series of Class Hall missions, after I finished the first 2 minute one, now that the second 1 hour? mission is done, I am able to interact with Chromie!!
Starting the scenario/sequences now.
