TheWoWDBThis scenario is idiotic if you play it as "team Sylvanas". I can barely accept having to kill lots of guards to get to Baine so that things look plausible. But once one gets there, and the "traitors" are surrounded and unable to get out, I have to kill the various forces, the battle mages, destroy the dampening crystals, and kill the Sunreaver instead of turning on Thrall, Jaina, Saurfang, and Shaw? What exactly is gained from looking "believable" in this situation? If the goal is to let them escape, don't send additional forces. If the goal is to lead them into a trap, don't force me to help them.

If you're confused about how to attack the crystals, Jaina will break the shields in phase two, so just focus on killing the guards and mobs. Then Jaina will break the shields; attack each mage and click each crystal, following Jaina counterclockwise.
When you turn the quest in to Lor'themar in Newhome, he quotes this:
"It stops when you turn from one another and walk away..."It was originally said by Taran Zhu in Throne of Thunder questline to both Jaina and Lor'themar after they accidentally met each other at the palace and nearly started a fight. One could say this phrase was the first step to the de-escalation of tension between the Sunreavers and Silver Covenant, and later between Alliance and Horde as a whole.
Considering where the story appears to be heading right now, I would say it's quite fitting that he cites it.

Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Old Allies
Sylvanas Windrunner was once my ranger-general. Now she is my warchief. Through peacetime and war, I followed her orders. Until now. Baine is a noble soul. His execution would drive a blade into the very heart of the Horde. We must save him, <name>. It is the only way to preserve who we are.
