TheWoWDBOops, wrong weapon equipped...
I started "The Dead and the Damned" as my second Artifact and accidently started the quest without an appropriate weapon, only a fishing pole...
Needless to say, it was slow and didn't go well.
So I decided to leave the quest instance by walking back to the instance start area and catching a ride on Zeomus the mount back to Dalaran. I then picking up an old DK tanking weapon I had in the bank and was able to return to the instance by catching [npc=102403] again from Krasus Landing in Dalaran...
Have fun out there.

If you're struggling on Frost or Unholy to do this. Go to Blood Spec and Buy the 100g Broad Axe of Ebon Blade. The Scenario is much easier to finish as Blood
