        Stop being sore. Rogues can stealth for a reason. That reason being that because we only wear leather, we can't keep up very well against anyone wearing plate, and because we don't have any decent ranged attacks whatsoever, we can't keep up very well against casters from a distance either.

        If rogues couldn't stealth, they would be the whipping-boys of WoW. But we can, and we're not.
        Get over it.

        It does amuse me however that Gurubashi arena fights always seem to end up with a stealth-off in my experience.

            Pallys, not necessarily.  I've actually been able to beat most pallys I have to fight.  Warriors, typically they pwn us.  They pwn pretty much anything (arms that is).

            But... IMHO, this chest, and anything in it, is definately not worth the trouble you will more than likely have to face to get it.  I worked for it once, and said screw it after that.

          One, it says you gotta be level 35 to start this quest, but i see every rogue twink with arena grand master, maybe even two of them. Does that mean you get it right out of the chest every few times?

          Two, it does (italics) come from the chest right (italics)?

          read the quest, you CAN get it at 19, but its lvl 55, you gotta collect 12 arena masters (which you probably get from the chest which will take A LOT of time.)

          Short John Mithril is in the arena stands opposite the entrance to the Gurubashi Arena.

          The chest respawns every 3 hours, remember that your time and the server time may be different when planning to go there.

          A tip to getting the chest;

          Rogues: Hide out on the edge, wait till the battle gets thin, sap the last person, get the chest and run.

          Hunter: Same as rogues, but use frost trap instead.

          Druid: Wait till the last person is standing in stealth, if they were in a hard fight, take advantage of that and pwn them.

          Pally/Warrior/Shaman: Just dominate at the place, it's hardest for you probably.

          Mage: Same as hunter/rogue, but use Polly Morph.

          Warlock: You might be able to pull a fast one with fear, but it's harder then some other classes.

          Priest: Basically the hardest for priests, stay out of the fray and jump in at the end, if you can fear them and grab the chest, go for it.

            The above is correct except for one thing: warlocks should send their succubus in to use seduction before fear runs out.
            That gives you about 20 seconds to grab. Oh, and if you have one of these and want to get another (usually twinks), I would assume that the trinket itself would protect you from interruption when trying to loot this, so you might want to use it just before hand.
            Not sure though.

              This is because the quest Curse of the Tides is currently broken.  When you try to use Caitlyn's Dagger on the altar in the Vile Reef, Short John Mithril yells out "Ah, hits the spot!"

              It can be won by anyone at any level really, just depends on who is there at the time. I have plenty of characters who have "won" the chest in Gurubashi and they're below lvl 20. :|

            If im not mistaken, if ur a pally and you time it right cant u just bubble and try to open the chest first and snatch the loot?  I think that this should be fairly easy for pallys to obtain.
