Trying to do this quest in 11.0 and the Dark Ranger just turns hostile and instantly kills me, making me unable to finish getting the quest credit. Not sure why.

When Calia wandered off to the throne room saying "So many memories..." I followed her hoping for a little monologue once she got there... don't bother, she just despawns. You'll get your chance during the quest A Walk with Ghosts
Try dismissing any pets you may have out. Did this quest as a warlock and had my voidwalker out which was hostile to the Dark Ranger. Died and tried again after dismissing my pet and was able to complete the quest.

What to do
Description
By combining our knowledge and expertise, we've restored the surface of the Undercity to the Forsaken. It was only possible by setting aside our distrust and acting for the good of our people. Now it's time to make this council official. We are no longer the same undead that followed and served Sylvanas Windrunner. From here on, we lead ourselves, with the same spirit of independence and pride we've had since we reclaimed our free will. It's time for a new future, with new leadership.

Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Remedy of Lordaeron
The time has come. By the Light, I pray our plan works. Master Apothecary Faranell's wagons have reproduced the plague eater many times over, and the bats are ready to deploy them. If you see a place where our forces could spread even more of the remedy, you can signal them with a flare.
