📜 Guide

  1. Try to run Shadowfang Keep. It's a good dungeon overall for the quests, experience, and useful blue (rare) quality loot drops, especially from Archmage Arugal. Hand in The Book of Ur and Arugal Must Die for a blue (rare) ring. Blackfathom Depths is another new dungeon option to try at this level.
  2. Work on Southern Barrens quests. Hand in Weapons of Choice and Betrayal from Within at Camp Taurajo. Fly to the Crossroads to hand in Egg Hunt and the second part of Betrayal from Within at the Crossroads.
  3. Once again travel to Hillsbrad Foothills and keep working on the quests in that area. You'll perhaps be on the Hillsbrad Apprentice Blacksmith part of Battle of Hillsbrad.
  4. Another option for this level is Stonetalon Mountains. Grab Cycle of Rebirth, Elemental War, and Cenarius' Legacy which will take you north to kill the Sons and Daughters of Cenarius.

💡 Tips

  • Can train gathering professions to Artisan (300)
  • As you travel and discover new towns check for a Trade Supplies vendor. They sell limited stock trade patterns that rotate. Use them for your own profession training, or sell them at the Auction House
  • I don't recommend trying the Town Hall area of Battle of Hillsbrad at this level, as the enemies are level 26+ and tightly packed into close quarters. You can easily chain aggro the whole room
