📜 Guide
- Time to explore somewhere new! Head to the zeppelin tower outside of Orgrimmar and take the one that goes to Undercity. Head into the capital city of the Undead, the Undercity, and explore its services, especially the flightpath, before you leave.
- The Undercity Weapon Master trains Two-Handed Swords, One-Handed Swords, Daggers, and Crossbows for 10 silver, as well as Polearms for 1 gold. Only purchase what you need for now, depending on what weapon types your class uses. Daggers and One-Handed Swords can be quite useful for casters as well as melee classes.
- Grab The Book of Ur then head back outside Undercity and westward to Silverpine Forest and the Sepulcher. Grab Arugal Must Die, Deathstalkers in Shadowfang, and Journey to Hillsbrad Foothills from the Sepulcher.
- Head out from the Sepulcher south-east towards Hillsbrad Foothills. Keep heading east towards the settlement of Tarren Mill. Kill anything in your way for experience.
- Once you make it to Tarren Mill, grab the flight path. Hand in Journey to Hillsbrad Foothills and grab the quests around town: Elixir of Pain, Elixir of Suffering, Battle of Hillsbrad, and any others.
- Head out west towards Hillsbrad Fields first and take out any Starving Mountain Lions, Vicious Gray Bears, and Forest Moss Creepers you see along the way for Elixir of Suffering and Elixir of Pain.
- After completing the first quest of the Battle of Hillsbrad quest chain, both Elixir quests, and Blood of Innocents, you're ready for level 24.
