If you follow the link to the "brand new rogue" given in the article and look up that character's reputation, it starts to seem odd. I know that many of the top guilds do old world raid content for fun, but Brood of Nozdormu and Zandalar Tribe revered in a matter of weeks? And Argent Dawn revered requires a good deal of farming, which you don't do if you want to get to the new content asap. Also, the reputation for the Alliance factions does not fit with the increased reputation from quests since 2.0.

I get the feeling that we are looking at a pre-BC character that got pulled out of retirement.

Anyway, strange story with even stranger protagonists.
