It wasn't that bad on Horde side doing this either. I just did it on my druid.

For both Stormwind and Ironforge it is advised to get to the tram as fast as possible. Dying your way through Ironforge front gates takes a long time. Stormwind was easy when I took the tram.

Stormwind you should navigate via the waterway. You shouldn't have too much trouble, plus you can sneak right up and out of sight of the majority of players who are guarding it. I just went from the tram to the nearest water and swam the whole way popping up and taking that flag.

Ironforge is straight forward, run and die. It took a lot of times dying to do that. Eventually you get there. I would take the tram and save a lot of deaths that way. There is one or two patrolling guards. They seem to both leave at the same time so it is easy to time it.

Darnassus is hard to tell. Sneaking played a big roll in me figuring it out. I snuck on the boat, and then snuck up to the fire. It's outside the town so it should be easy to get to. Hiding beneath the bridge is advisable, but make sure there are no guards walking on it first.

Last thing to be noted is that I got 4950exp from each flame I turned in and then another 4950 exp from getting the crown. A nice 20k exp benefit is a fairly good motivator for most people.

I hope this saves a few people some trouble. Good Luck to you all.

Is this quest daily?
What I mean is, once you steal the flame and turn in the quest, do you get any quest from the opposing faction's capital cities flames anymore?

I would recommend doing this at an early/late time of day, mainly because you'll be facing a lot less Alliance then you would at peak hours. Of course, if you're a paladin you can simply run in, bubble, and grab it, but you still have to fight your way out! ; )

Stormwind was, after Ironforge a bit easier.

Were in IF I just died 20 times, in SW i did went through the front gate and with my lovely pally bubble made in to the moat in 2 dies.
After that it was easy, just swim to the magic quarter, and walk up the stairs, then over the brigde.
There's only 1 gaurd who will leave combat when you're near the flame.

The flame is around here:

Near the meeting stone for The Stockade.

Ok this quest is really $%^&ing me off
I've been corpserunning like 3/4 times with my mage now, and I can't f**king loot this flame! It's driving me crazy!
I rightclick and get "opening", when it's finished I take some small fire dmg but I don't get the damn flame! ffs
I'm really sure that I'm at the flame I'm supposed to loot, the one just outside Stockades
And I'm 100% sure I never got this thing, never got a "you receive item" message and I checked all my bags
Someone help me please because it's very annoying when I see alot of other hordies just looting this flame when I don't get it after 3 million attempts
