📜 Guide

  1. After purchasing level 22 skills, the goal is to get one more level from zones we've already been exploring: The Barrens, Stonetalon Mountains, and Ashenvale, before discovering Hillsbrad Foothills.
  2. If you haven't last level, finish the following Barrens quests around Camp Taurajo: Enraged Thunder Lizards, Cry of the Thunderhawk, Lakota'mani, Consumed by Hatred, Tribes at War, and Blood Shards of Agamaggan.
  3. Finish up any Stonetalon Mountain quests for the Windshear Crag area. The Windshear Mine is an underrated place to level off of the Windshear Kobolds there. Only do Gerenzo's Orders if you have help.
  4. Ashenvale also has enemies at this level, mostly the Wrathtail Naga on the west coast of the zone, which is also the entrance to the dungeon Blackfathom Deeps. It might be difficult to find a group for this dungeon and is recommended for level 26.
  5. Make the journey to Hillsbrad Foothills in the Eastern Kingdoms, which is detailed next level. Take the Zeppelin outside of Orgrimmar to the Undercity first.
