    Dalaran pre event -3 minutes?

    I I saw someone say that the quest to Dalaran above Kara took three minutes. I've been putting it off to the weekend because I have 8 (so far) 100s, and figured it was an hour long quest chain.

    I'm assuming it was an exaggeration, but if it's of that order of magnitude, I will probably do them all tonight.

    It's also my understanding that this is the last pre event quest?

    It takes a lot longer than 3 minutes, although there isn't much action.
    You spend a lot of time following people around while they talk to you (though apparently the voice acting is bugged, so you have to just read it, lol), much longer than 3 minutes of just that.

    It isn't an hour long either though. Maybe 20ish minutes? I didn't time it.

    It also isn't the final quest in the chain, there should be an extension next week, but it is most of the material, I believe.

    It's around 15-20 minutes, at most. It's definitely not 8 minutes.

    There's also another stage we've yet to see on Live servers.

    It's fairly "meh". You follow khadgar around for a bit and then end up back in Dalaran where the legion is attacking it but you can't do anything to help because....well...they keep spawning and you literally get nothing out of it. Probably where we pick up next week. Hopefully more entertaining then the last part.

    Oh so it's a legit bug? I was SUPER disappointed with the lack of voice acting.

    Oh my god here's me thinking they were just being lazy and not voice acting something that would've been great to hear done ._.

    Too bad I've already done it on all my characters xD

    It should take about 15-20 minutes per character.

    This sounds about right. It is a fair bit of running around and the khara stuff takes longer than 3 minutes just with the chatting/lore stuff going on.

    From everything I have read, the voiceovers are working in EU but not working in NA. So if you are lucky enough to be in Europe, you're hearing it.

    You know that you only have to complete it once?
    Once you've done the full quest line on one character (which isn't possible now of couse) all of your characters get the option to skip it and teleport directly to Dalaran.

    Then you have heard wrong, good sir, we do not have voice acting either.

    even it if was 3 min long (and it isn't, at all), it'd be 1 minute too long. I'd very much prefer an hour long for the first char with an option to skip everything for the others. It gets seriously tedious after the 3rd alt

    It is 90% following Khadgar around and listening to him or Magni talk. Super boring. Magni had at least a little bit of interesting lore tidbits, but by and large this step of the leadup to Legion was ho-hum IMHO.

    It's not over yet. There's one last bit of the questline that leads directly into Legion.
