TheWoWDBthe fact that you need a champion with minion swarm counter for all of these, and you dont get the first one until AFTER THIS QUEST, is kinda poor planning on their part.

I completed 3/5 and for this next one, I can't bring the mission down to 8 hours. Every other class, according to my guild, seems to be able to do that.
To bring it down I need a follower with blizzard and from what I can tell, we don't get one until after we complete this quest. So, it seems that the last 2 would be 16hrs each.
If anyone knows of a way to bring them down, let me know.
Shadowlands Update:
This is the last quest you can do in your class hall until Level 45. The next quest will not be available while leveling your alts.

Description
Archmage Vargoth seems to be mixed up in something dangerous, not that that's unusual for an archmage of his caliber and experience! The Arcway Vaults may be where he's headed, but we should investigate all leads in order to get a better idea of what he's up to.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Archmage Vargoth's Retreat
Archmage Vargoth has been absent for a while. You may have a look around his living quarters here in the citadel tower, <name>. Kalec will escort you there. I will hold out hope that our esteemed colleague is merely up to his usual eccentricities.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Kalec's Plan
Your champion was unable to penetrate very far inside the Arcway Vaults due to the heavy legion presence around it. Hopefully you will have better luck following Archmage Vargoth inside. Kalecgos will be waiting for you on the ridge overlooking Felsoul Hold.
