Jame`s Alliance leveling Guide
Jarroll Note: I did not write this. All credit goes to Jame. This s my personal use backup/quick reference for my own personal faster reference. If you are not me you should visit Jame’s forums where the original work was posted. You can find it at http://www.wow-pro.com/Forums/viewtopic/t=286.html. This is not intended to replace or replace his work. Again, it is simply a copy for my own personal access. Jame's Alliance leveling Guide Introduction: This guide starts at level 30. It is your task to reach that level on your own and it shouldn't be a problem, you can check the other leveling guides in our leveling guide forum for the earlier levels. The main reason why I don't want to start a guide at level 1 is because: 1. It's not so needed 2. Depending on your race/class choice you will start from different areas so covering them all would be a mess. This guide is optimized for FAST leveling with a minimum of grinding sessions. Quests are important, they give rewards and faction and are less boring than pure grinding, BUT sometimes some quests are really a time waste and we will be skipping those and replacing them by good grinding spots when it is necessary. Some people say that Grinding is always faster than questing, this is true in theory when you don't know which quests to take and which to avoid, and what is the best order to do them. With this guide, questing will be very efficient and much better than pure grinding. Follow each instruction carefully and you will see for yourself. The quests choices and order to do them are optimal so that you run as few as possible while doing the most possible and then turning several quests at the same time. This guide will be very useful for both veteran and novice players, and this is why sometimes I describe things in two fashion "In short" (for the veterans) and "in details" (for the novices). That way the veteran players can skip those "in details" paragraph if the "in short" one was enough information for them. So even the guide itself is optimized for the minimum reading possible, to save time! Let's get started immediately then! Everything described in this guide can be done solo (besides when I say otherwise). You can of course follow this guide while duoing, grouping, it's not a problem, it works too. Basic rules: 1. While traveling, kill everything that is on your way and gives experience (Yellow mobs preferably). 2. Spend your talent points so you do the most damage possible. (e.g: Priest should specialize in Shadow Talents, Warriors in Arms/Fury, Rogues Combat/Assassination, etc). 3. Don't waste your time trying to find groups for questing, you can solo everything that is described in this guide. Only group with someone when it's not gonna be a waste of time (e.g: meeting the person at the other end of the map to show him the way to where your quest is) 4. Try to always log out in an Inn when you take a break. 5. If I don't mention a quest, it means I consider it a waste of time, so don't take it thinking I forgot a quest here and there, I didn't :) . Also don't abandon a quest unless I say you should. 6. Sometimes I will be making lists of quest you should have before starting with an area, that doesn't mean I will list the whole quest log, JUST the quests that interest us for the moment. Recommendations: There's two/three addons you should have, this is not obligatory but this will be extremely handy: • Titan panel: It is a great addon with many useful features. But mostly because I use locations in my guide with coordinates (X,Y), and titan panel shows these coordinates. It also shows your average XP/Hour rate among other things. Download the latest version here. • Quickloot: Looting faster = time saving. Download the latest version here. Side Note: In case you don't know how to install add-ons, make a folder called Interface in your World of Warcraft directory (if there isn't already one). Then you open it and create a folder called Addons inside the Interface folder. Now every Addon you want to add goes directly into the Addon folder. For example you download and unzip Titan Panel, you drag the folder that's called TITAN PANEL (not Interface or Addons) into the new Addon folder you created. You restart World of Warcraft completely and it should be working. Shopping List: Every time you pass by an auction house, try to buy the following items: • • • 1X Patterned Bronze Bracers ~50 Silver 1X Frost Oil ~ 2 Gold 1X Gyrochronatom ~1 Gold These might not always be up for sale, so start checking early. The Guide: Chapter 1 - [Level 30 - 41] Journey from Thousand Needles to Badlands Level 30 • In Short: Go to Theramore by boat, in Theramore learn the new flight path, go to the Inn, make it your home location and get the quest [30] Highperch Venom, then go to Thousand Needles. • In Details: From Ironforge, take a flight path to Menethil Harbor, if you don't have that flight path, you'll have to go to wetlands and then run to Menethil Harbor. In Menethil Harbor take the boat to Theramore (It is the boat that stops at the southern peer). When in Theramore, find the Gryphon Master and get the flight path. Then go to the Inn, talk to the innkeeper and make theramore your home location. In the Inn you'll find an npc named Fiora Longears, get the quest [30] Highperch Venom from her. After that, go through Dustwallow Marsh by following the road northwest and then south to the Barrens. When in the Barrens, go south toThousand Needles, go down the great lift (don't attack the guard just run past him, take the elevator and keep going until he forgets you). In Thousand Needles, go west until you reach the border of Feralas, and find the alliance outpost: Thalanaar (89,45). Get the new flight path from there. Then go southeast along the mountain until you reach "Highperch" (14,32). Kill wyverns until you have 10 Highperch Venom Sacs. Get out of highperch and go further southeast along the mountain, keep going until you hit Roguefeather Den (27,51). It's grinding time! Don't worry, there will be a lot of questing after that, but you are gonna kill these harpies until those two goals are achieved: • • you hit level 31+ you obtain 25 Vibrant Plumes The harpies are lvl 28-30, drop cash and silk cloth. There are a lot of them and they respawn fast. (Make sure to kill the harpies that are down on the ground and those that are in the cave up on the hill) With the 25 Vibrant Plumes you can get 60 Tickets at the Darkmoon Faire, you can then trade 50 Tickets for a 14 Slot Bag, which is a big plus at this level (unless you are a twink). Sadly the Darkmoon Faire is not always available, check this Darkmoon Faire Necklace Guide to know when the Darkmoon Faire will be available, and put your Vibrant Plumes in bank until then. If you don't want the bag, you can either auction those plumes (they sell nicely) or save them up for your future epic necklace. Level 31 Go east until you reach the Mirage Raceway in the Shimmering Flats(80,77). Get the following quests there: • • • • • • • [30] Hardened Shells [30] Salt Flat Venom [30] Load Lightening [31] Rocket Car Parts [31] Hemet Nesingwary [33] A Bump in the Road [36] Wharfmaster Dizzywig You can find everything needed to complete those quests all around the raceway, do long circles all around it and kill everything on the way. Keep doing this until you complete all the quests, get 10 Turtle Meat and hit level 32. Grind on turtles in particular, they drop scales which sell nicely. Don't sell the Turtle Meat, put them in bank or somewhere in your inventory. Turn in all the quests and get the follow up quests : • • [37] Goblin Sponsorship [35] Martek the Exiled Before we leave, go south and zone into Tanaris. Go to Gadgetzan and talk to the Gryphon master on the other side of the town to get the new flight path. Hearthstone to Theramore, turn in the quest [30] Highperch Venom then get out of Theramore and follow the road northwest and then south to the Barrens. In the Barrens go north then east to Ratchet. Talk to Gazlowe in Ratchet, get the follow up [37] Goblin Sponsorship. Also talk to Wharfmaster Dizzywig on the docks and get the follow up [36] Parts for Kravel Take the boat to Booty Bay. In Booty Bay on the docks, talk to Wharfmaster Lozgil and get the follow up. Then go to the Inn in Booty Bay and make it your home location. Then go train new skills in Stormwind by gryphon ride (for rogues, there's a trainer on the 1st floor of booty bay inn). Visit the Auction house, repair, sell, buy 4 stacks of food/drink (of course don't buy drinks if you aren't a class with mana). Level 32 At level 32 the zone we will be aiming for is Stranglethorn Vale. Quest Gathering: • • • First of all get all the quests you can from Booty Bay. Get the quests in the Rebel Camp in Strangelthorn Vale (37,3). Then go to the Nesingwary's Camp (35,10) and get all quests there. You should have these quests: • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • [31] Hemet Nesingwary from Kravel at the Mirage Raceway [31] Supply and Demand from Drizzlik in Booty Bay. [31] Panther Mastery From Nesingwary camp. [31] Tiger Mastery From Nesingwary camp. [32] Investigate the Camp From Krazek in Booty Bay. [33] The Second Rebellion From Sergeant Yohwa at the Rebel Camp. [34] Bad Medicine Sergeant Yohwa at the Rebel Camp. [34] Raptor Mastery From Nesingwary camp. [35] Bloodscalp Ears From Kebok in Booty Bay. [35] Singing Blue Shards From Crank Fizzlebub in Booty Bay. [36] Hostile Takeover From Kebok in Booty Bay. [37] Krazek's Cookery From Corporal Kaleb at the Rebel Camp. [37] Goblin Sponsorship From the Baron Revilgaz on top of the Booty Bay Inn. [37] The Stone of the Tides From Baron Revilgaz in Booty Bay, prereq for this quest is given by Krazek in Booty Bay. [41] Scaring Shaky From "Sea Wolf" McKinley in Booty Bay. No need to take the Green Hills of Stranglethorn quests (the one with the chapters), it will just encumber your quest log for now. You will complete each chapter when you get the right pages. So while you hunt always look out for these: Hunting Step 1: Kill River Crocolisks which can be found all along the river in northern Stranglethorn Vale until you find 2 Large Crocolisk Skins. While you search for crocs you can also kill Young Tigers close to the river for Tiger Mastery. Step 2: Then kill 10 Young Tigers (or as much as you still got left) Tigers can be found mostly south and around the Nesingwary camp. Step 3: Kill Young Panthers, they are mostly found on the other side of the river to the east. (41,10). Step 4: Go further northeast to the Kurzen Camp (44,11) and kill 15 Kurzen Jungle Fighters as well as Kurzen Medecine Men until you get 7 Jungle Remedies (might take a while). Also you'll need a Fern Extract from one of the piles of crates scattered around the Kurzen Compound. Step 5: Once all 4 quests are done go turn them in (besides Supply and Demand, which you will turn in later) at the Rebel Camp where you get the follow up: • [38] Special Forces. Step 6:And at the Nesingwary camp where you get the follow ups: • • [33] Tiger Mastery [33] Panther Mastery Step 7: Go west until you reach a plateau (30,9). Up there you can find Panthers and Tigers. Kill 10 of each. Step 8: Further southwest on the plateau you should find Stranglethorn Raptors, kill 10. Step 9: Go south and down the plateau until you find the troll camp at Bal'lal Ruins (29,20) It should take a while to get 15 bloodscalp ears but it is a nice grinding spot anyway. So grind at this spot until you hit level 33. If you don't have enough trolls there is another camp northeast at the Tkashi Ruins (33,15). Level 33: Step 10: From the troll camps, go west until you hit the shore, and move along the shore towards the north until you find Crystal Spine Basilisks. If you run short on Basilisks, there is more on the lower plateau to the east along the shore. If there aren't any basilisks just go kill some trolls until they respawn. Kill basilisks until you get 10 Singing Crystal Shards. Step 11: After that, take a swim westwards until you hit the island at loc (21,22), you will have to go towards the middle of the island so the quest [37] The Stone of the Tides is completed, but be careful with the lvl 37ish elementals on the isle. Step 12: When you completed all 6 quests, go turn in the 3 mastery quests at camp nesingwary and get the follow ups: • • • [35] Tiger Mastery [36] Raptor Mastery [38] Panther Mastery Check if you completed any of the chapters of the Stranglethorn pages quests as well and turn them in if you did. • • • • Chapter I: page 1,4,6,8 Chapter II: page 10,11,14,16 Chapter III: page 18,20,21,24 Chapter IV: page 25,26,27 Make sure you repair and sell junk at the vendor before you go again. You will probably need a lot of space in your bags with the extra pages you will find. Step 13: Now you probably must be about halfway to level 34. It's time to go grind at Kurzen camp or on the Trolls, up to you. When you are 1 bubble away from lvl 34, warp to Booty Bay. When in Booty Bay. Turn in the following quests: • • • • • • [31] Supply and Demand at Drizzlik in the "Tan-your-hide-Leatherwork" shop. It is situated on the top floor and not too far from the inn in Booty Bay. [35] Singing Blue Shards on the ground floor in bootay bay inn. [35] Bloodscalp Ears [37] Krazek's Cookery [32] Investigate the Camp on the 2nd floor of the booty bay inn. [37] The Stone of the Tides on the top floor of Booty Bay inn to Baron Revilgaz. This should make you level up. Step 5: Get follow up quests: • • • • [36] Hostile Takeover [36] Some Assembly Required [37] Water Elementals [41] Venture Company Mining Note: If some follow up quests aren't mentioned it is because they aren't worth the trouble. Just take the ones listed above. level 34: Since you are lvl 34 now, go train if you wish to do so. Closest place to train is Stormwind by gryffon. (Unless you are a rogue, there's a rogue trainer on the 1st floor of Booty Bay inn). While you are on gryffon (or in Booty Bay), ask in general channel if anyone has any page you need, and trade your spare pages in exchange or just buy them, they go for 1015 silver on average. You can also check the Booty Bay auction house for missing pages. I suggest you even buy them overpriced (Offer 20-30 Silver for a page and you should get it quickly). The sooner you complete the page collection, the better for your bag space :P. Anyway, time to hunt again! Step 1: When you are done, go back to the jungle, follow the road north until you hit loc (39,22). And go westwards (towards the area north of Grom'Gol Camp). You should find plenty of Lashtail Raptors there. Kill them as much as needed for the quests. Step 2 & 3: When done with raptors, you should hit the river to the east and search along the banks for Snapjaw Crocolisks. At the same time you can start heading to the Venture co. Camp next to Lake Nazferiti and kill Geologists there (44,20), they drop the "tumbled crystals" you need for [36] Hostile Takeover. You can find crocolisks on both sides of the river, all around Lake Nezferati and all the way down to Mizjal Ruins. Keep killing Goblins and Crocolisks until you get both quests complete. Step 4: When done with that, head northwest until you hit the area in between Bal'al Ruins and Tkashi Ruins (33,15). There you wil find Elder Stranglethorn Tigers and kill 10 of them. Step 5: Once done, go to Nesingwary Camp and turn in • • [35] Tiger Mastery [36] Raptor Mastery Get the two follow ups and complete any chapter to get rid of pages taking up bag space. Step 6: Go northeast until you hit the Kurzen Camp, this time go straight for the cave there and kill Commandos and Headshrinkers. Careful the Commandos are stealthers. Step 7: When done with that go southwest to find Sin'dall. Sin'dall is on top of a hill at (31,17) right in the middle of Bal'al and Tkashi ruins. It is definitely soloable at lvl 34, just make sure all your long cooldown abilities are up. Step 8: Once Sin'dall is dead, head west until you hit the island you discovered before (21,22), and kill Water Elementals there until you get 6 Water Elemental Bracers. Step 9: At this point you should be getting close to level 35. If you are not, grind on trolls until you are about 3 bubbles of XP away from it. Step 10: When that is done, go turn in your quests at the Nesingwary and Rebel camps, at the Rebel Camp get the folllow up [38] Kurzen's Mystery. By now you should have completed your page collections or be close, if you aren't it's ok, we will be back in Stranglethorn Vale in about 3 levels and then you ll for sure complete it. Step 11: Warp to Booty Bay, turn in the quests • • • [36] Hostile Takeover at Kebok (inn). [37] Water Elementals at Baron Revilgaz on to of the Inn. Get follow up [37] Magical Analysis. [36] Some Assembly Required at Drizzlik (Leather-and-hide shop), Don't get the follow up. Go to the bank and get the 10 Turtle meat you saved since Thousand Needles, and make space in your bags in case you still have Stranglethorn pages. Time to travel! If you already know how to get there, go to Southshore in Hillsbrad Foothills (or take a Gryffon Ride) If you don't know how to get there: Take a gryffon ride to Stormwind, then use the tram or gryffon to Ironforge, then gryffon ride to Southshore or Arathi. If you don't have those flight paths, fly to Wetlands. From Menethil in Wetlands follow the road east and then north until you zone into Arathi Highlands; keep going north until you reach Refuge Pointe (46,46). Get the flight path there. From Refuge Pointe take the road west until you reach Hillsbrad Foothills. In Hillsbrad Foothils follow the road west and then south at the 3rd fork. Southshore is at loc (50,55). Talk to the Gryphon Master in Southshore. and bind at the Inn. You should be level 35 or close by now. Gather all the quests in Southshore, you should have: • • • • • [30] Down the Coast [33] Hints of a New Plague? [33] Syndicate Assassins [34] Costly Menace [36] Crushridge Bounty And [31] Soothing Turtle Bisque which you can complete immediately because you already got 10 Turtle Meat. You can buy the soothing spices from the <trade goods="""""""goods"""&qu ot;"""> merchant in the first house to the right when entering Southshore from the north. Don't bother with [34] Bartolo's Yeti Fur Cloak unless you are a Leatherworker or got a Leatherworker friend who can make a Hillman's cloak. You can buy a Bolt of Woolen Cloth at the auction house or ask a tailor. Level 35 Let's start with some Murloc slaughtering! Step 1: The murlocs are right next to the town on the western shore. Kill 10 Tidehunters and 10 Oracles. Step 2: Go turn it in and get the follow up. Go back and kill more murlocs until you get 10 Murloc Heads. Step 3: Go turn in the quest, get the follow up. Speak with Marshal Redpath in Southshore, get follow up and talk to Lieutenant Fahren again. Get the follow up [32] Stormwind Ho! Sell and repair (there's an armorsmith behind a small house next to the inn) Step 4: Time to hunt Nagas now. The ones you need are on the eastern shore, right next to the town. Kill 10 Daggerspine Shorehunters and 10 Daggerspine Sirens, go back to Southshore and talk to Lieutenant Farren again and get the follow up [32] Reassignment. Step 5: Now take a flight path to Refuge Pointe (Arathi Highlands). In Refuge Pointe get the quest [36] Worth its Weigh in Gold from Apprentice Kryten. Step 6: Go southeast until you reach the Go'Shek Farm (60,53) and find the NPC named Quae, she is looking over the Go'Shek Farm from the northwest edge. Talk to her and take the follow up quest [36] Hints of a new Plague?. You need to find and kill a Forsaken Courier and loot a Sealed Folder from him. In Short: The Forsaken Courier roams from the Go'Shek Farm all along the road up until the wall to Hillsbrad Foothils. He is lvl 35 and doesn't have that much hit points, but he has 4 level 35 bodyguards. Find a way to kill and loot the Courrier. You can do it solo at level 35, I've done it with 5 different classes and I've heard about other players doing the same. For instructions on how to kill the courier with a certain class, see below. In Details Now you need to find and kill the Forsaken Courier, he roams from the Go'Shek Farm all along the road up until the wall to Hillsbrad Foothils. He has 4 bodyguards, all level 35. There are many ways to kill it though, even solo at level 35. • • • • • • Warrior: for exemple, charge the courrier, hit Retaliate, use Intimidating Shout, kill the courier fast, loot it and then run away. Mage, burn him down as fast as possible, start from max range with Pyroblast if you got it, use ice root on the bodyguards, finish the courrier fast. Use a Health Potion if needed. Rogue, you can single the courier out. Use Distract so that only one guard stops while the rest keeps walking, then kill the guard solo, rinse and repeat until you get the courier solo. You can also just rush in the pack, hit Evasion and kill the courier quickly before evasion runs out. Warlock and Hunter: Send in the pet and burn the Courrier as fast as possible while your pet dies. Priest: Powerword:Shield and Renew yourself, be at max range, start with Smite, then a Mind Blast while the mobs run to you, then a Shadow Word:Pain. The bodyguards should be on you at this moment, use Psychic Scream, and keep on burning the Courrier with Mind Flay / Mind Blast. Paladin Just go for the courier and use your invulnerabilities. There must be a way for each class to solo this at level 35, use creativity, potions, and long cooldown abilities. If you don't manage it, try to get a partner to duo it. Step 7: Once you got the Sealed Folder from the Forsaken Courier, go back to Quae (60,53). Turn in and get the follow up [37] Hints of a new Plague?, where you have to escort Kinelory. For the escort, one word of advice: Let Kinelory be in the front, always walk behind her, when mobs aggro her, help her take them out one by one. And make sure they don't run far. Kinelory is quite a tank and can also heal a bit. If you let her be in front and don't let runners create trains, you will complete the quest easily. Step 8: When completed, talk to Quae and get the follow up. Then go southwest of Go'Shek Farm to the troll village (63,65). Kill trolls until you get 10 Tusks. Kill Witch Doctors until you get 4 Medicine Pouches. Further inside the village and to the south (68,75) you will find a cave. Inside the cave you will find Witherbark Shadow Hunters and get the Hunter Knife you miss to complete the quest. Step 9: Once completed, run back to Refuge Pointe in Arathi and turn in the troll quest. Hearthstone to Southshore, and talk to Phin Odelic and complete the quest "Hints of a New plague". Sell and repair. Step 10: Go north and follow the road north until you zone to Alterac Mountain (96,47). A bit further up and to the right you will find Soferan's Naze (58,67). Clear the Syndicate camp there, and in the middle of the camp on a table you should find parchments named "Syndicate Documents". Right click one of them and get the two quests [34] Encrypted Letter and [34] Foreboding Plans. Then go northwest towards the snowy mountains where you will find Crushridge Ogres, they drop the Dirty Knucklebones you need. When you run short on ogres, you can go to the southwest where you will find the area called "Corrahn's Dagger" (47,76). There you can kill Syndicate Footpads and Syndicate Thieves as well as Mountain Lions and Hulking Mountain Lions. I suggest you go back and forth from this spot to the ogres whenever you run short on mobs. Do this until the Ogre and Syndicate quests are completed. Then there's more Lions further to the west at "The Headland" (38,55). You should keep going westwards while killing lions until you complete your quest. At this point you should be close to level 36, if not, grind on ogres / syndicates until you are about 2 bubbles away from level up. Step 11: Go northwest towards Dalaran until you reach Archmage Ansirem (18,78). Turn in the quest [37] Magical Analysis and get the follow up [37] Ansirem's Key. Then warp to Southshore or run there if Hearthstone isn't ready. Turn in the 5 quests in Southshore. Get the follow up [34] Letter to Stormpike from Loremaster Dibbs. Don't get the other follow ups. Congratulations on level 36. Level 36 Step 1: Take a gryphon ride to Ironforge, go to the hall of explorers northeast of the Gryphon master and get the quest from Roetten Stonehammer [33] Reclaimers' Business in Desolace. Also turn in the quest [34] Letter to Stormpike at Prospector Stormpike in the Hall of Explorers, don't get the follow up. Then go to the inn of Ironforge and bind yourself there. Step 2: Fly to Stormwind. Repair, sell stuff and train new skills. Also, go turn in [32] Reassignment, at Major Samuelson in Stormwind Keep. (72,16) Step 3: Fly to Booty Bay. In Booty Bay, turn in the quest [37] Ansirem's Key at Catelyn, she is on the 1st floor inside the Booty Bay in. Get the follow up [39] "Pretty Boy" Duncan. Step 4: Take the boat to Ratchet. And then: • • In short: Go to Desolace In detail: From Ratchet, follow the road to the west until you reach Stonetalon Mountains. In Stonetalon Mountains follow the road west/northwest until you are past Sunrock Retreat and reach Mirkfallon Lake, keep following the road until you can go west in between two cliffs. Follow this path, go south through the charred vale and you will arrive in Desolace. When in Desolace, go to Nijel's Point . To access it you have to go further southwest until loc (67,16). Talk to the Hyppogryph master. Then get quests: • • • • • • [31] Centaur Bounty [33] Vahlarriel's Search [33] Reagents for Reclaimers Inc. [35] Strange Alliance [39] Down the Scarlet Path [39] The Karnitol Shipwreck. We are not taking the quest [35] Brutal Politics because we decide to be friendly with the Gelkis Centaur Tribe which involves lowering faction with the Magram Centaurs. It doesn't really matter anyway if the Magram centaurs hate you. Circuit 1: 1. Let's start with [33] Reagents for Reclaimers, kill Hatefury Satyrs in Sargeron, southeast of Nigel's Point (75,20). 2. When you got 10 Hatefury Claws and 10 Hatefury Horns go west to the area just north of Thunder Axe Fortress (56,17) you will find a ruined caravan there. Look for Malem Chest. It's not actually a chest, rather a crate. Open it, get the follow up. 3. Go back to Nijel's Point and get the follow up. Turn in the Satyr quest as well but don't get the follow up (huge time waste). Sell and Repair. 4. Go southwest and past Thunder Axe Fortress. Then go west towards the sea until you see a big tower. Azore Aldamort is next to the tower just north of it down the cliff (38,27). Get the quest [33] The Sceptre of Light. 5. From there, go southwest to the shore towards (36,30), you should see the mast of a sunken ship. The Ravnitol Chest is on the shore at (36,30). Open it, and get the follow up quest. Right next to the chest is a black book named "Rackmore's Log". Click it and get the quest [36] Claim Rackmore's Treasure. The Silver Key drops from Drysnap Pincer or Crawler. The Gold Key drops from any Slitherblade Naga. Take a swim and kill Drysnaps around the ship until you get a Silver Key. It takes about 10 kills on average. Then further north go kill Siltherblade Nagas until you get a gold key. 10 kills on average as well to get a Golden Key. 6. Once you have both keys, go east to the Thunder Axe Fortress. Enter the fortress through the main gate (56,30), go kill the Seer (he has one guard) on top of the 1st watch tower to the left past the gates. Loot the Sceptre of Light. Then go in the big building and talk to Dalinda, get the follow up quest [33] Search for Tyranis. Tyranis is in the other building (the smaller of the two), southwest of the main one. Kill Tyranis and loot the pendant. Go back to Dalinda. Before you talk to her, clear the whole building. After you talk to her she will start to walk out of the fortress, escort her and make sure she doesn't die. Warning: Dalinda is one of those stupid escort NPCs who don't stop when YOU are attacked. So let her in the front and make sure she gets hits first. Once out of the fortress she will run away and you will get a "Quest Complete" message. 7. Go northeast and back to Nijel's Point, turn in quests, get follow up [39] The Karnitol Shipwreck. Sell and Repair, next circuit is gonna be long! Circuit 2: 1. Go south to Kormek'Hut (62,38). Get the quest [39] Bone Collector (62,39) from Bibbly F'utzbuckle. 2. Then go west to the big tower and turn in your quest [33] The Sceptre of Light to Azore Aldamort. Get the follow up [38]Book of the Ancients 3. Go northwest and take a swim towards the Ranazjar Isle (30,8). Clear the eastern shore of the isle. You should find a chest in between a tree and the white building. Click it to complete [36] Claim Rackmore's Treasure. 4. Then clear yourself a path through the Nagas so that you can reach the statue on the northwestern part of the isle (28,6). Clear the way around the statue, get full health/mana and go click the statue twice. Lord Kragaru will spawn, a lvl 38 Naga. Kill it (soloable at 36) and loot the Book of the Ancients. Before you go, kill Slitherblade Tidehunters and Slitherblade Sea Witches until one of them drops Karnitol's Satchel. Takes 15 kills on average (Took me only 4 once, and another time it took 29 kills). 5. Swim back to Azore Aldamort get your rewards. 6. Now go southeast towards the Kodo Graveyard (48,55). Gather 10 kodo bones there, kill the Carrion Vultures if they are in the way. When you loot a bone there's a 50% chance a lvl 37-38 Kodo Apparition will pop up and attack you. You can run away or deal with it, up to you, they disappear after about 10 minutes. 7. Once you got 10 Kodo bones, run east to Scrabblescrew Camp (60, 61) and get the quest [34] Kodo Roundup. Go back to the Kodo Graveyard and use the Kombobulator Rod on any Ancient, Aged or Dying Kodo. Once you have one tamed, run back with it to the goblin, then right-click on the tamed kodo. Rinse and repeat 5 times to complete the quest. 8. When done with that, go southeast to the Magram Village (70,70) and kill centaurs until you are friendly with the Gelkis (exactly 50 Kills, 46 if you are human). You can check your reputation with the Gelkis Centaur Clan by opening your character panel ("C" key) and clicking on the reputation tab or just directly press "U" key. After those 50 Kills you should also have 15 Centaur Ears by now, if you don't, just kill some more centaurs. At this point you should be level 37 already. If not, you should keep on grinding on Centaurs until you hit level 37. Level 37 1. Go southwest toward the big arch (63,79). Kill 30 Undead Ravagers there. Beware of the Outcast Necromancers, interrupt them when they cast their summon spell. If not, they summon an Undead Ravager. :P 2. When done with the 30 Ravagers, from the big Arch, go west, stay close to the mountain on your left until you reach Gelkis Village. Then go northwest until you find Uthek The Wise (36,79). Turn in quest, don't get the follow up. 3. Take the road east / northeast and then north. Follow the road until you reach Kormek's Hut (62,38) and turn in [39] Bone Collector. 4. Then go north to Nigel's Point and turn in all the quests. Get the follow ups: • • [39] The Karnitol Shipwreck [40] Down the Scarlet Path Titan Panel XP rate results: This session started with the Satyr quest and finished right now after turning in all the quests in Nijel's Point. That was done with a level 36 character with average gear, solo, on a new server (no twink). I've tried it with 3 different classes and it works just as well. And there is still two quests to turn in, that's just to show how efficient the quest path of desolace can be when done the right way. :) Warp to Ironforge, go to the Hall of Explorers and turn in the quest [39] The Karnitol Shipwreck. At this point, you got 2 options: 1. Go to Scarlet Monastery. I highly recommend this, an instance run will slow down your exp rate (unless you get a good group going fast). But every 10 level or so you need some gear upgrades and instances are the best for that, Scarlet Monastery is a great instance, not too time consuming. And you already got the main quest. Go further in the Hall of Explorers and get [38] Mythology of the Titans from Librarian Mae Paledust. Repair, sell, check auction house etc. Then fly to Southshore, turn in the quest [39] Down the Scarlet Path and get the follow up [40] In the Name of the Light. Get a group together and go to Scarlet Monastery in Tirisfal Glade, follow our Scarlet Monastery Guide and you should be fine. 2. You don't like instances at all. In that case, go to the next step of the guide, Badlands. Note: Doing Scarlet monastery got me about 75000 XP. That's almost a full level, so I was level 38 and halfway to level 39 before going to Badlands. Level 38: Badlands: 1. You should be in Ironforge, if not, use Hearthstone, as you should still be bound there. Get the Patterned Bronze Bracers, the Frost Oil and the Gyrocronatom from your bank (or buy them now if you didn't yet). I suggest you buy 4 stacks of food/drink at least before leaving. 2. Go to the Hall of Explorers and get the quest [37] Ironband wants you! from Prospector Stormpike. 3. From Ironforge, fly to Thelsamar, if you don't have the flight path, run out of Ironforge, follow the road east and take the tunnel at the South Gate Outpost (86,51) You will be in Loch Modan then, follow the road northeast to Thelsamar. 4. In Thelsamar get the quest [39] Badlands Reagent Run from Ghak Healtouch in the alchemy supplies house. Then go southeast to Ironband's Excavation Site (65,65). Get the follow up quest from Prospector Ironband [38] Find Agmond. Then go southwest to Badlands. In Badlands kill any Buzzard or Coyote you find on your way. 1. Go south, past Hammertoe's Dig Site, until you find Prospector Ryedol and Sigrun Ironhew (53,43). Get quests: [35] A Dwarf and His Tools [38] Mirages 2. Go southwest and find Martek the Exiled (42,52) Turn in the quest and get follow up: [39] Indurium also get quest [40] Barbecued Buzzard Wings from Rigglefuzz. Note: Whenever you need to sell or repair, go to this spot. There is a goblin smithing supplier and it's the only vendor and repairer in Badlands. 3. Then go west and a bit to the north until you find Lotwil Veriatus's Camp (25,44). Get quest [37] Study of the Elements: Rock Get [37] Coolant Heads Prevail, turn it in, get the Follow up [37]Gyro...What? and turn in. 4. Just west of Lotwil Veriatus you will find a lot of Lesser Elementals. This is a very nice grinding spot, they are easy to kill and drop stones which you can stack up and sell to merchants for nice cash. (However, you should try to AH Solid stones, deeprock salt and Elemental Earth, they sell fairly nice at the Auction house). Stay at this spot until you get 10 Small Stone Shard and hit level 39. If you don't like elementals, or if the spot is already overcrowded, go east to Angor Fortress, and kill Dwarves. For those who didn't go to Scarlet Monastery this will mean a long grinding session, but this will also mean good XP rate and cash (and you need to get your mount soon!). Go turn in [37] Study of the Elements: Rock at Lotwil Veriatus and get the follow up. Level 39 1. Go east and a bit to the north to Hammertoe's Digsite. At (53,34) under a tent next to a big keg you will find a Crumpled Map on the floor. Click it and get the quest [35] A Sign of Hope. Then keep on killing Dark Dwarves until you get Ryedol's Lucky Pick. 2. Then go northeast to Camp Kosh where you can find the Supply Crate. (67,22) When you got the crate, go back to Prospector Ryedol south of Hammertoe's Digsite and turn in the quests. Get the follow up [39] Scrounging from Sigrun Ironhew. 3. Go south to Agmond's End and find a Battered Dwarven Skeleton (50,62), click it and complete the quest and get the follow up [42] Murdaloc. 4. Kill 12 Stonevault Bonesnapper and Murdaloc, you can find him inside the camp next to the Dwarven Corpse. Keep killing those Troggs until you get 10 Indurium Flakes as well. 5. Once both quests complete go south into the mountains and kill Rock Elementals at (40,73) until you get 3 Large Stone Slabs. 6. Go west to the ogre area named Camp Kagg (10,72), kill ogres there until you get 7 Scrap Metal. This may take a while. 7. Go north to Apocryphan's Rest (16,60) and kill Buzzards / Coyotes until complete [40] Barbecued Buzzard Wings and [39] Badlands Reagent Run. When that is done, go east to Martek the Exiled (42,52) and turn in the quests [39] Indurium and get the follow up [38] News for Fizzle. Turn in [40] Barbecued Buzzard Wings to Rigglefuzz as well. Repair and sell while you are here. Then go northeast and turn in [40] Scrounging at Sirun Ironhew. After that go west to Lotwil Veriatus and turn in the quest, get the follow up [42] Study of the Elements: Rock. You should be getting close to level 40 at this point, about 35000 xp to go normally, if you still follow the "kill everything on your way" rule. Go grind on Rock Elementals or Lesser Rock Elementals, Dark Dwarves or Troggs. There are a lot of Dwarves at the Angor Fortress. It's up to you. Should take about 1h30 of grinding. It went quite well for me, I was doing 41000 XP/Hour before I got to the grinding part. This is my XP rate starting from the moment I talked to Propector Ryedoll until level 40. So that's approximately 1 level and a half in 4 Hours. If you can do better, I would love to know! :) Level 40 1. At level 40 warp to Ironforge, train skills, repair, auction house, etc. Go get your mount if you can afford it (if not, you should soon, cause there is more elemental killing and grinding to do :p ) 2. When ready to go, fly to Thelsamar, turn in [39] Badlands reagent run. Go to Prospector Ironband and turn in. Then go back to the Badlands. 3. Go to the southwestern part of the map (17, 83) and kill Greater Rock Elementals until you get 5 Bracers of Rock Binding. There's another camp of Greater Rock Elementals further to the west past the Ogres (6,83). This will be hard because some of the elementals are level 44. Try to find level 42 or 43 ones if the level 44 are too hard for you. 4. When you are done, grind until you are about 5000 xp or less from level 41. Grind on Elementals, or Dwarves, up to you. Warning: This is a long grinding session, if grinding is too boring for you, then by all means do something else, go to Scarlet Monastery a few times for exemple. Also one of the reasons for grinding here even though we got a few quests we could do in Stranglethorn Vale is that I want to save these quests for later so we can do the whole rest of Booty Bay quests in one run. So right now we are already setting up a very juicy XP session for the future. :) 5. Once you are 5000 xp away from level 41, go to Lotwil Veriatus, turn in [42] Study of the Elements: Rock and get the follow up [42] This is Going to Be Hard. Then go talk to his assistant Lucien Tosselwrench. Get quest [42] Stone is Better than Cloth and complete it, as you should still have the patterned bracers. This will make you ding level 41. This grinding sessions was tested by 3 different characters, the XP/Hour rate was in between 22000 XP/HOUR and 26000 XP/HOUR depending of the class. And there is still a nice little XP boost to come when completing the following steps. So grinding isn't bad at all, of course it's not as good as an optimized quest circuit, but it's still decent and you will see for yourself, it will bring a nice sum of cash. The stones from the elementals stack and sell nicely at the merchant, plus, they drop Elemental Earth which goes for at least 50 silver each at the AH. Same thing with the Dwarves, they drop Silk and sometimes Mageweave. Sell Silk / Mageweave at the AH and you'll get 'rich' quickly. Level 41 Complete [42] This is going to be hard and get the follow up. Talk to Lotwil and complete the quest but BEFORE you accept the next step from Lotwil, be warned: A level 45 Elemental will spawn and you will have to defeat it. At level 41 this is hard but possible for every class. Just use every long cooldown ability you have as well as potions. Loot "Lotwil's Shackles of Elemental Binding" from the Fam'retor Elemental and go turn in the quest to Lotwil. Congratulations, you are done with Badlands and with the first Chapter of this leveling guide! Warp to Ironforge and sell / repair / auction etc. Chapter 2 - [Level 41 - 50] Journey from Stranglethorn Vale to Hinterlands Introduction This guide will take you from level 41 to level 50 in a breeze, but you can actually start with it at level 44 for example and catch up with the guide really quick, it's not an issue. I suggest you read the basic rules and recommendations I listed in the Chapter I of my leveling guide if you haven't already. No matter if you are a beginner or a veteran world of warcraft player, if you follow this guide carefully you'll find yourself XP'ing at an hillarious rate. So please give it a try and then say how it went for you! Shopping list: • 2 Elixirs of Fortitude Level 41 1. Go to Stormwind. Get quest [40] A Meal Served Cold from Angus Stern in the Mage District inside the bar named the Blue Recluse (41,89). A quest timer will start, but don't worry about it. Then go to the Dwarven District and get the quest [43] In Search of the Temple (Elite) from Brohann Caskbelly inside a house in the Dwarven District (63,24). 2. Stranglethorn Vale: Fly to Booty Bay, make the Inn your home point and get the quests: o [37] Goblin Sponsorship from Baron Revilgaz in Booty Bay Inn (Top Floor) o [41] The Bloodsail Buccaneers from First Mate Crazz just past the "Old Port Authority" building (First big building when getting off the Boat). o [42] Skullsplitter Tusks from Kebok in the Booty Bay inn (2nd Floor). o [43] Akiris by the Bundle from Privateer Bloads next to the Bank. o [43] Zanzil's Secret from Crank Fizzlebub inside the Booty Bay Inn. o [45] Tran'Rek from Krazek in Booty Bay Inn (2nd Floor). In the Stranglethorn Vale category you should also already have: o o o o o o [38] Kurzen's Mystery [38] Panther Mastery [39] "Pretty Boy" Duncan [41] Raptor Mastery [41] Scaring Shaky [41] Venture Company Mining So here we are -13 quests to deal with. Let's get busy! Make space in your bags, repair and buy 2 stacks of food/drink (if you don't have that already, of course). For those who didn't finish the Stranglethorn Pages yet: this is your last chance, check the Booty Bay AH and ask in general channel for missing pages. If you got them all, take them with you. 3. Circuit 1: Run out of Booty Bay and take the first way left until the Bloodsail Encampment by the shore. Pretty Boy Duncan should be there (28,69). if not, keep clearing the camp until he appears. Kill Pretty Boy Duncan and loot Catelyn's Blade from him. While you have the camp cleared, look for a map named "Bloodsail Correspondence" on one of the barrels, click it and get the follow up quest. Go northwest across the bridge and keep going along the shore until you find some Nagas. Kill Naga Explorers at (24,65) until you get 10 Akiris Reed. Then go back to the exit of Booty Bay but this time follow the trail to the north. A bit further on the right hand side of the road you will find Elder Mistvale Gorillas (31,67). Kill Gorillas there until you get 5 Mistvale Giblets. 4. Run back to Booty Bay. Turn in [41] Scaring Shaky at "Shaky" Philippe on the peer and get the follow up. Turn in [41] The Bloodsail Buccaneers at First Mate Crazz a bit further towards the Inn. Get the follow up. Turn in [43] Akiris by the Bundle at Privateer Bloads next to the bank. Get the follow up. Turn in [39]"Pretty Boy" Duncan at Catelyn the Blade inside the Inn. Don't get the follow up, Get the quest [41] Up to Snuff from Deeg on the 2nd floor of the Inn. Get the follow up [43] The Bloodsail Buccaneers from Fleet Master Seahorn on the 2nd Floor of the Inn. Then turn in the quest [41] Return to MacKinley to "Sea Wolf" MacKinley in the house right next to the Inn. Get the Follow up [44] Voodoo Dues. Finally get the quest [42] Keep an Eye out from Dizzy One-Eye who stands to the right of the Booty Bay blacksmith house. (Left when entering Booty Bay from the tunnel). End of Circuit 1: Note: Of course, I had XP rest bonus this time. I unfortunately logged my characters out in Ironforge after I finished the first Chapter of the guide. But still, if you divide it by two you still get a nifty 31000 xp / hour (actually more because the XP gained through turning in the quests isn't affected by XP bonus). Repair, sell and restock food/drink up to 3 stacks. 5. Circuit 2: Get out of Booty Bay and go east towards the shore named Wild Shore. From there, go southwards while killing any Bloodsails on the way until you reach the 1st camp (29,80). Clear the camp and look for a map thingy named "Bloodsail Charts" or "Bloodsail Orders", If you don't find either, move on further south until you find a small boat ashore, check it for maps as well. Careful, the Bloodsail Warlocks really hurt, make sure you interrupt their shadowbolts if you can, and kill them fast then deal with their pets. If you are Rogue or Mage though, I suggest sap / polymorph on the warlock first, kill the pet and then the warlock. Now go further south until you find a bigger camp (27,82). This camp will be harder to clear, but it's possible if you do it carefully. Check the camp for Bloodsail Orders or Charts. Basically, the Bloodsail Charts and Orders can spawn at any of the two camps or at the boat. So check all three until you got both. Then wander up and down the shore where you came from and kill Bloodsails until you get : o o o 10 Bloodsail Swashbuckler Kills 15 Snuff (can drop from any Bloodsail) 1 Dizzy's Eye (can drop from any Bloodsail) When that is done, get back on the main road and go north until you reach (39,41), slightly long ride. ** From this point on, if you find any Shadowmaw Panther (they are stealthed) make sure you kill them ** At (39,41) go east and you will find Venture Co. Goblins uphill. Kill them until you get 10 Singing Blue Crystals. Then go west to the other side of the road and start killing Cold Eye Basilisks at (37,40) until one drops a "Chilled Basilisk Haunch". Further to the west you should find Jungle Stalkers (34,37). Kill 10. Then go northeast to (36,35) and kill Shadowmaw Panthers until you got 10 kills. You can find them in the area all around that big hill next to the tribal leatherworking troll NPC. They can be a bit hard to find sometimes because they are stealthers so I suggest you hit "Tab" key while running around and open your eyes well (humans use your racial ability perception). :) Keep doing circles around that big hill and you will find 10 panthers quickly. Kill anything on the way too while searching those panthers. Go east to Ziata'Jai Ruins (42,36) and clear the camp of trolls. Be careful to avoid the patrols. When it's cleared, follow the little path northeast until you reach Balia'mah Ruins (45,33). Kill all the trolls there as well. When this camp is clear, follow the path southeast and then south until you reach the ruins of Zul'Mamwe (47,38 ) and kill all the trolls you find in the ruins (Though avoid the southernmost one up the plateau, the trolls there are higher level) If you run out of trolls go back to the first ruins of Ziata'Jai and repeat this cycle until you get 18 Skullsplitter Tusk and level 42, this is a good grinding spot. Level 42 1. Once you hit level 42 and got all your tusks, get back on the main road and go north until you get to the Venture Co. Base at Lake Nezferiti, go to the Operations Center which looks like an oil rig platform (42,18 ). Go on top of it and kill Foreman Cozzle, loot his Key. Jump down and go to the small house next to the lumber mill, open the chest and get the Fuel Regulator Blueprints. Now go west across the lake and keep going west until the Bal'lal Ruins (29,20), clear the camp and click the big tablet named "Moon Over the Vale" and loot the scroll. Then go directly east from the Bal'lal Ruins and into the sea, until (24,22). Dive underwater at this spot and you should find the tablet named "Gri"lek the Wanderer" lying against the outer wall of the underwater ruins. You don't need to kill any of the murlocs there, the tablet can be accessed safely. Loot the 2nd scroll. Then go north to the Zuuldaia Ruins and take the western entrance ( 21,10) to the Ruins of Zul'Kunda. Clear the way through the first corridor until you reach a fork, go left up the ramp. From there, face north and you should see the 3rd tablet "The Emperor's Tomb". Clear the way to it and loot the 3rd Scroll. Then go back to the fork and this time take the ramp up to the right, then take a u-turn to the right and go west until the last ruin (23,11). The last tablet named "Fall of Gurubashi" is inside there. Loot the 4th Scroll and then go back on the main path to the east and clear the way eastwards and out of Zul'Kunda ruins. 2. Keep going east to Camp Nesingwary. (35,10) Turn in: o [38] Panther Mastery. Don't get the follow up. o [41] Raptor Mastery. Don't get the follow up. o and the pages quest if you didn't do that already before. Then ride north to the Rebel Camp, turn in [38] Kurzen's Mystery, don't get the follow up. Warp to Booty Bay, turn in: o o o o o o [41] Venture Company Mining at Crank Fizzlebub in the Booty Bay Inn. [42] Up to Snuff at Deeg on the 2nd Floor of the Inn. [43] Skullsplitter Tusks at Kebok, 2nd floor of the Inn. [37] Goblin Sponsorship at Baron Revilgaz, 2nd Floor of the Inn. Get the Follow up. [43] The Bloodsail Buccaneers at Fleet Master Seahorn, 2nd Floor of the Inn. Don't get the Follow up. [42] Keep an Eye out at Dizzy One-Eye to the right of the Blacksmith house. End of Circuit 2: Note: I still had the darn XP rest bonus for the first 40000 xp, so chalk off 20000 XP of the total score. This results in an XP Rate of 35000 XP/ Hour and still one quest to turn in Stormwind. 3. Fly to Stormwind City, go to the Mage Quarters into the Blue Recluse tavern (41,89). Find Angus Stern, abandon the quest [40] A Meal Served Cold, talk to Angus Stern and get the quest [40] A Meal Served Cold again and turn it in. Then go train, repair, sell, auction and restock food/drink up to 3 stacks. 4. Circuit 3: (No map needed, it's pretty simple) Fly back to Booty Bay, go out and ride north until you reach the Ruins of Jubuwal (33,51). Clear the camp until you can pull JonJon The Crow, he should come with an add, could be a hard fight but it's doable. Loot Jon-Jon's Golden Spyglass, then clear yourself some space around the little ruins just behind where Jon-Jon was, there stands Maury 'Club-Foot" Wilkins with two Zanzil Something. Now you probably can't take all 3 at the same time, so try to kill one of the minions fast then run away, rinse and repeat until you are left with just Maury Wilkins. Kill him and loot "Maury's Clubbed Foot". Go back on the road and just a bit south until (33,53), go east through a breached wall and keep going until you hit the Ruins of Aboraz (40,57) and kill Zanzil Minions there until you find Chucky "Ten Thumbs" inside the ruins and loot "Chucky's Huge Ring" from him. Keep killing Zanzil dudes until you get 12 Zanzil's Mixtures, avoid Zanzil the Outcast himself though. If you run out of mobs to kill, go back and forth from this camp to the other. Any Zanzil Something can drop the Mixture. 5. When you are done, go back (warp if it's up) to Booty Bay and turn in: o [44] Zanzil's Secret at Crank Fizzlebub in the inn. o [44] Voodoo Dues at "Sea Wolf" MacKinley (First house next to the Inn). Don't get the follow up but take the other quest he has: [45] Stoley's Debt. End of circuit 3: Note: This one without any XP bonus, and it could have been better, I died twice stupidly at Jon-Jon the crow. :roll: Repair, sell and refill up to 3 stacks of food/drink. 6. Fly to Darkshire (Duskwood) From Darkshire go east, enter Deadwind Pass, go east through Deadwind Pass until you enter the Swamps of Sorrows. When in Swamps of Sorrows go east to Watcher Biggs (26,59), get quest [37] Encroaching Wildlife. You can find Spiders, Jaguars and Young Crocolisks in the whole area of swamps north of Watcher Biggs. Complete the quest and then go back to him, get the follow up [35] The Lost Caravan. Go north to the Harborage (26,31). Get the quest [35] Draenethyst Crystals from Magtoor. Go east along the mountain until you find "Fallow Sanctuary" at (54,28). Gather 6 Draenethyst Crystals (Big blue crystals scattered around the camp). Try to find a "Scattered Crate" in one of the camps, and loot the "Lost Supplies" from it. Right Click it to start the quest [40] The Lost Supplies. When you got 6 crystals, go further east to (63,18) where you will find a destroyed caravan. Click the Caravan Chest on it and get the Wizards' Reagents. Right next to the caravan you will find Galen Goodward inside a cage, before you get his quest, clear the 'lost ones' camps to the southwest of the cage. Then get the quest [38] Galen's Escape and escort him out. You should let Galen go in front and get the first hits, you can also eat/drink when he is attacked by only one NPC. He regens back to full health after each fight. After you have escorted Galen successfully, go south to (47,39). There you will find a small tent and Galen's Strongbox next to it. Open it, complete the quest. Stay on this island and kill everything around until you find Noboru. He will roam to this island at some point. He's level 39 and has 2 guards, but you can definitely manage it at this level. Kill him, loot his Cudgel, right click it to start the quest [39] Noboru the Cudgel Then go northwest to Magtoor at (26,31). Turn in the two quests. Then go south to Watcher Biggs. Get the follow up [42] Driftwood. Go east to the Temple of Atal'Hakkar (65,48). (Carefully avoid Stoneard). Swim through the pool until you get the quest update for [43] In Search of the Temple then keep going east until you reach the shore. Search southwards along the shore for Sundried Driftwood (they look like wooden planks, lying on the sand), kill murlocs when they are in the way until you have 8 Sundried Driftwood. Go west back to Watcher Biggs and get the follow up [42] Deliver the Shipment. Go to the Blasted Lands (follow the road east and then south). In Blasted Lands go immediately east to Nethergarde Keep. In Nethergarde keep, find Quartermaster Lungertz and turn in [40] The Lost Supplies [42] Deliver the Shipment Find the Gryphon Master and fly back to Stormwind. Repair, sell, check the auction house and go talk to Brohann Caskbelly in the Dwarven District and get the follow up [43] To the Hinterlands. XP Rate: Sadly I couldn't get a screenshot of the real XP rate because I went LD a couple of times. But I'm pretty sure it was well above 25000 XP / Hour even with all the travelling. You should be level 43 by now, if not you should grind up to level 43, on the elites outside of Uldaman for example so you get the Shattered Necklace for the pre-quest work of Uldaman. Level 43 Now you have two options: 1. Do the Uldaman instance, I suggest you follow my Uldaman Instance Guide for maximum XP rate. Try to finish the whole instance ,and especially completing the quest [47] The Platinum Discs 2. You really don't like Uldaman, then go to the next part of my guide, but that will mean more grinding for you. I strongly advice you to go to Uldaman though, you already have most of the pre-questing done, just need to gather a few missing quests quickly. And trust me, there will be big exp bonuses later on thanks to going to Uldaman. After Uldaman: 1. Go to Ironforge, sell, repair, check the auction house. From Ironforge, fly to Menethil Harbor (Wetlands). Take the boat to Auberdine, this boat is at the northern peer. Once in Auberdine, get the flight path from the Hippogryph Master, then take the boat back to Menethil Harbor. Then take the boat to Theramore, it's the boat that stops at the southern peer. In Theramore on the docks turn in the quest [43] Akiris by the Bundle at Privateer Groy. Talk to the Gryphon Master. If you have First Aid, you can do the quest to become master in First Aid there. You need to have a skill 225 and be level 40. Go talk to Doctor Gustaf VanHowzen in the Foothold Citadel and do the little quest where you have to bandage patients and get 3900 easy XP. 2. Then fly to Gadgetzan In Gadgetzan: Turn in [45] Tran'Rek, don't get the follow up. Get quests: o [43] Wastewander Justice o [44] Water Pouch Bounty o [47] Handle with Care from Curgle Cranklehop General info about Tanaris, Feralas and Hinterlands: While killing stuff in Tanaris if you find an item named [OOX-17/TN Distress Beacon]. Right click it and keep the quest. You'll find beacons in Feralas and Hinterlands as well, proceed equally with those. Each of those beacons start a quest where you will have to find a Homing Robot and escort it. The beacons won't always drop for you, they are kinda rare. The escort quests are hard to do solo especially for certain classes. But if you are lucky to find all 3 beacons you should really put the effort and finish all 3 rescue quests, it will be described when to do them in the guide later on. Anyway, if you don't get a distress beacon, or if you don't manage to complete the rescue quests, it's not a big deal, this is optional, it's a nifty exp bonus but it's not that important Sell, Repair, re-supply food/drink (3 stacks). Get out of Gadgetzan, ride east until Noonshade Ruins (61,24), kill all the Bandits you can find there (If it's crowded just skip this part and keep riding east).. Then go further east to Steamwheedle Port even if you still haven't completed Wastewander Justice yet. In Steamwheedle port get: o o [45] Pirate Hats Ahoy! [45] WANTED: Andre Firebeard and [46] WANTED: Caliph Scorpidsting from the wanted poster. o o [44] Screecher Spirits [45] Southsea Shakedown Turn in [45] Stoley's Debt and get the follow up [46] Stoley's Shipment. 3. Ride back towards Gadgetzan, make a stop at Noonshade Ruins and kill bandits / thieves there until you finish Wastewander Justice and Water Pouch Bounty. If the place is crowded, there are more wastewander camps southeast of here (63,30). (Note: If you are not level 43 yet, that's where you should grind). Go back to Gadgetzan and turn in [44] Water Pouch Bounty and [43] Wastewander Justice, get the follow up [44] More Wastewander Justice. 4. Ride north to Thousand Needles and to the Shimmering Flats at the Mirage Raceway (80,75). Turn in [38] News for Fizzle at Fizzle Brassbolts. Get quest [50] Gahz'Rilla (Dungeon) from Wizzle Brassbolts. Turn in [36] Part for Kravel at Kravel Koalbeard, don't get the follow up. Turn in [37] Goblin Sponsorship at Pozzik don't get the follow up but on the other hand get the quest [41] Keeping Pace from Pozzik. Then go talk to Zamek who is just south of Pozzik, he should have a blue question mark over the head. Start his quest, follow him, he will set up an explosive and distract Rizzle Brassbolt out of his house. While Rizzle is away go quickly loot the Unguarded Plans. Complete the quest, get the follow up [41] Rizzle's Schematics and turn it in at Pozzik. 5. Ride back to Gadgetzan and fly to Thalanaar (Feralas). In Feralas, ride west, follow the road, but carefully avoid Camp Mojache (by the north) or the guards will make a quick deal of you. Find the Grimtotem Camp at (65,47), then locate Kindal Moonweaver at (65,45), she is on the mountain overlooking the Grimtotem camp. Once you know where Kindal is, don't take the quest yet, go back to the Grimtotem Camp and clear the area around the bamboo cage with the Sprite Darters in it, and don't be shy, clear a wide radius around it. When you feel that you've cleared enough, go quickly to Kindal and start the quest, jump down and run straight to the bamboo cage, open the cage and escort the sprites out, at least 6 of them must survive. Once you get the "6 Sprites escaped (Complete)" message, help Kindal finish off whatever she is attacking. When Kindal is not being attacked by anything, she will vanish, go find her at her initial spot, turn in the quest. If you and/or Kindal die after getting the "quest complete" message, just run back fast to where you initially found Kindal and turn in the quest before the end of the 5 min countdown. 6. Now Jer'Kai Moonweaver (that elf right next to Kindal) will have a quest for you,[47] Doling Justice. Take the quest, go back down to the Grimtotem Camp and kill as much as the quest requires you to. When done, go back to her and get the follow up [47] Doling Justice. 7. Get back on the road, keep going west following the road and go to the shore at (44,42). Take the boat to Feathermoon Stronghold, or just swim there if the boat isn't in sight, it's faster. In Feathermoon Stronghold get: o [46] The Mark of Quality o [43] The Ruins of Solarsal o [43] The Missing Courier o [44] The High Wilderness o [47] In Search of Knowledge Then go talk to Ginro Hearthkindle, he is on the 2nd floor of a house at (31,45) get the follow up [43] The Missing Courier from him. Talk to the Hippogryph master, make Feathermoon Stronghold your home location. Sell and Repair, re-supply food and drink (3 stacks) 8. Go southwest to the Ruins of Solarsal, at (26,52) you'll find a Gazebo (a pavilion structure opened on all sides) named "Solar Gazebo" , it's easy to discern it as it is the only "dark" building. Click it and get the follow up quest [43] Return to Feathermoon Stronghold. Go back to Feathermoon Stronghold and get the follow up from Shandris Feathermoon [43] Against the Hatecrest. Talk to Latronicus right next to her, get the follow up and go back to the Solarsal ruins, kill Nagas until you have 10 Hatecrest Naga Scales. Go back to Latronicus, turn in the quest and get the follow up [45] Against Lord Shalzaru. Sell, repair and re-supply food/drink (3stacks). Go south past the Ruins of Solarsol and across the water to the Isle of Dread. On the Isle of Dread, clear a path to the Cave at (26,67). Inside the cave, go straight ahead and under a small white arch. Lord Shalzaru is up there on the other side of the pond. He is level 47 and he's not solo, which means probably a bit hard for you to kill if you are not level 44 yet, which will probably be the case for those who skipped Uldaman. Luckily, this cavern is a very nice grind spot, kill Nagas there until you reach level 44. Level 44 1. Kill Lord Shazaru, there are 2 other nagas close to him but you can pull them one by one or just 2 at a time. Use your long cooldown abilities and potions if needed. Loot the Mysterious Relic from him. Clear the way out and go back to Feathermoon Stronghold. Turn in the quest at Latronicus and get the follow up [45] Delivering the Relic. Go talk to Vestia Moonspear in the same building and turn in the quest. End of circuit 1: Note: Unfortunately I had XP bonus for the most part of this session, but if you do the math, it's still at least 32000 XP/ Hour. Then take the boat, back to Feralas, from there go south following the shore while avoiding the Water Elementals / Giants. Kill any Rogue Vale Screechers you find on the way and use Yeh'Kinya's Bramble on their corpses, then talk to their spirit to free them. Finish [44] Screecher Spirits while going southwards. Cross a small river, then keep going south until you find a Boat Wreckage at (45,64), it's underwater but very close to the shore, you can actually see the tip of it, it's a very small wreckage, don't expect some big boat. There will probably be an elemental or two around it that will aggro if you get close, you can try killing them (but some of them are 49) or you can run in, click the quest, get the follow up and run away. (What I did :p) 2. Once you have the follow up [44] Boat Wreckage, go back to Feathermoon Fortress (use Hearthstone if it's up). In Feathermoon Fortress talk to Ginro Hearthkindle and get the follow up [44] The Knife Revealed, go talk to Quintis at the top of the tower north of this building. Get the follow up [44] Psychometric Reading and go back to Ginro, get the follow up [44] The Woodpaw Gnolls. Sell, Repair, buy up to 4 stacks of food/drink. Circuit 2: 3. Go east across the sea, back to Feralas, follow the road east until you reach Ruins of Isildien (61,53). Kill ogres there until you have killed 8 Brutes and 8 Warlocks, then for the Ogre Shamans you will have to go much further south to the big temple at (59,73). Keep doing circles around the temple until you got 8 Shamans dead (there's also shamans inside the building, sometimes you gotta kill the placeholders for them to respawn). When you are done with Shamans, go further to the south and as far up the hills as you can, you will find Hippogryph Eggs on the floor at (56,76). Get a Hippogryph Egg go northwest to the Yeti Cave (55,56). Kill Yetis, ignore the Homing Robot OOX-22/FE for now. Keep killing yetis until you get 10 Thick Yeti Hides. When you got 10 Yeti Hides, go to the Homing Robot. (53,55) Now, at this point you should normally have gotten a Distress Beacon with all the stuff you've killed in Feralas already. If you don't, it's not a big deal, just go to the next step. For those you did get a Distress Beacon, right click it to get the quest [45] Find OOX-22/FE! if you haven't already. Turn in the quest. Don't take the escort quest if you are solo, it's too hard for almost every class. If you are a duo or more, read the following warnings before taking the escort quest: o 1st Warning: The Chicken robot is stupid and doesn't assist you all the time if you get attacked. Let him in the front so he gets the first hit. He has a decent amount of HPs and heals back to full after each fight is over. You can even eat/drink a bit after a fight and let the chicken walk in the front (not too far away though). Don't even think about looting, you don't have time. Don't let the chicken tank more than one at a time, and don't let him tank too long either. o 2nd Warning: When out of the Yeti cave, the chicken will take a left turn and go towards the road, at some point 3 yetis will ambush him. Don't panic, you can let one of the yetis be tanked by the chicken at the beginning and deal with the other 2. Just check the chicken's health regularly. There will be a 2nd and a 3rd ambush, be prepared for them. Especially the last one is composed of 4 Gnolls. 4. Go back to Feralas, follow the main road east until (71,48) you should be directly north of the small lake. Go to the southeastern tip of that lake and a bit more to the south try to locate a small gnoll camp next to a huge tree. (73,56). Clear the camp and look for "Large Leather Backpacks" hanging at the trunk of that huge tree. Click it and get the follow up quest [46] The Writhing Deep. Also check your inventory for a bag named "Undelivered Parcel", click it and start the quest [44] Thalanaar Delivery. 5. Go further south to the Writhing Deep and find the hole at (74,63), go down the spiralling ramp until you reach the bottom. There enter the tunnel towards the west, inside the tunnel at the first fork go to the right. At the end of this corridor you'll find a circular room with the Zukk'Ash Pod inside. Clear the insects in the room. (if you are lucky, "Qirot", a rare spawn insect will be there. Kill it for and extra green item). When the room is clear, click the Zukk'Ash Pod, complete the quest, and after Raschal the Courier is done with his speech, warp back to Feathermoon Stronghold. Turn in the quests and get the follow up: [46] A Hero's Welcome [48] Improved Quality Go to Shandris Feathermoon, turn in [46] A Hero's Welcome and get the follow up [46] Rise of the Slithid. 6. Fly to Auberdine (Darkshore), takes about 7 minutes. In Auberdine go on the peer and take the boat to the right, it will take you to Rut'theran Village outside of Darnassus. Turn in the quest [47] Handle with Care at Erelas Ambersky. Get the quest [47] Favored of Elune?. Go talk to Daryn Lightwind on the upper floor, turn in [47] In Search of Knowledge. Go luck for a green book on the floor, next to the little bookshelf to the north (55,91). Get the quest and talk again to Daryn and get the follow up [48] The Borrower. 7. Go inside Darnassus (for those who never went there, you have to step in the pink haze at (56,90)) Inside Darnassus, go to the Temple of the Moon. Turn in the 2 quests there. While you are in Darnassus, go to your class trainer (if you are Warlock or Paladin, you will have to go to Auberdine and take the boat to Menethil Harbor then fly to Ironforge. Mages can just go learn the Portal to Darnassus and warp to a big city to train), visit the Auction House, sell and repair. Then go back to Feathermoon Stronghold (Use Hearthstone if it is up -- If it's not up, there is a Hippogryph Master in Rut'theran Village, fly to Auberdine, then fly to Feathermoon.) Now if you went to Uldaman, you should be level 45. For those who aren't level 45 yet, go grind Nagas on the Isle of Dread (South of Feathermoon) or on yetis at the Yeti Cave (53,56) until you hit level 45. Level 45 1. From Feathermoon, fly to Thalanaar. Turn in the quest [44] Thalanaar Delivery at Falfindel Waywarder. Then Fly to Gadgetzan. In Gadgetzan, turn in the quest [48] The Borrower at Curgle Cranklehop, get the follow up [48] The Super Snapper FX (Elite). Right next to Curgle, click on the Egg-O-Matic. Complete the quest and you will get an Egg Crate, open it then talk to Curgle again and complete the quest corresponding to the egg you got. Sell, Repair, get up to 3 Stacks of Food/Drink. 