Hiding in Plain Sight Rogue mount quest

For this rogue quest, you have to assassinate an NPC in each opposing faction capital city. The first one for alliance is in Silvermoon. The quest tells you to take the portal to Shattrath and then Isle of Quel’Danas. Just as my fatigue was about to run out, I was close to reaching the safe zone but I was running up against an invisible wall and couldn’t reach the shore, so I died and respawned at a graveyard in the middle of Eversong Woods. I ran back to my corpse, was able to revive and continue.

As a level 50, I barely could do the quest because the guards could see me from really far away, even ones without truesight. The level 60 rogue I was with had no problems stealthing past the guards. It is a level 45 quest and shouldn’t be marked as one. The only reason I was able to complete it was because of my level 60 quest partner.

So, in summation, the quest takes you somewhere with an invisible wall where you will die, and then takes you somewhere you can’t actually go because you’ll get killed rather quickly and is impossible to complete at the level state.

This is a S H I T Blizzard. Fix this or choose another npc.
Impossible to do. This is an class hall class for level 50 not 70 with level 300 gear

This does look like it is very much in need of some tuning.
At L54 I was able to do the first couple of steps - died at evey kill, but got the job done.
Then got to Orgrimmar and as far as I can tell, its not possible.
With multiple L70 guards in the AH, you die the instant you unstealth (have to shadow step through the wall as its completely impossible to stealth in past the guards). Figured Id try it again at 60. No change. Still insta killed, Xifa has levelled up with you so her ~12K HP is not going to be whittled down in <2 Sec you have to live before the guards gank you.

Yep still bugged, trying now and guards see me and 1 shot me

For real! Im on my lvl 60 rogue n cant even make it past the guards even stealthed i get 2 shots n dead this is th hardest stupiest class hall mount quest by far! :face_with_symbols_over_mouth:

Just did the undercity mark on a 62 pandaren rogue, you can fly through undercity close to the celling and not be one shot by guards.

March of 2025 and still completely borked. I’m level 70, guards are level 80, even if I talk to Zidormi and go back in time.

I’ve completed every other class weapons, hall, AND mount campaigns and NONE of the other 11 have this mechanic. NONE!

Why is this one an exception?

On top of being the exception, NONE of the previous workarounds published on various sites seem to work anymore. WTF?!?!?!?
