Guards bugged in Silvermoon City
As a sidenote to the Valentine's Day guide from earlier: Don't even bother to try the Love quests in the new cities. As Memory from Scilla notes, the guards there are completely bugged-- in Silvermoon, guards talk about Stormwind (I even, as a Blood Elf, had one try to speak Dwarven to me).Now, Drysc says it's a known problem that has to do with the event itself, so if the problem isn't fixed soon, it'll go away for sure by Thursday, since that's when the Love event ends. And there's no real point to tooling around looking for love in the expansion cities anyway-- Kwee Q. Peddlefeet isn't there at all (because not all players, I suppose, have the expansion, and that would mess up the popularity contest, since all the rewards are city specific). So this isn't exactly the end of the world, even though when you get Heartbroken, it may seem like it.
But for the moment, good luck trying to find your way around an expansion city you don't know. I was trying to find the Mage trainer in Silvermoon, and had to just give up and run back to the newbie area to train my new spells.

Did you try asking the guards in Silvermoon where the mage trainer was?

Exodar guards are also broken, and I think it's been going on since at least last week, before the love day nonsense even began

Well if the guards in Silvermoon are anything like the Exodar, they don't know crap about their city.
Tried asking one where the Jewelcrafter was...except Jewelcrafting wasn't listed as a profession.
And if you try asking the "helpful" Peacekeeper Draenai where the Battlemaster is in the Exodar, they direct you to look to Stormwind!

Yeah - I guess its difficult to ask guards for directions - especially in a topic called G"uards Bugged in Silvermoon City" - my bad ;)

Yeah, I actually had problems last night. I wouldn't be surprised if the patch this morning helped fixed things-- they may be working now.

Not working yet, Just signed off, all the guards in Exodar still direct you to everywhere in stormwind. Even the blacksmith supply person acts like a guard and won't sell you anything just give you directions, stormwind directions.

guess that explains why the Exodar guards kept trying to send me to the Bank of Stormwind...

the guards at the Horde post in Blade's Edge mountain (thunderlord hold or somethin) keep directing me to orgrimmar for everything...

Haha, I was just going to send you some screenshots!

I noticed this a few days ago, maybe sunday. I took screen shots but was too lazy to bring it up, I thought it may be fixed by the patch, though if its related to the holiday then oh well. I always wanted to ride the deep run tram too!
