A really easy way to do this if you're undergeared, can't find a solid group, can't kill a lot by yourself etc, is to kill the four packs of Shadowheart Fiends around 60, 21 by Xanzith the rare spawn. Each imp has 78k health and gives 1% of the quest progression bar, just realm hop around AoEing all of them for a quick easy daily.

Important: if you realm hop to a raid group, be sure to leave after aggroing the imps and before killing them, you don't get quest credit in a raid. You will stay tethered to the realm until you leave combat.

UPDATE:
There was recently an issue with the quest that has since been addressed. With that said, players who were working on this during the time of the fix will find that they are unable to complete quest progression. If you experience this, you are encouraged to drop the quest and reacquire before reattempting. Please note that you will lose any progress you have made towards this quest. This should only be necessary once. We apologize for any inconvenience!

Hey guys, we’ve discovered that the following bonus objective areas will NOT count towards The Time to Strike event quest due to a bug:
• Assault on Ironhold Harbor (Horde : Alliance)
• Assault on the Temple of Sha’naar (Horde : Alliance)
• Assault on the Ruins of Kra’nak (Horde : Alliance)
• Assault on the Fel Forge (Horde : Alliance)
• Assault on the Throne of Kil’jaeden (Horde : Alliance)

So until this is fixed, you should venture to other bonus objective areas in order to complete The Time to Strike. Sorry for any inconvenience!
