oh come on you saw it and didnt walk thru? not to mention read the quest text?

Comment by hppa

The first in a chain of quests to increase your gear a bit to outland-level.

Comment by Arkham

Is there a WotLK equivalent to this quest?
I mean, this is the direct order to go through the Dark Portal and enter Outland; are there any quests where someone tells you to step on a boat/zeppelin to Northrend, or are you just expected to do that without any prompting?

Hola estoy intentando saber cómo conseguir la cadena de quest A través del portal oscuro la cual supuestamente empieza en el tablón de mando del jefe de guerra o en Warlord Dar'toon (en inglés) en Tierras Devastadas, cerca del Portal Oscuro (que te teletransporta a Península de Fuego Infernal). Si alguien sabe cómo puedo conseguir esa cadena de quest se lo agradeceria mucho, por que llevo meses y meses buscando el modo de encontrarla y no lo consigo.
Muchas gracias.

Hi! I´m trying to find the quest chain Through the dark portal which starts in the Warchief's Command Board or in Warlord Dar'toon NPC in Blasted Lands, near the dark portal. If any one knows how to find this quest chain, pliss answer my post, thanks. I´ve been looking for this quest since a long time. ^^'

Where can i get this one. I need 1 more quest in Hellfire for my achievement and am trying to start here.

Comment by Reignac

They really should have named this quest "Beyond the Dark Portal" instead. Such a missed opportunity for a callback.

Comment by Tenjen

oh...so you're leaving now huh?

just going on through the portal.

Just gonna ignore that other quest to take care of the demons? no no its no problem. we have plenty of reserve guards i guess. You've just hit lvl58 and you're excited, i understand.

/message from Warlord Dar'toon

Comment by hyyalvin

This quest seems to be removed since 6.0?

I tried to get this one using 2 roles. One directly went to Dar'toon when reaching lv58.
The other cleaned all quests in Blasted land and reached lv60.
Neither characters can obtain this quest from Dar'toon now.

I think maybe its bcz now the dark portal is linking to Draenor not outland anymore?

Seems warchief's command is the only quest to lead you to the oulland now...
Anyone can confirm that?

Comment by Wyr3d

This annoyed me.

My char got redirected from Silithus (which, after you run through all the available quest-line, simply dies without continuation) to head for Blasted Lands, which I assumed was for reasons of the Dark Portal.

Heading to portal, I found that the above quest was not available. I figured maybe they linked it as a needing a pre-requisite, as they wanted players to check out what they'd done with the place.

But nope. A few hours later, all quests in Blasted Lands completed, and my char is left stranded in a Blood Elf encampment, wondering where to go next. A trip to the Dark Portal, and nope - that quest is still not available.

Why remove this quest? The "Warcheif's Command" board version still exists - but that would mean a trip all the way to Orgimmar and back. Why remove the breadcrumb quest that already existed in this zone?

I put in a ticket with Blizz to find out whats going on with this nonsense.

EDIT:

So looks like Through the Dark Portal is simply broken for the moment, not removed. Support got back to me fairly quickly (within minutes while I wrote this post D:) on this, and awarded the quest to my char for me. So although it's kinda broken, it is still obtainable if you want the 250 Thrallmar rep - as the board only awards 10 Orgrimmar rep - if you simply ask for help ^^

Comment by Bryynne

This Quest does not seem to be available anymore.

Comment by Shadow12000

Still broken and not showing up as of 6/14/2016. Luckily the Adventure Guide does give the Warchief's Command version without having to go all the way back to a main city, but as someone else said, it's only 10 Orgrimmar Rep rather than 250 Thrallmar Rep.

Comment by swedengamer

As of patch 7.1.5, I tried getting this quest from the NPC right outside The Dark Portal. It is no longer there. I am playing a Blood Elf Frost Mage that just hit lvl 58, but the npc doesn't give it to me. I did however, get the quest from the adventurer's journal, but I am still sad this quest is no longer obtainable.

Comment by JediCat

As of 7.3 this quest seems to be unavailable, even in the Time Traveled Blasted Lands. However, the 2nd quest in the chain Arrival in Outland was available in Hellfire Peninsula anyways. As well, the 5th quest in the chain, Eradicate the Burning Legion, was also available from its quest giver. This quest may be required for completion of some kind, but if you are looking at it for per-requisites to unlock other quests, it is unnecessary.

Comment by K3v1n

still unavailable in 8.0..

Comment by SFFCorgi

Head directly to Eradicate the Burning Legion after either being transported to the Hellfire Peninsula side of the Dark Portal by the portal room mage, or by travelling there under your own steam and running through. All the other quests in the chain previous to Eradicate the Burning Legion have been broken.

Burning Crusade: Through the Dark Portal

Travel through the Dark Portal and find Lieutenant General Orion. He awaits your arrival on the other side, in Outland.

Description

For years the Dark Portal loomed silent... forgotten. But it is silent no longer.

After stopping the demonic assault here, our forces breached the portal and met the demons on their own ground!

Now, we are locked in a savage war, and there are some who think we might not win. So it is our duty, our grim pleasure, to battle the fiends of Outland and ensure our victory, <name>.

If you would help us, then report to Lieutenant General Orion at once. He awaits you in the Outland...