2. In Tanaris ride to the southeast until you reach Waterspring Field (63,37). You will find numerous Wastewander camps there. Kill Wastewander Rogues (stealthers), Assassins and Shadow Mages. You can also find Caliph Scorpidsting, he wanders between the tower structures, so you should go kill from a tower structure to another until you find him. He has 2 stealthed bodyguards, it will be a hard fight, burn him down quick and run away is my advice, use long cooldown abilities and potions if needed. Then go back and loot his head. If you don't find Caliph it's not a problem though, it's just some bonus XP quest, nothing important. 3. Once you got [44] More Wastewander Justice completed, go east towards Lost Rigger Cove. You'll find a cave entrance at (68,41). Go through this tunnel. Now you have a lot of work to do, check the kill list of [45] Southsea Shakedown and start killing Pirates! Clear your way south toward the main camp with the 3 houses , 2 ships ashore and the boat under construction. Andre Firebeard spawns at the campfire right in the center of the camp. He has 3 Dock Workers close to him but you can pull those 3 without him if you pull the back one, then you have Andre solo. Or you can burn him down fast and run away (or take them all :p^^). Anyway, this place is usually crowded because it is a good grinding spot, so you shouldn't have trouble getting help to kill Andre Firebeard if needed. Then go inside the first house to the right when entering the camp. You might get pulls of 3 at a time inside the house, you will maybe have to use the "Kill one and run away" tactic to get to the top floor of the house if you can't take 3 at a time.. On the top floor are crates, click them to get Stoley's Shipment. Then keep on killing pirates until you complete Southsea Shakedown and Pirate Hats Ahoy! Bonus: There is a rare spawn named Kregg Keelhaul on the boats ashore. Check for it. If you find a Captain's Key off one of the pirates, the chest is at the bottom level of the ship which is the most to the east. Another thing, while killing pirates by the dozen you might find a pirate footlocker on one of them (1% chance to drop approximately). In the footlocker you might find a note named "Ship Schedule", right click it to start the quest [45] Ship Schedules, which you turn in in Steamwheedle Port for an extra 4850 XP. However, you might be unlucky and never get a footlocker, so don't worry if you miss it, it's optional. 4. When done, get out of Rigger Cove and go north to Steamwheedle Port. Turn in: o [45] Andre Firebeard o [45] Southsea Shakedown o [45] Stoley's Shipment and get the follow up [45] Deliver to MacKinley o [45] Pirate Hats Ahoy! o [44] Screecher Spirits and get the follow up [47] The Prophecy of Mosh'Aru (Dungeon) Ride west to Gadgetzan and turn in: o o [44] More Wastewander Justice [46] WANTED: Caliph Scorpidsting Also turn in any stacks of 5 Wastewander Water Pouch at Spigot Operator Luglunket (he has a blue question mark overhead) If you are not level 46 at this point, go grind on pirates until you hit 46. XP rate: Note: The XP counter started when I arrived in Gadgetzan and turned in "the borrower" quest. No XP bonus, I think the numbers speak for themselves. Level 46 1. Go to Ironforge (Fly to Theramore, take the boat to Menethil Harbor and then fly to Ironforge) In Ironforge: Visit your class trainer, sell, repair, check auction house. Optional: If you did Uldaman and [47] The Platinum Discs quest, then go to the Hall of Explorers, talk to High Explorer Magellas, get the quest [50] Portents of Uldum, then talk to Historian Karnik further inside the Hall of Explorers and get the follow up [50] Seeing what Happens. Fly to Southshore, then go northeast to the Hinterlands (84,32). In Hinterlands go northeast to Aerie Peak (14,47). Get the quests: [45] Troll Necklace Bounty [48] Skulk Rock Clean-up Turn in [43] To the Hinterlands at Falstad Wildhammer and get the follow up: [43] Gryphon Master Talonaxe On your way up to the top get the flight path for Aerie Peak. Talk to Gryphon Master Talonaxe and get the follow up: [43] Rhapsody Shindigger. Also get [45] Witherbark Cages from him. Then make Aerie Peak your home location. (the innkeeper can be hard to find, he wanders about on the top floor inside the inn) ** Reminder: If you find a distress beacon on mobs in Hinterlands, right click it and get the quest** Circuit: 2. Head out directly east of Aerie Peak, follow a small path while staying close to the mountain to your left. You will find Shindigger's camp (26,48). Talk to Rhapsody and get the follow up [43] Rhapsody's Kalimdor Kocktail **While in the Hinterlands look for Wilkdkin Feathers, they are big white/brown feathers you can find on the ground throughout Hinterlands. They don't drop off the Owlbeasts. I found most of them in between Aerie Peak and Quel'Danil Lodge. Start gathering them from now on while doing the quest circuit** 3. Go south to the troll ruins of Zun'watha (23,58), clear the camp and check the first and second Witherbark cages. Then go east to the troll ruins of Hiri'watha (32,57). Clear some space inside and check the "Third Witherbark Cage" Kill trolls until you get 5 Troll Tribal Necklaces. 4. Go northeast to Agol'Watha (46,40) and kill 10 Sludge Ooze. Go east to Skulk Rock (56,44) and kill 10 Jade Ooze. Beware of the wolf stalkers there though, they are stealthed, so be prepared for unexpected adds. 5. Optional: If you got the Distress Beacon OOX-22/HL, go to the lake northwest of Skulk Rock and find the Homing robot there (49,37). Turn in the quest. Before you accept the rescue quest, here is what you must know: o o o This quest, unlike the Feralas one, is more likely to be done solo. It's still not a walk in the part of course. So if you got a partner to duo it, all the better for you. Let the chicken run in front of you, let it get the first hit. If it's not getting hit, it won't fight back. Sometimes mobs are actually chasing the chicken and failing to get a hit on it, so they give up. You'll have to face 2 ambushes of 3 mobs each, make sure you are full health/mana and with long cooldown abilities up when you start the escort. When the 3 ambushers attack, stand back until the chicken gets hit. Then let the chicken tank one of the 3 adds, deal with the 2 others as quick as you can, then help the chicken finish off the 3rd add. If you don't have the beacon, you can come back later when you get one. But of course now is the most efficient time to do it, cause it's on your quest path :) 6. Go southeast, to the Overlook Cliffs (70,63) and follow the path down to the shore. Search your bags for the Super Snapper FX and make a hotkey out of it. Then ride along the shore and search for a named turtle named Gammerita. She is easy to discern from the rest because she's the only aggressive turtle (red name - turn NPC names on in your interface options, advanced options tab). She roams a lot, so you'll find her anywhere between the waterfall (82,47) and Revantusk Village (77,77). You don't need to kill her, just get close enough and use the Super Snapper FX on her, she will not like it and will attack you, just run away. You should now normally have a Snapshot of Gammerita in your inventory. 7. Hearthstone back to Aerie Peak. Turn in the quests: [45] Troll Necklace Bounty [48] Skulk Rock Clean-up Optional: You can turn in more Troll Necklaces at the same NPC if you have extra stacks of 5. You gain 390 XP and extra faction with these dwarves each time. Go to the top floor of Aerie Peak to Gryphon Master Talonaxe and get the follow up: [48] The Altar of Zul End of circuit: Sell, repair, buy up to 3 stacks food/drink. 8. Go to the Altar of Zul (49,64) and kill trolls / wolves there. Now the best would be that you shout in the "Looking for group" channel the following: "Looking for more to do [48] The Altar of Zul and get the Sacred Mallet" During peak times there's almost always people interested in doing that. Anyway, if you don't find people willing to do this immediately, just keep on killing trolls / wolves in this area (or the lower level ones to the west) until you get a group going. Also use the oportunity to finish the Wildkin Feather gathering. (You need 15 feathers) You and two level 50s should be just enough to kill the 2 NPCs on top of the Altar of Zul. More will make it easier of course. I even managed to do it with just me (lvl 47 rogue) and a level 48 priest. But it was really close. On top of the temple of Zul you'll find 2 level 50 elites. Qiaga and Morta'gya. With me playing my mage I managed to kill them with a level 51 Hunter and a 50 Priest, I sheeped Morta and we killed Qiaga first. It went quite smooth. Loot the "Sacred Mallet" from Qiaga. Then walk on top of the altar in the middle of it and you'll get a quest update for [48] The Altar of Zul. **Note: If you don't find a group to kill the 2 elites, nevermind. You can still run up to the top of the altar, complete [48] The Altar of Zul and run away. The Mallet is really optional** Say goodbye to your group and grind on trolls (you choose which camp) until you are one bubble away from level 47. Optional: While grinding you can also go to Shadra'Alor and get the quest [53] Jammalan the Prophet from the Atalai' Exile (32,74). That's if you plan to do the Sunken Temple instance later on (I recommend it) 9. Then go back to the top of Aerie Peak and speak with Gryphon Master Talonaxe. Turn in the quest and get the follow up: [47] Thadius Grimshade Don't forget to turn in the Troll Necklaces for extra exp at Fraggar Thundermantle (in the inn). Important: Keep Aerie Peak as your home location until further notice. 10. Fly to Ironforge. Sell, repair, check AH. you really have to buy the 2 Elixirs of Fortitude if you didn't already (See shopping list). Fly to Menethil Harbor, take the boat to Auberdine, fly to Rut'Theran village. In Rut'theran Village turn in the quest [47] Favored of Elune? at Erelas Ambersky (55,92). In the same house on the 1st floor turn in [48] The Super Snapper FX (Elite). Get the follow up [48] Return to Troyas. You should also be level 47 now. Congratulations. Level 47 1. Fly back to Auberdine then fly to Feathermoon Stronghold. Buy up to 4 stacks of food/drink then talk to Troyas Moonbreeze and get the follow up [50] The Stave of Equinex. Get [51] The Sunken Temple from Angelas Moonbreeze, standing next to Troyas. Circuit: Cross the sea east to the peer in Feralas and get the two quests from the goblin named Zorbin Fandazzle (44,43) [48] Zapped Giants [48] Fuel for the Zapping Look inside your bags for Zorbin's Ultra-Shrinker and put it on a hotkey. 2. Then go south along the shore and start killing water elementals. Look for giants as well, they are elite but if you use the Zorbin's Zapper on them they become totally managable. Keep killing elementals and giants until you got 15 Miniaturization Residue and 10 Water Elemental Core. Once finished, go turn in your quest at Zorbin Fandazzle. Optional: You can take the 2 follow ups (which appear lvl 55 but are still about the same mobs) if you feel like it and redo the quests several times, it's not so bad for grinding as you get an extra 550XP, 21 Silver and faction increase with all Steamwheedle Cartel factions per quest turn in, but on the other hand those elementals are kinda hard to kill with certain classes, so I'll let you be the judge here. (I redid both quests only once, then it was getting too boring :p) Note: For engineers it's worth it, because after completing the quests, Zorbin opens his store and you can buy Schematic: Snake Burst Firework. 3. Get back on the main road and ride north/northeast towards the yeti cave (51,32). On the way there also kill every Ironfur Bear and Groddoc Thunderer you find. You need 3 livers of each for [43] Rhapsody's Kalimdor Kocktail. Kill Rage Scar Yetis until you get 10 Rage Scar Yeti Hide and a Pristine Yeti Hide (rare drop). When you get the Pristine hide, right click it and get the quest. Note: Miners / Skinners you might want to grind here a little, this is a good spot. 4. Get out of the yeti cave and go north until you can get back on the main road, then northeast until you find a stone giant named Rockbiter. Get the quest [49] The Giant Guardian from him. Then go directly north to the Ruins of Ravenwind. There are level 48-50 Harpies everywhere in those ruins, the lvl 50s will be a bit harder but manageable. Plus, they drop Vibrant Plumes for Darkmoon Faire tickets. Be careful with runners, overall, be very careful in that area, take your time to pull one by one, don't be reckless or you will die (I did! :P ) 5. First go west to (38,15), next to a thick square tower you'll find a dark gazebo, inside of it is the first flame, right click it. Loot the Byltan Essence. Go northeast to (40,12) to some big ruined arch, the 2nd flame is on the top of it in the middle. To get there you have to get behind the building and jump from stones to stones until you can reach the flame of Samha. Right click it and loot the Samha Essence. Then go back and jump down the building, directly northeast of it and on slightly higher ground among ruins you will find the flame of Imbel. (39,9) Loot the Imbel Essence. Then go southwest (ignore Shay Leafrunner for now if you see her) until (37,11). The Flame of Lahassa is under a dark brown gazebo. Loot the Lahassa Essence. 6. Now that you have all 4 essences, go southeast to the Equinex Monolith (38,13). Clear some space around it, then go to it, search your bags for Troyas's Stave. Right click it to charge the stave, then right click the monolith, complete the quest, get the follow up [50] The Morrow Stone. 7. Get out of the Monolith area and then clear yourself a path northwest to Shay Leafrunner. Before you take the quest, here is the trick : After taking the quest you must loot the bell from the chest next to Shay. Make a hotkey of that bell. Now here is the problem with Shay, she wanders off every now and then, she always says something like "oh what a beautiful flower" and goes away. When she does that you are supposed to ring the bell and she will run back to you. The problem is that the bell has a rather long cooldown so she ends up wandering off too often. The trick is that as soon as you ring the bell, she will run to you, so you should start running southeast / south towards Rockbiter (42,21) and she will keep running after you until she catches up. When she catches up she will say something like 'I wandered off again, sorry". But the cooldown on the bell will be reset already. In short: When she wanders off, ring the bell and run away, don't let her catch up to you. Even if you get aggroed by mobs keep running. Only stop if Shay herself gets attacked, then you will have to defend her. You can run and look behind you by holding your mouse's left click and moving the mouse, to make sure she's still running after you. Once at the giant, turn in the quest. Then go southeast and back on the road, follow the road south and then east until (54,41). 8. Now you can go south back into the Yeti Cave and try to escort the Homing Robot again if you didn't before. It's still really hard solo, but at level 47 I managed to do it (was extremely close with the mage though). I recommend finding someone willing to duo it with you. Anyway, one advice, just ALWAYS let the chicken get hit first before you do anything. If you don't manage to solo this quest or can't find a person to duo it just abandon it. It's really optional, but do try hard though. :P 9. Then get back on the road, keep going east and past the bridge until (65,49). When there, go down and northeast towards the grimtotem camp. Go talk to Kindal Moonweaver (those two elven chicks we already helped back then with the sprite darters). Get the quest [47] An Orphan Looking for a Home. Then ride back to Feathermoon Stronghold. Turn in : [48] Improved Quality and [48] Pristine Yeti Hide at Pratt McGrubben [50] The Morrow Stone at Troyas Moonbreeze End of circuit: I went linkdead right in the middle of the Ruins of Ravenwind, so no XP rate screenshot. But from what I checked before going linkdead and after. This session lasted about 2H45min. The exp rate was around 30000 XP/ Hour for a total of ~80000 XP gained. Sell/repair/refill up to 3 stacks food/drink. 10. Fly to Thalanaar and then to Gadgetzan. In Gadgetzan get: o o o o [46] Gadgetzan Water Survey from Senior Surveyor Fizzledowser (he's on a mound of earth behind the houses on the west side of Gadgetzan) [49] The Thirsty Goblin from Maren Noggenfogger [49] The Dunemaul Compound from Andi Lynn (behind the Inn) [50] Thistleshrub Valley from Tran'Rek Circuit: 11. Get out of Gadgetzan and go south until you find the skeletal remains of some huge animal (50,35). Kill all the Fire Rocs you find there. You got another of those huge skeletal remains to the southwest. Cycle between those 2 spots until you get the 3 Roc Gizzards you need for [43] Rhapsody's Kalimdor Kocktail. 12. Go northwest to the pool of water by the Sandsorrow watch (38,29). Stand by the western tip of the pool and get full health/mana. Search your bag for a black vial named "Untapped Dowsing Widget" and right click it. Two level 48 insects will pop and attack you, kill them or run away from them. It doesn't matter. 13. Go east back to Gadgetzan. Talk to Senior Survery Fizzledowser and get the follow up [47] Noxious Lair Investigation. Go south to the area named "Broken Pillar" (52,45) and talk to Marvon Rivetseeker. Turn in [51] The Sunken Temple and get the follow up [51] The Stone Circle. Also get [48] Gahz'ridian. 14. Go west / southwest to the Dunemaul Compound and clear a path to the cave there (40,56). In that cave you'll find Gor'marok the Ravager, kill him. (lvl 49 soloable at lvl 47 without a problem) Go southeast to the Eastmoon Ruins (48,64) (yes, even if you didn't finish [49] The Dunemaul Compound yet.) Start killing ogres there and look on the floor for Gahz'Ridian pieces. They look like white upside down plates. Kill ogres in that camp until you got 30 Gahz'Ridian Ornament and hit level 48. If it's too crowded, there is another camp similar to this one further to the southwest named "Southmoon Ruin" (41,72). When you hit 48 and got 30 Gahz'Ridian ornament you should also be done with [49] The Dunemaul Compound. If not, kill some more ogres :p Level 48 Optional: If you went to Uldaman and did the quest [47] The Platinum Discs, go southwest to Uldum (38,79). The Dune Smashers have a small aggro range, you can hug the left wall and reach the Stone Watcher of Norgannon, just be careful of the one roamer. The Stone Watcher of Norgannon is at (37,81). Click the Uldum Pedestal under him and get the follow up, then talk to the Stone Watcher of Norgannon who just appeared on the pedestal. Go through his dialogue and you will complete the follow up. Then click the Uldum pedestal again, complete the quest and get the follow up [50] Return to Ironforge. Now wasn't that the easiest 9400xp ever? 1. Go west (northwest if you went to Uldum) to Thistleshrub Valley (28,67). Kill Gnarled Thistleshrubs and Thistleshrub Rootshapers until you get 8 kills of each. Also kill Thistleshrub Dew Collectors until a Laden Dew Gland drops (rare drop). 2. Go north to the Noxious Lair (31,51). Kill Centipaars there, Stingers, Wasps, Tunnelers.. until you get 5 Centipaar Insect Parts. Then go back to Gadgetzan. 3. In Gadgetzan turn in: o o o o o [49] The Thirsty Goblin at Marin Noggenfogger. Get the follow up [49] In Good Taste. [49] The Dunemaul Compound at Andi Lynn [50] Thistleshrub Valley at Trank'Rek [49] In Good Taste at Sprinkle, get the follow up [49] Sprinkle's Secret Ingredient. [47] Noxious Lair Investigation at Alchemist Pestlezugg Get the quest: [48] The Scrimshank Redemption from Senior Surveyor Fizzledowser. End of circuit: Sell/repair/restock food-drink (3 stacks). 4. Go south to the Broken Pillar and talk to Marvon Rivetseeker, turn in [48] Gahz'ridian. Go further south to the Gaping Chasm (56,61), clear yourself a path through the insects southwards until you find the entrance spiralling down at (55,70). Take the 2nd tunnel you see when going down the spiral, the one going north (55,69). Inside the tunnel at the first fork go right. Then go through the circular room. After the circular room at the first fork go right. You will enter a big square room. The Scrimshank's Surveying Gear (55,71) is at the western corner of the square room. Loot it and then go back the way you came from, and then go north until you are out of the Gaping Chasm. 5. If you don't have the Distress Beacon, go back to Gadgetzan. If you do have the Distress Beacon for Tanaris: Go east and inside the mountain at (60,64). You will find the Homing Robot OOX-17/TN there. Turn in the quest. Get full health/mana, refresh buffs. Check if your long cooldown abilities are up. For some classes this will be hard to solo, so if you don't manage it better find someone to duo it with. If you don't manage that, just abandon the escort quest, it's optional anyway. Things to know about this escort quest: 1. Let the chicken in front, let him get hit first. Sometimes mobs will aggro him but not manage to hit him while he walks and they will just give up. 2. The first part of the escort is the hardest as you will run into lvl 46-47 mobs. And at some point you will get an ambush of 3 level 46 scorpions. Use your long cooldown abilities there. After this, it gets easier. 3. Later on you will get a 2nd ambush, 3 humanoids lvl 42 (green). One will be a shadow mage though, kill it first. 6. Ride back to Gadgetzan, talk to Senior Surveyor Fizzledowser and get the follow up [48] Insect Part Analysis. Go talk to Alchemist Pestlezugg, get the follow up and get back to Surveyor Fizzledowser. Turn in the quest and get the follow up [49] Rise of the Slithid . Get your 2 Elixirs of Fortitude from the bank in Gadgetzan. Then ride north to the thousand needles. 7. Go to the Mirage Raceway and talk to Quentin (78,74). Turn in the quest [47] An Orphan Looking for a Home. Get the follow up, turn it in instantly (as you already have the 2 Elixirs of Fortitude). Get the quest [47] The Newest Member of the Family and hearthstone to Aerie Peak. Go talk to Agnar Beastamer, he is inside the inn on the lower level. Turn in [47] The Newest Member of the Family. Get the follow up [47] Food for Baby. End of circuit. 8. Now don't worry we are gonna hit Ironforge soon to visit the class trainer, but first, repair/sell, refill food/drink (3 Stacks). Get out of Aerie Peak by the small path to the east and go to Rhapsody Shindigger. (26,48) Turn in [43] Rhapsody's Kalimdor Kocktail. Watch him get drunk and then get the quest [43] Rhapsody's Tale. Ride east towards the area in between Shaol'Watha and Jintha'Alor (65,50). At this spot and widely around it you should find Silvermane Stalkers. They are level 47-48 wolves and they are stealthed. Run circles in the area I described among the trees, hit tab while looking around. You should find them quickly, they drop the stuff you need 40% of the time. (Humans: use perception / Warlocks: Buff yourself with detect invisibility) Kill everything on your way while you are at it, like those goofy looking Owlbeasts. 9. Once you got 5 Silvermane Stalker Flanks, ride west to Valorwind Lake at (40,60). Dive in and look for some white/red mushroom named Violet Tragan. Loot one. (Don't right click it when its in your inventory!) Then go back to Aerie Peak, into the inn, back to Agnar Beastamer. Turn in the quest [47] Food for Baby and get the follow up [48] Becoming a Parent. Turn it in, congratulations on your new pet. It's useless but it's cute :P (and wasn't a waste of time XP wise) 10. Fly to Ironforge, visit your class trainer, sell, repair, auction. If you went to Uldaman before and if you did the platinum discs quest: Go to the Halls of Explorer, turn in [50] Return to Ironforge at Historian Karnik and get the follow up [50] A Future Task. Also get [52] Passing the Burden from him. Turn in [50] A Future Task at High Explorer Magellas. (yet another 4700 XP and 2 Gold 20 Silver.) Note: This is why I really advise doing certain instances. They are not a waste of time at all if you do them the right way. Here we got 3 times 4700XP only because we did a quest in Uldaman back then. 11. Fly to Stormwind, go to the Dwarven District to Brohann Caskbelly (64,20) and get the follow up [50] Into The Temple of Atal'Hakkar (Dungeon). Fly to Nethergarde Keep (Blasted Lands) talk to Thadius Grimshade and get the follow up [47] Nekrum's Medallion (Dungeon). Fly to Darkshire and then to Booty Bay. In Booty Bay turn in the [45] Deliver to MacKinley at "Sea Wolf" MacKinley (close to the inn) and all the Rescue OOX-22 quests you completed at Oglethorpe Obnoticus (2nd house to the right of the forge), if you completed any, that is. If you completed all 3 rescues you get and extra quest [50] An OOX of your own. You'll get another of those useless pets and 7100 XP as well! Which is why going through the pain of doing those 3 escort quests is in the end worth it. (Sadly the Tanaris beacon never dropped for the character I used to record the XP Rates, so I didn't get this bonus) 12. Go back to Ironforge. Now here is what I advise: Get a group together and go to Zul'Farrak. Follow this Zul'Farrak Instance Guide. It would be a waste not to go, you already have all the pre-quest work done, you just have to gather a few more quests in Tanaris (and one in Dustwallow Marsh). Even if you don't like instances, I really suggest you do an effort on this one, it will be a great XP boost and you also get follow up quests which will be another source of extra XP later. You don't even have to do everything in Zul'Farrak. You can skip Antu'Sul and Witch Doctor Zum'Rah, which are arguably the hardest battles in there. You can also skip Gahz Ridian actually, but if you get someone in your group with the Mallet, you might as well go for it. Just make sure you do at least: o o o Kill Theka the Martyr (Get 1st Tablet) The Temple script (Loot Nekrum's Medaillon) Kill Hydromanther Velratha (Loot 2nd Tablet) It took me just 2 Hours with a crapy pick-up group for a huge XP boost. If you really don't want to go to Zul'Farrak: You can abandon the quests related to it and go grind up to level 49. (Because those who go to Zul'Farrak will ding 49 from turning in the quests even if they don't do all the quests, Gazh'Rilla and Troll Temper namely) You can grind either in Feralas on Yetis or on Harpies (good for Darkmoon Faire Tickets). You can also grind on ogres in Tanaris if you prefer. 13. For those who go to Zul'Farrak, the optimal setup would be that one person of your group has the Mallet to summon Gahz'Rilla. If you can't manage that it's np, this is optional and you can always come back later when you have your own mallet, if you wish to. In both cases, when you stop by Tanaris, talk to Sprinkle and get the follow up [49] Delivery for Marin. Go talk to Marin Noggenfogger and get the follow up [49] Noggenfogger Elixir and turn it in. The elixirs are more fun than useful but sometimes they give nifty effects like levitation or water breathing, which can be helpful situationaly. Plus now you can buy Elixirs from Marin at will :) You can also bind in Gadgetzan or anywhere you please if it's more convenient to you, for now. Level 49 1. So you just turned in all the quests you finished in Zul'Farrak (besides the one in Blasted Lands, cause we are going there now) or grinded your way up to level 49. Those who did Zul'Farrak should have already 4 bubbles in level 49 or close to that. Go to Ironforge and bind there (unless you are still bound in Hinterlands), Sell/repair/get 4 stacks food/drink. Fly to Stormwind, go to the Mage District, then go on top of the Wizard's Tower (37,81). Get the quest [45] Vital Supplies from High Sorcerer Andromath. 2. Fly to Darkshire (Duskwood). In Darkshire go talk to Watchmaster Sorigal (he's just down the path from the gryphon master), get the follow up [45] Supplies for Nethergarde. Fly to Nethergarde Keep (Blasted Lands). In Nethergarde: Turn in [45] Supplies for Nethergarde at Quartermaster Lungertz. Turn in [47] Nektrum's Medaillon at Thadius Grimshade, he'sinside the big tower, on the highest floor. Get the follow up [47] The Divination. Turn it in, get the follow up [47] Return to the Hinterlands (Elite). 3. Ride out of Nethergarde Keep, go west / northwest until you find the two Blood Elves at (50,14). Get all their quests: [50] A Boar's Vitality [50] Snickefang Jowls [50] The Basilisk's Bite [50] The Decisive Striker [50] Vulture's Vigor Start killing directly from here, you can find all the animals you need to kill for theses quests in the upper part of Blasted Lands. Avoid the area around the Dark Portal and the Tainted Scar. Avoid anything that is level 52 or above. Kill pretty much everything on your way until you have all the quests completed. Beware of the big drake flying around named Teremus the Devourer. Besides this, just kill everything :P What you'll need to kill the most though are vultures and basilisks, so here is a path you should follow, listing every possible Vulture spawn (there's also a few vulture roamers but you'll run into those too from time to time) so try to get all of them every cycle. Completing all the quests will take a while, but here are a few tips: o Melees: As soon as possible try to finish the quest [50] The Decisive Striker and go turn it in, you'll get a +50 AGI buff for 1 Hour. When that buff wears out, go turn in either Snickerfang Jowls (+50 STR buff) or A Boar's Vitality (+50 STA buff) depending on your preferences. o Casters: As soon as possible try to finish the quest [50] A Boar's Vitality and turn it in for a +50 STA buff. Later on after your sta buff wears off, try to finish [50] The Basilisk's Bite for a +50 INT buff. These buffs will help you killing faster. Make good use of them :) 4. While killing mobs in Blasted Lands you might loot an Imperfect Draenethyst Fragment on one of them. Go to Kum'Isha the Collector (51,35). Get the quest [55] Everything Counts in Large Amounts and turn it in. No need to get the follow up quest unless you get another Imperfect Draenethyst Fragment. If you are extremely lucky you'll find a Flawless Draenetyst Sphere (I didn't :( ) In that case get the other quest from Kum'Isha and turn it in. 5. Turn in all the other blasted lands quest when they are done, don't get the follow ups (they are repeatable if you want to get more of those nifty clickable buffs later on). Now you should be approximately 4 bubbles away from level 50 if you did this right. 6. Hearthstone to Ironforge (or to Hinterlands if you are still bound there). Go to Aerie Peak in Hinterlands, talk to Gryphon Master Talonaxe. (he's at the very top of Aerie Peak) Get the follow up [53] Saving Sharpbeak (Elite). Now you got 3 reasons to go to the top of Jintha'Alor. The Mallet of Zul'Farrak being one of them, but most importantly: o o [50] The Ancient Egg (Elite) and [53] Saving Sharpbeak (Elite) 7. Build a group of level 50+ and go to Jintha'Alor (66,66). It's doable with 3 level 50s but it will be long and very tedious at the end, I suggest you try to fill up the group. Fight your way to the top of Jintha'Alor, then go to Vile Priestess Hexx (59,78). She has one guard, you can wait till the Priestess wanders in the cave and get her guard solo. Then get the Priestess solo, kill her and loot the Hexx's key from her. Also don't forget to forge the Mallet of Zul'Farrak, just click your Sacred Mallet while being next to the Altar. Go inside the cave behind where you fought the Vile Priestess. Follow this path to find the Ancient Egg: You'll find Hitah'ya the Keeper and 2 guards patrolling around the Ancient Egg. Kill Hitah'ya the Keeper first, should be a pushover for a group of 4 or 5. Get the Ancient Egg. Once you have the Ancient Egg, clear the way out of the cave back to the Altar, from there go north towards the other cave at (56,68). Kill the two trolls guarding it's entrance. Then go through the cave and on the other side of it you'll find Sharpbeak in it's cage. Free Sharpbeak and watch him fly away with his parents. You are done, hearthstone back to Aerie Peak and turn in the quest [53] Saving Sharpbeak (Elite). Also turn in any stacks of 5 Troll Tribal Necklaces you might have gotten during your Jintha' Alor trip. Go turn the other quest in Tanaris at Steamwheedle port, and get the follow up quest [53] The God Hakkar (Dungeon) 8. Turning in the quests will make you ding level 50 or be very close, and you can go kill some trolls next to the Altar of Zul to finish your level, or some ogres in Tanaris. For those who didn't do Zul'Farrak: Time to grind! Ding level 50, and end of Chapter II. Chapter 3 - [Level 50 - 60] Journey from Maraudon to Silithus Introduction This guide starts at level 50, it is the 3rd chapter of my guide. Before starting I suggest you read the introduction and recommendations of my 1st Chapter. If you are already level 50+ and just found this guide, I suggest you start at some point in the Chapter II so you get the following quests, which we will be doing in this chapter: • • • • [49] Rise of the Silithid [50] Into the Temple of Atal'Hakkar (Dungeon) [51] The Stone Circle [53] The God Hakkar (Dungeon) However, if at any moment in the guide you lack quest log space (because of a class quest you don't want to abandon for exemple), then abandon [50] Into the Temple of Atal'Hakkar, you can easily get it back later on in Stormwind right before you go to the Sunken Temple. Also, this guide doesn't take into account tradeskills, class specific quests or PvP. It's 100% focused on getting the most experience possible in the shortest possible time while doing a lot of quests and enjoying as much content as possible, any race/class combination can do this guide. The most part of the guide is doable solo, when it's not it will be mentioned. The guide has been tested with four different characters, non twinked, played by the wow-pro team: a warrior, a mage, a rogue and a hunter to ensure that the guide is accessible for any class. Enjoy! Shopping List • Before level 54 1X Mithril Casing (about 70-90silver at the AH) • Before level 58 (but can equip it at level 52): 1X Your class "Dungeon Set 1" bracers. Example: Mages should buy Magister's Bindings. Druids should buy Wildheart Bracers. • The sooner the better 3X Traveller backpacks (those 16 Slot backpacks). They go for 5g-8g at the auction house. Hunters and warlock should just buy two, since one of their bag slots is reserved for quiver or soul bag. Having a lot of bag space is really important. The higher you get in levels, the more we will go for long xp circuits far from any vendor. At level 60 when you will go farm money or anything, it will also be very handy to have a lot of bag space. Why only 3 traveller backpacks and not 4? Because at level 60 you will do a long quest line named [60] You Are Rakh'likh, Demon (Elite), and one of the rewards is a 16-slot bag, so no need to waste money on a 4th traveller pack. Level 50 1. Go To Maraudon, follow this guide I wrote about Maraudon. Doing all the quests (or at least the main ones) shoud get you about 75% done in level 50. Don't turn in the quest [51] Seed of Life though, it's in Moonglade and we'll make a stop there later on in the chapter. 2. Time to explore new areas! Repair, resupply food and drink (3 stacks), check the AH. Make Ironforge your homepoint. Buy 15 silk cloth if you don't have that on you already. You'll need them for a searing gorge quest. In short: Go to Searing Gorge. In details: From Ironforge, fly to Thelsamar, then go south to Badlands. In Badlands you can find the entrance to the Searing Gorge on the western end of the Badlands, south of Kargath (the horde outpost) at (3,61) Inside Searing Gorge: Follow the trail north and then west around the area named "The Cauldron" and find Kalaran Windblade (38,39). Get the quest [48] Divine Retribution then talk to Kalaran again and go through his dialogue. Turn in the quest and get the follow up [48] The Flawless Flame. Go a bit further west and you should find a path going up the mountain to Thorium Point (32,33). In Thorium point, find an panel at (37,26). Right click it and get the quests: o [48] JOB OPPORTUNITY: Culling the Competition o [48] STOLEN: Smithing Tuyere and Lookout's Spyglass o [50] WANTED: Overseer Maltorius (Elite) Get the 3 quests from Hansel Heavyhands: o o o [49] Incendosaurs? Whateverosaur is More like It. [49] Curse These Fat Fingers [49] Fiery Menace! and [50] What the Flux? from Master Smith Burninate. Note: If you ever need to sell and repair, you should go to this NPC. Get the flight path. Your quest log should look like this: note: You should have [49] Rise of the Silithid instead of March of the Silithid, which is the follow up. We will get it later in the guide. Start of Searing Gorge circuit #1 3. First, go south where you'll find a big wheel (its part of a dark iron dwarven forge) and kill all the Dark Iron Steamsmith you find there (39,50), there should be 5 or 6 around here. Hopefully one of them will drop the smithing tuyere you need. If not, lets just go on, we'll come back here later. 4. Start heading east and kill any elemental or Heavy War Golem you find on the way. Also kill Dark Iron Taskmasters and Dark Iron Slavers on your way. Don't wait for respawns, just kill them while going east. At (59,35) mount up and ride southeast to Grimesilt Dig site and find a little wooden house at (65,62) behind the dig site, which actually looks like some public toilet. Right click it and get the quest [45] Caught!. Start killing the Dark Iron dwarves in the camp as well as the golems around here. After you have killed 8 Dark Iron Gelologists and got 15 silk cloth (if you don't have them, kill more of those dwarves, they drop silk cloth), go back to the Wooden Outhouse and turn in the quest, don't get the follow up though. 5. Now go back to the digsite, and clear it entirely, especially the northern part. Get full HP/Mana and get the quest from Dorius Stonetender [48] Suntara Stones. At (66,44) he will stop to catch his breath and will get ambushed by 4 lvl 43 Dark Iron Steelshifter. Easy fight for you but make sure you get at least all but one off Dorius quickly so that he doesn't die. At (74,19) he will get assassinated (you can't help it) and a parchment will appear on the floor next to him. Click it and turn in the quest, get the follow up [48] Suntar Stones. 6. Ride southwest to the entrance of The Cauldron (63,38). Inside the Cauldron, kill all the Dark Iron dwarves and Elementals you find. The Blazing Elementals drop the Heart of Flame you need, the Magma Elementals don't drop it but they are placeholders for possible Blazing Elemental respawns, so kill them as well. Also kill any Heavy War Golem you find. Note: If while killing dwarves you find a "Grimsite Outhouse Key", right click it to start the quest [47] The Key to Freedom, we will turn it in later on. 7. Progress westwards inside the Cauldron until you find an iron slope going up at (46,53). Follow this slope until you find an entrance to the Slag Pit at (41,54). Inside the slag pit go across the bridge, on your left will be the Quarry Gate, go through it. Work your way northwards until a bigger room where you'll find Enslaved Archeologists and a big 52 Elite elite golem lying down (ignore it). Go up the iron slope, midway on the slope you have 2 options, straight or left. Go straight. You'll soon enter a room with several pairs of taskmasters and slavers. In this room further in and to the right you'll find Overseer Maltorius and 2 Dark Iron Sentries. These are 3 elites so you can't solo them. You can either try to find more people (I managed to duo it with mage + paladin) or just abandon this quest. However, behind these 3 elites you can find Secret Plans: Fiery Flux. You need to click the plan and not be interupted for 6 seconds. So how do you do this? Well several classes can't do it, Paladins for example. Some can, like mage: Sheep the overseer, let the 2 sentries come to you, Iceroot them, run for the scroll and loot it fast, then jump down the ledge behind the scroll. Or warlock, hunter: Send in the pet, quickly loot the scroll and jump down. Or warrior: charge the Taskmaster, and use intimidating shout. Loot the scroll quickly and jump down. Engineers can probably make it too if they got a high level target dummy. Anyway, that's if you can't find people to kill those 3 elites with you, so try to find people for it and in the meantime you can go on with the other quests inside the Slag Pit. Better try it with 2 other people, its a tough fight because Overseer is a mage and casts polymorph. If you got paladin or priest they can dispell it. Best is to sap/sheep Overseer and kill the 2 sentries first, then deal with the overseer alone. 8. From the same big room, go over the iron bridge which is on the opposite side of the 3 elites. On the other side of the bridge, jump down to the lower floor at the drop off spot indicated on the map. From this spot go east and you should find Incendosaurs, kill 20 of them. 9. When done with that, go back up the ramp and then get out of the Slag pit, jump down back into the Cauldron and work your way westwards looking for Blaze Elementals until you get 4 Heart of Flame. 10. Then go to the iron slope you took previously at (46,53) Follow this slope but this time skip the first entrance to the slag pit, and get on the elevator (40,54). The elevator will stop at the 1st floor and 2nd floor but don't get off. Wait until it's on the 3rd floor from there you can get out of the Cauldron. Kill every Steamsmith you find around the buildings infront and to the left of you after getting off the elevator (39,50). There is 5 Steamsmiths at this spot, pray that one of them drops a smithing Tuyere. If not don't worry, we'll kill more of these later. 11. Kill every Heavy War Golem around and go north to Karalan Windblade (39,38). Turn in the quest and get the follow up [48] Forging the Shaft 12. Go to thorium point and turn in the quests you have completed. When turning in [50] What the Flux?, Master Smith Burninate will open 3 new quests to you, but they are just to work on thorium brotherhood faction, so don't bother unless you care about this faction. You should be level 51 by now, if not you should grind on dark iron dwarves in the slag pit for exemple to catch up. Level 51 1. Sell and repair, then go south to the big dwarven forge/wheel (39,50) and kill Dark Iron Steamsmiths again. 2. Then go west and then south, basically staying close to the cauldron but never going down in it. Kill every dwarf and golem on your way. Basically make circles around the cauldron. Also make sure you kill any Greater Lava Spider on sight. There is alot of them in an area west of the cauldron (28,47). While doing circles around the cauldron, make sure you kill the Dark Iron Lookouts you can find at the feet of each of the 4 watch towers. They drop the spyglass you need for one of the quests. 3. Anyway, as soon as you got 8 Thorium Plated Daggers, go back to Kalaran Windblade, even if you didn't finish the other quests yet. Note: The Thorium Plated Daggers can drop on any dark iron dwarf, it generally takes me a full turn around the cauldron to get 8 of them. Turn in the quest at Kalaran Windblade and get the follow up [50] The Flame's Casing (Elite) 4. Go kill the 5 Dark Iron Steamsmiths again before you go, if you haven't got the Smithing Tuyere yet. 5. Now you should ask in Looking for Group channel if anyone is interested in doing [50] The Flame's Casing (Elite) and [50] Prayer to Elune (Elite) (we are gonna get this quest on the way soon). You can duo these two quests but it might be a bit tough depending on the class mix you get. So if you find more it's even better. If you don't find people to help you immediatly, just keep on doing circles around the cauldron killing dwarves, giants and greater lava spiders while waiting on people to join your group. 6. Once you got yourself a group (or at least one level 48+ partner). Go west to the Twilight camp at (24,34). There is a cavern with Twilight mobs further to the west but don't go there, first you should go up a narrow path up the mountain. When you are up the path, you should face your first twilight mobs, they are all elite and lvl 48-50. Clear through them eastwards until you reach a small pool of lava. (27,26) The pool of lava might look too crowded, but actually you can get solo pulls if you know the trick. Out of the 6 mobs at this lava pool, 3 of them are Twilight Idolaters, and they don't assist if you pull a mob that is next to them, they are busy performing a ritual. They will only attack if you attack them directly. So first you must pull the mobs one by one and then the idolaters. Once you go the lava pool cleared, you can go get the quest from that captured elf, Zameal Lunthistle. After taking his quest, talk to him again and go through his dialogue, then turn in the quest and get the follow up: [50] Prayer to Elune. 7. Now all that is left for you to do is kill Twilight mobs (any of them) until you get : o o Symbol of Ragnaros Prayer to Elune When you got both these items, you can say goodbye to your group and go back to Kalaran Windblade. You can also go to thorium point for a quick sell/repair if necessary. 8. Turn in your quest at Kalaran Windblade and get the follow up [50] The Torh of Retribution. Turn it in, watch him craft the torch, then get the quest [50] The Torch of Retribution. Right click the stick surrounded by a green aura, complete the quest. Talk to Kalaran again, get the quest [50] Squire Maltrake. Turn in the quest at Squire Maltrake and get the follow up [52] Set Them Ablaze! (Elite) Luckily, this is one of the elite quests you can solo! 9. Go southwest to the first watch tower (33,52). Don't forget to kill any mob you might still need on the way (golem, spider, dark iron steamsmith or lookout) When you are at the 1st watch tower, clear any mobs guarding it (minus the elite inside of it), then search the Torch of Retribution in your inventory, equip it, and put it on a hotkey. There is one elite Dark Iron Sentry on the tower, you don't need to kill it, just run past it (or stealth past it if you are rogue/druid). If you can iceroot / sheep / fear it, do so, but you don't have to. Just ignore it, quickly search for a small bowl on the floor named "Sentry Brazier" and right click it. It will be instantly lit. Then jump down and run away to lose aggro on the elite. Do exactly the same thing on the 2nd tower (35,59), the 3rd tower (43,63) and the 4th tower accessible only through a bridge at (52,57). Note: The 4th tower is the one with the most Dark Iron Lookouts, in case you didn't get a Lookout's Spyglass. 10. After you are done setting the 4th tower ablaze, go east to the Grimsite dig Camp and go turn in [47] The Key to Freedom at the wooden outhouse. Optional: If you feel like you are capable of soloing a level 48 Elite (green for you at lvl 51), or if you are not solo, from the grimsite camp go south and find a narrow path going up the mountain at (65,80), you will find a named rhino named Margol the Rager. I soloed him with ease at lvl 51 as mage, warrior and rogue, I just used long cooldown abilities and didn't even need to use potions. He wanders from this path in the mountain to his cave is at (72,77). Loot Margol's Horn from him and click it to start the quest [48] The Horn of the Beast. 11. Go back to Squire Maltrake (38,39), turn in the quest and watch Kalaran transform into a dragon, make his speech and then he'll fly away. Righ tclick the treasure chest named "Hoard of the Black Dragonflight" next to where he was, accept the quest [50] Trinkets... Then click the chest againt and complete the quest. Look in your inventory for the red box named Hoard of the Black Dragonflight, open it and loot whats inside of it (especially the Molt, which you will need later on for a quest) You don't need the Torch of Retribution anymore, you can destroy it or bank it. 12. Now there's only one thing left for you to do: finish all the quests that you haven't finished yet, and you already should know where all the mobs you need are. Once you have completed all these quests, go back to thorium point and turn them in. 13. Fly (don't hearthstone) to Ironforge and then fly to Thelsamar, ride southwest along the road until you find Mountaineer Pebblebitty (18,84). Turn in the quest [48] The Horn of the Beast (Elite). Hearthstone to Ironforge, talk to the Innkeeper and get the quest [50] Assisting Arch Druid Staghelm. In Ironforge go to the Hall of Explorers and talk to Curator Thorius, turn in the quest [48] Proof of Deed and [48] Suntara Stones. Take the follow up [48] At last!, don't get the other follow up. Also get the quest [52] A Little Slime Goes a Long Way from Laris Geardawdle and [52] Passing the Burden from Historian Karnik if you don't have this quest already (those who did Chapter II of my guide should have it). 14. Fly to Thelsamar, go talk to Mountaineer Pebblebitty once again and turn in the quest for another 4400 xp and the Key to Searing Gorge (which is kinda useless nowadays since they added the Thorium Point flight path, so you can bank it). End of Searing Gorge circuit #1. Note: I had XP Bonus for the major part of the circuit, however if you do the math it's still around 30000 XP / hour. Go back to Ironforge, sell, repair, check the Auction house. 15. Go to the Mystic ward and get the follow up [52] Arcane Runes from Tymor, also get [52] An Easy Pickup from him. Go to the Military Ward and get the follow up from Xiggs Fuselighter, turn in the quest so you receive 2 "Standard Issue Flare Gun". Fly to Menethil Harbor and take the boat to Auberdine, then fly to Rut'theran Village, go to Darnassus and turn in the quests in the Temple of the Moon: o [49] Rise of the Silithid and get the quest o [53] March of the Silithid o [50] Prayer to Elune Go to Arch Druid Staghelm, who is on top of the tower at the Cenarion Enclave and get the follow up [50] Un'Goro Soil. 16. Make Darnassus your home location, ask a Sentinel if you don't know where the Inn is. Get out of Darnassus and fly back to Auberdine, then fly to Gadgetzan. In Gadgetzan, turn in [53] March of the Silithid at Alchemist Pestlezugg and get the follow up [53] Bungle in the Jungle. Also get [54] Super Sticky from Tran'rek. 17. Resupply food/drink (4 stacks), then ride southwest to the slope going down to Ungoro Crater (27,57). Start of Un'goro Circuit #1 Go down the slope and find Torwa Pathfinder to the right up a small hill (71,75). Get the 2 quests: o [53] The Fare of Lar'korwi o [55] The Apes of Un'Goro From now on, while in Ungoro Crater look around for crystals. There is 4 types of crystals: Red, Blue, Yellow and Green crystals. Loot them anytime you see them until you got 7 of each color. Also look for Ungoro Dirt Piles and loot the Un'goro soil from them. Un'goro soil also drops fairly often from most creatures in Un'goro crater, you should try to have at least about 50 Ungoro Soil before we leave Un'goro, because we will need extra soils for 2 other quests which will require you to transmuate Un'goro soils into Morrowgrain. 18. Go northwest until you find "A Wrecked Raft" at (63,68). Right click it and accept the quest [52] It's a Secret to Everybody. Take a dive right next to where the wrecked raft is and look underwater for yellow bag called "A Small Pack". Click it, turn in and get the follow up. You should receive a small pack in your inventory but don't open it for now, it will save you some bagspace. Kill every dinausaur you find on your way and normally you should find a Mangled Journal at some point (if you don't you will later on in Ungoro, don't worry). Right click the journal and get the quest [50] Williden's Journal. 19. Go northeast from here until (68,56), where you will find a big dinosaur carcass on the floor. Right click it to get the Piece of Threshadon Carcass. The cog will be grey at most part of the threshadon's carcass. The only spot where you can get the yellow cog and loot the flesh is at the base of the neck, and only on the east side of the carcass. Once you have your "Piece of Threshadon Carcass", go back to Torwa Pathfinder, turn in the quest and get the follow up [53] The Scent of Lar'korwi. 20. Go west back into the Marshlands until you find some purple eggs on the floor (67,73). Clear the ravasaurs around it, then step up on the egg pile, a Lar'korwi mate should appear and attack you, kill her and loot the Ravasaur Pheromone Gland (75% drop rate). Then go to the next pile of eggs north of this one (66,67), do the same thing. Go back and forth between these 2 egg piles until you got 2 Glands. Go back to Torwa Pathfinder and turn in the quest, don't get the follow up. 21. Go back to the Marshlands and kill Dinosaurs while looking for crystals until the following 2 goals are reached: o level 52 o 7 Power Crystals of each color Level 52 1. Ride north then northwest to Marshall's Refuge (46,13). Get the following quests: o o o o o [52] Chasing A-Me 01 [51] Shizzle's Flyer from Shizzle [52] Muigin and Larion from Muigin [55] Beware of Pterrordax from the Wanted Poster next to Spraggle Frock. [51] Roll the Bones from Spark Nilminer Turn in [50] Williden's Journal and get [53] Expedition Salvation from Williden Marshal and [52] Alien Ecology from Hol'Anyee Marshal. Open the "small pack" in your inventory and loot all the items from it, then turn in [52] It's a Secret to Everybody at Linken (he's inside a tree trunk south of Williden Marshal), don't get the follow up yet. You can destroy the throwing daggers and the Faded Photograph from your inventory. 2. Go inside the cave at Marshall's Refuge and go to the end of it where you'll find a little gnome named J.D. Collie. Get her quest [53] Crystals of Power and turn it in. Then get the 3 follow up quests she gives you: o o o [53] The Eastern Pylon [53] The Northern Pylon [53] The Western Pylon Your quest log should look like this: There's a weapon merchant, use it to repair and sell junk. You can also destroy the extra power crystals if you still have any, for more bagspace. 3. Get out of Marshall's Refuge and ride east along the wall until (54,13). At this spot go up the mountain and you should find the Northern Crystal Pylon. Click it, and examine it, you should get a "quest complete" message. Further north of the crystal you should find some Pterrordax (3 of them normally), kill them. From this point on, kill the following mobs on sight: o o o Bloodpetals of any kind (those walking flowers) Pterrordaxes Diametradons And also beware of the Tyrant Devilsaurs, there is a few of them roaming in Un'Goro. They are lvl 55ish elite, run fast and hit hard. So watch your back. 4. Go east to Fungal Rock. You should find plenty of apes there outside and inside the cave. Kill apes there until you get 2 un'goro gorilla, stomper and thunderer pelts. Inside the ape cave at the first fork go right until you find A-Me 01, turn in the quest but don't get the follow up. Be careful when fighting the Un'Goro Gorillas, they call for help when they get low health, and any other ape in a rather wide range will come to help. So, fight them away from other apes. 5. Go south until you find 3 black pools with Tar Creepers and Tar Beasts around them (60,26). Clear these 3 pools until you have 12 Super Sticky Tar (drop rate is about 25% per kill) 6. Go southeast until the expedition encampment (68,36) and loot the Crate of Foodstuffs. Go southeast until you find the Eastern Crystal Pylon (76,48). Click it and examine it. Go south to Torwa Pathfinder (71,75) and turn in [55] The Apes of Un'Goro, don't get the follow up. Turn in [53] The Fare of Lar'Korwi. Don't get the follow up. 7. Go west to the Slithering Scar and clear yourself a path to the bug lair entrance at (50,76). Inside the bug lair at the first fork go left, clear the circular room and then stand in the middle of it, look in your inventory for a black vial named "Scraping Vial" and click it. If it doesn't work try different spots in this room until you get a Hive Wall Sample. At this point you might already have gotten a Gorishi Scent Gland. If you didn't, keep on killing these bugs until one drops. It can drop from any of the bugs, inside or outside the lair, it doesn't matter. 8. Go directly south of the bug lair and up the mountain (50,88). You should find 2 Pterrordax there, kill them. A bit further to the west you should find another of those spots up the mountains with 4 or 5 Pterrordax there (44,87), kill them. Stay at this spot until you get your 10 Pterrodax kills, you can kill some bugs while waiting on respawns. 9. Then get on your mount and ride to the expedition camp at (38,66), try to avoid the aggros as much as possible because most mobs are too tough for you here. At the expedition camp, look for a pile of crates named "Research Equipment" and loot them. Then go northwest, run away from any aggro if you have to, the lake is pretty safe so I suggest you just swim through it, going northwest until you reach the big rock on the other bank. Behind this rock you 'll find a little goblin named Krakle, get his quest quickly [55] Find the Source. (Quickly because a Devilsaur roams at this place every now and then. :P) 10. Go directly west and a bit to the south and you will find the western crystal pylon (23,57). Click it and examine it. Ride northeast back to Marshall's Refuge and sell and repair. If you haven't finished [52] Muigin and Larion, go out and kill some more flowers until you complete it. Go to the area which is southeast of the black pools where we killed the Tar beasts. There are plenty there and they are the easiest flowers to kill (65,27). Also make a stop at the Northern Crystal Pylon (55,13) and kill the 2 Pterrordax there, you should have your 10 Pterrordax kills then. 11. Then go back to Marshall's Refuge and turn in: o o o o o o [52] Alien Ecology [52] Muigin and Larion, Get the follow up [52] A Visit to Gregan [53] Expedition Salvation [53] The Eastern Pylon [53] The Northern Pylon [53] The Western Pylon, get the follow up quest [53] Making Sense of it from J.D. Collie. Turn it in. You can bank the book you get as reward from this quest (it tells you how to combine crystals at the various pylons for some consumable crystals with effects like heals or damage shields, but nothing so great, so just bank the book to have more bagspace). Get out of the cave and get the quest from Linken [52] It's a secret to everybody. 12. Get on your mount and ride west along the mountain until you reach two stone pillars (29,22). From there, follow the path going up the mountain until you zone into Silithus, keep going west on the road until you reach Cenarion Hold. In Cenarion Hold find the Hippogryph Master, he's at the feet of the highest tower. Fly to Gadgetzan. In Gadgetzan, turn in [54] Super Sticky and [53] Bungle in the Jungle, don't get the follow up quest. 13. Hearthstone to Darnassus, go to the Cenarion Enclave, behind the tower you should find Jenal. Turn in the quest [50] Un'Goro Soil. End of Un'goro circuit #1 Note: This time no xp bonus at all, and the XP from turning in [50] Un'goro Soil is missing, because I went LD before using hearthstone, and managed to take the screenshot quick. So that's actually 41000 XP/ Hour, not too shabby! Go to the top of the Cenarion tower and get the quest [50] Morrowgrain Research from Arch Druid Fandral Staghelm. A floor below get the follow up from Mathrengyl Bearwalker. Search your inventory for something named "Evergreen Pouch". From now on, click it everytime the timer is ready, it will create an "Evergreen herb casing", open it and loot what's inside. It can be various herbs but sometimes it will be Morrowgrain, and that's what you need. You need 2 Ungoro Soil everytime you want to use the pouch, but you should still have about 20 left even after turning the quests. You will need a total of 20 Morrowgrain, which you might not get if you are unlucky with the evergreen pouch, however you will probably get 10 Morrowgrain at least, and that's what you'll need in short term, the other 10 morrowgrains are not so urgent, and we'll go back to Un'goro if you run out of Un'goro soils anyway. However once you got 20 Morrowgrain you can stop using the evergreen pouch. I personally sold the seeds and the un'goro soil I had left after obtained my 20 morrowgrain, and also destroyed the evergreen pouch, because I like having bag space :p. Don't stand still and do nothing while waiting on the pouch timer though, go on with the next part of the guide! You can click on the evergreen pouch every now and then everytime the cooldown is refreshed, until you get 20 Morrowgrain. 14. Repair, sell, visit the auction house and resupply food/drink (4 stacks). Also go to your class trainer to get your lvl 52 skills. (Warlocks, Paladins and Mages will have to go to Ironforge). Go to Rut'Theran village and fly to Auberdine, then ride south following the road until you zone into Ashenvale. In Ashenvale keep following the road until you hit Astraanar (36,49) Make Astranaar your home location and get the new flight path. Then keep going east following the road until you zone into Azshara (92,46), it's a long ride. Right after entering Azshara you'll find Talrendis Point to the right (11,77). Get the new flight path. Get the two quests from the tauren named Loh'atu: [47] A Land Filled with Hatred [47] Spiritual Unrest Go north on the other side of the road to Shadowsong Shrine (13,74). Kill 6 Highborne Apparitions and 6 Highborne Lichling. There's more of them just a bit further to the northeast 15. When done with that, go further to the northeast until Haldarr Encampment, kill satyrs there until you have [47] A Land Filled with Hatred complete. 16. Go back to Talrendis Point and turn in the two quests. Then get back on the road and ride northeast. Go around the ruins of Eldarath by the west side of it and keep going northeast. Avoid the Timbermaw Furlbogs, don't kill any of them even if they attack you, just run away. Avoid the other timbermaw camp "ursolan", go around it by the east side and keep riding northeast until you get to sharp hill at (53,21), get to the top of it, you can only access it from the north. Uptop you'll find a goblin named Kim'jael. Get his quest [53] Kim'jael Indeed. 17. Just southeast of Kim'jael you'll find Thalassian Base Camp (55,26). Start killing Blood Elves, a lot of blood elves. This is a good grinding spot, rarely occupied. The elves have low hit points and can drop runecloth, and they respawn fast! For those who aren't already level 53, I suggest you grind until you are level 53 and 4 bubbles of exp in (approximately 25000 XP). Read the Next paragraph though while you grind on those elves. Level 53 1. In the blood elf camp you'll find several crates named "Kim'Jael's Equipment" scattered around. Open them all, most of the time you'll find food in it, but 25% of the time you'll find Kim'Jael's compass, scope, etc. You'll get them by pair of 2. So basically you just need to find 2 "good" crates and you are done. 2. Once you got the quest complete and have approximately 25000 xp in level 53, go back to Kim'Jael, turn in the quest, get the follow up [53] Kim'Jael's "Missing" Equipment. Ride southwest and find the path going down to the Shattered Strand (45,37), it's right next to Ursolan, southeast of it. You'll encounter some naga pretty soon, kill every naga on your way, go southwest, until you reach the Ruins of Eldarath by a path at (41,48). South of it, at (39,50) you'll find a Pillar named Rune of Jin'yael, clear the 2 ghosts guarding it and any naga close to it. Right click the pillar, it will use your drawing kit and you'll receive the Rubbing: Rune of Jin'yael. 3. A bit further to the south, at the central point of the Ruisn of Eldarath you'll find the Rune of Beth'Amara (36,53). Right click it and get the rubbing. Just southeast of this spot is the Rune of Markri (39,55), get the rubbing. And the last one is much further to the south and a bit to the east, at (42,64) you'll find the Rune of Sael'hai. Grind your way through nagas back from where you came from until the path leading to the Shattered Strand at (45,47). Consider this as a mini grinding session, because these nagas go down easily and there is a lot of them = good grind spot. You should find "Some Rune" on one of the nagas on the shattered strand, keep killing Spitelash sirens and myrmidons until one drops "Some Rune". Find the slope taking you out of the Shattered Strand back on high ground at (46,39) and then ride northeast back to Kim'Jael, turn in the quest. 4. Ride back to the Shattered strand by the same path (45,37). This time don't kill the nagas, just ride along the shore directly south, avoiding nagas as much as possible and keep going until you hit a spot where you can't go further without having to swim (58,73). Note: if you actually like this spot and feel like grinding, do so. 5. Swim east and then south to the island marked on the map (77,91), just be careful to avoid the elite giants that walk at the bottom of the sea. Anything else you can handle. Get on the Helipad and use your Standard Issue Flare Gun from your inventory. After a few seconds a gyrocopter will land and Pilot Xiggs will come out, turn in the quest [52] Arcane Runes and get the follow up [52] Return to Tymor (don't worry there is still 7000 xp to come from turning that one, I didn't make you cross the ocean for peanuts ;) ) You can destroy the Flare Gun. 6. Hearthstone to Astraanar, sell, repair and resupply food/drink up to 4 stacks. Ride to felwood this time! Follow the road east and then north at the fork. In Felwood, stay on the road until you see an elf to the right named Arathandris Silversky (54,86). Get the quest [55] Cleansing Felwood. Further along the road you'll find Emerald Sanctuary, left of the road you'll see a furlbog named Grazle (50,84), get the quest [48] Timbermaw Ally from him. In Emerald Sanctuary get [51] Forces of Jaedenar from Greta Mosshoofand [54] The Corruption of Jadefire from Eridan Bluewind. Also get the quest [54] Verifying the Corruption from Taronn Redfeather, don't get the other quest. 7. Go southwest and you'll find Deadwood Village (49,88), start slaughtering Furlbogs. Keep doing that until you complete [48] Timbermaw Ally Go back to Grazle and turn in the quest, get the follow up [55] Speak to Nafien. 8. Ride north following the road until (43,67), to the west should be a green pool, go there and kill Cursed Oozes. Each time you kill one, and after looting it, target the corpse and click on an Empty Cursed Ooze Jar from your inventory (you get these by opening the jar container you should have in your inventory). Fill up 6 Cursed Ooze Jar in the same fashion. 9. Then get back on the road and ride north until (41,59), just a bit before Jaedenar, on the left side of the road is a small green pool with tainted oozes. Fill up 6 Tainted Ooze Jar. If you lack oozes there is more just on the other side of the path leading to Jaedenar. Then go to Jaedenar (40,57), clear yourself a path westwards through Jadefire Hounds, Guardians, Adepts and Cultists until you get to the green pool at (35,60), then go back out of Jaedenar and you should be done with [51] Forces of Jaedenar normally. 10. When done with Forces of Jaedenar, get back on the road and ride south, back to Emerald Sanctuary. Get the follow up [52] Collection of the Corrupt Water from Greta Mosshoof. Ride north on the road until (42,69), which is just before the green pool where you killed the Cursed Oozes. Go west until you find Satyrs among the ruins (38,69). Kill whats on the kill list of [54] The Corruption of the Jadefire. Shadowstalkers are stealthed but you can see them from far enough. Work your way westwards through the satyrs until you reach a green moonwell. Xavathras should be to the left of it with a guard. I killed the weak guard first quickly and then killed Xavathras. Use long cooldown abilities if needed. Then get the last kills you need to complete the quest on your way out. 11. When [54] The Corruption of the Jadefire is complete, get back on the road, go north and then west back into Jaedenar, once again clear the way up to the Green pool where you already went to when you did [51] Forces of Jaedenar.

