📜 Guide

  1. After you get your level 18 skills, try getting a Wailing Caverns group going. It's worth it with the dungeon quests: Trouble at the Docks and Smart Drinks from Ratchet, Serpentbloom and Leaders of the Fang from Thunder Bluff, and Deviate Hides and Deviate Eradication from above the dungeon entrance (jump down from the mountain above).
  2. Run Wailing Caverns once or twice and that should get you to 19 or even 20. Try finding a group with the group finder tool with 'i'.
  3. If you aren't able to find a group or help for Wailing Caverns, I would use this opportunity to quest in Stonetalon Mountains more. Grab Deepmoss Spider Eggs from Ratchet and Goblin Invaders at the entrance to the mountains. Kaya's Alive will also take you to Sun Rock Retreat. Get the flight path and any quests at your level range, save the higher level ones for later. Go east to the Windshear Crag area to work on Deepmoss Spider Eggs and kill Venture Co. Loggers for Goblin Invaders.
  4. Ashenvale is another good place to quest and grind at this level.
