What is happening:
On mounting the dragon, I die constantly, because the arrows from the elite soldiers reach me and kill me almost straight away. OR the dragon disappears in a couple of minutes, dropping me to my death. In combat, even far from the ballistae, my health bar stays at 100% but I see the UI red "Low Health" in about a minute, and I drop from the sky and die.... or just die, even if close to the ground. All my gear is now red, and my body is up on a cliff, and I cannot get close enough... so stuck.
What should happen:
As described in the wowhead link:
Fly your mount to the gates of New Avalon. Take it down to ground level and fire the Icy Deathbolts repeatedly as you move forward through the gates and into the town. You will take out dozens of soldiers and probably a few Ballistas (cannons). Your mount will take damage, but slowly.
Continue moving at ground level through the town until your mount's health is at about 25%. Go back out the gates and out of range of the New Avalon ballistas and soldiers, into the fields of Havenshire. Try to find a clear spot without an elite crusader around.
Dismount. Summon a new mount, which will appear with full health. Mount and return to New Avalon. Rinse, repeat as needed until you get your 150 soldiers and 10 ballistas.