Further to the east and a bit to the north at the last crater you should find Entropic Horrors, they are just a bit higher level than the Entropic Beasts but still in your range. Kill two Entropic Horrors then get back on the road. If you don't find Entropic Horros, kill Entropic Beasts until Entropic Horros respawn instead. 13. Ride north until the road curves to the right, just a bit further after the curve at (42,23), go north on a trail going up to Jadefire Run. In Jadefire Run clear yourself a path towards the west, and then take a narrow path towards the southwest. At the end of that path you'll find Xavaric (39,22), he is surrounded by 2 other satyrs and he moves from one to the other. You can actually pull each of the guards solo, if you wait for Xavaric to be away enough from one of them. Kill Xavaric, he's an easy fight if pulled solo. Loot the Flute of Xavaric and right click it to get the quest [54] Flute of Xavaric. 14. Keep killing Satyrs in Jadefire run until you get 5 Jadefire Felbind (they can drop from any of the 3 types of satyrs in Jadefire run) and complete the kill list of [54] Further Corruption. 15. Get back on the road and ride until Irontree Cavern as shown on map (55,15). Kill Warpwood Elementals until you get 15 Blood Amber, they always drop.

Get back on the road and ride north until the entrance of Timbermaw Hold, talk to Nafien, turn in the quest. Get the other quest [55] Deadwood of the North. Go south on the road and at the first curve to the right make a u-turn, felpaw village should be right infront of you (63,14). 16. Start killing Deadwood furlbogs until the kill list is complete, be careful with the Den Watchers, they call for help, fight them away from the others. Also check your reputation tab (press "U" key), you must be 150 reputation points away from "Unfriendly" before you go turn in the quest, so if you aren't, kill some more furlbogs. If you find a Deadwood Ritual Totem, don't click it, you can't do the quest yet, as you need to be neutral with the timbermaw furlbogs, and since we are short on quest log space, just keep the totem in your inventory for now. 17. Go turn in the quest at Nafien, get the follow up [55] Speak to Salfa. You should now no longer be attacked on sight by the Timbermaw Furlbogs. Note: if you get 5 deadwood headdress feathers, turn them in at nafien as well, it's a repeatable quest for extra faction with the timbermaws. (You get +50 faction points per turn in) 18.

