If you are a mage, you can definitely solo this quest by sheeping the Courier and then aoe down the 4 elite bodyguards as shown by Faxmonkey.

You can also solo this quest as a priest by using Mind Control on each of her bodyguards separately, let them die while under MC and then run away. Once all the bodyguards are dead, pull her toward the Argent Dawn's camp North of Blackwood Lake (not Light Hope's Chapel) and have the NPCs there help you kill her. The funny thing is that if you are still holding aggro, she will chase after you but she will be daze since 6 lvl 59/60 are wacking at her. Once she is daze, it's pretty much over and you can kite her however you like.

A word of caution: Don't try to kite her and her 4 bodyguards to the camp because the 5 elites are just too much 6 non-elites can handle. I tried this before, and the bodyguards slaughtered all the NPCs.

Just a few notes...

The quest notes that the courier travels TO Tyr's hand, so the best way to run into the courier is to start at Tyr's hand and follow the roads to Stratholme. I have confirmed that if the courier is killed, it will nearly immediately respawn at Stratholme.

Don't assume that just because you get a L70 friend to come that you won't get splattered. The bodyguards all do a charge/knockback if you are out of melee range, and they will chain charge you sometimes as well. (Guard #1 knocks you away, which causes #2 to charge, which causes #3 to charge etc) These mobs also do the standard paladin stun for 6 seconds, which they can chain as well. Bottom line, they are a pain if you don't have friends with you.

You *CAN* get the bodyguards to despawn *IF* you can get the courier far enough away from them. I was able to do this by attacking the courier when it passed through Corin's Crossing, and the guards were killing other mobs. I tossed some dots on the courier and then hit a swiftness pot to keep me outside of the charge range. I almost made (kiting the courier) it to the PvP tower nearest Light Hope, and when I finally stopped there were no bodyguards at all.

Make sure you don't let the courier reset. If it does, any bodyguards that were killed will repop. So you can't just kill a bodyguard and run off, then kill another etc. It won't work. Once the courier gets back on her horse, all escorts will respawn.

Unless you have a full group, I would suggest waiting for the courier to reach Corin's Crossing, since they will attack mobs there. Wait behind them until they aggro a few mobs at once, then engage. This way you won't have to deal with all of them at once. It won't buy you much time, but trying to take on 5 is a pain.

Rogues: You can distract and then sap to get the courier alone.
The distract: make sure you only get SOME of the courier/bodyguard party. If you get all of them, then the party "center" will not move on, and you will not have isolated the courier.
The sap: hopefully you have opened up the group so the courier is exposed on one side. Sap the courier after a few seconds. Do NOT do a cold sap (without using distract first). When I did this, the entire group stopped and waited for the sap to wear off. Continue sapping until the bodyguards are far away. I waited several minutes.

Then I started to try memoryjar's strategy to get him to the Blackwood Lake argent camp with gouge/kidney kiting. However, I realized by the time I was halfway there (I had started at the bridge due east of the lake) the guy was getting low on health and I could just blind/bandage and finish the job myself (this is at level 65, no poisons or pots necessary).

There was no sign of the bodyguards, and I had definitely been fighting for at least a minute or two. Maybe they all died at Corin's Crossing when the courier wasn't there to help them :D. However, don't take that as a guarantee that they despawn if you sap for long enough; the first time I tried this it was a little earlier on the patrol route (about north of Blackwood lake), I didn't feel like I was dishing out damage fast enough and I missed a kick, so I vanished, and right when I did that I saw the bodyguards running back. So try and do it fast, or just sap for a really long time. Good luck.

Right.

As for rogues, if you find that you don't have enough mojo to handle all of them at once: sap one bodyguard, wait about ~30 seconds for the rest to go ahead, kill the bodyguard. Repeat as necessary.

Open retralation, and bladestorm at the same time, wait last 1 second of bs to go for looting.

It takes 5 seconds.

Counts towards Loremaster of Eastern Kingdoms.

Doable by a level 70 Enhancement Shaman, probably any level 70 post-WotLK.

Is this quest gone now?

Just turned in The Call to Command on my level 59 paladin only to be informed that I didn't meet the requirements for the follow-up.

[Just as the body cannot survive without the head, the head cannot survive without the body. The defenses of the Scarlet Crusade's command inside Stratholme are almost impenetrable. We must, instead, cut the body out from under the head.

My Deathstalkers have been collecting data on the activity of the Crusade outside of Stratholme. Each day, a report is sent from their central command to Tyr's Hand. This report is the key, <race>! Find the Crimson Courier and recover that report. Return it to Nathanos.]
