Freshly boosted character unable to receive Hunt for Harbinger quest

I boosted a toon about two days ago on horde side to get ready for the next xpack. I start off in Valdrakken, with my questlog saying to continue the campaign, i need to accept the quest “Explorers in Peril” in the waking shores. I quickly dismiss this part, as I really wanted to get ready for prepatch event and need to complete Hunt for Harbingers. I port to Org, no quests auto pop when i get there. I assume, maybe its locked behind some of the main campaign, even though i cant find any information supporting this. So, I check the map to find where Explorers in Peril is. Nothing on the map, not even a regular quest marker showing that quest. I fly all around waking shores, looking for this quest to accept, and find nothing. So I think, maybe some of the other main quest lines need to be completed (ie Embers of Netherstorm). I complete that, port to Org, still no auto quest for Hunt for Harbingers.

Is there something im missing that i need to complete? I checked on my alliance toons, since I completed the campaign on alliance side, and the Hunt for Harbinger isnt showing up except for the ones that I had logged in during that patch release with the Hunt for Harbingers. The rest, no auto pop when i get to SW.

I hope there is some helpful information on this issue as I want to get my horde toon ready for pre patch events and apparently some of my alliance toons being locked behind a questline that is currently bugged? is making it extremely difficult for me to enjoy the game until next patch.

Thanks in advance! Let me know if anyone else is having this issue!

I am also having the same issue. I am not receiving the quest on either of my level 70 toons. One has completed the DF campaign, and the other is a fairly new 70.

Its good to know that someone else is having the same issues and that its not just me.

I hope they can quickly hotfix this because come Tuesday, it will be a sad day if we cant join in on the pre-patch activities.

I"m having this issue, too. Not sure of what to do. wanted to be ready for the pre-patch event tomorrow…

(in professor putricide’s voice) GOOD NEWS EVERYONE!
I logged in today and I was granted the quest line for the prepatch event! No issues so far and I am at the point of taking the portals to past events. Lets hope this will be the same for all that had this issue!