Ride south to Donova Snowden, turn in the quest [52] It's a Secret to Everybody, let her do her speech, and then get the follow up [52] The Videre Elixir, don't get the other quest. If you didn't go to Maraudon and/or if you don't have the quest [51] Seed of Life, use your hearthstone to Astraanar and skip the next paragraph. 19. Go back to Timbermaw Hold, this time in the tunnels, go under the bridge and to the north, keep going until you exit in Moonglade. In Moonglade go north straight to the shrine of Remulos (36,42), turn in [51] Seed of Life at Keeper Remulos. Use your Hearhstone to Astraanar 20. In Astraanar, take a flight to Auberdine, make Auberdine your home location and fly to Feathermoon in Feralas. 10 minute break while on the Hippogryph! In Feathermoon get the quest [50] Jonespyre's Request from the Innkeeper, then go talk to Quintis Jonespyre at the top of the tower east of the inn, get the follow up [50] The Mystery of Morrowgrain and turn it in, as you should have 10 Morrowgrains at least by now, even if you're not lucky. 21. Sell/repair and resupply food/drink (up to 3 stacks). Take the boat to Feralas, then get on the road and ride north to the twin colossals, then go west to find Gregan Brewspewer, he's exactly under the "O" of the first o of the Twin Colossals. Turn in [52] A Visit to Gregan and get the follow up [52] Haze of Evil (Dungeon) Then buy a "bait" from Gregan (costs 20 silver) 22. Get back on the road and ride north until you are east of the Ruins of Ravenwind. You should find Miblon Snarltooth left of the road infront of some small temple with no roof at (44,10). Place the bait on the floor infront of Miblon, the door behind him will open, quickly go and loot an evoroot. Now you should be level 54 or close. If you are not level 54, go west to the ruins of Ravenwind and grind on harpies until you ding. (Remember to keep the Vibram Plumes from those harpies for the darkmoon faire tickets) Level 54 1. Keep on grinding on those harpies until your hearthstone timer is almost reset (approximately 2 minutes). Go back to Gregan, turn in the quest to get your 3 Videre Elixir. Use your hearthstone back to Auberdine, then fly to Darnassus and turn in the quest [50] Morrowgrain at Arch Druid Staghelm if you got enough morrowgrain, if you got unlucky with combines and don't have enough morrowgrain and are out of Un'goro soils or Tharlendris seeds, go buy some extra seeds at the quest giver in the Cenarion Enclave (to be on the safe side, buy 3 Tharlendris seed per morrowgrain you still need), we will go back to Un'goro crater soon and you'll get the last un'goro soils you need there to complete this morrowgrain quest. Sell and repair, resupply food/drink (3 stacks), check the AH. 2. Go get your new skills at your class trainer. Go to ironforge and turn in: [52] Return to Tymor (mystic ward) [52] A Little Slime goes a long way Get the follow up quest. [54] A Little Slime goes a long way. Go back to Auberdine (use hearthstone if it's up). Fly to Talonbranch Glade (Felwood). Go to Timbermaw Hold, exit into Winterspring. Start of xp rate winterspring --> Un'goro --> Ratchet Ride south to Donova Snowden, turn in [52] The Videre Elixir and get the follow up [52] Meet at the Grave. Ride back to Talonbranch Glade and fly to Talrendris Point (Azshara). Ride west to Ashenvale, in Ashenvale follow the road west/southwest then south to the Barrens. 3. In Barrens ride southeast to Ratchet. Infront of a small house close to the docks you'll find Marvon's Chest (62,38), loot the "Stone Circle" from it. Inside the house get the quest [55] Volcanic Activity from Liv Rizzlefix. Make Ratchet your home location (yes, it's possible for alliance). From ratchet ride south along the merchant coast and go east to the Tidus Stair (65,43), right next to the ocean you should find Islen Waterseer next to a hut. 4. Turn in [52] Seeking Spiritual Aid, watch her summon a water elemental spirit and then take her follow up [54] Cleansed Water Returns to Felwood. Get back on your mount and ride south along the merchant coast, past Northwatch Hold. Keep following the coast until you enter Dustwallow Marsh, then keep following the coast in Dreadmurk Shore until you arrive in Theramore Isle. Take a gryphon ride to Gadgetzan. In Gadgetzan, sell/sepair, resupply food/drink up to 4 stacks. Long session incoming. Get the mithril casing from the Gadgetzan bank, if you don't have it on you already. 5. Go to the Gadgetzan grayveyard, just east of Gadgetzan (53,28). Drink the Videre Elixir, you'll die, but don't worry, no durability loss from this, it's normal. Release spirit but don't resurrect, go directly north from the Graveyard and up the mountain, you should soon see the yellow dot on your minimap, go to it and talk to Gaeriyan, turn in and get the follow up [52] A Grave Situation. Go back to the graveyard, resurrect and click the gravestone named "A Conspicuous Gravestone", complete the qust and get the follow up [52] Linken's Sword. You can destroy the other Videre Elixir. 6. Get back on your mount and ride directly south to Marvon Rivetseeker at the Broken Pillar (52,45), turn in [51] The Stone Circle, get his 2 follow up: [51] Into the Depths [52] Secret of the Circle Ride west/southwest until the entrance to Un'Goro. (27,57) Down the slope in Un'Goro talk to Torwa Pathfinder (71,76). Get the 2 quests from him: [55] The Mighty U'Cha and [56] The Bait for Lar'Korwi If you don't have enough space in your quest log (because of a class quest you don't want to abandon for example), abandon [50] Into the Temple of Atal'Hakkar, you can get it back easily in Stormwind later on before going to Sunken Temple. 7. Ride north until the eastern crystal pylon, go up the trail and further east and you should see some huge dinosaur skeletons at (80,49). Be full health/mana and ready to face a level 56 mob. Open Torwa's pouch in your inventory, loot the Preserved Threshadon Meat and the Pheromone Mixture, right click the meat, and then right click the Pheromone, Lar'korwi will appear, kill him. He's rather easy, I had no problem to solo it at all at level 54. Loot Lar'korwi's Head.. 8. Ride north/northwest to Fungal Rock (63,16). Enter the cave, at the fork take the narrow path in the middle, then go right and keep going until you hit the end of the cave. Just be very careful where you fight the Un'Goro Gorilla, they call for help. At the end of the cave in a room with a puddle of water and a rock in the middle you'll find U'cha, lvl 55 Gorilla. There's another gorilla in the same room but you can pull it solo if you wait for U'cha to be away. Then pull U'cha solo, kill it and loot his pelt. 9. Clear the way out of the cave, then kill all the apes outside the cave, make a clear path because you are gonna escort A-Me 01 out of this cave soon. Once there's no ape left outside the cave, go back in and go right at the fork this time. After 2 or 3 more apes you'll find A-Me 01. Turn in the quest, get the follow up, turn it in (since you already have the mithril casing), then get the next follow up, [53] Chasing A-me 01. This will start the escort quest, once again the golden rule of escort quests, let A-me 01 infront, let her get hit first and then get the mobs off her. Escort her until Karna Remtravel and turn in the quest. 10. Go up to Marshal's Refuge, turn in the quest [52] Linken's Sword, get the follow up [52] A Gnome's Assistance, go talk to J.D. Collie inside the crystal cave, turn in the quest, watch her do her speech and get the follow up [54] Linken's Memory. Get out of the cave and get the quest [55] Lost! from Spraggle Frock. Sell and repair. Go southwest until you hit the river (40,27). On the southern side of the river you'll find plenty of Dinos and some Oozes. In this area, kill every Frenzied Pterrordax, Elder Diametradon and Ooze you find. Open the "bag of empty ooze containers" from your inventory and put the 10 "Empty Pure Sample" Jar on a hotkey. Everytime you kill an ooze, loot it and then target the corpse and click the Jars to fill them up. You can stop killing Oozes once you got 10 Pure samples. Keep doing this until you complete: [51] Shizzle's Flyer [51] Roll the Bones (they drop from the Elder Diametradons approximately 25% drop chance) [55] Beware of Pterrordax [54] A Little Slime Goes a Long Way This might take a while but this is decent grinding since there's quite a lot of mobs, and you are completing 4 quests at the same time. Warning: Be careful, 2 devilsaurs roam this area from time to time. 11. When you are done with these 4 quests, go southeast to Fire Plume Ridge, climb the mountain from the southern side in the middle (49,53). Find your way to the top of Fire plume ridge, you'll have to do almost a full circle around it for that, ignore the cave with Ringo for now. Kill every fire elemental on your way and you should get the 9 Un'Goro Ash you need. When at the top of Fire Plume Ridge, next to the lava pool you should see a conic stone named "Fire Plume Ridge Hot Spot". Search your inventory for Krakle's Thermometer, right click it next to the conic stone, this should complete the quest [55] Finding the Source. Don't get too close to the cave at the top, there's a lvl 56 Elite elemental there, avoid it. 12. If you got 9 Un'Goro Ash already no need to kill more elementals, just get off fire plume ridge from the west side and ride west until Golakka hotsprings and find Krakle behind the geyser hill (30,50). Turn in the quest and get the follow up [55] The New Springs. Ride east/southeast to Torwa Pathfinder (71,76). Turn in the 2 quests: [55] The Mighty U'cha [56] The Bait for Lar'korwi 13. Go northwest to Fire Plume Ridge (yes, again!). Climb on it from the southern side in the middle (49,53) then go a bit east to reach the cave where Ringo is (52,51). Turn in the quest [55] Lost! and get the follow up [55] A Little Help from My friends. Search your inventory for Spraggle's Canteen and put it on a hotkey. Everytime Ringo faints, click the canteen while being next to him. Get off the mountain by the eastern side, then go north, run to Marshall's Refuge while making sure Ringo always follows you, try to avoid mobs as much as possible. Run inside Marshal's Refuge until Spraggle Frock, you'll get the quest complete message. 14. Time to turn in some quests! [55] Beware of Pterrordax [55] A Little Help from my Friends [51] Roll the Bones [51] Shizzle's Flyer Finally some space in the quest log! Let's hope blizzard extends it to 25 someday :P Hearthstone to Ratchet, turn in [55] Volcanic Activity at Liv Rizzlefix, in the house just down of the inn. End of xp rate winterspring --> Un'goro --> Ratchet Note: This XP rate was just to show that with a proper quest path, you get great results even though there was a lot of travelling. This was done without any XP bonus. Take the boat to Booty Bay, then fly to Stormwind. 15. Now you have two options: o 1. Get a 5 man group together and go to Sunken Temple, which I highly recommmend because we got all the quests already, just have to pick [50] Into the Temple of Atal'hakkar from Brohann Caskbelly in Stormwind's dwarven district and [53] Jammalan the Prophet in Hinterlands from the Exile or ask someone to share it. These quests will give a huge XP boost and the rewards are nice as well. o 2. You don't want to do Sunken Temple, then I suggest you go grind in Azshara at the Blood Elf camp or on the Nagas on the Shattered Strands, OR kill deadwood Furlbogs in Northern Felwood to get neutral faction with the Timbermaw Tribe and being able to turn in the totem quest. 16. Before going to Sunken Temple, bind in Stormwind, then make sure you have the 6 quests: [50] Into the Temple of Atal'Hakkar [51] Into the Depths [51] Secret of the Circle [52] Haze of Evil [53] Jammal'an the Prophet [53] The God Hakkar Follow my Guide to Sunken Temple. • • For those who don't do Sunken Temple, you will have to grind about 8000090000XP. That's approximately half a level. However there's plenty of good spots to grind at this level, and for good reasons: Harpies for your Darkmoon Epic Necklace or Deadwood Furlbogs for your Timbermaw faction. When you are done with Sunken Temple, turn in all the quests besides [52] Haze of Evil, we will go turn in it in the guide later. [53] Jammal'an the Prophet can be turned in Hinterlands at the Atal'ai Exile in Shadra 'Alor (35,73). You should have already leveled up inside the temple, if not, you'll get to level 55 from turning in the quests. Level 55 1. Sell and repair, resupply food/drink up to 4 stacks. Take the boat from Menethil Harbor to Auberdine, then fly to Rut'theran village, get the quest [55] Moontouched Wildkin. Go to Darnassus and make it your home location. For those who didn't turn in [50] Morrowgrain yet, go turn it in in Darnassus at the Cenarion Enclave. Fly to Auberdine then to Astranaar. Ride to Felwood. 2. Start of circuit Felwood --> Everlook: In Felwood just off the road to the right, turn in the quest [55] Cleansing Felwood at Arathandris Silversky (54,86). Talk to her and ask her for a Cenarion beacon. From now on when you kill stuff in Felwood you can get Corrupted Soul shards, which you will turn in later for cenarion plant salves. With those salves you can cure corrupted plants in felwood and get consumables in return. 3. Go further north to Emerald Sanctuary (51,82), turn in [54] Cleansed Water Returns to Felwood, get the follow up [55] Dousing the flames of Protection. Turn in [54] Flute of Xavaric, get the follow up [54] Felbound Ancients. Turn in [54] Further Corruption and [54] Linken's Memory, get the follow up [54] Silver heart. Turn in [54] Verifying the Corruption. Get the quest [56] To Winterspring!. 4. Ride north along the road until (44,76), you'll see bears and wolves to the east, from this spot, kill all bears and wolves you find while going north, until you have 11 Silvery Claws. Get back on the road, ride to Jaedenar (40,57). in Jaedenar clear the way westwards until the green pool you already went to before to fill up the vial. Enter Shadow Hold (35,58). At this point if you can find people to group it will be much easier. Dousing the Flames of Protection is doable solo (but kinda hard), on the other hand there's an escort quest which is almost impossible solo, at least for most classes. It also depends on how crowded the area is, if there's lots of people farming in the shadow hold already, it's doable solo. Clear your way down the first tunnel, in the first room you'll find a captured elve named Arko'narin. This is the NPC that gives the escort quest, but to get it you first need to find a Blood Red Key from one of the mobs inside Shadow Hold, click it and get the quest [55] A Stranged Red Key. You have to turn this quest at Captured Arko'narin later. The follow up will be the escort quest. 5. In the same room you can find the 1st and 2nd brazier (the 2nd one is on the slope going to the next tunnel), click them to turn them off. 6. If you are in a group (at least a duo of lvl 55 people), and get a Blood Red Key (the whole group can loot it if it drops), tell everyone to turn in the first quest at the captured elf. When everyone has turned in the first quest [55] A Stranged Red Key, one person should start the follow up, which is the escort quest. Note: You have to click on the elf through the cage. Some people try to click the cage itself, but that doesn't work. 7. Escort Arko'Narin to her equipment, then escort her out, things can get rough at times because she engages 2 or 3 lvl 55 mobs a the same time and is fragile until she has her equipment on. In the same room where her equipment is you'll find the 3rd and 4th Brazier, turn them off too. At the exit a 53 Elite mob will attack you. Defeat it and then Arko'narin will leave and you'll get the quest complete message. If you don't find anyone to group with, just don't do the escort quest, clear your way inside the Shadow Hold and turn off the 4 brazier. 8. Once done with that, get back on the main road and follow it until Irontree Woods (45,23). Kill Irontree Stompers and Wanderers until one drops an Irontree Heart. Get back on the road follow it until Talonbranch Glade, sell and repair then go to Timbermaw Hold. In Timbermaw go to the winterspring exit. Right outside of Timbermaw Hold get the quest [58] Winterfall Activity from Salfa. 9. Ride south to Donova Snowden, turn in [55] The New Springs, get the follow up [56] Strange Sources. Also get the other quest [56] Threat of the Winterfall. From now on, throughout winterspring look for big white/blue feathers on the floor named "Moontouched Feather", you need 10 of these. 10. Ride east to Timbermaw Post (39,44). Kill 8 Winterfall Pathfinder, Den Watcher and Totemic there. If you find a Winterfall Ritual Totem, don't click it to get the quest unless you are neutral with the Timbermaws already (you need neutral to be able to turn in this quest in Timbermaw Hold) Keep killing these Furlbogs until you also get a Empty Firewater Flask, click it and get the quest [56] Winterfall Firewater. 11. Get back on the road and ride east until a crossroad (53,34). Go north to Starfall Village (51,30). Turn in the quest [56] To Winterspring! and get the follow up. Talk to Jaron Stoneshaper, turn in the quest [56] The Ruins of Kel'Theril and get the follow up [56] Troubled Spirits of Kel Theril. Also get [59] Enraged Wildkin. Get back on the road, go south to the crossroads, when you are there go southeast this time until everlook. End of circuit Felwood --> Everlook: Note: I had XP Bonus during 90% of that one. So that's about 35000 XP / Hour. 12. In Everlook get [56] Are We There, Yeti? from Umi Rumplsnicker. In the Inn, get the quests: [52] Duke Nicholas Zverenhoff [52] The Everlook Report [55] Sister Pamela You can put in bank "The Everlook Report" and "Studies in Spirit Speaking". I'll say when to get them back from the bank later in the chapter. Sell and repair, resupply food and drink (4 stacks), get the flight path (it's on the eastern side of Everlook.) 13. Go west to the Lake of Kel'Theril. Look around for blue runes amidst the floor named "Highborne Relic Fragment". Watch out before you pick any of them though, be full health/mana, because 2 lvl 55 spawn and attack you each time you click one. You can either kill them or run away. o o o o The 1st Relic fragment is at (55,43) The 3rd is just west of it at (53,43) The 4th one is directly north of the 3rd at (52,41) The 2nd one is west of the 4th one at (51,41) 14. Ride west back to Donova Snowden (31,44) and get as much Moontouched Feather as possible on the way. Turn in [56] Threat of the Winterfall and [56] Winterfall Firewater, get the follow up [56] Falling to Corruption. Ride north, back to Timbermaw Hold, go through it to Felwood. As soon as you exit in Felwood, jump down west in Felpaw Village. Clear yourself a path to the camp which is on the upper level of Felpaw Village, northwest of the green pool. 15. Clear the camp (which might be hard, so use everything you got if needed) and you should find a "Deadwood Cauldron" (60,5). Click it, turn in the quest and get the follow up [56] Mystery Goo. 16. Go back to Winterspring through Timbermaw Hold. Go back to Donova Snowden, turn in [56] Mystery Goo and get the follow up [56] Toxic Horrors. Now if you haven't gathered your 10 Moontouched Feathers yet, go do it, then Hearhstone to Darnassus. In Darnassus go to the Temple of the Moon and fill up Eridan's Vial in the pool. Go to the bank and put the 4 relic fragments there, as we won't be needing them for a while. You can destroy Jaron's Pick too. 17. Go out of Darnassus to Rut'theran Village and turn in [55] Moontouched Wildkin. Get the follow up [57] Find Ranshalla. You should be 56 by now, so go get your new skills. If you aren't 56 yet it's not a problem, we'll be back in town in a few. Level 56 1. Fly to Auberdine and then to Astranaar. Ride to Felwood. Start of XP Circuit Felwood --> Everlook #2 Inside Felwood just on the right side of the road you'll find Arathandris Silversky (54,86). Turn in the Salve quests you completed there (if you don't have any gathering skill, you will only have Salve via Hunting completed). These quests are repeatable but only the first turn ins give XP. On the other hand you get Cenarion Plant Salves which you can use to cleanse corrupted plants in Felwood and get buffs or consumables from them. Check this guide for more details. 2. Ride further north to Emerald Scantuary. Turn in the quests [55] Dousing the Flames of Protection and [55] Rescue From Jaedenar if you managed to finish that one. Get the two follow ups: [58] A Final Blow [57] Retribution of the Light Also turn in [54] Silver Heart and [54] Felbound Ancients at Eridan Bluewind. Get the follow up [54] Aquementas. Also get the follow up [54] Purified!, turn it in, you'll get the "Flue of the Ancients" as reward. 3. Go back to Jaedenar into the Shadow Hold. Clear inside the hold further than when you doused the last 2 flames, past the red pool. Just a bit further down a slope you should find a room with an altar in it's middle, 4 warlocks/darkweavers arouned it, channeling a ritual, and Rakaiah infront. You can pull Rakaiah solo, the 4 warlocks will be aggro on you but won't attack as long as you don't directly attack them. After you got rid of Rakaiah, you will still be locked in combat mode because of the 4 warlocks, to lose combat mode you just have to run back some distance away from them until they forget you. Basically they never attack you unless you directly attack them. However the warlock's imp pets will attack you and you should dispose of them. 4. Kill the 2 other mobs on each side of the room and the one in the back, then you can kill each of the 4 warlocks one by one. When the room is clear, click on the Remains of Trey Lightforge on the altar, choose your reward and complete the quest [57] Retribution of the Light, get the follow up |57] The Remains of Trey Lightshadow. 5. Go past the Altar Room and down a spiral, after a couple of pulls you'll be facing a small bridge going up straight ahead and a slope going down to your left. Go left and keep going in that direction until you reach a big room where you'll find Shadow Lord Fel'dan and his two succubus guards. It wasn't an easy fight to solo, I basically used everything I had with the mage and rogue. I sheeped Shadow Lord Fel'dan and killed the two succubus fast. Same with rogue, I sapped the shadow lord and killed it last. With the warrior I used retaliation. Don't forget to loot the head of the Shadow Lord. This part of the dungeon is just much easier with a group, you can try it solo but I recommend at least finding a person to duo it with. 6. Clear your way out of the Shadow Hold and out of Jaedenar, get back on the road and ride north until Irontree Woods. Go to the crater at (49,27), you'll find plenty of Toxic Horrors there, kill them until you got 3 Toxic Horror Droplet. There's more Toxic Horrors all around the big green pool just north of the crater. 7. In Irontree woods go to the ruins at (49,30) and click the Flute of the Ancients from your inventory. some treant spirits will appear, especially one huge treant named Arei. If he's not there, it means someone else is already escorting him. Go kill some treants and elementals while waiting. Get his quest [56] Ancient Spirit and escort Arei. He will do a full turn around the green pool, so I suggest you clear the toxic horrors around the crater before you start the escort. Let him be infront and get hit first or he won't assist. The good thing is that he is quite a tank so you can let him tank a bit when there is multiple mobs. He will get back on the road after having done a full circle around the pool, 3 irontrees will ambush him at this point. Kill them fast one by one while Arei tanks the others. You will get a quest complete message normally. 8. Ride back to Emerald Sanctuary, turn in the quests [58] A Final Blow and [57] The Remains of Trey Lightforge. Ride to Ashenvale. When in Ashenvale follow the road south and then east towards Azshara, make a stop at Forest song which is just east of Satyrnaar. Turn in [56] Ancient Spirit at Kayneth Stillwind (85,44). Get back on the road and ride east to Azshara, go to Talrendis Point and fly to Talonbranch Glade. Sell and repair. Go to Winterspring through Timbermaw Hold. 9. Ride south to Donova Snowden, turn in [56] Toxic Horrors and get the follow up [57] Winterfall Runners. Time to find those runners! Check the map below to see which path they follow, they are on the road from Timbermaw entrance to the crossroads, then they go around the mountain by the north and to Winterfall Village. When you find the 3 Winterfall runners (lvl 57), you don't have to kill all 3. Just kill one fast and run away, come back and loot the crate. They all drop it. Go to Everlook, resupply food/drink up to 4 stacks, sell and repair. End of Circuit Felwood --> Everlook #2: 10. Start of Circuit Everlook --> Darnassus Go east of Everlook to Winterfall Village (66,33), kill 8 Winterfall Shamans and 8 Winterfall Ursa there. Once that is done, go south over the mountain to Ice Thistle Hills (65,41). Kill Ice Thistle Yetis there until you have 10 Thick Yeti Fur. 11. Ride south along the road. At (62,60) you'll find a small trail going west, just a bit further you'll find a camp named "Dun Mandarr" (59,59). Kill the owlbeasts in it so that you can access the "Damaged Crate" in the camp. Click on the Damaged Crate, turn in the quest and get the follow up. Go east and you'll find a wagon with a keg atop at (61,60) just west of the road. Jaron's Supplies are at the wagon, they are small crates half burried in the snow, loot one of them. Then get back on the road and ride south, go over the ice bridge and keep going south until you discover Darkwhisper Gorge and get the complete message for [56] Strange Sources. 12. Go back north, past the wagon and you'll find Ranshalla, she is on the east side of the road at (63,59) in front of the entrance to Owl Wing Thicket. If she's not there, someone is probably doing the escort quest already, so go kill some owlbeasts while waiting for her to return. When you find her, turn in the quest [57] Find Ranshalla and get the follow up [59] Guardians of the Altar. Escort her to the cave, inside the cave she'll start to cast a spell, while she does, click on the stave infront of her named "Fire of Elune" and it will be lit. You can drink/eat while she is channeling her spell, you don't have to light the torch immediately. Always let her in front and get the first hit. Escort her inside the 5 caves and light the 5 torches. Then she will go to the altar of elune, which you will have to click too. Then a beautiful scene will happen and you will have the quest complete message at the end of it. While escorting her you should have normally looted the Blue-Feathered Amulet you need for the other quest. If you didn't, keep killing these owlbeasts until one drops. 13. Go north back to Everlook, turn in [56] Are We There, Yeti? and get the follow up. Sell, repair and resupply food/drink. Go east/southeast of Everlook back to Ice Thistle Hills, this time enter the cave further to the east up the hills (68,42) and kill Ice Thistle Matriachs/Patriachs until you get 2 Pristine Yeti Horn. Go back to Everlook, turn in [58] Are We There, Yeti? and get the follow up. Find a goblin named Legacki, she stands to the left of the Inn. Target her and right click Umi's Mechanical Yeti from your inventory. 14. Ride west/northwest to Starfall Village and turn in [59] Enraged Wildkin. Go west to Donova Snowden, turn in the quest [56] Strange Sources and [57] Winterfall Runners and get away from the pool. 3 Winterfall Ambushers will spawn shortly after you turn in the quest, but if you are away enough they won't aggro you. Don't get the follow up. 15. Go north to the Timbermaw Hold entrance and turn in [58] Winterfall Activity at Salfa. Hearthstone to Darnassus, go out to Rut'theran village and turn in [59] Guardians of the Altar and get the follow up [57] Wildkin of Elune. Go back inside Darnassus to Arch Druid Staghelm at the Cenarion Enclave and turn in the quest. End of circuit Everlook --> Darnassus: Note: No XP bonus at all. 16. Visit the AH, resupply food/drink (4 stacks). You can put your cenarion beacon and any Corrupted Soul Shard or Cenarion Plant Slave at the bank, if you still have any. We are not going back to Felwood so they are just taking bagspace for nothing now. Same for the Flute of the Ancients, put it in the bank, I don't dare destroying it because who knows, might need it one day for another quest, even though I doubt it. You should also be level 57 or very close now. Level 57 1. Fly to Tanaris. in Gadgetzan, find a goblin named Sprinkle (she's close to the horde exit). Scare her away with the mechanical yeti. If you didn't turn in [53] The God Hakkar yet, go east to Steamwheedle Port and turn it in. 2. Go to Lost Rigger Cove (68,41), inside lost rigger cove go south to the other side of the pirate camp and then west until you find a stone circle (70,49). Open the blue bag named "Eridan's Supplies", loot everything from it. Then step inside the circle and click the Book of Aquor. Aquementas, a lvl 54 elemental, will come to the circle and attack you. You don't have to kill it, just have to stand in the stone circle and let him attack you once. If you want to kill it, just know that he is immune to frost and deals frost damage (mages use Frost Ward). He should be a cakewalk at level 57. You should now have the Silver Totem of Aquementas. If you do, you can destroy the "Book of Aquor", the "Silver Claws" and the "Irontree Heart". 3. Ride to Un'Goro Crater, when in Un'goro, gather 3 Bloodpetal Sprouts while heading to marshall's refuge. You get these sprouts by clicking on Bloodpetal Sprouts (green cabbage-looking plants scattered everywhere in Un'goro) At Marshall's refuge turn in [52] Haze of Evil, and then turn in the follow up immediatly (thanks to the 3 Bloodpetal sprouts you just gathered on the way). 4. Go inside the crystal cave and talk to J.D. Collie, turn in [54] Aquementas and get the follow up [54] Linken's Adventure. Go to Linken and turn it in, don't get the follow up unless you got a few people to help you. Get at least a healer and a tank type. Blazerunner is a lvl 56 Elite fire elemental and he hits for 400. So just save this quest for when you are level 60 and have time to spend on that quest, the rewards aren't that great, we did it for XP. Anyway here is how to defeat Blazerunner, the last boss of the long quest chain "Linken's Adventure". Go to the top of fire plume ridge, clear all the elementals around to make sure they don't add during the fight. Equip the Silver Totem of Aquementas and put it on a hotkey. Click it to dispel Blazerunner's aura right at the start and everytime it reappears. Blazerunner is somewhat invincible when his aura is on, he keeps knockbacking people and every damage he takes is divided by 10. So be sure to always keep that aura dispelled. Another thing, fight him inside his cave with your back facing the walls, so if he knockbacks you when the aura appears again you won't end up being tossed off the mountain or into adds. He's a tough fight, I did it with a level 57 Priest, a level 55 Paladin and me (lvl 57 rogue) and it wasn't easy. On the other hand I soloed it with my lvl 57 frost mage, thanks to kiting, it took time and several attempts though. So I recommend saving that quest for when you are level 60 and have time to spend on it, unless you got enough people to help you immediately. Anyway if you do manage to kill Blazerunner, you must also go loot the Ornate Chest in his cave. Then turn in the quest at Linken. 5. Before you leave Marshal's Refuge, find a goblin named Quixxil and scare him with the mechanical yeti. Hearthstone to Darnassus, get out of it and fly to Auberdine, take the boat to Menethil Harbor, fly to Ironforge. In Ironforge, sell/repair, resupply food and drink (4 stacks), check the AH. Go to the throne room and take the quest [54] The Smoldering Ruins of Thaurissan from Royal Historian Archesonus, then talk to her again and go through her dialogue. Turn in the quest and get the follow up. Go to the bank and get your Black Dragonflight Molt from it (if you don't have it on you already, that is). 6. Fly to Stormwind, make Stormwind your home location, then fly to Lakeshire, Redridge Mountains. In Redridge follow the road north to Burning Steppes. Go through Blackrock Pass and then east to Morgan's Vigil, it's a narrow path going up the mountain with torches on each side (83,63). o Get the flight path. o o o Get the quests [52] Extinguish the Firegut and [56] FIFTY! YEP! from Oralius. Get [54] Dragonkin Menace (Elite) from Helendis Riverhorn. Don't get the other quests. 7. Start of XP Circuit Burning Steppes. Ride northwest to Flame Crest (63,30), get [52] Broodling Essence from Tinkee Steamboil and [50] Tablet of the Seven from Maxwort Uberglint. From now on try to find a partner or more to do the quest [54] Dragonkin Menace (Elite), some of the dragons will most likely be too hard for you to solo, so ask for help (Hunters, Warlocks and frost mages will probably be able to solo them though). If you don't find help immediatly for it, proceed with the next steps of the guide while actively looking for people to help you with the dragons. When you find someone, go to the paragraph called "Dragonkin Menace". 8. Go south to the Ruins of Thaurissan and kill mobs there while looking around for "Thaurissan Relics". They are grey stones looking like this: 9.

