Midsummer Fire Festival F2P Solo: Deepholm Screws Me (Again)

Vyvenem

Veteran
Hello everyone! Hope you're all having fun. I cane out of retirement just to do the Midsummer Fire Festival solo. For anyone curious, the Deepholm bonfire is literally the only thing stopping you from 100% completion as a soloist. You can, of course, get a teleport there from other players and get your 100%, but that wouldn't be solo :/

To note, Deepholm has also locked me out of 100% solo completion of the Lunar Festival.

Also of note, I believe the daily "Striking Back!" is bugged and you can do all six versions of it each day (I think it's only supposed to give you one version a day that is based on your level). They are all accessible and scale to 20, awarding 10 flowers each per day! Correct me if I'm mistaken about it being a bug.
I also got a floating crown for my transmog!

Members here mentioned that last year, I tried it this year and it turns out its fully soloable as F2P now.

Hyjal is challenging, however and taking the fires from other cities need some imagination, but I did Deepholme on my level 20 Shaman, just make one get it to 20 take the quest line for Doomhammer jump down from the starting place and take the fire(glider helps). May want to set hearthstone from it there in case you need it someday in different events.

I'm on veteran account, technically, but every part of midsummer has done as F2P, since its more fun. : )
 
Is it still not possible for f2p to get to deepholm? I need it for this years Midsummer Fire Festival.
If not anyone can help me on EU Horde?
 
is this task that f2ps can do? (don't think we can go to deepholm solo)
Roll a shaman, start the legion class hall quests and get Where the Hammer Falls quest.
This gets you to Deepholm and you have a flying mount. Don't complete/turn in the quest.

For the achievements that require Deepholme, use the shaman. The shaman also needs to complete any other objectives that are in Cata zones (Twilight Highlands, Va'shir, Hyjal, Ulduum).

Plus, as a shaman, if at the engineering stage of your profession you can take Cataclysm mining/engineering to grind out those professions while not turning in the Where the Hammer Falls quest.

I usually make my hearthstone @ Deepholm as a Shaman because lorewise it's kind of neat as well as to level these two professions you have to use one of the other hearthstones, Dalaran or Garrison ones to escape and get the next parts of those to return to Deepholm and continue. Also, one can queue for dungeons and PVP while in Deepholm but be sure to be at a "safe spot" because it takes off our quest mount so death falls and into mobs can happen when returning from an instance.

This area will be interesting with the TWW changes to flying per se, because then a < level 20 Shaman could fly faster than the quest mount if basic flying is including in Deepholm area.

There are herbing nodes, but those seems to at this time requires 30+ to access as well as some of the mining nodes that spawn aka the Rich Obsidium Deposit also requires 30+ to access.
