Well, imagine how surprised I was upon zoning into Utgarde Pinncle to see yellow exclamation points on my mini-map. I'd been soloing Heroic: Utgarde Pinnacle off-and-on every few days trying to get the [item=44151], and had never seen them before, so this quest is new to 4.3.

Also, curiously, the quests Junk in My Trunk and Vengeance Be Mine! have been reset, so I was able to re-obtain them and re-complete them. I imagine that similar things are true for the other Wrath of the Lich King dungeons.

I have soloed [npc=26668] on a variety of my lvl 85s. She is quite easy. But, for my Mage, I could not aggro her. All of her minions were still sitting on the benches. I could not trigger her scenario. I really was not too concerned as I tried to aggro her every mount run. I finally decided to drop the quest and re-acquire it. That did the trick. As soon as I hit her room, she started her dialogue with LK and I killed her.