You'll receive a Tablet Transcript. 10. Once you have 12 Tablet Transcripts, go west to the Blackrock Stronghold (44,35). Kill Orcs there unil you have 50 Blackrock Medaillons. If the place is too crowded (it often is), go south to the area named "The Pillar of Ash", there's more Blackrock Orcs there. 11. Go east to Dreadmaul Rock (73,48). Kill what's on the kill list of [52] Extinguish the Firegut. You can find these ogres all around Dreadmaul Rock, I recommend fighting on the eastern side though so you avoid dragonkin adds. At this point if you still haven't found someone to help you, grind on Orcs at the Blackrock Stronghold or PIllar of Ash. Ask your guild for help or your friends, but get someone to help you for [54] Dragonkin Menace. 12. Dragonkin Menace When you find a partner to duo the dragonkins with, go to the area which is north of Dreadmaul Rock (78,28), you should find Black Broodlings there. Search your inventory for Draco-Incarcinatrix 900 and put it on a hotkey. Use it on every Black Broodling before killing them. When they die while having the incarcinatrix aura on, a crystal will appear at their corpse named "Broodling Essence". You need 8 of these. Make a semi circle around the eastern side of Dreadmaul Rock, that's where you'll find the dragonkins you need. Complete the kill list of [54] Dragonkin Menace while getting the 8 Broodling Essence as well. Before you leave this area go to the northeastern edge of it, you'll find a cave with Cyrus Therepentous in it.

You'll find a "Soft Dire Mound" right behind some altar (81,46). Right click it to plant the Gor'tesh head. Then go south, back to Morgan's Vigil, turn in [53] Ogre Head on a Stick = Party. End of Burning steppes circuit Note: I got delayed a lot because someone was doing the onyxia key quest where a bunch of elite dragons attack Highlord Bolvar, had to wait quite a while for Lady Katrana Prestor to reappear. Still decent. 18. Hearthstone to Stormwind, or fly there if your stone isn't up. Sell and repair, check the AH, resupply food and drink (4 stacks) get the following quest item from your bank: "Everlook Report" You can put your Alterred Black Dragonflight Molt in bank as well, you'll just have to get it back before going to BRD.

Turn in [52] The Everlook Report from Aregent Officer Pureheart, also complete the quest Argent Dawn Commission, you will receive a trinket. When you kill undeads while having this trinket equiped, you can collect Scourgestones from their bodies. I suggest equiping it from now on everytime you kill undeads in eastern and western plaguelands. Turning in these Scourgestones at Argent Officer Pureheart gets you faction increases with the Argent Dawn and a token. These tokens are the only way to raise your faction with the Argent Dawn at a certain point in reverred, so save them until then. Check blizzard's official homepage to see what rewards you get at the different faction levels. Don't get the other quests. 20. Take the eastern road, to Sorrow hill (46,81).

Go to the Fourth Watch Tower (46,70). Clear what's in your way but be careful not to aggro the skeletal warlord inside of it (lvl 56-57 elite).

Get out of the barn and look around for a Wandering Skeleton, there is only one of this kind and he roams around the barn, so keep killing stuff around the barn until you find it, kill it and loot "Dalson Outhouse Key". Go behind the barn, you'll find an Outhouse (48,49). Open it, kill Farmer Dalson, loot Dalson Cabinet Key. 26. Go to the other house now (47,50), on the 2nd floor of it you'll find a "Locked Cabinet", click it and turn in the quest. Go straight north to the Northridge Lumbermill, when you are next to the lumbermill, go northeast of it, follow a trail going down to a destroyed wagon.

You can find the Scarlets Knights and Mages you need to kill for the quest just southeast of Kirsta, on the road to Hearthglen.

