Rescue Mission

Rescue Mission is a quest for level 10-45 in Niskara. It is step 6 of 6 in the Legacy of the Windrunners storyline, the final step. The quest's turn-in marker is in Dalaran at 65.9, 45.5. It rewards 27,650 experience and money.

Description

The demon has told us how to open a portal to the world where he says Alleria is being held. You and I can go through and see if there is any truth to his claims.

In case it's a trap, Magus Solgaze has given me a portal stone to get us back to Dalaran.

This demonic magic is anathema to the mage, so we must move quickly. I'm ready when you are, <name>.

For those of you who get stuck on Stage 6 and tried to Google the solution and just got told to submit a ticket I found the solution.

Make sure you have the talent [spell=120360], if you don't have it you can use one of the [item=141446] you would of just gotten from the Dalaran introduction quest right before choosing your artifact. Cast [spell=120360] through the wall on the right side of [npc=100397] and if your lucky you will hit [npc=101269] and force him to come through the wall and the eyes will become attackable, then you can finish the scenario as normal.

If you have to leave the instance for any reason, you can always return by porting to Dalaran and then heading to Krasus Landing where the flight point is.

From there, just jump off the ledge where the broken wall is and swim to the first tiny island that is part of the Broken Shore zone. Coords are 32.28, 32.35 and you will see the Portal to Niskara right there. If you see Ranger Adronis he will be standing right at the beginning of the pathway to the portal.

You can just run right through the portal, you don't have to click on anything.

Vereesa Windrunner keeps saying "Lead on, I'm with you" which in reality means "You go ahead and catch aggro while I'll passively stand AFK:ing behind you. Feel free to kick her from your party, she deserves it for watching Netflix when you're doing all the hard work.

Where to go
