[WOTLK] The Missing Diplomat - Cannot Complete

[jimmybrancaccio]

Current behavior:

After obtaining The Missing Diplomat quest (https://www.wowhead.com/quest=1265/the-missing-diplomat) and heading over to Sentry Point. You can see and talk to Archmage Tervosh but nothing happens.

Expected behavior:

You should be able to walk into the tower, maybe walk around inside a little which will mark the 'Sentry Point Explored' as completed which will then allow you to talk to Archmage Tervosh. Here's a YouTube video I found which shows what should be happening (start watching at around 5:10):

Steps to reproduce:

1. Obtain quest The Missing Diplomat (https://www.wowhead.com/quest=1265/the-missing-diplomat)
2. Walk or mount up and get over to Sentry Point
3. Enter the tower at Sentry Point and Archmage Tervosh should be there, if not, wait a few minutes, he should show up.
4. Entering the tower should be enough to trigger the completion of Sentry Point Explored which in turn should make the question mark over Tervosh's head yellow.

The core change proposed above would do the job, however this quest currently works in TBC because of this change here I believe: https://github.com/cmangos/tbc-db/commit/0507d98106b6f748c85e23660a7ab173a6cd49b7#diff-7bb3b090ddfcf8db095c6fb5b7ff99f2R3

Maybe change was intentionally left out from here for some reason, @Grz3s ? https://github.com/cmangos/wotlk-db/commit/61b205c35710a191db0e5af083bc6ce1892d36a8

I will say, I'm not 100% sure my way is accurate, it was taken from another core/DB mostly.

no idea to be honest... it does the job... Fix added: https://github.com/cmangos/wotlk-db/commit/b1345b5696ce3cfad64a256053b33d8ee0e70711

Can be closed...