Search the graveyard just north of the house where Marlene Redpath is, look for "Joseph Redpath's Monument" among the graves (49,76). Click the grave and get Joesph's Wedding Ring. 14. Go back towards Chillwind Camp and take the other path to Andorhal, go inside the Ruins of Andorhal by the western entrance. Just a bit inside Andorhal go to the house to the north, it's the only house around with a floor and not totally destroyed (39,68). Inside the house go to the 2nd floor, in one of the rooms you'll find Chromie. Turn in [b][56] A Strange historian[/b], get the follow up [56] The Annals of Darrowshire. Also ge the other quest [56] A Matter of Time. 15. Go to the northern gate of Andorhal, and east of the first watch tower you'll find two wooden silos (45,62) which look like this: Get full hp/mana, get next to one of them and click your Temporal Displacer (looks like a horn). 1 to 3 lvl 57 worms will spawn and attack you. When it's 3 it might be tough to handle solo, so always start those fights with full hp and if possible potions / long cooldown abilities up. Back off from the silos after you summon the worms, if you stay too close more worms will spawn sometimes, and that's probably more than you can handle solo. The worms only appear when the silo is sparkling blue. They take a while to sparkle again after you use the temporal displacer next to them. There's 3 more silos just a bit more to the east. Keep doing that until you have 15 Temporal Parasites slain. 16. Go back to Chromie, turn in [56] A Matter of Time and get the follow up [56] Counting Out time. Now what you have to do is go from destroyed house to destroyed house in Andorhal and look for Small Lockboxes like this: Loot the Andorhal Watch from it. Keep doing this until you have 5 Andorhal Watches. 17. Go to the town hall (with a tower clock) which is in the middle of Andorhal, close to where Araj the Summoner is, you can sneak in the town hall without having to fight any of the bunch of mobs close to it. Inside the town hall you'll find several "Musty Tome" lying on the floor. When you click one, there is a chance you will find the Annals of Darrowshire, but there is a higher chance that you will get a "Ruined Tome" and 1 or 2 level 57 mobs will attack you. They give no loot and no exp. Hoewever there is a trick to know which tome is the right one. There is a slight graphical difference. The pages of the fake tomes have two-tone colored pages, lightbrown and white, like this one: The good tome looks "newer", and it's pages only have one color tone, like this one: You can easily see the difference if you zoom in 1st person view and put your mouse pointer over the books to highlight them. Loot the Annals of Darrowshire. 18. Go back to Chromie, turn in [56] Counting Out Time. The Attuned Dampener you get as a reward is only useable on Araj the Summoner, so save it for later when you are 60 and do the big quests. Killing Araj is necessary to get your Scholomance key and another quest for a decent trinket. You'll need a solid group of 60s to kill him, but the Attuned Dampener will help. You can actually repeat the quest [56] Counting out Time to get more dampeners for an easier Araj kill. Turn in [56] The Annals of Darrowshire, get the follow up [56] Brother Carlin. Now you should also have finished [57] Skeletal Fragments, if you haven't, kill some more skeletons while you are in Andorhal. 19. Get out of Andorhal by the north gate, then go east till Thondroril River and ride north to Tirion Fordring (7,43). Turn in [56] Demon Dogs, [56] Blood Tinged Skies and [56] Carion Grubbage. Get the follow up [56] Redemption. Listen to Tirion's tale, turn in the quest and get the follow up [57] Of Forgotten Memories. 20. Ride to Eastern Plaguelands and go southeast to the Undercroft, which is directly south of the Marris Stead. Behind the crypt in the Undercroft you'll find Tiron Fordring's Grave (28,86). Next to should be a "Loose Dirt Mound". This is where you need help, this almost impossible to do solo unless you use a lot of creativy and everything you got. Anyway here is what happens when you click the dirt mount, Mercutio Filthgorger and 3 Dwarf Graverobbers spawn and go to the dirt mound, if you are close they of course jump you. They all hit hard, especially Mercutio, and all have a lot of hit points for non elites. Here is what I suggest: As soon as you click the dirt mount, run to the other side of the fence, you can jump over it if you walk up the mountain a bit. The 4 dwarves will walk to the grave and stand there. You have two ways to do this now: 1. Polymorph Mercutio (if you have a mage with you) and kill the 3 gravediggers. Then bandage up and kill Mercutio, loot his hammer. 2. Ignore the 3 adds and go all out on Mercurio, loot the hammer and run. Use creativity with the classes you have! Ex: With my rogue I got help from a warrior. He charged Mercutio and used intimidating shout as soon as possible to send the 3 gravediggers away for 10 sec or so. We both went all out on Mercutio, looted and ran away. Anyway, if you don't get help immediatly, there's something to do in the Undercroft while you look for help: Go inside the crypt (27,85), clear the way down, kill Zaeldarr the Outcast and loot his head. In the same room look for a "Torn Scroll" on the floor, click it can get the quest [60] Hameya's Plea. If you still didn't get anyone to help you on [57] Of Forgotten Memories, grind on the trolls in the Undercroft while waiting for someone to help you. It just takes 10 min! Call a guildmate or something. :) 21. Go back to Tiron Fordring, turn in [56] Of Forgotten Memories, get the follow up [58] Of Lost Honor. Get back into Eastern Plaguelands and ride east to Light's hope Chapel. Turn in [56] Brother Carlin, get the follow up [57] Villains of Darrowshire and [56] Heroes of Darrowshire. Turn in [55] Zaeldarr the Outcast further to the south at Caretaker Alen. Sell junk and resupply food and drink there. (4 stacks). 22. Ride west to the Infectis scar by passing Corin's crossing by the south side. Go down the Infectis Scar at (49,74), then go to (53,65) where you'll find the "Shattered Sword of Marduk", as marked on the map. It looks like this: Loot it. Get out of the Infectis scar by the way you came in. 23. Go north to Blackwood Lake (49,51). Take a dive, in the middle of the pool at the bottom you'll see Ghosts of Darrowshire fighting each other, amongst them you should see a glowing violet skull named "Horgus Skull" (51,50), it looks like this: Loot it. Go north and slightly to the east to Northpass Tower (55,24). Turn in [56] Troubled Spirits of Kel'Theril at Aurora Skycaller inside the tower, don't get the follow up. You should be level 59 by now. Level 59 1. Go west to the Plaguewoods. In the plaguewoods look around for Large Termite Mounds and loot them. Kill stuff inside plaguewood while looking for those termite mounds, but also try to find as much Cannibal Ghouls as possible. Anytime you kill one of these, a Spirit of Darrowshire will appear, right click it to free it. You need to free 15 Darrowshire Spirits. The Cannibal Ghouls are not so numerous though, so it will take a while, consider this as a mini grinding session, plus you are getting faction with the Argent Dawn and Scourgestones. 2. When you are done with both [55] A Plague Upon Thee and [57] Defenders of Darrowshire, go east to Zul'Mashar (64,24). Clear the way up the slope, and to the east, you'll soon face a big pyramid. At it's base you should see tombs with some trolls roaming about them. One of them is Infiltrator Hameya. Clear some of the trolls until you get a clear pull on Hameya, pull him solo and kill him, then loot his key. 3. Clear your way out of Zul'Mashar then go southeast to Northdale, take a dive in the pool which is just south of Northdale. Clear the elementals in the way. At (71,33), next to a cage you should see a white flag with a blue runed on it named "Symbol of Lost Honor": Loot it. Ride southeast back to Light's Hope Chapel. Turn in [55] Defenders of Darrowshire and [57] Villains of Darrowshire. Get the quest [56] Heros of Darrowshire. We won't be doing it in the guide, however it's one of the cool quest lines to do at level 60. 4. Ride west and slightly south to the Undercroft. Right behind the crypt in the Undercroft you should find a "Mound of Dirt". Not the one next to Tiron's grave, the other one close to a charriot (28,86). Click it, turn in [60] Hameya's Plea. Ride northwest back to Tirion Fordring, turn in [58] Of Lost Honor and get the follow up [58] Of Love and Family. Go south and then west back into the Western Plaguelands. 5. Go south and swim to Caer Darrow isle, On the western side of Caer Darrow, find Artist Renfray in a wooden house (65,75). Turn in [58] Of Love and Family and get the follow up [60] Of Love and Family. This quest will be taking you to Stratholme so it's something we won't do in the guide. However it is a great quest, yet another 'must do" at level 60. Swim west until you reach Sorrow Hill, then ride west to Chillwind Camp. Turn in [57] Skeletal Fragments, get the follow up [57] Mold Rhymes With... This is for your Scholomance Key quest, and clearly yet another "must do" at level 60. Don't forget to take the quest [60] Alas, Andorhal from Commander Ashlam Valorfist when you go kill Araj for your Scholomance Key quest - killing two birds with one stone. Turn in [55] A Plague Upon Thee, take the follow up [55] A Plague Upon Thee. 6. Ride north around Andorhal and then northeast to Northridge Lumber Camp. Go straight to the lumber mill which is at the northeastern tip of the lumber camp. Inside the lumber mill you should find a big crate named "Northridge Lumber Mill Crate". Click it and place the Termite Barrel on it. A barrel with green smoke should appear, click it and get the follow up. Go back to Chillwind Camp, turn in [55] A Plague Upon Thee. End of circuit Plaguelands #3 7. Hearthstone to Ironforge. Resupply food/drink (4 stacks). Sell and repair, visit the Auction House: this is your last chance to buy your dungeon set 1 bracers, we are gonna need them now. Go to the throne room, get the quest get quest [60] An Earnest Proposition from Deliana. Also get [59] Kharan Mighthammer from King Magni Bronzebeard while you are here. Go to Auberdine, fly to Everlook, Winterspring. (or ask a mage to teleport you to Darnassus, then fly to auberdine --> everlook). In Everlook, turn in [58] Are We There, Yeti? at Umi Rumplesnicker. Turn in [54] Felnok Steelspring, get the follow up [54] Chillwind Horns. 8. Ride straight north until you are in the area east of Frostsaber Rock on the map. You will find Chillwind Ravagers and Edler Shardtooths in this area. Kill every of them until you have 8 Uncracked Chillwind Horns. Once you got 8 Uncracked Horns, go west, closer to Frostsaber Rock, you will find a lot of tigers there. Kill them until you got 15 "Winterspring Blood Sample". This will take a while, but it's normal, this is your new armor set quest (For Dungeon Set 2). 9. When done, ride back to Everlook, turn in [54] Chillwind Horns, get the follow up [54] Return to Tinkee. Hearthstone to Ironforge, go to the throne room, turn in [60] An Earnest Proposition at Deliana and get your Dungeon Set 1 bracers updated! 3 Spectral stalkers (non elite) will spawn and attack Deliana, help her to kill them. Get the follow up [60] A Supernatural Device. This is the next step for your armor quest, but we won't be doing it in this guide, that's yet another thing for you to do at level 60! 10. You should be approximately 2/3 done in your level 59 by now. It's time for you to go to Blackrock Depths! Gather all the quests, follow this guide. Don't forget to take your Altered Black Dragonflight Molt with you, and also go turn in [54] Return to Tinkee in the Burning Steppes at Flame Crest. Doing Blackrock Depths and all the quests should easily ding you 60, and some of these quests are important for your level 60 life: o [60] Attunement to the Core: which allows you to enter the Molten Core (a high level 40-man raid instance) by a teleport window. o [54] Marshall Windsor, which is actually the Onyxia Key quest line. However, if after Blackrok Depths and all it's quest XP rewards you are still level 59, here is one last bonus XP circuit (And remember, after patch 1.10 you will be able to cash in quests for gold - means epic mount sooner ): 11. Take two thorium bars with you (buy them at the AH or something). Sell and repair, resupply food/drink (4 stacks). Go to Gadgetzan, turn in [57] Mold Rhymes With... get the follow up [57] Fire Plume Forged. Ride to Un'Goro Crater, right after entering it from the slope, go northwest to Fire Plume Ridge, climb to the top of it. Go next to the lava pool and right click your Skeleton Key Mold from your inventory. 12. Get off the mountain by the west side, ride northwest to the slope leading to Silithus (29,22). In Silithus, ride west to Cenarion Hold (51,37). Get [55] Securing the Supply Lines from Windcaller Proudhorn. [55] Deadly Desert Venom, from Beetix Fickelspragg on the 1st Floor of the Inn. [58] The Twilight Mystery from Geologist Larksbane [60] Secret Communication from Bor Wildmane 13. Get out of Cenarion Hold by the west side, keep going west a little bit, you'll quickly encounter Scorpids, Spiders and Worms. Kill all of them on sight. Kill the Twilight mobs at the Twillight Base Camp (41,42). There is a lot of scorpids, spiders and worms in the area north of the twilight camp. Keep kiling around this camp until you complete [b][60] Secret Communication[/b], [55] Deadly Desert Venom and [55] Securing the Supply lines. It's gonna take a while. But anyway this is good because you are working on our cenarion faction (which is very good at level 60 for many reasons, check Blizzard's homepage here for rewards etc.) and you get Glowing Scorpid Blood, which can be traded for tickets at the Darkmoon Faire. (or sell for nice cash if you aren't interested in the Darkmoon faire rewards). While killing Twilight mobs, you will sometimes find Twilight Cultist Robe, Mantle and Cowl. Keep them, you will need them later on for level 60 faction quests with cenarion. Things to be careful with: Don't touch the greater wind stones or you'll get nuked by it. These stones are to be used while wearing the full twilight cultist set and only when doing specific quests. Don't bother with them for now. Avoid Twilight Keeper Havunth, he hurts a lot and doesn't drop anything particular. The Scorpids you need to kill are the grey/green ones, named Stonelash Scorpids, NOT the golden ones. Kill Twilight mobs until you finish [60] Secret Communication. 14. You should finish the quest [55] Securing the Supply Line before the others, go turn it in as soon as it's complete (along with the Secret Communication Quest). Get the follow up [57] Stepping Up Security, then go back to finish the other 2. When you are done with them, go northwest, kill every Dredge Crusher you see on the way. Keep going northwest until you are in the northwestern most corner of Silithus named "The Crystal Vale" (20,1 . Look around for "Twilight Tablet Fragments", they look like this: As soon as you have 8 tablets, go southeast towards Cenarion Hold, kill every Dredge Crusher on the way so that you finish [57] Stepping Up Security. 15. Go back to Cenarion Hold, turn in all the quests, hearthstone to Ironforge, fly to Chillwind Camp, turn in [57] Fire Plume Forged, get the follow up Araj's Scarab (that's for your Scholomance key). That should for sure make you ding level 60! LEVEL 60 -- End of chapter III! Chapter 4 - [Level 60 - 65] Journey from Hellfire Peninsula to Terrokar Introduction This guide is optimized for FAST leveling with a minimum of grinding sessions. Quests are important, they give rewards and faction and are less boring than pure grinding, BUT some quests are really a waste of time and we will skip those and replace them by good grinding spots when it is necessary. Some people say that grinding is always faster than questing, this is true in theory when you don't know which quests to take, which to avoid, and in which order to do them. With this guide, questing will be very efficient and much better than pure grinding. Follow each instruction carefully and you will see for yourself. The quest choices and order to do them are optimal so that you run as few as possible while doing the most possible, turning several quests at the same time. One of the aims of my guide is to reach level 70 while having Shadowmoon Valley and Netherstorm quests untouched. Why you ask? Because at level 70 you will want money, a lot of money, to finance your very fast flying mount, and quests you do at level 70 give a very nice amount of gold. When I leveled my own characters I made more than 3000 gold at level 70 just from doing all the quests I hadn't done. This is why I will sometimes recommend doing an instance or a bit of grinding, it might be a little annoying for some of you, but trust me, it will pay off in the end when you can buy your very fast mount. Everything described in this guide can be done solo (beside when I say otherwise). You can, of course, follow this guide while duoing, grouping, it's not a problem, it works too. DISCLAIMER: This guide does NOT take into account tradeskills, class specific quests or PvP. It's 100% focused on getting the most experience possible in the shortest possible time while doing a lot of quests and enjoying as much content as possible. Any race/class combination can do this guide. Any complaints about PvP, tradeskills, or class specific issues will be ignored. Basic rules o o o Spend your talent points so you do the most damage possible. (e.g: Priest should specialize in Shadow Talents, Warriors in Arms/Fury, Rogues Combat/Assassination, etc). Don't waste your time trying to find groups for questing, you can solo everything that is described in this guide unless I say otherwise. Only group with someone when it's not gonna be a waste of time (e.g: meeting the person at the other end of the map to show him the way to where your quest is, that is a waste of time) Try to always log out in an Inn or in one of the major cities when you take a break. o o o If I don't mention a quest, it means I consider it a waste of time, so don't take it thinking I forgot a quest here and there, I didn't. Also don't abandon a quest unless I say you should. Sometimes I will be making lists of quests you should have before starting with an area, that doesn't mean I will list the whole quest log, JUST the quests that interest us for the moment. When I say you should bind somewhere (make an Inn your home location), it's for a good reason, and it will save you much time. Don't change your home location unless I say so. Useful Addons Here is a list of addons which I use. You will mainly need an addon to display coordinates because I use them to describe locations in my guide (x,y). The one I use is FuBarLocation, which requires you to install FuBar and Ace 2. Below I listed the files you must download and install, they can all be found on this page: http://files.wowace.com/ o o o o o FuBar - A basic panel in which you can add a lot of different addons with many useful features. I use it mostly for coordinates and XP rates. FuBar LocationFu - This addon will make your coordinates appear on your FuBar panel. Fubar ExperienceFu - This will tell you how much XP/hour you are getting (optional) Ace 2 - You need this for the above mentioned addons to work. Cartographer - Enables coordinates on your map as well, which will make it easier for you to travel with coordinates. It also removes the fog on unexplored areas of the map, which helps a lot if you are unfamiliar with the zones. Side Note: In case you don't know how to install add-ons, make a folder called Interface in your World of Warcraft directory (if it doesn't exist already). Then you open it and create a folder called Addons inside the Interface folder (if it doesn't exist already). Now every Addon you want to install goes directly into the Addon folder. For example you download and unzip FuBar, you drag the folder called FuBar (not Interface or Addons) into the new Addon folder you created. You restart World of Warcraft completely and it should be working. If it isn't you might need to log out to your login screen and click on "Addons" in the left lower corner. Tick the box that says "Load out of date Addons". Relaunch WoW. Shopping List: Bags: Having a lot of bag space is really important. We will go for long xp circuits far from any vendor. You should try to get 18-slot bags, which can be bought from the AH for about 40g. If you can't afford it, then at least get 16-slot bags, they go for 7g at the AH. Color Code: o o o o o o Quests Items Locations Quest objectives to kill NPCs Locs The Guide: I assume that you haven't done any quests in the Outlands before level 60. If you have it's not a big deal, you will probably have to do some grinding here and there to catch up with the recommended level of the guide. LEVEL 60 Let's get started! First thing, go to a main city and buy a portal to Shattrath. You generally get one quickly if you type the following line in general chat: "WTB Port to Shattrath, paying 1 Gold and will come to you". The reason we do this is that you'll have the flight path to Shattrath, which is quite handy when you need to go to a main city to train new skills (For those who have never been to Shattrath before, there are 3 free portals you can use anytime you want to go to Ironforge, Stormwind or Darnassus.) After you arrive in Shattrath, go through the northeastern gate and find the flight master (63,41), fly to Honor Hold. Go to the inn and make it your home location. Once that is done, take a flight to Hellfire Peninsula, the Dark Portal. Zone through the Dark Portal, you should be in the Blasted Lands now. Go down the stairs and get the quest [61] Through the Dark Portal from Watch Commander Relthorne. Go back through the Dark Portal, go down the stairs, turn in the quest at Commander Duron and get the follow up [61]Arrival in Outland. Go directly south and you'll find Amish Wildhammer, turn in the quest and get the follow up. Once again, go back through the dark portal and ride all the way north to Nethergarde Keep in Blasted Lands. Go to the big building with the mailbox infront of it - the one which is on the northern part of the village. Inside the keep turn left and left again, and you should find an NPC called Bernie Heisten, buy a Nethergarde Bitter from him. We'll need it in a quest later on, so make sure you don't drink it. Use your Hearthstone back to Honor Hold. Find Marshal Isildor, easy to spot on the minimap thanks to the yellow "?". Turn in the quest and get the follow up [60]Force Commander Danath. Go south and enter the biggest building, find Commander Danath in there, he is on the 2nd floor. Turn in the quest and get the two follow ups: [61]The Legion Reborn and [61]Know your Enemy. 1. Mount up, exit the village by the west gate and go to the destroyed tower down the path. Get the quest [61]Waste Not, Want Not from Dumphry infront of the tower, then go inside the tower, turn in the quest and get the follow up [61]Fel Orc Scavengers. 2. Go directly northeast of the tower and you should quickly find some Bonechewer orcs overlooking the big canyon called the "Path of Glory". Go eastwards while staying on top of the cliff and kill as many orcs as needed. At the same time look for metal cogs and wooden planks on the ground, until you complete both quests. 3. When you are done with [58]Fel Orc Scavengers and [61]Waste Not, Want not, ride southwest back to the guard tower and turn in both quests, get both follow ups: [58]Ill Omens and [61]Laying Waste to the Unwanted. 4. Mount up, ride through Honor Hold and this time exit by the east gate, ride to the destroyed tower on the right-hand side of the road. You'll find Sergeant Altumus there, turn in the quest and get the follow up [61]The Path of Anguish. 5. Ride east and slightly northeast and you'll find a bunch of imps and infernals at (65, 58 ). Kill them and also find and kill and Dreadcaller, which you should find in the same area. 6. When you are done with [61]The Path of Anguish, ride north and cross the "Path of Glory", and then follow the cliff overlooking it, going westwards (that's the "horde side" of the Path of Glory). Get off your mount when you encounter the first fel orc and clear the way going west, while staying on top of the cliff. You should soon see a big orcish catapult (58,47), go next to it and right-click the Flaming Torch from your inventory. This should set the catapult on fire and you should get a quest update. The next 3 catapults are further west along the path of glory, grind your way through the orcs, find the 3 other catapults and burn them. 7. Once you have completed [61] Laying Waste to the Unwanted, ride west and through a great wall, then follow the trail and keep going west until you reach a fork (29,46) where you should see a smaller trail going northwest. Follow it and you should find the Temple of Telhamat (23,41). Get the quests: [62]Deadly Predators [62]In Search of Sedai [63]Curel Taskmasters [63]The Rock Flayer Matriarch. All those quests are given near the entrance of the Telhamat. Further up and to the left you can buy the manuals to raise your first aid past (300) if you want to. The NPC selling them is called Burko. Go to the main building (which is also the Inn) and get [62]The Pools of Aggonar from Amaan the Wise. Exit the building and go east, you should find the gryphon master, get the new flight path. 8. Right behind the gryphon master, if you look down the cliff you should see Sedai's Corpse in the distance, it's easy to spot because it's surrounded by a white glow. Get down the cliff and go to the corpse, turn in the quest and get the follow up [62]Return to Obadei. 9. Mount up and ride back to Telhamat, turn in [62]Return to Obadei. Makuru - one of the NPCs next to Obadei - should have a quest for you now, get the quest [63]Makuru's Vengeance. 10. Go to the gryphon master again and fly to Honor Hold. 1. Exit by the east gate, go to the guard tower down the path and turn in [58]The Path of Anguish and get the follow up [61]Expedition Point. 2. Ride back through Honor Hold and this time exit by the west gate and go turn in [61]Laying Waste to the Unwanted at the guard tower. 3. Ride southwest to the area called Zeppelin Crash (49,75). Get the quests [61]Ravager Egg Roundup and [61]In Case of Emergency. 4. Ride southwest until you get back on the trail and follow it until you reach an area called Razorthorn Trail (42,83). Start killing all ravagers you see while looking for Ravager Eggs on the ground. 5. Once you have 12 eggs, ride back to the Zeppelin crash and turn in [61]Ravager Egg Roundup, get the follow up [61]Hellboar, the Other White Meat. ==Note== From now on, whenever you find Helboars on your way, kill them. They sometimes will drop Tainted Helboar Meat, which you must try to purify with the Purification Mixture in your inventory. This quest can take a while so that's why we start it now. 6. Ride east and stay north of the area called "Expedition Armory". On your path you should see Zeppelin Debris, gather them. You should soon reach small canyon called the "Valley of Bones" (57,73). Follow this valley while gathering Zeppelin Debris and killing anything in your path. Follow this mini canyon eastwards until you reach the other end, you should have about 20 Zeppelin Debris by then, and if you look south you should see the orc fortress of Zeth'Gor. 7. Go there and kill orcs until you find a Cursed Talisman, it can drop from any Bleeding Hollow orc. 8. Once you have the talisman, ride east to Expedition Point (71,63). Turn in [58]Ill Omens and get the follow up [58]Cursed Talismans. You can also sell junk and repair at the NPC right next to you. Turn in [61]Epxedition Point and get the follow up [62]Disrupt Their Reinforcements. Also get [61]Zeth'Gor Must Burn. 9. Go south back to Zeth'Gor, but not to the main entrances. Our aim is to destroy the towers, and we're gonna start by the ones on the east side of the fortress. Clear the way south to the tower which stands against the mountain (71,71). Kill all orcs around it, then go under the tower and use your "Smoke Beacon", it looks like a barrel in your inventory. You should get the following message "Foothill Tower Marked". The next tower is just down the hill, northwest. Mark it as well. Exit Zeth'Gor by the same way you come from. Now go to the next tower, which stands infront of Zeth'Gor on the north side of it (68,67). Mark it. Reminder: Keep killing helboars you see and pick up any Zeppelin Debris you walk across. The last tower is a bit more difficult to reach, as it stands in the very middle of Zeth'Gor. Go through the western gate (66,74) and clear yourself a way south towards the last tower and mark it. Now you should have all 4 towers marked. All that's left for you to do is kill more orcs until you have 12 Cursed Talismans. It's best to kill the orcs outside of Zeth'Gor, so that you can gather Zeppelin Debris and kill Helboars too. 10. Once you have 12 Cursed Talismans and 30 Zeppelin Debris, ride east back to Expedition Point. Turn in [58]Cursed Talismans and get the follow up [60]Warlord of the Bleeding Hollow. Turn in [60]Zeth'Gor Must Burn! 11. Go back to Zeth'Gor, clear the path towards the main building, which is east of the Southern Tower (the last one we marked). Warning: there are a lot of patrols in this area, so clear carefully. Right in the center of the building you should find Warlord Morkh standing alone. Kill him and loot his armor then clear the way out. 12. Go back to Expedition Point. Turn in [60]Warlord of the Bleeding Hollow and get the follow up [61]Return to Honor Hold. Sell junk and repair. 13. Go straight north and enter the area named the Legion Front (71,60). Start killing all the demons you see, until you have 4 Demonic Rune Stones. Once you have them, go to Portal Kaalez (72,60). It's a dark metalic structure with green crystals floating above it. It's directly east when entering the Legion Front. If you get close to the portal your mouse pointer should turn into a cog when you point inside the portal. Stand inside the portal right-click it to disrupt it. Now move to Portal Grimh, it is about 200 yards to the north. Gather another 4 Demonic Rune Stones and disrupt this portal. If you have any Demonic Rune Stone left in your inventory, destroy it. 14. Go back to Expedition Camp, turn in [62]Disrupt their Reinforcements and get the follow up [62]Mission: The Murketh and Shaadraz Gateways. Look in your inventory for Seaforium PU-36 Explosive Nether Modulator and put it on one of your action bars, I suggest that you bind a hotkey to it, because you will have to aim those bombs with your mouse pointer, so you don't really have time to click on the bomb, a quick keystroke is much faster. Once you're ready, talk to Wing Commander Dabir'ee, he will send you on a bombing mission. You simply have to use the bomb (with the hotkey you bound it to) and aim with your mouse pointer for the demonic portals on each side of the main road with your bombs when your gryphon flies close to them. 15. Once you sucessfully complete the bombing mission, turn it in and get the follow up [60]Shatter Point. Talk to Wing Commander Dabir'ee and ask him to send you to Shatter Point. After landing, right-click on the Gryphon Master to get the flight path and then turn in the quest [60]Shatter Point, get the follow up [60]Wing Commander Gryphongar. Go inside the tower on the island and turn in the quest, get the follow up [62]Mission: The Abyssal Shelf. Find the bombs in your inventory - they are called Area 52 Specials - and put them on the same hotkey you used in the previous bombing mission. Go talk to Gryphoneer Windbellow - she stands right behind the gryphon master - and ask her to send you to the Abyssal Shelf. You can complete this bombing mission in several runs, so it's not a problem if you don't manage to kill everything required on the first run. 1. Once you've completed the bombing mission, go turn in the quest at Wing Commander Gryphongar. Get the follow up [61]Go to the Front. Go back to Gryphoner Windbellow and ask her to send you to Honor Point (69,28 ). After landing, go turn in the quest [61]Go to the Front and get the follow up [61]Disruption Forge Camp: Mageddon. 2. Directly west of you stands Forge Camp Mageddon. Go there and kill 10 Gan'arg Servant and Razorsaw. You can't miss him, he's quite big and roams all over the camp. If you attack the servants which stand next to the Fel Canons, I advise killing the canon first, because it deals more damage and has less HPs than the servant. 3. Once you're done, go back to Honor Point, turn in [61]Disruption - Forge Camp: Mageddon and get the follow up [61]Enemy of my Enemy... 4. Go back to Forge Camp Mageddon and kill 3 Fel Canon MK1, then go back to Honor Point, turn in the quest and get the follow up [61]Invasion Point: Annihilator. 5. Ride far west towards Invasion Point: Annihilator (54,28 ). Unmount when you encounter the first demons infront of the camp and clear the way while staying close to the northern cliff. On the northern part of the camp, standing infront of demonic furnace structure, you should see Warbringer Arix'Amal, clear the mobs around him and then kill him. Loot the Burning Legion Gate Key and the Burning Legion Missive from him. Now clear the mobs around the Burning Legion Gate to the teleporter, it's the structure with a green crystal floating above, just like the ones we destroyed in a previous quest. Step inside the teleporter, right cilck the Burning Legion Gate Key from your inventory and leftclick on the round stone floating inside of the gate. Then right click on the stone itself to close the gate. You should now have completed the quest [61]Invasion Point: Annihilator. 6. Clear the way out of the camp, then ride back to Honor Point. Turn in [61]Invasion Point: Annihilator. Right-click the Burning Legion Missive in your inventory and accept the quest [58]The Dark Missive. 7. Hearthstone back to Honor Hold. In the Inn, get the following quests: [61]An Old Gift and [62]The Longbeards. You can buy food and drink from the Innkeeper if you are low. Go upstairs and turn in [61]Return to Honor Hold and get the follow ups: [61]Fel Spirits and [61]Digging For Prayer Beads. ==Note== You should now be friendly with Honor Hold. In the next room buy a Silken Thread from Hama the Grand Master Tailor. Get out of the Inn, go right to the big tower and buy a Maiden's Anguish from the Reagent Vendor inside the tower (it's at the last page of his wares). Get out of the tower and down the slope, keep going straight and around the memorial stone, you should see an NPC with a quest for you: Warrant Officer Tracy Proudwell, get the quest [60]Hellfire Fortifications from her. Now talk to her and click on the dialog line about her dog Fei Fei, then click on "A treat, etc..". Then speak to her again and select "I have marks to redeem" and buy a Fei Fei Doggy Treat. Talk to her dog Fei Fei and turn in the treat and then follow Fei Fei. Keep following him until he brings you to Fei Fei's Cache, right-click it and you should get the Prayer Beads. Go sell junk and repair at the Grand Master Blacksmith, he's in the forge building, directly infront of the Inn. Go to the barracks building. On the 2nd floor get [62]Weaken the Ramparts from Lieutenant Chadwick. ==Note== From now on, if you see any group looking for more to do the Hellfire Ramparts instance, feel free to join them. Getting a group for an instance at lower levels isn't an easy task, so you might want to start trying early. However, if you don't like instancing, don't bother, you can replace that with a bit of grinding. 8. Exit Honor Hold through he west gate, go to the guard tower and get the quest [61]Unyielding Souls. Just a few steps south you should see a mine with a few NPCs infront, get the quests [61]A Job for an Intelligent Man and [61]When this Mine's a-rockin' from Foreman Biggums. 9. Go directly southwest of the mine, there you should find boars and giant earthworms (called Marauding Crust Bursters -- to get the to show up you have to get close to those piles of moving stones). Focus mainly on the worms, kill boars if they get in the way though and don't forget to purify the boar meat. Stay in this area until the following two objectives are complete: 1. [61]A Job for an Intelligent Man completed. 2. Find an Eroded Leather Case, it drops from the worms. It has approximately a 10% chance to drop so it might take a while. Once you have the Eroded Leather Case, right-click it and accept the quest [61]Missing Missive. 10. Ride southwest to Gor'Gaz Outpost (46,74). Get in pull range of the orcs (as close as you can without them jumping you) and use the Anchorite Relic in your inventory. Start to kill orcs while staying close to the relic. Each orc you kill next to the relic will spawn a Fel Spirit. You must kill 10 of those spirits. 11. Ride southeast to Expedition Armory (55,76). Kill everything needed to complete [61]Unyielding Souls. Also, it is time to get level 61 now, so we are gonna stay here and grind. This is an awesome grinding place, the mobs don't have much hit point, they respawn fast and all drop runecloth or netherweave cloth. However, if you don't like grinding, you can run a couple of Hellfire Ramparts instances instead, you'll get honor hold reputation and possible some nice rewards. LEVEL 61 If you wish to go train your new skills or to visit the AH. The quickest way is to simply fly to Shattrath and use one of the 3 main city portals. Once you are done, hearthstone back to Honor Hold. Go to the 2nd floor of the Inn and turn in [61]Fel Spirits and [61]Digging for Prayer Beads. Get the follow up [61]The Exorcism of Colonel Jules. Find the Ritual Prayer Beads in your inventory and put them on your action bars. You'll have to click it during the fight to kill the enemies that will appear. Once you are full HP/Mana and fully buffed, talk to Anchorite Barada, who will begin the exorcism ritual. After about 20 seconds, things will start to spawn in the room, some flying skulls (called "Darkness Released") and some Roting Sludges on the floor. They aren't easy to target so just use your tab key to get them quickly. You can use conventionnal attacks if there's just one at a time (they have 1000 HP), but whenever you start to be overwhelmed, click your prayer beads, which will kill every single monster in the room. There is a 15 second cooldown on the prayer beads. All you have to do is kill all the enemies that spawn for about 2 minutes without letting Barada die. It is quite an easy task thanks to the prayer beads. When the ritual is over, go and talk to Colonel Jules and you should get the quest complete message. Turn in the quest at Assistant Klatu and get the follow up [61]Trollbane is Looking For you. Now exit the Inn, go to the main keep and turn in [61]The Dark Missive at Warp-Scryer Kriv (2nd Floor), get the follow up [61]The Heart of Darkness. Also get [61]The Path of Glory. Turn in [61]Trollbane is Looking for You and get the follow up [62+]Drill the Drillmaster. Get the quest [63+]Overlord as well. Also, since you're now friendly with Honor Hold, you might want to go check the Quartermaster for possible upgrades. 1. Exit Honor Hold through the west gate, go to the guard tower and turn in [61]Unyielding Souls, get the follow up [61]Looking to the Leadership. 2. Go south to the mine, turn in [61]A Job for an Intelligent Man. Now go inside the mine and kill 12 Gan'arg Sappers. When you're done, get out of the mine, turn in the quest and get the follow up [61]The Mastermind. Get back into the mine and this time clear to the bottom of it and find Z'Kral. Kill him and get out of the mine. Turn in the quest. 3. Ride northeast to the entrance of the Path of Glory (63,49). From this point on, you must look for skeletal remains on the ground, it is called "Trampled Skeleton". You can find plenty of them at the entrance to the path of glory, and they respawn quite quickly (about 30 seconds). You just need to right-click them. 4. Once you've cleansed 8 skeletons, ride back to Honor Hold. Go to the main keep and turn in [61]The Path of Glory (2nd Floor) and get the follow up [63]The Temple of Telhamat. 5. Take a gryphon ride to the Temple of Telhamat. Go to the Inn, turn in [63]The Temple of Telhamat, get the quest [61]Helping the Cenarion Post and [63]An Ambitious Plan. 6. Ride south until you hit the road, then follow that road west until you find Cenarion Post (16,51). Turn in [61]Missing Missive and [61]Helping the Cenarion Post. Get the follow up [63]Demonic Contamination. Also get all the other quests: [63]Keep Thornfang hill Clear [63]Colossal Menace [62]The Cenarion Expedition Reminder: Keep killing boars on your way if you haven't finished [61]Helboar, the Other White Meat. For the other boar quest [63]Demonic Contamination, only Hulking Boars can drop the Blood Samples, so make sure you kill those on sight. 7. Go southeast until you find Dustquill Ravine (24,65). Clear yourself a path through the ravine going south, staying close to the mountain to the west. At some point you should see a yellow "?" on your minimap saying Gremni Longbeard (24,72). Go there, turn in the quest [62]The Longbeards, get the follow up [63]The Arakkoa Threat and the other quest [63]Rampaging Ravagers. Now go to the other dwarf and get his quest, which you can turn in instantly if you followed the guide correctly until now, and get the follow up [62]The Finest Down. 8. Just southeast of the dwarves is the entrance to the Den of Haal'esh (26,71). Kill every bird and birdman you find on your way. Go down the slope and stay on the main path until you see a little rocky path lit by torches on the left side. Take this path and go up, then cross the wooden bridge and turn left. You should soon find a big birdman named Avruu. Try to pull him solo and interrupt his Dark Mending spell if possible, then loot his orb. Right-click Avruu's Orb and accept the quest [63]Avruu's Orb. 9. Go back down the main path and this time go southeast instead of taking the rocky path, you will soon enter Haal'eshi Gorge (26,78 ). Keep going southeast and you should soon see a yellow "?" on your minimap, called "Aeranas". Go there and get full HP/mana before you click the orb. An elemental will attack you, you have to beat him down to 15% or so. Then turn in the quest [63]Avruu's orb. Now start clearing your way back to the dwarven camp and complete [63]The Arakkoa Threat and [62]The Finest Down on the way. Just clear the way out, don't try to run out because those birdmen can really sprint like hell. Tip: if you click on the Kaliri nests, a bird spawns and they can also drop Kaliri Feathers. 10. When you are done, go back to the dwarves and turn in both quests. 11. Now go slightly northwest and kill 10 Quillfang Ravagers. When you are done, go back to Grumni Longbeard and turn in [63]Rampaging Ravagers. 12. Go northeast and enter The Great Fissure (27,70). Start to ask in general channel if anyone is interested in doing the quest [63+]The Rock Flayer Matriarch, she is in the cave in the same area. In the meantime, kill Stonescythe Whelps and Alphas while heading towards the cave (34,63). 13. Anyway, once you are done with killing whelps and alphas, you can try to go and solo Blacktalon the Savage if you haven't found a partner yet. Pretty much all ranged classes can kite it to death, just make sure you clear the way before you engage it. If you can't solo it and can't find a partner, just abandon the quest, you can come back here at level 70 and do it solo for some extra gold. 14. Mount up, ride east and get out of the great fissure. You should be right next to the PvP objective called "Broken Hill". If you feel like it, you can do the pvp quest now, all you have to do is stand inside the objectives until they become controlled by the alliance (this can't work if it's already controlled by the Alliance, so you might have to come back later). This quest only gives 5000 experience, but it gives reputation and marks which you can use as currency to buy some rewards at the honor hold quartermaster. And a little bit of PvP is a nice break from questing/grinding. However this is optional, so it's your choice! I personally did that quest on my rogue while looking for a healer who wanted to team up to do [63]Drilling the Drillmaster (explained below). 15. Now let's get back to business. There's one elite quest we can try to get out of the way right now, most kiting classes can solo it, but it's difficult. So what you can do is look for other players who want to do [62+]Drill the Drillmaster. Melee classes will definitely want to bring a healer along. You can go to the next paragraph and proceed with the guide while you look for other players. If you got a group (or if you wanna try soloing it), here is the fastest way to kill Drillmaster Zurok. Go to Hellfire Citadel's bridge, coming from the south, and if you look down to your left you should see Drillmaster Zurok down there, as well as other orcs. Here is where you must jump down at (49,55): When down there, kill all the orcs around the Drillmaster and behind you to have a lot of space. Once there's only the Drillmaster Zurok left, kill him. He hits for 500 on clothies, has a lot of HP and has two special abilities: 1. Knockback -- that's why we clear the area, or else he'd toss you into some adds and it'd get ugly very quick. 2. Whirlwind -- it hurts a lot but all you have to do is back off when he does it, so no problem. Once he's dead you just have to clear the way out and get out of the path of glory. If you really can't find help to do this quest, you can abandon it and come back at level 70. It's not a big deal. 16. So, let's do some solo quests while you look for help for [63+]Drill the Drillmaster. If you still haven't completed [61]Helboar, the Other White Meat make a stop at the area just southwest of Honor Hold (50,69) and kill all the boars there. 17. Ride to Zeppelin Crash (49,75), turn in [61]Helboar, the Other White Meat, get the follow up [61]Smooth as Butter. Turn in [61]In Case of Emergency and get the follow up [61]Voidwalkers Gone Wild. 18. Go further south to the Warp Fields (46,82), there you should see a Warp Portal with Voidwalkers around it. Find an "Uncontrolled Voidwalker", take it down to 15% HP or lower, then click the Sanctified Crystal in your inventory. A red crystal will appear, click it and you should receive a Glowing Sanctified Crystal. Now keep on killing voidwalkers (any type) in the area until you have completed [61]Voidwalkers Gone Wild. 19. Go east to Expedition Armory, clear the way towards the southern area of the armory, you will find Lieutenant Comamnder Thalvos standing in the southern most house in rubbles (55,84). Kill him. About 50 yards northwest of this spot you should find Arch Mage Xintor (54,81) standing on flat ground next to some wooden practice dummies. Kill him too. Go south and behind the armory, you should see a destroyed house in the distance, go there. Infront of the house you should see a white book called Mysteries of the Light (55,87). Loot it. 20. Go northeast to the Valley of Bones (56,73) and kill buzzards until you have 12 Plump Buzzard Wings. 21. When done, ride west/southwest to Zeppelin Crash, turn in [61]Voidwalkers Gone Wild and [61]Smooth as Butter. 22. Hearthstone back to Honor Hold. Turn in the following quests (some of them were optional and you can come back at level 70 to do them): [61]An Old Gift [60]Hellfire Fortifications (Optional) [62]Drill the Drillmaster (optional) [61]Looking to the Leadership (in the west tower) Sell junk and repair. Fly to the Temple of Telhamat. Turn in: [63]An Ambitious Plan [62]Deadly Predators [63]The Rock Flayer Matriarch (Optional) 1. Exit Telhamat and go northeast - while killing Hulking Boars - and enter the path going through the mountain (28,36) then keep going northeast until you encounter some Mag'har Orcs. Time to rampage through the Mag'har Grounds until you have 10 Mag'har Ancestral Beads. They can only drop from Grunts and Debilitated Grunts. 2. When you're done with that, go back down the mountain, and then ride east and then north, to the Pools of Aggonar (38,44). Before you kill anything, start to ask in the general channel if someone wants to do [63+]Overlord. The mob you have to kill to complete this elite quest is in the same area, so look for a group to kill it while you do the other two quest. I recommend having a tank, a healer and some DPS class or killing Arazzius the Cruel will be a pain. Anyway, once you got a group together, go to the next paragraph and read infos about Arazzius. In the meantime, kill Oozes and Terrorfiends until you complete both quests [61]The Heart of Darkness and [62]The Pools of Aggonar. The terrorfiends cast fel flames and it kinda hurts, so interrupt it or move away from it. 3. [63+]Overlord: This quest is not mandatory, but completing it early is very nice because the reward is worth it and will help you through leveling up to 70. If you really can't find people to help you, it's not a big deal, you can always come back later and try again. Anyway, Arazzius the Cruel is at the end of the canyon in the Pools of Aggonar. He is guarded by two mistresses of doom, make sure you pull both before you engage Arazzius himself. Arazzius casts Pyroblast, Shadow Bolt Volleys and Inferno. You must absolutely interrupt inferno, or he will summon Infernals and things will get hectic. You can just heal through Pyroblast and Shadowbolt Volleys. However if you got plenty of classes with interrupts in your group, you might as well interrupt all his spells. But just make sure Inferno is kicked, pummeled or shield bashed, counterspelled or even earth shocked. 4. Once you've completed the two quests mentioned above, get back on the road and ride to Telhamat. If you still haven't found a group for [63+]Overlord, keep looking, we are going back to the Pools of Aggonar very soon anyway. In Telhamat turn in [63]Makuru's Vengeance, a dialog will start between two NPCs, then a new quest will be available: [63]Atonement. Get this quest. Go up to the temple and turn in [62]The Pools of Aggonar and [63]Atonement, get the follows ups [63]Sha'naar Relics and [62]Cleansing the Waters. 5. Get out of Telhamat and go northeast, kill the boars there -if you still need them- then ride east to the Pools of Aggonar. 6. Clear yourself a path to the northernmost part of the Pools of Aggonar, where you should see what appears to be the skeleton of a giant demon dog (39,30). Once you have made some space around this skeleton, stand exactly as shown in the screenshot below and use the Cleansing Vial from your inventory. A level 63 demon called Aggonis should spawn, he is easy to kill solo but he casts fear, this is why we cleared the area around. 7. Once he is dead, get back on the road, go east through the great wall, and then northeast until you find Foreman Razelcraz (51,31). Get his quest [61]Outland Sucks!. 8. Go to the valley southwest and look for Shredder Spare Parts (look for wooden crates on the ground). 9. Go back to Foreman Razelcraz, turn in [61]Outland Sucks! and get the follow up [61]How to Serve Goblins. 10. Ride southwest towards the great wall, stop at the orc camp on the nothern side of the road. Locate Manni's Cage (45,41), clear the way to him and free him. 11. Now go to the orc camp south of here, just on the other side of the road (warning: sometimes a fel reaver passes by). Locate Moh's Cage (46,45) and free him. Just a bit south of this cage you should find the last one, Jakk's cage (47,46). Free him. 12. Go back to Foreman Razelcraz. Turn in [61]How to Serve Goblins, get the follow up [61]Shizz Work. 13. Click the Felhound Whistle from your inventory while standing next to Foreman Razelcraz. Razelcraz This should summon a Fel Guard Hound who will follow you around. Go kill the Helboars west off here. Each time you kill a boar, your Fel Hound will eat them and then leave some Felhound Poo behind him. Right Right-click click the poo, if you are lucky you will find the Shredder Key, if not, keep killing boars until your Fel Hound produces the right type of po poo 14. Go back to Foreman Razelcraz Razelcraz, turn in the quest and get the follow up [61]Beneath Thrallmar. from Foreman Razelcraz,, find and kill Urga'zz at 15. Now enter the mine just a few steps away fr the bottom of the mine. 16. Go back to Foreman and turn in [61]Beneath Thrallmar. 17. Hearthstone back to Honor Hold Hold.. Go to the main keep and turn in the quests: [61]The Heart of Darkness [63+]Overlord Congratulations on your new trinket! You should also be level 62 now or pretty close. If you aren't, don't worry about it, you will catch up later. LEVEL 62 Go sell, repair and restock food/drinks. Fly to Telhamat. Go to the Inn and turn in the quest [62]Cleansing the Waters. 1. Get out of Telhamat. If you haven't finished [63]Demonic Contamination yet, go northeast of Telhamat and kill boars there until you are done with this quest. 2. Ride southwest to Cenarion Post (16,52). Turn in [63]Demonic Contamination, get the follow up [63]Testing the Antidote. Find a hulking boar, there are plenty around the camp and east of it. Get the boar to low health (under 50%HP is enough) and then click the Cenarion Antidote - some red flask - from your inventory. The boar will grow and be renamed to Dreadtusk. Finish it and you should get a quest complete message. Go back to Cenarion Post and turn in the quest [63]Testing the Antidote. 3. Go southwest to the Ruins of Sha'naar (14,55). Kill Taskmasters - just ignore the Dreghood Brutes, they will stop attacking once you kill the taskmaster linked to them - and look for Sha'naar Relics. Avoid Azreth the Merciless, he roams up and down the path in the middle of the ruins. In one of the houses to the left you should find Akoru the Firecaller (15,59), get his quest [62]Naladu. 4. To find Naladu, first you have to wait for Arzeth the Merciless to take a walk away from the stairs. Then move up those stairs and go left, you should find Naladu in a small hut at the end of this path (16,65). Turn in the quest [62]Naladu and get the follow up [62]A Traitor Among Us. Once again wait for Azreth the Merciless to be away from the stairs and then go to the main hut infront of the stairs. Inside the hut you should find a Metal Coffer, open it and receive the Sha'Nar Key. Return to Naladu, turn in the quest [62]A Traitor Among Us and get the follow up [62]The Dreghood Elders. Wait for Azreth to walk away from the stairs, then go down and turn left, in the first hut to the left you should find Morod the Windstirrer, talk to him and free him. About 50 yards directly north of the hut you should find Aylaan the Waterwaker, free him too. Go east to the hut where we found the first quest giver ealier, Akoru the Firecaller. Free him. Go back to Nadalu and turn in the quest, get the follow up [62]Arzeth's Demise. Now time to payback that big demon for all the time he made us wait down those stairs! Get close enough to Azreth to use your Staff of the Dreghood Elders, this will turn Azreth into a non-elite monster, easy to solo. Note: He will still be immune to movement impairing effects like Frostbolt, so don't try to kite him, just take the beating and kill him before he kills you. Go back to Naladu and turn in [62]Arzeth's Demise. You should also be done with [63]Sha'Naar Relics and [63]Cruel Taskmasters by now. If not, make sure to complete them before leaving the Ruins of Sha'naar. 5. Get out of the ruins. Go northwest to Thornfang hill (12,50) and start to kill Ravagers and Venomspitters. At the same time, ask in the general channel if someone wants to team up to do [63+]Colossal Menace. The giants you need to kill for this quest are a few steps north of thornfang hill, but are too hard to solo for most classes. Keep killing Ravagers until you find help to do [63+]Colossal Menace. This quest is really worth it, you will get nearly 20000XP from it. 6. Go north of Thornfang Hill and start to kill giants. The first colossus you kill will drop a Crimson Crystal Shard, right-click it to get the quest [63]Crimson Crystal Clue. The colossus splits into 3 smaller colossi when you damage them, I recommend killing the small ones as soon as they spawn. They do almost as much damage as the big one but have much less hit points. 7. Once you have completed both [63]Keep Thornfang Hill Clear! and [63+]Colossus Menace, go back to Cenarion Post and turn in: [63]Colossal Menace [63]Crimson Crystal Clue, get the follow up [63+]The Earthbinder. Turn in, [63]Keep Thornfang Hill Clear!. Now turn in right away [63+]The Earthbinder. After turning it in, Earthbinder Galandria Nightbreeze will move off the earth mound and plant a seed. Shortly after, an elite colossus will spawn, it is easily soloable if you let Earthbinder Galandria tank for you, just let her get sufficient aggro before you start to attack. After the colossus is dead she will have another quest for you [63+]Natural Remedies. You may choose to do this quest or not, it is optional. It gives 13550 XP and some decent rewards, but it is harder than the previous one because you have to go in the middle of the colossus fields this time, clear a lot of space around the big red crystal and then use your Seed of Revitalization on it. A big colossus will spawn and you'll have to kill it, he does knockback (that's why we clear the area around him). Most classes can't solo this, so you'll have to find a partner to do it. If you can't be bothered with that, just don't take this quest and save it for level 70. 8. Ride back to the Temple of Telhamat, turn in [63]Cruel Taskmasters. Go to the Inn, turn in [63]Sha'naar Relics and get the follow up: [63]The Seer's Relic. Go to the Gryphon Master, and jump off the cliff behind him. 9. Go east to Sedai's Corpse. Stand next to the corpse and click on the Seer's Relic in your inventory. A scene will take place, watch it and after a moment you will get a quest complete message. Go back to the Inn in Telhamat and turn in [63]The Seer's Relic. You are pretty much done with Hellfire Penninsula now, besides the instanced parts. You are level 62 and now is the perfect time to do the Hellfire Ramparts instance if you haven't done it already, it is actually nice XP with a decent group and you can pick up some gear upgrades on the way. If you don't want, or can't do the instance, I suggest to go grind about 75000XP at one of the following locations, depending on your preferences: o o The Expedition Armory, few HPs, drop cash + runecloth/netherweave cloth. Immune to bleed though. Legion Front (71,60), few HPs, drop cash + cloth o The Dead Mire, in Zangarmarsh (81,40). My personal favorite because they give rep with Sporregar and drop Unidentified Plant Parts for Cenarion Rep. However, if you want more cash, pick one of the above two instead. You can also go to a main city and train your new skill(s) and re-stock consumables. Fly to the Temple of Telhamat, ride southwest to Thornfang Hill (10,50) and clear the way to Zangarmarsh. 1. Shortly after entering Zangarmarsh you should find Cenarion Refuge. Get the following quests: [62]The Umbrafen Tribe [63]Plants of Zangarmarsh From the wanted poster on the first house to the left: [64]Leader of the Darkcrest [63]Leader of the Bloodscale Go to the Inn, get [62]The Dying Balance, then go to the innkeeper and make this inn your home. Turn in [62]The Cenarion Expedition and get [63]Disturbance at Umbrafen Lake and [64]Warden Hamoot. Go to the other building, move to the top of it and turn [64]Warden Hamoot, get the follow up [64]A Warm Welcome. 2. Mount up, follow the road north and turn west at the first fork. Follow the path until you find Telredor. There is a platform with a lift taking you up the tower (70,49). Get all the quests you can find in Telredor: [64]The Orebor Harborage [62]The Boha'mu Ruins [62]The Fate of Tuurem [62]The Dead Mire [62]Unfinished Business [62]Fulgor Spores [62]Too Many Mouths to Feed [62]Menacing Marshfangs Get the flight path. Go back down and start looking for Fulgor Spores - they can picked up off the floor nearby Telredor. They look like this: Just make a full circle around the tower while looking for those spores, you should find 2 or 3 at least. Also look in the ponds surrounding the tower. 3. Then start moving east, kill every Marshfang Ripper you can find on your way. If you keep going east you will reach a wooden path at some point, follow it north until you enter The Dead Mire (81,49). TIP: If you kill a spore bat while being in melee range the moment it dies, you will get a 5 minute buff: +30 to all stats. So just kill spore bats whenever they are on your way and get this nifty buff. 4. You can find the Dead Mire Soil southeast of the pond which is in the middle of the mire. The exact loc is (84,43) and the soil looks like this. Stay in this area and kill Withered Giants until one of them drops a Withered Basidium. Rightclick it to start the quest [62]Withered Basidium. 5. Go southwest until you are at (77,45). You should find a named sporebat called Sporewing in this area. Kill Sporewing. 6. Keep going southwest while killing Marshfang Rippers on your way, you should now have killed 10 of them. 7. Go back to Telredor and look for Fulgore spores around the tower again. It doesn't matter if you finish that quest yet, we will have more opportunities to look for Fulgore Spores. Go up the tower and turn in: [62]Unfinished Business, get the follow up [62]Blacksting's Bane. [62]The Dead Mire, get the follow up [62]An Unnatural Drought [62]Menacing Marshfangs, get the follow up [62]Umbrafen Eel Filets. [62]Withered Basidium, get the follow up [62]Withered Flesh. ==Note== Don't sell Fertile Spores if you found any. They drop from the following mobs: Sporebats, Greater Sporebats, Fen Striders, Marsh Walkers. So kill those mobs on sight, you will need 10 Fertile Spores for a quest later on. 8. Get off the tower and go back to the Dead Mire. Kill everything in the area until you have completed the following objectives: Complete [62]An Unnatural Drought Complete [62]Withered Flesh Gather 20 Unidentified Plant Parts (they can drop from most monsters in Zangarmarsh). Gather 6 Bog Lord Tendrils ==Note== Be careful not to sell them! Keep them for later, they are needed to get reputation with Sporeggar. 9. Ride back to Telredor and gather the last Fulgor Spores you might still be missing. Go up the tower and turn in the following quests: [62]Fulgor Spores [62]Withered Flesh [62]An Unnatural Drought 1. Ride southeast until you reach the northern tip of Umbrafen Lake (72,60). Start killing Mire Hydras while going south along the western bank of the lake. You don't have to go in the water to find them, they are all pretty close to the shore, sometimes they are underwater and can't be seen, but you can target them easily using your tab key, and pull them out with a ranged ability. Also kill nagas who get in your way. 2. Keep going south until you reach the steam pump at (71,79). You should get a quest update message for the [63]Disturbance at Umbrafen Lake quest. Keep going around the lake until you have killed 10 Mire Hydras. 3. Once you are done with that, use the Potion of Water Breathing which you should have in your inventory, dive in the lake and hunt Umbrafen Eels until you have 8 Eel Filet. Arm yourself with patience, this may take a while. 4. When you're done with the eel hunting, exit Lake Umbrafen on the east side and go southeast to the spot marked on the map (82,74). You should find Boglash, a named bog strider, he roams up and down the shallow waters in this area. He is elite but can be soloed by pretty much any class, even with average gear. Make sure your long cooldown abilities and potion timers are ready and it should be ok. He is immune to fear and movement impairing effects, however he can be interrupted and stunned. Tip: Get the spore buff from one of the spore bats, it helps. 5. Go south to Umbrafen Village (83,80). Kill every Broken in the village, then move south to the next village, clear it too. 6. Move further southeast to the main village. Clear it and enter the main building (85,90). On the top floor you should find Kataru, kill him. Now go kill what you still need to complete [62]The Umbrafen Tribe. 7. When you are done, move to the middle village (83,85), and you should find Kayra Longmane in one of the huts. If she's not there it means someone else is currently doing the escort quest, so just kill stuff in the area while waiting for her to come back. When you're ready to start the escort quest, talk to Kayra and get the quest [63]Escape from Umbrafen. Escort her back to Cenarion Refuge. 8. In Cenarion Refuge turn in: o o o o [62]The Umbrafen Tribe, get the follow up [62]A Damp, Dark Place. [63]Plants of Zangarmarsh. You should normally have about 20 extra Unidentified Plant Parts. Get the repeatable quest from her [64]Identify Plant Parts and turn in all the remaining plants you have for extra reputation (you can only repeat this quest until Honored). It is possible to get [63]Uncatalogued Species from the Package of Identified Plants you get, if you are lucky enough to get one accept the quest but wait with turning it in until you are honored with Cenarion Expedition. Get the quest [62]Saving the Sporeloks from the same NPC. Right behind you should be a new quest available: [62+]Safeguarding the Watchers, get it. Go to the Inn and turn in [62]The Dying Balance. Turn in [63]Disturbance at Umbrafen Lake, get the follow up [63]As the Crow Flies. Also turn in [63]Escape from Umbrafen. Now right-click the Stormcrow Amulet from your inventory. You don't have to do anything, just enjoy the ride. When it's over, turn in the quest [63]As the Crow Flies, get the follow up [64]Balance Must Be Preserved. Make space in your bags, buy some food and drink. 1. Head south to Funggor Cavern (75,90) which is southwest of Umbrafen Village, there is small path going up to access it. Enter the cave. At the 1st fork, go right. At the 2nd fork, go right, then go down the slope and look for Ikeyen's Belongings, it' a small box on top of a flat rock, loot it. Go further down the slope and this time go left. Go to the end of that tunnel and you should find Lord Klaq. He is guarded by 3 other fungal giants, but it's still manageable if you go your cooldowns and pot timers ready. Just kill Lord Klaq first and run away if you can't handle them all, wait until they get attacked by sporeloks and Lord Klaq should come solo as long as you don't do damage to the other fungal giants. They will link later once they've killed the sporeloks, but you should be far away already. Anyway, I've managed to solo Lord Klaq + his 3 guards with every class I've played at this level, so you should be able to. Note: they can also be splitted, I managed quite often to pull 1-2 guards without Lord Klaq first. This cave is a nice grinding spot, they are easy to kill and drop Plants for your cenarion faction and they also give Sporeggar faction. So we're gonna grind here until the following objectives are completed: o o o [62]Saving the Sporeloks completed Neutral with Sporregar Level 63 LEVEL 63 2. Get out of the cave. Mount up, go northwest to the Umbrafen Lake Steam Pump (71,81). There should be a Steam Pump Overseer guarding it. Kill it and if you're lucky, it will drop Drain Schematics, loot them and right-click them to start the quest [63]Drain Schematics. If he doesn't drop them, no problem, just read the rest of this paragraph. Go next to the control console and click the Ironvine Seeds in your inventory. Another Steam Pump Overseer should spawn and attack you. Kill it, loot the schematics if you don't have them. If he still didn't drop the schematics, keep using your Ironvine Seeds to spawn more Steam Pump Overseers, until you get the schematics. 3. Ride northwest to Serpent Lake (that's the large lake in the middle of the map), swim towards the middle of the lake until you discover a big steam pump at (50,41). You will have to swim down a little to get the quest update message for [63]Drain Schematics. 4.

