TheWoWDBI had a bug where I found all the other survivors before helping polymorphed Brann Bronzebeard and his quest marker dot disappeared from the map so I was stuck at 6/7 completed, had to drop quest and pick it up again and make sure to do him before the others.

I know Blizzard sometimes resort to killing off characters for shocking effect to cheat an emotional response out of players even though it will come off as cheap if not done appropriately; so let's just say I felt quite upset when I saw Ritssyn Flamescowl, a character I really liked from the Warlock Class Hall, dead after the destruction of Dalaran.
Plot twist! However. I appreciate that they actually "subverted" that trope by actually not killing him and instead used an in-game warlock ability (soulstone) to revive him, that was really neat.
While standing in front of the two dwarves trapped under the rocks I had to EXIT game and re-enter ((reload didn't work) in order to see that the rocks are selectable.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Slay the Saboteurs
The nerubians are everywhere, <name>. There are too many for all of them to be solely crash survivors. I've seen others burrowing up from the ground. This Queensguard Zirix was laying in wait here to overwhelm us. Let them know we are not easy prey. Cut them down!
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Erratic Artifacts
Dalaran housed many precious and powerful relics. Many of them were damaged in the crash and are now malfunctioning. They must be destroyed! Take this scroll. I have stored a shattering spell within it. Read the words aloud and its magic will be unleashed.
