The Imposter

Grapple up the Lion's Rest cliffs, sneak through Stormwind City to the SI:7 courtyard, and then kill Detheroc.

• 2nd Grapple Point reached
• SI:7 Courtyard reached
• slain
• Speak with Mathias Shaw (Optional)
• Meet with Taoshi in the Chamber of Shadows

Detheroc has 7's finest snipers on all of the rooftops. We can't mount up and we can't fly. There are grapple points above so that we can move up the cliff.

We've also setup hay bales to hide in along the likely routes to SI:7.

We just need to stealth in and kill Detheroc. Once we get up there, we'll separate to increase the chances of at least one of us making it through the city.

Good luck,.

You shall be granted the title: Shadowblade

You will also receive:

You did it! Mathias Shaw is back in charge of 7 and you prevented an all-out war between the Alliance and Horde.

The rest of us agree, you've proven yourself an invaluable member of the Council of Shadows and the Uncrowned.

Congratulations, Shadowblade !