Ride to Telredor, turn in [62]Umbrafen Eel Filets and [62]Too Many Mouths to Feed, get the follow up [62]Diaphanous Wings. 2. Get off Telredor and ride northwest to Bloodscale Grounds (65,41). You should find a named naga there, Rajis Fyashe. She is elite and most classes probably can't solo her, she casts frostbolts for 800dmg, tosses you in the air, summons a small elemental and she is immune to root and snare effects. So try to find a partner to duo this quest while you grind on nearby nagas. If you really can't find help, just abandon the quest. 3. Just slightly west you should find another steampump at the eastern tip of Serpent Lake (62,41). Go next to the controle console and use your Ironvine Seeds. 4.

They are those fluorescent red mushrooms you can find scattered everywhere in Zangarmarsh. You'll need 10 for a quest later on. 5. Exit the village and go west. Go west towards Daggerfen Village (27,22) and kill every ogre you find on your way. Once you are in Daggerfen Village, kill every Daggerfen Muckdweller or Assassin in the area, while looking for a Daggerfen Poison Vial. They can be found near the tents and are rather small, so look thoroughly until you find one. 6. Once you've found one, you must find the main tower, which is located a little southwest of here (24,27). Before you go up the spiral staircase, get full HP/Mana, because you'll have to kill 3 mobs at the same time, including Chieftain Mummaki. Loot Chieftain Mummaki's Totem and then look on the floor for an open book called "Daggerfen Poison Manual", loot it too. Now finish [64]Daggerfen Deviance. 7.

Go down the stairs, mount up and ride east / southeast towards The Lagoon and go around it until you end up on the eastern side of the lake where you should encounter Nagas. Clear the way to the steam pump (63,65) and disable it with your Ironvine Seeds. 11. Now we're gonna kill an elite naga called Rajah Haghazed. He can be found in the middle of the naga village under at gazebo structure directly southeast of the steam pump. Most classes can't solo this, so look for a partner to duo it with while killing nagas in the area. Stay in the area at least until you finish [64]A Warm Welcome. If you really can't find help to kill Rajah, just abandon the quest. 12. Mount up and go north to Telredor. Turn in [62]The Boha'mu Ruins, get the follow up [62]Idols of the Feralfen, sell junk and repair. 1. Go west and then slightly southwest until Feralfen Village (50,59).

Swim in, use a charge of your Water Breathing Potion and look for Fenclaw Trashers. There's plenty of them close to the steam pump in the middle of the lake.

Go southeast to Bloodscale Enclave (26,36),kill 12 Bloodscale Slavedrivers and 12 Bloodscale Enchantresses. 8. Now we're gonna hunt Marshlight Bleeders. Go to the northern tip of Marshlight Lake. From there, go all around the lake's western bank, as shown on the map. You should find plenty Marshlight Bleeders, some spore bats and marsh striders and finish [62]Diaphanous Wings, [64]Stinger Venom and [64]Fertile Spores. Just make laps on the western side of the lake until you finish all 3 quests. 9. Go southeast to Sporeggar, turn in: o o [64]Now That We're Friends..., don't get the follow up, it's just a repeatable quest for Sporeggar faction. [64]Fertile Spores, don't take the follow up, it's another repeatable faction quest. This should make you ding level 64. If it doesn't, you can go grind south of here at the spawning glen, this is especially good for herbalists since the giants can be harvested but it's up to you, you can also go grind on ogres or nagas. LEVEL 64 No map needed for the following circuit, it's very short and easy. 1. Go to Watcher Leesa'oh (23,66), turn in [64]Stealing Back the Mushrooms. 2. Ride east to the Boha'mu Ruins (44,66).

Go back to Khadgar and turn in [65]City of Light and now comes a choice you have to make: become an ally of the Scryers or of the Aldor? In my opinion it doesn't really matter, it's up to personal preferences. Here are the rewards you can get from each faction: The Aldor The Scryers ==Note== From now on I will be the following color code for Aldors and Scryers. Aldors Get the quest [65] Ishanah. On the Aldor Rise, ride further northwest to the main building, turn in [65] Ishanah, get the other quest [64] Restoring the Light. Go to the innkeeper (28,49) and set Shattrath as your home location. Scryers Get the quest [65] Voren'thal the Seer. Head south and take the lift to the Scryers' Tier. Go up to the main building and turn in [65] Voren'thal the Seer. Find the Scryers' Inn. Make it your home location. ==Note== The next part involves a quest which has been removed as of patch 2.4.0.

Hearthstone back to Shattrath City (or get a teleport to Shattrath if your Hearthstone is still on cooldown). Now before we start with the quests in Terrokar, there is one last thing we can still do in Zangarmarsh: instances. Try to get a group going for the Slave Pens and The Underbog and do all the quests if you haven't done them already. Hopefully you'll get some decent upgrades. If you can't or don't want to do those instances it's ok, we'll just need to grind more at the end of this level. Once you're done with The Slave Pens and The Underbog, move on to the next paragraph. 1. Go to the nothern part of Shattrath, in the Lower City. Find the Inn (64,16) and get the quest [64]Rather Be Fishin' from Seth. 2. Go west to the Skettis area, move up to the tree house and get [65]The Outcast's Plight from Vekax. 3. Get down and get [62]The Eyes of Skettis from Rilak the Redeemed (53,21). 4. Mount up and ride out of Shattrath by the northeastern tunnel. You should find Silmyr Lake (38,13).

Right-click them to start the quest [64]Cabal Orders. 7. Head east - kill as many Bonelashers as you can on the way - until you find the Tomb of Lights (47,55). Start looking for help, as most classes won't be able to solo [65]The Vengeful Harbinger. Kill ethereals and bonelashers while looking for people willing to team up. Once you have found help (or want to try your luck solo), go inside the tomb, go to the eastern room, clear the whole room. Stand on the circle at the end of the room and click your Draenei Tomb Relic. An arcane guardian will spawn, then 4 waves will attack you: - 2 Vengeful Draeneis - 3 Vengeful Draeneis - 3 Vengeful Draeneis - 1 Vengeful Harbinger All non-elite, so it should be relatively easy to duo unless you get a lot of respawns in the room at the same time. If you are successful, your guardian will move up and die. Then some purple energies will gather in the middle of the circle and a shade will materialize, right-click it to turn in the quest [65]The Vengeful Harbinger.

Turn in [63]Unruly Neighbors and get the 2 follow ups: [64]The Firewing Liaison and [64]Thinning the Ranks. 3. Go back to the orc fortress, kill all the Timber Worg Alphas (if you still need some tails). Clear the way to the main building, enter it and kill Lisaile Fireweaver. After that, look on the floor next to where she was standing, you should find some Fel Orc Plans. Loot them, right-click them and accept the quest [64]Fel Orc Plans.

Start to kill Tuurem Hunters/Scavengers/etc while looking for Draenei Vessels. Clear the way towards the northeast island of Tuurem. 7. Once you're on the northeastern island, look for a hut with a Firewing Courier inside (54,30). Kill the courier and loot the Sealed Box. Clear the way west and get out of Tuurem once you've got 8 Draenei Vessels. 8. Follow the road west until you find Earthbinder Tavgren (44,26). Turn in [64]Investigate Tuurem, get the follow up [64]What Are These Things. For those who did the Zangarmarsh instances, this should be enough to hit level 65. For the others, it's time to grind a little. I recommend grinding on the firewing elves (70,40), especially if you are Scryers, because they drop Firewing Signets and Arcane Tomes on top of runecloth/neatherweave cloth. For the Aldors, you can go grind at the Shadow Tomb or at the Shadow Stair, it's just as good. LEVEL 65 Jame's Alliance Leveling Guide - Chapter V (65-70) Administrator Submitted by Jame on Sun, 2007-10-28 02:06. Jame's Alliance Leveling Guide - Chapter V (65-70) Introduction This guide starts at level 65, if you need guides for any other level range please take a look at this page. This guide is a follow up of the previous chapter of my alliance leveling guide, where a lot of pre-questing has been done already. This guide is optimized for FAST leveling with a minimum of grinding sessions. Quests are important, they give rewards and faction and are less boring than pure grinding. Some people say that grinding is always faster than questing, this is true in theory when you don't know which quests to takeand which to avoid, and what is the best order to do them in. With this guide, questing will be very efficient and much better than pure grinding. Follow each instruction carefully and you will see for yourself. The quest choices and order to do them in are optimized so that you run as few as possible while doing the most possible and then turning several quests in at the same time. This guide will be very useful for both veteran and novice players. I try to keep the amount of information as short as possible. So even the guide itself is optimized for the minimum reading possible, to save time! Let's get started immediately then! Everything described in this guide can be done solo (besides when I say otherwise). However you can follow this guide while duoing, grouping, it's not a problem, it works too. Basic rules o o o o o o o As soon as you see that you start to lack experience compared to the progress described in the guide start to kill everything that is on your way while traveling and that gives experience (Yellow mobs preferably, but greens are ok if they are just 3-4 levels below you, not more). Spend your talent points so you do the most damage possible. (e.g: Priest should specialize in Shadow Talents, Warriors in Arms/Fury, Rogues Combat/Assassination, etc). Don't waste your time trying to find groups for questing, you can solo everything that is described in this guide. Only group with someone when it's not gonna be a waste of time (e.g: meeting the person at the other end of the zone to show him the way to where your quest is - that is a waste of time) Try to always log out in an inn or in one of the major cities when you take a break. If I don't mention a quest, it means I consider it a waste of time, so don't take it thinking I forgot a quest here and there, I didn't. Also don't abandon a quest unless I say you should. Sometimes I will be making lists of quest you should have before starting with an area, that doesn't mean I will list the whole quest log, JUST the quests that interest us for the moment. When I say you should bind (make an inn your home location) somewhere, it's for a good reason, and it will save you much time. Don't change your home location until I say so. Useful Addons Something that's amazingly useful is the Ace2 updater. Download and install it and the program will present you with a list of addons which all use the same library (hence they consume very few ressources). From that list you can choose addons that interest you (I downloaded Fubar quest mod, Fubar location, Cartographer, Bartender and a mod to make my UI look better) and the program will install all the addons for you. Furthermore you can run the program every time before you launch WoW and choose to update all installed modules for you. Side Note: If your addons are not being loaded when you enter the game you might need to log out to your character selection screen and click on "Addons" in the left lower corner. Tick the box that says "Load out of date Addons". Relaunch WoW. Color Code: o Quests o o o o o Items Locations Quest objectives to kill NPCs Locs Level 65 If you followed my previous chapter you should be level 65 and your quest log should look like this: Go north to Lower City and find Oloraak (58,16), get his quest [69]Can't Stay Away. Aldors: Get the quest [64] A Cure for Zahlia from from Sha'Nir (64,15) in Lower City. Both: Fly to Allerian Stronghold, turn in: o o [64]What Are These Things?, get the follow up [64]Report to the Allerian Post. [63]Vessels of Power 1. Ride northeast to Allerian Post (70,44), turn in: o o o [64]The Firewing Liaison [64]Thinning the Ranks [64]Report to the Allerian Post, get the follow up [64]Attack on Firewing Point 2. Go directly north and you should soon reach Firewing Point (70,39). Kill Blood Elves there until you complete [64]Attack on Firewing Point. 3. Once you have completed [64]Attack on Firewing Point, go northwest of firewing point and look for Ironjaw (69,32), a named wolf which roams in the area shown on the map. Just kill stuff in the area while looking for him. Kill Ironjaw and loot Ironjaw's Pelt. Aldor: Also look for Stonegazer, an elite basilisk, which will be quite hard to solo for most classes, as he is immune to movement impairing effects (snares and roots), to fear and to blind. However, he can be stunned and hibernated. Clear the area around to make sure you don't get any adds. If you can't solo it, try to find someone to duo [64] A Cure for Zahlia with you. If you don't find help, just go to the next step, but keep asking for help regularly, we will stay near this area in the next few steps. 4. Go back to Allerian Post, turn in [64]Attack on Firewing Point, get the follow up [65]The Final Code. 5. Go back to Firewing Point. Clear the way to the northeastern building (74,36), it's the building with the highest tower. You should find Isla Starmane in it. But for now ignore her. Go to the top of the tower and kill Sharth Voldoun, loot The Final Code. Use the orb of translocation and you should be back in the room with Isla Starmane. When you're full HP/mana, start her escort quest [64]Escape from Firewing Point. It's easily soloable, just make sure you stay behind Isla and let her get attacked first or sometimes she might just walk past you and not help you. 6. Clear the way to the mana bomb Kill the 4 warlocks around it, right-click the mana bomb and watch it explode. Aldors: Now is your last chance to find and kill Stonegazer. If you can't, abandon the quest [64] A Cure for Zahlia and save it for level 70. Scryer: Grind in the area until you have 10 Firewing Signets. 7. Ride back to Allerian Stronghold. Turn in: o o o [65]The Final Code, get the follow up [63] Letting Earthbinder Tavgren Know. [64]The Elusive Ironjaw [64]Escape from Firewing Point Sell junk and repair. 1. Exit Allerian Stronghold by the southwestern gate. As you exit the woods you should find a few Infested Root-Walkers and Rotting Forest Ragers (52,58). Make sure you kill the wood mites which spawn after you kill each treant. Stay in the area until you finish [65]The Infested Protectors. ==Note== Don't forget to pick up Restless Bones on the way! 2. Go northwest and find a named vulture called Trachela at (43,51). She is immune to movement impairing effects but still an easy kill. Kill her and loot Trachela's Carcass. 3. Head west to the Refugee Caravan and turn in [65]The Infested Proctectors. 4. Ride west/southwest to Veil Rhaze (28,56). Kill what's on the list for [64]Veil Rhaze: Unliving Evil. Start looking for players interested in doing [65]Torgos! Most classes can't solo this one. It's a level 65 Elite bird, immune to movement impairing effects and hits for 800 on cloth. It should be manageable to duo it for most class combos. While you look for help, you can go grind at the Shadowtomb northeast of there. Once you got a group for [65]Torgos!, go back to Veil Rhaze and find a big scarecrow named "Torgos's Bane" (27,56). Use Trachela's Carcass next to it and Torgos will attack you. Kill Torgos and loot his tail feather. If you can't find help for Torgos, just abandon the quest, it's not a big deal. 5. Go northeast to the Shadow Tomb (32,53), enter it. Go to the western room first, clear it and find a cabal chest Loot the Gavel of K'alen. Go to the eastern room, clear it, find the cabal chest and and loot the Drape of Arunen. Go to the northern room, clear till the end of it, find the cabal chest and loot the Scroll of Atalor. Now go back to the entrance of the northern room, where Akuno should be. When you are full HP/Mana, take his quest [64]Escaping the Tomb. Always stay behind Akuno and let him take the first hit to make sure he engages the mobs. He can pretty much solo mobs as long as they are only one on him at a time. There will be 2 ambushes of 2 mobs during the escort, and once you defeat the 2nd one, Akuno will start running towards the caravan, so be ready for that. 6. Go back to the Refugee Caravan. turn in: o o o [64]Veil Rhaze: Unliving Evil, get the follow up [64]Veil Lithic: Preemptive Strike. [64]The Shadow Tomb [64]Escaping the Tomb 7. Head southwest to Veil Lithic (26,71). Remember to gather bones on the way. In Veil Lithic, look for Cursed Eggs: Keep opening eggs until you are done with [64]Veil LIthic: Preemptive Strike. 8. Go southeast to Sha'tari Base Camp (31,76). Get the following quests: o o o [65]An Improper Burial [66]The Dread Relic [65]Taken in the Night And lastly take the escort quest: [65]Digging Through Bones. Follow the dwarves and protect them till you complete the quest, it's very easy. Go back to Sha'tari Base Camp, turn in the escort quest and get the follow up [65]Fumping. 9. If you still need Restless Bones to complete [65]Recover the Bones, go get them now. When you got them, go to Auchindoun, enter through the west gate (33,66). Go up the stairs and to the left, drop down from this point (36,64) very carefully so you don't die from falling damage. 10. Once you are down, enter the lower western gate. Get the quest [67]I See Dead Draenei from Ha'lei. Go to Ramdor the Mad and turn in: o o [67] I See Dead Draenei, get the follow up [67] Ezekiel [65] Recover the Bones, get the follow up [65] Helping the Lost Find Their Way 11. Go to the lower eastern gate and find Isfar (44,65), turn in [69]Can't Stay Away, don't get the follow up. Hearthstone back to Shattrath. Sell junk and repair. Aldor: Go turn in [64] A Cure for Zahlia at Sha'nir (64,15), on the northern side of the Lower City. Scryer: Go to the Scryer's Tier, get the quest [65] Firewing Signets and turn it in. Both: Now you need to find Ezekiel, he walks clockwise on the outer terrace of Shattrath city, so just move anti-clockwise and you'll find him soon. Turn in [67] Ezekiel, take the follow up [67] What Book? I Don't See Any Book. Now look for help to do this quest. You have to beat up 3 npcs in the westernmost part of Lower City in Shattrath (43,29). Most classes can't solo this (I soloed it with frost mage and warlock, couldn't with warrior and rogue), so try to find help, it shouldn't be difficult considering the amount of people who hang out in Shattrath. Once you got some help, go find Dirty Larry and talk to him, he will become attackable and about 10 seconds later he and his 2 friends will attack you. My advice is to polymorph, trap, sap or fear larry while killing his 2 friends, they are easy. Then kill larry, he is elite, hits quite hard and has a lot of HP, so I suggest kiting him unless you have a healer. If you can't polymorph or something similar, I suggest burning larry down fast. As soon as he is down to 1% they will all stop attacking you. ==Note== If you can't find help to do this quest, just move on and try again later everytime we make a stop by Shattrath. Turn in the quest [67] What Book? I don't see any book and get the follow up [67]The Master's Grand Design. 1. Exit Shattrath by the eastern gate and follow the road till you find Earthbinder Tavgren. Turn in [63] Letting Earthbinder Tavgren Know. 2. Go southwest to the Refugee Caravan. Turn in [64]Veil Lithic: Preemptive Strike, get the follow up [65]Veil Shalas: Signal Fires. Go to the western edge of the caravan, just at the point where the subzone changes to "The Bone Wastes" (36,51). Use your Fumper and a gnome or a Sifter should spawn. Get closer to the guards and they should help you kill them. If it's a gnome, just let the guards kill them, they give no xp and no loot. If it's a Sifter, just make sure you do more damage than the guards or you won't be able to loot them. Rinse and repeat until you got 8 Mature Bone Sifter Carcass. ==Note== From now on while in the bone wastes, kill all Lost Spirits or Broken Skeletons on sight, until you have 10 of each. 3. Head south/southwest to Sha'tari Camp. Turn in [65] Fumping, get the follow up [65] The Big Bone Worm. 4. Go east and use your Sha'tari Torch to burn those Draenei corpses until you finish [65] An Improper Burial. Go back to Sha'tari Camp, turn it in and get the follow up [65] A Hero is Needed. 5. Head east while killing Auchenai Initiates and Doomsayers. You don't need to finish the quest linked to them already, we'll pass by this area again. Keep going east until you find the Derelict Caravan (44,76). Look for a big chest labelled "Massive Treasure Chest". Clear the area around the chest, there are many invisible ghosts nearby. When you right-click the chest, you will loot the relic and about 30 zombies will spawn and attack you. They got about 500HP, so if you got any AoE abilities it's easy to take them all down. If you don't, you can just run away, all that matters is that you looted the dread relic. 6. Go north and find the entrance to the eastern tunnel of Auchindun (44,73). Read this whole paragraph before you do anything. We're gonna solo the elite quest [63] The Big Bone Worm, which is impossible, but there's a trick. Here's how: o o o Find a decrepit clefthoof, kill it. Use your Fumper on it, if two bone worms spawn just run away, they don't give exp and they'll despawn eventually. If three gnomes spawn, you have to kill them, they don't give up and you can't run away from them, sadly. Keep doing this until the elite worm Hai'shulud spawns. When he spawns, run to the tunnel mentioned above, go down the first slope and turn at the first corner. You should be safe if you position yourself like on the screenshot below: Now try to hit the worm with ranged attacks every now and then, playing with line of sight to avoid getting hit by his poison bolts. Healing yourself / bandaging yourself also helps to give you the credit for the kill. I've done it many times sucessfully with the worm still being at 99% HP from simply throwing daggers with a rogue. I bandaged twice and used a health pot, that was enough. After about 2 minutes he will die automatically. Loot the "Enormous Bone Worm Organs" off him. Well done. 7. From the tunnel, go east/southeast until you find Vindicator Haylen (50,76). Get his quest [65]For the Fallen. 8. Go east to Netherweb Ridge (52,77). Kill spiders and Netherweb Victims to free Sha'tar Warriors. When you're done with both quests, go back to Vindicator Haylen, turn in [65]For the Fallen and get the follow up [65] Terokkarantula. 9. (Optional) Many classes cannot solo Terokkarantula, because this spider is immune to movement impairing effects and to fear. She can be stunned though. So if you can solo her or got someone to help you, go to the south eastern tip of the forest and you’ll find Terokkarantula there (53,81). I you can’t find help and can’t solo her, just abandon the quest and come back to do it at level 70. It’s about 20000xp worth of quest exp, so that’s a nice sum of cash at level 70. If you kill Terokkarantula, go back to Vindicator Haylen, turn in the quest and get the follow up [65] Return to Sha’tari Base Camp. 10. Go northeast, you should find a bird named Skywing at (54,72). Rebuff and get full HP/mana before you take his quest, it's an escort, and the nice thing about this escort is that you do 75% of the [65] Veil Shalas: Signal Fires quest. ==Note== It appears that this quest is bugged as of lately. Skywing bugs out and freezes after he jumps down to the lower tree house. Try it anyway, and if it's no longer bugged, please leave a comment to inform me. ps: If you clear the platform that Skywing jumps to, before you accept the escort quest, the bird will not freeze. Try this if the quest failed the first time. It’s definitely soloable if you are careful about two things: o o Let Skywing infront so he takes the first beating. He has quite a lot of HP so you can actually eat/drink while he starts killing stuff, just make sure you always stay relatively close to him though. When up the tree house, do NOT fight with your back close to the edges, because some of those birdmen knockback, and if you get kicked off the tree house you’ll fail the quest for sure and you might also die. With that in mind, let’s get started. Once you're ready, take the quest [65]Skywing. While following Skywing, turn off the fires when you get near them. The first fire is called "Bloodstone Signal Fire". The 2nd fire is called "Violet Signal Fire". This is when it gets a little more difficult. Skywing will jump down to a lower platform, follow him across a bridge and shortly after he’ll stop and Lunga the Imprisoner will spawn and attack him. Lunga is elite and immune to movement impairing effect, but he doesn’t melee hard. His chain lightning hurts so try to interrupt them, but if you burn him down quick you should be ok. Use a potion if needed. After that, the escort quest should be complete and right next to where you fought Lunga you should find the 3rd fire: "Emerald Signal Fire". While standing next to the emerald signal fire, if you face directly north you should see a rock. Mount up and jump on it, then from this rock you can jump to the next treehouse further north. On the lower floor of this treehouse you can find the last brazier: "Sapphire Signal Fire". Once you’ve extinguished all 4 fires and successfully escorted Skywing, get down the platform, take the northern path leading down and exit Veil Shalas. No map needed for the rest of this circuit, you already went to those locations at least once. 11. Ride southwest and then west back towards Sha’tar Base Camp. Kill stuff on the way until you finish [65]A Hero is Needed and [65]Helping the Lost Find Their Way. In Sha'tari Base Camp turn in: o o o o o [65] Taken in the Night [65] A Hero Is Needed, get the follow up [65]The Fallen Exarch [65] The Big Bone Worm [66] The Dread Relic, don’t get the follow up. I recommend saving that quest for level 70 unless you really want the quest rewards now. Most classes can’t solo this quest at this level. [65] Return to Sha'tari Base Camp (that one was optional) 12. Go north to Auchindoun, enter through the west gate (33,66). Up the stairs you should see a chest called "Aunchenai Coffin". Kill the 4 Auchenai Death-Speakers around it then get close to the coffin and click it. A Reanimated Exarch will spawn, kill it. 13. Go back to Sha'tari Base Camp, turn in [65] The Fallen Exarch. 14. Ride to the Refugee Caravan,, turn in [65] Veil Shalas: Signal Fires,, get the follow up [65] Return to Shattrath.. Also turn in [65] Helping the Lost Find Their Way. 15. (optional) If you completed the quest [66] Torgos!, ride east to Allerian Stronghold and turn it in. Hearthstone to Shattrath City.. Go see Rilak the Redeemed in the northern part of Lower City (53,21). Turn in [65] Return to Shattrath and [65] Skywing. Right next to Rilak stands Defender Grash Grashna, he should have a quest now: [65] The Skettis Offensive.. Certain classes probably can't solo it, but you can give it a try. There are 4 waves: 2 birds, 2 birds, 3 brids, 1 big bird. The normal birds hit reasonably hard but have very few HPs. Make sure you ou eat/drink or bandage in between waves. Save your potion and cooldown abilities for the big bird. He hits for 1000 on cloth but he can be kited, polymorphed, hibernated, stunned, feared, etc. If you can’t manage it, ask for help, there’s a lot of people in Shattrath doing nothing but standing there and looking pretty Turn in [65] The Skettis Offensive for 16000xp and a decent necklace. Sell junk and repair. Get out of Shattrath, ride southwest to Nagrand (20,56). 1. In Nagrand follow the road northwest and then west until you find a goblin on the left side of the road called Wazat (62,67).. Get his quest [66]I Must Have Them!. ==Kill List== From now on, kill any Air Elemental you see. At some point, one of them should drop an item called "Howling Wind". Right-click it and start the quest [67] The Howling Wind. It would be nice to get this quest as soon as possible, so make sure you kill every air elemental on sight, even if that means making a detour. Also kill any Wild Elekk on sight, they drop tusks which will be needed in a later quest. 2. Follow the road west until you find the alliance town of Telaar (55,71). In Telaar, get all the quests, they should be easy to spot on your minimap: o o o o [65]Do My Eyes Deceive Me [65]The Nesingwary Safari [67] Fierce Enemies [66] Wanted: Giselda the Crone and [66] Wanted: Zorbo the Advisor from the Wanted Poster Turn in: o [64] A Message to Telaar Go through the first building on the right and on the balcony get [66] The Throne of the Elements. Southwest of the Inn, in the center of the town you should find more quests, get [67] Solving the Problem and [67] Stopping the Spread. Also get the quest [67] The Ravaged Caravan from a roaming npc. Lastly, get the new flight path. You should have 11 quests right now: Note: Maybe 12 quests if you already have [67] The Howling Wind, which we will need pretty soon, so keep killing those air elementals on the way! 3. Exit Telaar by the northern bridge and go straight north, you should find a draenei building called The Abandoned Armory (51,57). Go inside, turn in [67] The Master's Grand Design? and get the follow up [67] Vision of the Dead. 4. Go east till you get back on the road and follow the road north and then northeast, all the way to Nesingwary Safari (72,41). Turn in the quest [65] The Nesingwary Safari and get the 3 mastery quests: [65] Talbuk Mastery, [65] Windroc Mastery and [66] Clefthoof Mastery. Start to kill Windrocs, Clefthooves, Talbuk Stags and Dust Howlers in the area. Stay close to the Nesingwary Safari and keep checking if a gnome NPC named Kristen DeMeza shows up. When she comes, she will get attacked by an undead NPC, defend her and she will have a quest for you: [65] I'm Saved!, turn it in immediately for 11000 easy XP. She might already be in the camp with her quest available when you arrive, but she might also take 30 minutes to show up, so just grind on the mobs around here and keep checking on Nesingwary Camp regularly. If Kristen still hasn't shown up when you are done with the objectives listed below, just give up. She's just one quest, no follow up, so it doesn't matter. Keep killing everything in the area until you get a Howling Wind, right-click it and start the quest [67]The Howling Wind. 5. Go northwest and swim across the lake all the way to the Throne of the Elements (61,23). Turn in: o o [67] The Howling Wind, get the follow up [67] Murkblood Corrupters [66] The Throne of the Elements Get the other quests: o o o [65] A Rare Bean [66] Muck Diving [65] The Underneath There's a big rock giant called "Gordawg" at the throne of the elements. Go talk to him and turn in [65]The Underneath, get the follow up [65] The Tortured Earth. 6. Now go back to the area around Nesingwary Safari and kill everything there until you complete the following objectives: o o o o Finish the 3 mastery quests Find 3 Air Elemental Gas Finish [65]The Tortured Earth Hit Level 66 Level 66 Go to Nesingwary Safari and turn in the 3 mastery quests, get the 3 follow up. Ride northwest, cross the lake and go to the Throne of the Elements. Turn in [65] The Tortured Earth, get the follow up [66] Eating Damnation. Hearthstone to Shattrath, take a portal to a main city and go train new skills. Visit the auction house, restock consumables and make space in your bags. Since you're level 66 and in a main city, this would be the perfect time to get a group and go to Mana Tombs. Get some good rewards, XP, reputation and take a break from all the questing we've been doing. If you really don't want to do an instance then just go to the next paragraph and go on with the guide. However, that means you'll have to do a bit of grinding later on. When you're ready to go again, get a teleport back to Shattrath (or use your hearthstone if it's ready again). Fly to Telaar, Nagrand. ==Note== From now on, if you see a Caverns of Time: Old Hillsbrad group forming up, try to join it. This is the right level for it and it's fun. You'll have to do it someday anyway to get attuned to Karazhan. 1. Exit Telaar by the eastern bridge. Then face east and go to the ogre mound (61,71) while killing ALL the Clefthoof Bulls and Talbuk Thorngrazers you see on the way. Kill Boulderfist Hunters there until one drops the Boulderfist Plans. 2. Go to the goblin just north of the ogre mound (62,67). Turn in [66] I Must Have Them!, get the follow up [66] Bring Me The Egg!. Now you must find help to do the follow up, because you'll have to fight a level 66 elite bird, and most classes can't solo it, he's immune to slowing effects like frostbolts, but he can be frost novaed. 2 players should be enough. While you look for help, go back to the previous area and kill Bulls and Talbuks. If you can't find help, just abandon the quest and skip the rest of this paragraph to step 3. You can come back later on at level 70 for this quest, as the rewards are quite nice. Once you got help, go back to the goblin, and now you have to use the Jump-a-tron 4000 to land on that tree branch with the big egg called "Mysterious Egg". The trick is to position yourself exactly in the middle of the Jump-a-tron and have your character face the middle of the nest. Then click the Jump-a-tron 4000, change your camera view so you can see below and as soon as you're almost above the nest, click off the levitation buff. It should take a few tries to get the timing right and you might die from falling if you click it off too early, so be careful with that. If you really can't manage it, there is another way, but it requires a 100% speed mount: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-4546574312878450602 3. Go back to Telaar, turn in [65] Do My Eyes Deceive Me, get the follow up [65] Not On My Watch!. 4. Go back to the same ogre mound where we found the boulderfist plans, remember to kill bulls and talbuks on the way. Clear the way up the ogre mound and you should find a sleeping ogre called Lump (62,72). Attack him and get him down to below 20% HP and he'll become friendly. Talk to him until you get the quest complete message for [65] Not On My Watch!. 5. Go back to Telaar, turn in the quest and get the follow up [65] Mo'mor the Breaker, check your minimap and you should see a yellow question mark - that's where Mo'mor the Breaker is. Go to him and turn in the quest, get the follow up [65] The Ruins of Burning Blade. 6. Mount up, go east, follow the road east and then southeast at the fork. Keep going and you should find the Burning Blade Ruins (74,72). Clear the way inside the village and to the left you should find an NPC in a caged called Corki. Get his quest [65] HELP!. Kill ogres in the area until one drops a Boulderfist Key. When you loot it it will automatically go to your keyring, so make sure to check for in there. Once you have the key, go right-click Corki's Prison to free him. Kill ogres until you finish [65] The Ruins of Burning Blade, then go back to Telaar. Turn in: o o [65] HELP!, get the follow up [66] Corki's Gone Missing Again! [65] The Ruins of Burning Blade, get the follow up [66] The Twin Clefts of Nagrand Get the new quest [68] He Called Himself Altruis.... This quest only becomes available at level 66, and is given by the same roaming npc which gave us the caravan quest earlier. Sell junk and repair, but be careful not to sell Ogre Warbeads or Ivory Tusks. 1. Exit Telaar by the western bridge, you should find a quest npc at (51,70), get his quest [66] The Consortium Needs You!. Right next to the npc you should see two Enraged Crushers, kill them. ==Note== From now on, if you see Murkblood Invaders (3 Murkblood invaders riding elekks), kill them. You don't have to kill all 3, you just need to kill one and loot the Murkblood Invasion Plans from them. Check the minimap below to see their patrol route. We don't need those plans right now, so don't go looking for them, just kill them if you see them while doing other quests. 2. North of here you should find lar large plains with a lot of Ravenous Windrocs (49,62). (49,62) First kill the 3 Enraged Crushers near the northern ledge of the plains (they are marked on the map). Then stay in this area and kill 30 Ravenous Windrocs and kill the 3 Enraged Crushers a second time when they respawn. 3. Go to (47,40),, and follow the ledge as shown on the map, kill every Enraged Crusher, Crusher Talbuk Thorngrazer and Clefthoof Bulls on the way. Also try to see if the Murkblood Invaders are there when you get close to the northern road. Repeat th this is loop until you finish the 2 following quests: o o [66] Eating Damnation [67] Clefthoof Mastery 4. Go towards the western tip of the lake north of Garadar (50,26). Gather 15 Digested Caracoli. Caracoli They are glowing piles of dung, easy to spot Finish [66] Talbuk Mastery while you are here. 5. Go east to the Throne of the Elements Elements, Turn in: o o [65] A Rare Bean,, get the follow up [65] Agitated Spirits of Skysong (Keep the Nagrand Cherries, they will be useful soon) [66] Eating Damnation,, get the follow up [67] Shattering the Veil Destroy Gordawg's Imprint,, it's useless now and just takes inventory space. 6. Go dive in the lake south, use a Nagrand Cherry and kill 12 Lake Spirits. Go back to the throne of the elements, turn in [65] Agitated Spirits of Skysong,, get the follow up [65] Blessing of Incineratus.. 7. Head southeast across the lake, go to Nesingwary Safari and turn in: o o o [66] Talbuk Mastery [67] Clefthoof Mastery [67] Windroc Mastery Get all 3 follow ups. 8. Go south to Windyreed Village (72,50). Set the four huts on fire with your Living Fire, which should be in your inventory. You have to stand inside the huts and in the middle of them for it to work. 9. Go back to the throne of the elements, turn in [65] Blessing of Incineratus, get the follow up [66] The Spirit Polluted. 1. Ride west / southwest to the ogre cave at (40,32) just north of Halaa. Clear the way to the cave. Go to the northernmost part of the cave, where you should find Corki. Right-click the cage to free him, you should already have the key. If you don't have it, kill some more ogres until one drops it. Once Corki is free, clear the way out and kill all the ogres you still need to finish [66] The Twin Clefts of Nagrand. 2. Go south to Halaani Basin (41,38). Kill Muck Spawns until you get 5 Muck-ridden Cores. 3. When you're done, find the exit on the northwestern side of the basin (37,38). Mount up and go south to Lake Sunspring (35,43). Dive in, pop a Nagrand Cherry and complete the following 3 objectives : o o o Kill 10 Lake Surgers Kill Watoosun’s Polluted Essence, a big elemental in the middle of the lake (33,50) Use your Torch of Liquid Fire on 10 Sunspring Villager corpses, which can be found floating underwater near the northern bank of the lake 4. Go north to Sunspring Village. Follow the main path in the middle of the village, and clear the way to the 2nd house on your right-hand side. Inside the house should be 2 Murkblood Brutes next to a Kurenai Captive (33,42). Kill the two brutes and the captive should have a quest for you. Before you accept the quest, clear everything around the house and get full health, because as soon as you accept the quest [67] The Totem of Kardash you’ll get ambushed by 2 Murkblood Raider and 1 Murkblood Putrifier. Kill the putrifier first. Make sure you don’t let the Kurenai Captive die, as he is rather weak, compared to the usual escort quest npc. Don’t even think about looting, you probably won’t have time, bandage or drink right after you finish the first fight and follow the captive. There will be a 2nd ambush further up the road, so save your cooldowns and pot timers for that one, it will be the most difficult part. If you manage this 2nd ambush you’ll finish the escort sucessfully. This escort is rather hard compared to other escort quests, so if you don’t manage it, try to find help. If you can’t find help and don’t manage to solo it, just abandon it, save it for later for some easy cash at level 70. Before leaving Sunspring Village, kill murkbloods until you finish [67] Solving the Problem and [67] Murkblood Corrupters. ==Note== From now on, kill Aged Clefthoofs and Greater Windrocs on sight until they drop what you need for the quest [67] Vision of the Dead. We'll get the Mountain Gronn Eyeball later, so don't bother with that. 5. Follow the road southwest until you find Altruis the Sufferer (27,43). Turn in [68] He Called Himself Altruis..., get the follow up [68] Survey the Land. Enjoy the ride and turn in the quest at the end. Do not get the follow up, this is one of those quests you should save for level 70. However, if you already have a group willing to do the chain, please do so. 6. Mount up, get back on the road and follow it south until you find Aeris Landing (31,58). Get the following quests: o o [66] Matters of Security [67] Gava'xi Turn in: o [66] The Consortium Needs You!, get the follow up [66] Stealing from Thieves o [66]A Head Full of Ivory Ivory,, which you can return in immediately, since you’ve been killing Elekks on sight for a while now and should have 3 tusks at least. If you don’t have them it’s no problem, you can turn tthat hat quest in later, but you better get serious on the Elekk hunting from now on ! If you got extra 3x tusks, you can turn in more of them for Cons Consortium faction. Find the Consortium Quartermaster, sell junk and repair. 7. Go south to the Spirit Fields (34,65) (34,65).. The first thing you're gonna do is look for a group to kill Banthar,, a named clefthoof you need for the last clefthoof mastery quest. You can see his patrol route here: Most classes can’t solo it, but you can always try. He’s immune to movement impairing effects and fear, but can be stunned. In the meantime, you have plenty of things to do in this area : o o o Kill 12 Voidspawns Gather 10 Oshu'gun Crystal Fragments Look for the Murkblood Invaders (there is a map of their pathing above), kill one of them and loot the Murkblood Invasion Plans Plans. Right-click click it and start the quest [67]Murkblood Invaders Invaders. If after that you still haven’t found help for Banthar, do the next steps, and keep looking for help, they are still relatively close. 8. Go southeast of Oshu’gun hu’gun and kill Gava’xi, who spawns at (42,72) and walks to the top of the nearby hill. 9. Go southwest until you reach the edge of the zone (38,82). You can find Shattered Rumblers all along the edge if you go northwest from here. Use your Gordawg's Boulder on them and they will split into several Minions of Gurok. Kill 30 of them. 10. Go back to Telaar, turn in all the quests and get all the follows ups: o o o [66] Diplomatic Measures [67] Corki's Ransom [67] Ortor My Old Friend... Your quest log should look like this at the moment: 1. Follow the road east to the Burning Blade Ruins. This time we're not here to kill ogres, but to find Lantresor of the Blade, who is located at the northernmost point of the ruins at (74,63). When you find him, listen to his tale and then turn in the quest [66] Diplomatic Measures, get the 2 follow ups: o o [66] Armaments for Deception [66] Ruthless Cunning 2. Exit the ruins and go southwest to Kil'sorrow Fortress (70,76). In this fortress, complete those 4 objectives: o o o o Kill 15 Kil'sorrow Agents Plant 20 Warmaul Banners on Kil'sorrow agent corpses Gather 20 Kil'sorrow Armaments, they are big crates scattered everywhere in the fortress Kill Giselda the Crone, she can be found inside the biggest building in the southern part of the fortress. 3. Go back to Lantresor and turn in the two quests, get the two follow ups: o [66] Body of Evidence o [66] Returning the Favor 4. Go to the Throne of the Elements, turn in all the quests, get the follow up [67] Gurok the Usurper. This should make you ding level 67, if it doesn't, it means you skipped the mana tombs instance, but it's not a problem, because we're gonna go to a very good grind spot soon. Level 67 5. Go west to the Laughing Skull Ruins (50,22). Kill ogres and plant Kil'sorrow Banners on their corpses. First, clear the way to the Warmaul Pyre (46,24). Use the Damp Woolen Blanket from your inventory, 2 ogres will spawn, defend them while they do their thing until you get a complete message. Now clear the way towards the northernmost cave of Laughing Skull Ruins, which can be found higher up the hills at (46,19). Inside the cave you should see Zorbo the Advisor, kill him. Kill ogres and plant banners into their corpses until you finish [66] Wanted: Zorbo the Advisor and [66] Returning the Favor. 6. Next part is probably the funniest, quickiest and most rewarding quest line of all times, but it is also difficult even for a full group for 65-67: The Ring of Blood. You can find the quest giver for this 5-man quest line just west of the Laughing Skull Ring (43,21). You will have to complete 6 quests, each consisting in defeating a boss mob in the pit just below the quest giver. You will need a full group for level 65+, including a decent tank and a healer. Setting up such a group can take time, so we're gonna do other things while we try to build up a group for this event. First of all, for those not level 67 yet, grind on ogres until you reach level 67. Go to the next paragraph, and keep looking for a group for the Ring of Blood event. You also need to finish your mastery quests now, and the last two mobs we need to kill can't be soloed by most classes, but can be duo'd by any class mix. So look for help for those last two mastery quests while also looking for a Ring of Blood group. The map below shows where Gutripper (windroc mastery) and Bach'lor (Talbuk Mastery) are. So this is the time to call help from your guild and friends, since you've got plenty of elite quests to do, you could do them all in one bunch. In the meantime, grinding on those ogres is a good thing because they give good money, cloth, kurenai reputation and ogre warbeads (for consortium reputation). Aldors: You should grind at the Kil'Sorrow Fortress for more Aldor faction. Both: If you really can't find help and are tired of grinding, go to the next paragraph and proceed with the guide, but keep looking for help for the above elite quests! ==Note== You can also try doing the Auchindoun: Sethekk Halls instance from now on. The two quests can be picked up in front of the instance. So if you see a group forming up, feel free to join it. 1. Head west of the Laughing Skull Ruins, to an area with Greater Windrocs and Aged Clefthoofs (36,19). Kill them all, luckily one of them will drop what we need for [67] Vision of the Dead. If not, just move on, we'll kill more of them later on. 2. Head further west to another area with Windrocs and Clefhoofs (33,22), kill them too if you still need either of their drops. Still no luck? No problem, move on. 3. Go south, stay close to the mountain on your right-hand side, kill windrocs and clefthoofs as you go (if you still need them). You should soon find a path going up to Warmaul Hills (30,32). You should find a Mountain Gronn roaming up and down that path. Kill one, they are elite but can be soloed rather easily. Loot a Mountain Gronn Eyeball from it. 4. Move up the slope, kill ogres while looking for Telaar Supply Crates. After a little while, on your right-hand side you should see a path going up and northwest. Follow it. 5. You should soon reach a plateau, on the southern side of it is a cave entrance (27,23), that's where we need to go for [67] Corki's Ransom. To the left of the cave is a path going up, that's where the giant you need to summon and kill for [67] Gurok the Usurper. However you need 2 or 3 people for Gurok the Usurper, so check if there are any people interested for it. In the meantime, go inside the cave and save Corki, he's at the southeasternmost point of the cave. He's guarded by an elite ogre but he's easy enough to solo, or you can porlymorph, sap, fear him while freeing Corki. Up to you. Turn in [67] Corki's Ransom and get the follow up [67] Cho'war the Pillager. 6. Now all you have to do is finish gathering 20 Telaar Supply Crates while looking for people interested in doing either [67] Cho'war the Pillager or [67] Gurok the Usurper. Cho'war requires 2 or 3 people and is in the last cave on top of the mountain, to access it you have to go back to the previous plateau and go through the nothern cave. One thing about Gurok if you do it, make sure to tell your group to fight with their backs to the mountain, because Gurok likes to knockback, and it will throw you off the mountain to a certain death. In any case, if you can't find help for those two quests, just forget it and save them for level 70. Proceed to the next step. ==Note== You should already have 10 Obsidian Warbeads for the quest [67] Fierce Enemies at this point. If you don't, kill ogres in this area and finish it before you leave. 7. Get off the mountain, kill Windrocs if you still need their drop. 8. If you still need the drop from the Aged Clefthoof, a couple of them can be found near Forge Camp: Fear and Forge Camp: Hate. 9. Go to Sunspring Post (32,40). Clear the way to the main big building and kill Ortor. He has two guards, you can either kill Ortor fast and run away, or you can polymorph/sap him and kill his guards first. Both methods work. ==Note== Kill Aged Clefthoofs on the way if you still don't have the drop, this is our last chance to finish the quest. It is rumored that Aged Clefthoofs share their spawn locations with Living Cyclones. So kill cyclones if you are having troubles to find Aged Clefthoofs, and they should spawn eventually. 10. Mount up and go to Aeris Landing (31,58). Turn in the three quests. 11. Go back to Telaar, turn in all quests. Get the following new quests: o o [67] Wanted: Durn the Hungerer [67] Visions of Destruction Don't get the other quest. 1. No map needed for this short circuit, we already know the locations. Exit Telaar by the northern bridge and go to the abandonned armory (52,57). Turn in [67] Vision of the Dead, get the follow up [67] Levixus the Soul Caller. We won't be doing this quest in the guide, save it for level 70. 2. (optional) If you did the quest [67] Gurok the Usurper, go to the Throne of the Elements and turn it in. If not, save it for level 70. 3. Go to the Nesingwary Safari, turn in all the quests, get the last quest of the chain: [68] The Ultimate Bloodsport. 4. Go to the Burning Blade Ruins, clear to Lantresor of the Blade and turn in both quests, get the follow up [66] Message to Telaar. 5. Ride back to Telaar, turn in Turn in [66] Message to Telaar. 6. We are gonna do one last thing in Nagrand: kill Tusker and possibly Durn the Hungerer. Tusker is easily duoable (and can even be soloed by some classes). Durn the Hungerer on the other hand requires at least 3 people, including a tank and a healer. Tusker can be found on top of a hill northeast of Oshu'gun at (43,65). Durn the Hungerer makes a full circle around Oshu'gun. If you can't find enough people for Durn the Hungerer, just move on and save it for level 70. You should really do tusker though, it's quite easy with two people and the rewards are quite nice. 7. Go turn in Durn the Hungerer at Telaar (if you did it) and then go to Nesingwary Safari, turn in Tusker. We are done with Nagrand! Time to move to the next zone: Blade's Edge Mountains. Hearthstone to Shattrath. Sell and repair, make space in your bags, etc. When you're ready to go again, fly to Orebor Harborage, Zangarmarsh. Get the quest [65] No Time for Curiosity. Follow the path east going up to the mountains. Get the quest [65] Killing the Crawlers at the entrance to the tunnel. Go through the tunnel while killing 6 Cavern Crawlers. After the tunnel, stay on the path until you reach Sylvanaar (37,67). Turn in your quests and get all the quests available. You should have 6 quests listed under Blade's Edge Mountains in your quest log. Also get the new flight path and make this inn your home location. 1. Head south, kill as many Groverstalker Lynx as you can on the way. Follow the road until you see a path going up on your right-hand side (37,75). Enter Veil Lashh, go towards the tree house and kill birdmen until you have 18 Plucked Lashh'an Feathers. Once you got them, go up the tree house and find this book: Open it, turn in the quest, get the follow up [66] Scratches. Now just under the treehouse you should find a green arcane circle on the floor: Stand on it and use the Fistful of Feathers from your inventory, you should receive a 10 minute buff. 2. Mount up and go back to Sylvanaar quickly, go next to Darnelle, a dryad standing in front of the biggest building. Shortly after the quest will be complete and you can turn in the quest. 3. Go back outside and kill Lynxs until you finish [66] The Entroaching Wilderness, then go back to Sylvanaar, turn it in and get the follow up [66] Marauding Wolves. 4. Head east across the bridge, you should enter some woods called Jagged Ridge (51,65). Kill 4 Thunderlord Dire Wolves to complete [66] Marauding Wolves. 5.

