This quest has made me disconnect twice while trying to play the boardgame. Gave up and will try again later.

Comment by Helpersson

If you leave the game early and get stuck in your chair, don't worry, you just have to click on your 'Exit' icon (it's the red, curvy, downwards-pointing arrow; same one that you use for exiting vehicles or requesting an early stop between flight points)

This is the kind of character depth that we've always wanted to see in WoW. This quest was so simple and yet so good at immersing you in the story. Loved the references and the character reactions!

Just go afk and lose if you keep getting DC'd, it counts aswell

Comment by TheRazielim

Unsure if this actually matters or not, but I d/c'd like 5x attempting this, then I had the idea to just... slow down. Made me think of that bug with Skyriding where sometimes if you take off and try to do too many inputs, it'll kick you off.

Instead of slamming through my pieces and working their moves instantly, I just took a few seconds between swapping pieces and using their abilities. Not sure if that was what did it, or if it just decided to work, but I finished it without d/c'ing.

Faerin has altered dialogue here for Dracthyr players. Normally:

A DRAGON? You're just casually friends with a legendary beast known to scour lands and grant wishes?

For Dracthyr:

A DRAGON? I mean, <name> here is clearly draconic, but a full, true, dragon? A legendary beast known to scour lands and grant wishes?”

Apparently she doesn't consider dracthyr to be true dragons!

Comment by Seiarra

When speaking to Faerin about the Arathi Empire's mainland, she will say this to void elves:

Particularly you, <name>, for embracing the darkness as you have.

Love these little nods toward one's race and class, keep it up blizz.

There is a little exit button just above your action bars on the left in my set up

This was a nice quest. More of this, Blizzard!

The game piece wasn't clickable for me. I logged out and back in and I could click it.

Comment by Soremac

If you're stuck in the chair, you can right click your player frame and select leave to get off the chair.

Strategy for the people who are unsure: You're switching pieces back and forth as they are on CD. You wanna move your knight piece up to the enemy piece and blast range spells on it. Heal during cds.

I'm guessing that the zone campaign needs completed on the character you are trying to do this on. I don't have the zone completed and it's one of the last questlines i need for sojourner of hallowfall. But i have found the game pieces, but there's no quest and anduin and faerin are not present either.

Edit. I've completed the zone campaign and there is still no way for me to do this quest on my current character I'm playing on. Will check on my other characters that have full campaign complestion and report back.

edit 2. it is available on my shaman which has completed the entire levelling campaign naturally. also seems available on my monk which skipped the levelling campaing at 80 with brann. so it seems you must have the full levelling campaing for this story line to be available.

Comment by Jaymacibe

This right here is a perfect example of well done and designed quest. I really enjoyed it, not for the combat for the previous chain of quests but for the dialog and just seeing both characters grow. Its also this type of quest makes me wonder if Faerin and Anduin might grow more into their relationship in the future.

Comment by Domovoii

Cannot complete on my Tauren due to my head blocking the entire board no matter the angle. Please blizzard allow us to change the camera angle during these events.

It's fine! We can catch you up on the rest of the rules later! Resolving combat is the most fun, anyway! You and Anduin can team up against me. Perhaps with the both of you together, you'll stand a chance! <Faerin laughs.>