Go back to Sylvanaar, turn in the quest and get the follow up [66] A Dire Situation. 7. Go southeast and find the path (39,74) leading down to the Bloodmaul Ravine. Clear the way towards the southern part of the ravine, and use Rina's Diminution Powder on every Bloodmaul Dire Wolf you see (you have to be in melee range). Also look for Bloodmaul Brew Kegs on the way. 8. At the end of the ravine you should find a cave entrance (43,80). Enter it, and look for Draenethyst Mine Crystals: Gather 5 of them. Get out of the mine and finish the 3 other quests: [66] Strange Brew, [66] The Bloodmaul Ogres and [66] A Dire Situation. 9. Go back to Sylvanaar, turn in all quests, get all the follow ups: o o [66] The Bladespire Ogres [66] Getting the Bladespire Tanked 1.

Get her quest [65] The Trappings of a Vindicator. 2. Clear the way west/southwest inside Bladespire Grounds to a rather large building at (39,54). There are 5 ogres inside the building, 2 non elite, 2 elites and the named you need: Droggam. First, kill the 2 non elites. Then to pull Droggam solo, get as close as you can without entering their aggro radius, and use a charge of your Bloodmaul Brutebane Keg. Droggam will come solo, kill him and loot Vindicator Vuuleen's Blade. The radius of attraction of the beer seems to be 30 yard, which is more than enough since those ogres have an aggro range of 15 yards or so. 3. Clear the way southeast to another big building at (42,57). This is the same scenario as the previous building, kill 2 non elite ogres, lure Mugdorg with a beer and kill him. Loot Vindicator Vuuleen's Shield. 4. Go back to Vindicator Vuuleen, turn in the quest and get the follow up [67] Gorr'Dim, Your Time Has Come... 5.

Go back to Vindicator Vuuleen, turn in the quest and get the follow up [67] Planting the Banner. 6. Clear the way southwest towards a 2-story building (39,58).

Now get 2 more ogres drunk to complete [66] Getting the Bladespire Tanked and kill a few more ogres to complete [66] The Bladespire Ogres. 7. Go east and get out of Bladespire Grounds, mount up and go south to (46,74) where you should see a tower. Go to the top of the tower, and before you plant the Bladespire Clan Banner, here are a few tips: o o o o o This quest is soloable by pretty much every class, but it can be difficult. After you plant the ogre banner, you'll have to fight 4 waves of ogres (2 Ogres, 3 ogres, 3 ogres, 1 Named ogre), non elite. You can actually go down halfway on the tower and eat/drink between waves. The ogres won't notice you there while they are going to the top of the tower, because they only become agressive once they are on top. Save your pots/cooldowns for wave 2 and 3. The named, Gurn, isn't that hard. He comes solo and can be kited, feared, stunned, etc. I haven't tried it, but it is rumored that if you die and run back quickly from the graveyard, you can continue the event where you left off. Good luck! When you finish it, loot the Helm of Gurn Grubnosh. Hearthstone to Sylvanaar. Turn in the 3 quests, get the follow up [67] Where Did Those Darn Gnomes Go?. 1.

When Gorgrom is dead, go next to his corpse and drop the 3 Grisly Totems you gathered earlier. Keep killing ogres until you finish [68] Slaughter at Boulder'mok. Destroy any extra grisly totem you might have. 6. Go south to the wyrmcult cave. Enter the cave and keep going right, you can hug the left wall so that you don't have to fight Kolphis Darkscale. If you managed to gather another 5 costume scraps, use them and disguise yourself, this will save us much time. Go to the end of the cave and kill Maxnar the Ashmaw (34,36). Hearthstone back to Evergrove. Turn in the all 3 quests, get the follow up [67] Baron Sablemane Has Requested Your Presence. Sell junk and repair. Destroy any extra costume scraps you might have. 1. Go to Baron Sablemane. Turn in [67] Baron Sablemane Has Requested Your Presence, get the follow up [67] Massacre at Gruul's Lair. You can solo this next step but it will be much less painful if you get a group for it. Not to mention the next step has to be done in a group (minimum 2 players, easier with 3+), so better get one now and do the follow up quest with them. The rewards of the follow up quest are really nice so it's worth it. 2. Go north to Soulgrinder's Barrow (58,25). Kill what you need for [67] Massacre at Gruul's Lair besides Fingrom. 3.

Go back to Gruul's Lair and locate the altar at (64,18). Wait till your group is full HP/Mana and ready then use Sablemane's Signet. Goc will spawn, do NOT attack him, let Baron Sablemane take the aggro and tank him. Goc is Level 70 and has around 130k HP so you need to burn him down quick before he kills Sablemane, without pulling aggro. You can't heal Baron Sablemane. When done, go back to Baron Sablemane, turn in [70]Showdown, which should make you ding level 69. Level 69 1. Go back to Evergrove, fly to Shattrath, take a portal to a city and go train new skills, re-stock consumables, make space in your bags, etc. When ready, hearthstone back to Evergrove. 2. Fly to Toshley's Station. 3. If your class can levitate, just levitate down to Death's Door. If your class doesn't have any sort of levitation spell, mount up and ride to the cave at (54,62).

Turn in [68] Death's Door, get the follow up [68] Harvesting the Fel Ammunition. Start killing everything besides Void Terrors (those ugly demon dogs) while going south. Keep killing stuff until you got 5 Fel Cannonballs. When done with that, use your Druid Signal again, turn in [68] Harvesting the Fel Ammunition, get the follow up [68] Fire At Will! 5. Clear the way to the southern fel cannon (65,68). Once you've located it, read the next paragraph before you take control of the cannon. To destroy the warp-gate, you have to take control of a fel cannon. When you use your Naturalized Ammunition, you will take control of the cannon and a pet bar will appear (this also means hunters, frost mages and warlocks cannot use their pets). The pet bar looks like this: We will mostly use the ability #4 "Artillery on the warp gate". As soon as you take control of the cannon, use it. It is on a 15 second cooldown and you must use it everytime it is ready. That's the easiest way to succeed. Imps will come out of the warp-gate and suicide-bomb the cannon. Each time an imp manages to explode on the cannon, it will take out about 6-7% of the cannon's total health. So you can let about 15 imps reach the cannon, which is more than enough, since you should be able to kill most of them beore they reach it anyway. The imps' explosion is mitigated by armor, so warriors in def stance, bears and paladins shouldn't have much troubles surviving them. The imps have about 475HP. If you one-shot them, they don't explode. Basically it's simple, kill as many imps as you can, try to one-shot them, and keep firing the Artillery everytime it's up. Another tip, especially for melee classes, if you get low on health, you can back off and bandage/eat, the cannon can take a beating. The only real difficulty is when a dog spawns instead of an imp, dogs have a lot more HP than imps. Warlocks can banish the dog, but for other classes the best option would be to kill it fast and let the cannon take a beating from the imps. Tips: Mages: Scorch / Fireblast is enough to kill imps. Easy job. Shamans: One earth shock is enough. You can also drop a stoneclaw totem near the gate, the imps will suicide on it. You can also use your earth elemental if the coolodwn is ready, of course Rogues: If dagger specced, you can just stand infront of the cannon, wait for the imps to come and backstab them whenever you have enough energy. If not dagger specced, try to oneshot them with sinister strike, if you get low health, move away, bandage up, get back in. Warriors: Victory Rush! Paladins: Put on some +dmg gear, shock, exorcism, consecration, easy job for paladins. Druids: Balance druids, just moonfire away. Resto druids, you can heal the cannon with Rejuv and Lifebloom. Ferals, just go bear and ta take ke the explosions, swipe away. Back off and heal if needed. Warlocks: Searing Pain Hunters: Drop a frost trap in front of the gate at the start, then just bow shoot away Priests: You can either mind flay/shadow word: death the imps, or you can just keep the th cannon alive with Prayer of Mending, Renew and PowerWord:Shield When you're ready, clear around the cannon, get full HP/mana and right right-click click your Naturalized Ammunition. 6. Go to the northern cannon (62,60) and do the same thing. When done, call your druid dru and turn in [68] Fire At Will!,, get the follow up [68] The Hound-Master. 7. Clear to the demon portal northeast of the canon, and when only Baelmon the Hound-Master Hound is left, get full HP/mana, target Baelmon the Hound Master and use the Evergrove Wand. Wand Two treants will attack him, let them tank and help them kill Baelmon, just be careful not to pull aggro from them and it will be an easy fight. When Baelmon is defeated, hearthstone back to Evergrove. Turn in [68] The Hound-Master Master. We're done with Blade's Edge Mountains! Sell junk and repair. Mount up, follow the road east, and then north, all the way to Netherstorm. 1. In Netherstorm, while crossing the bridge, get the quest [68] Off To Area 52.

Turn in all the quests and get all the follow ups. ==Note== Green is for Scryers / Orange is for Aldors 1. Scryers: Go west and find Captain Arathyn. He's on a small hill with 2 ballistas at (28,65). Kill him and loot the B'Naar Personnel Roster. Aldors: Go west to Manaforge B'naar (27,65), kill 8 Sunfury Magisters and 8 Sunfury Bloodwarders. Both: While near Manaforge B'naar, if you find an Arcane Annihilator, try to kill it and loot an Annihilator Servo from it. It is elite ranged classes can kite it to death. For other classes, it might be more difficult, try to get help and kill one. If you can't find help, no worries for now, we'll have more opportunities to kill one later. 2. Go southeast to The Heap (29,78). Kill Zaxxis agents until you have 10 Zaxxis Insignias and gather up 10 pieces of Ethereal Technology 3. (Optional) While in the area, you might see Netherock, a big elite rock giant. He roams goes back and forth along the southern edge of this island, in between The Heap and the Arklon Ruins. Most classes can solo him. He's immune to movement impairing effects but doesn't hit that hard. He can also be kited to Area 52 where the guards will help you. At 75%/50%/25% HP he spawns an add, ignore them and just burn Netherock down. Just make sure you don't attack him if there's any thunder elemental or rock elemental near him, because they will link. 4. Ride back to Area 52, turn in all quests and get all follows ups. No map needed for the next circuit. 1. Scryers: Go to Manaforge B'naar (25,67). Kill Sunfury Magisters until one drops a Bloodgem Shard and also kill what you need for [68] High Value Targets. The warp-masters and warpengineers can mostly be found inside the building. The geologists are mostly on the southeastern side of the manaforge (26,70). Once you got a Bloodgem Shard, go near one of those big floating red crystals Use the Bloodgem Shard, this should complete [68] Blood Gem Crystals. Finish [68] High Value Targets too before you move on to the next paragraph. Aldors: Go back to Manaforge B'naar, clear the way till you're inside the manaforge. Find the controle console in the center of the room, it is a big purple crystal, can't miss it. Right-click it and you should get a quest complete message for [68] Naaru Technology. When done with that, get out of the Manaforge and go to the 4 pipelines around it and use your Warp-attuned Orb. Here are the locations of the 4 pipelines: o o o o Northern Pipeline (25,60) Eestern Pipeline (28,71) Southern Pipeline (20,71) Western Pipeline (20,67) Both: 2. (optional) Southeast of Manaforge B'Naar you should find a goblin at (26,77) with a quest [68] It's a Fel Reaver, But with Heart. Normally you can't solo it, but there's a trick. Here's how: go next to the Scrapped Fel Reaver and use the Fel Zapper, then go back quickly to the goblin. Wait there and do not attack the fel reaver or the zaxxis ambusher and after about 5-6 minutes they will despawn. Then just kill the Scrapped Fel Reaver and loot its heart. Simple enough? You can even kill the Zaxxis agents east of the goblin while waiting, since you need them for the next step, but don't go too far though. Another thing, you must not get out of combat once you've attacked the Fel Reaver, or it will reset the whole thing. The only problem with this strategy is that if anyone else attacks the fel reaver during that time, you won't complete the quest, so this is not really viable during peak time. However, during peak times you might find people to group with and do it. In any case, if you don't feel like waiting 5 minutes, just leave that quest for now, you can come back and do it at level 70. 3. Just a little southeast of the goblin tent you should find Warp-Raider Nesaad (28,79). Kill him. 4. Hearthstone back to Area 52, turn in all quests, get all the follow ups. 1.

[68] You're Hired! by looting Etherlithium Matrix Crystals which are scattered all across the ruins. Just let the robot go infront and take the first hit, he's pretty tough and you can let him tank stuff while looting crystals. Knowing that, get full HP/Mana and start the escort quest [68] Mark V is Alive!. After completing the escort, turn it in. 2. Go north until you hit the edge (31,51). You should find Phase Hunters and Nether Rays there. You have to kill both, however, you must use your Battery Recharging Blaster on the Phase Hunters when they are below 30% HP before killing them.

Keep doing this until you finish [68] Recharging the Batteries and [68] That Little Extra Kick. 3. You should be rather close to Manaforge B'naar after finishing the two quests above.

Hearthstone back to Area 52. Turn in the two quests, get the 2 follow ups: o o o [70] Kick Them While They're Down (scryers only) [70] Sunfury Briefings (aldors only) [70] Shutting Down Manaforge Duro Sell junk and repair. Go to the pit southeast of Area 52 and turn in [69] Invaluable Asset Zapping, get the follow up [68] Dr. Boom! You should be pretty close to level 70 now, but I'm gonna make a last little bonus circuit just in case. 1. Northeast of Area 52 you should find Dr. Boom (35,60). Find Boom's Doom in your inventory and put it on one off your hotkeyed buttons. You have to use those bombs to kill Dr.Boom while avoiding his bombs and his dynamties, but there's a trick to make it really easy. You just have to run in (while dodging bombs) and climb on top of that barrel, as shown on the picture below: You might die once while trying to get up there, but the graveyard is close, and you can easily climb on top of the barrel as a ghost and then resurre resurrect ct on top of the barrel safely. You'll be 100% safe once you're on this barrel. Each bomb you toss should take out about 20% of Dr.Boom's health, so you have to bomb him 5 or 6 times. Ranged classes can also nuke Dr.Boom down, but it takes a lot more time and it's less fun 2. Go east/southeast until you find a bridge going to the next island, then go northeast to the Ecodome Midrealm, and keep going east/northeast till you find Midrealm Post (47,57). Turn in the quests you have and get all the available quests. 3. First,go directly northeast of the camp and you'll find Diagnostic Equipments (48,55). Go back to the camp, turn in [68] Run a Diagnostic!, get the follow up [68] Deal With the Saboteurs. 4. Now do the following things, all of this is at the same place inside the dome: o o o Kill Ripfang Lynx on your way and loot their pelts Kill Barbscale Crocolisks, they are in the pond in the middle of the dome. Gather 15 Ivory Bells When you've finished all 3 quests, go back to Midrealm Post, turn them in and get all the follow ups. 5. Go southeast, just outside of the dome you should find a camp with Gan'arg Engineers and Mo'arg Doomsmithes in it (49,59). Kill as much as needed for [69] In A Scrap With The Legion and also gather 10 Rel Reaver Parts, which are scattered all across this camp. Go back to Midrealm Post, turn in and get the follow ups. 6. Go east/southeast to Manaforge Duro (57,64). Outside of it, you'll find camps of blood elves. Look on the floor for Boxes of Surveying Equipment. Scyers Kill 8 Sunfury Conjurers, 6 Sunfury Bowmen and 4 Sunfury Centurions. Aldors Kill Sunfury Bowmen and Sunfury Centurion until one drops a Sunfury Military Briefing. Kill Sunfury Conjurers until one drops a Sunfury Arcane Briefing. Both Centurions are mostly found guarding the gate to the manaforge. You should also find Summoner Kanthin in the same area, keep killing elves around here until you find him. Kill him and loot the Stone of Glacius. Summon Archmage Vargoth, turn in the quest and get the follow up [68] Ar'kelos the Guardian. 7. Further up at the next camp just south of this one you should find a named bowman called Master Daellis Dawnstrike (57,66). Kill him. 8. Go inside Manaforge Duro. Clear the way to the southeastern wing (60,68) and kill Overseer Athanel, loot the the Duro Access Crystal. Go to the Duro Controle Console, start the emergency shutdown and kill the technicians as they come, you know the drill. If you still need some Boxes of Surveying Equipment, gather them now. Then exit manaforge duro through the eastern gate. 9. Mount up, ride east until you find Cosmowrench (65,67), get the new flight path and the quest [69] Bloody Imp-ossible! 10. Go north of Cosmowrench where you should find a lot of Warp Chasers (66,63). Rightclick Zeppit's Crystal and start killing Warp Chasers. You must be very close (almost in melee range) to the warp chasers are they die, or the imp won't gather their blood. Keep doing this until you have 8 Warp Chaser Blood. Go back to Cosmowrench, turn in the quest. 11. Hearthstone back to Area 52. Turn in all the quests, get the follow ups. Don't forget to turn in [68] Dr.Boom at the pit southeast of Area 52. Congratulations on level 70! I hope you enjoyed this guide, now I leave the rest up to you. I highly recommend finishing all the quests in Netherstorm and doing all those in Shadowmoon Valley. This should get you your 280% speed flying mount, or at least close to it. See you in Northrend for the next chapter! -Jame
