The journey to 1－60

Ill just start a horde list and other people add to it as I'm by no means all knowing. This list might be biased as Im a rogue and I solo alot so someone with more experience feel free to edit, plus im only 43 and I play on a PVP server so your mileage may vary. (Plus my level ratings might be a bit off for some as I keep my gear top notch as I can and Im not new to the game by any means)

Level 1-5 - Newbie Area

Level 5-15 - Brill[note] - Mulgore - Durotar

Im biased here, Ive made.. at least 12 Troll/Orc characters and as many times as Ive done the Troll quest I find them slightly more difficult and time consuming then the Undead ones in Brill. When Retail came my guild and friends of orc/troll persuasion, made it to about 8 as a group and migrated to Brill till 13 then came back to XR. I just find it alot easier plus the runs are usually shorter between objectives, plus who doesn't like killing humans and stealing pumpkins, that never gets old heh.


 * I just hate Durotar, its ugly, the quests bore me as Ive done them at least 8 times each sue me*

If you are going to continue in Durotar, make sure you acquire ALL the Senjin village AND Razorhill quests if your level 8, plus if your going for mining and are going to use firstaid you can grab both in Razor as well. The raptor egg quest stacks with tigerskins, trolls, zalazane, mishra's skull and saves you alot of back and forth.

Level 15-20 - Crossroads & Ratchet Quests - Silverpine - Instance:Ragefire Chasm

Again personal preferrence, Silverpine is tougher post 15 I find but its alot more compact saving travel time. Overall wealth is higher in Sp as your killing humans alot. Crossroads has more differentiated quests the downside is it takes more time to run between town so stacking is almost a pre-req so do your homework if you dont want to run for 20 minutes and waste your time.

RFC is the first Instance horde players can enter and it has 6 quests total, also very good xp there. Id recommend that if you have friends and/or the patience for pickup groups as grinding in instances yields more wealth over the levels from increased drops then regular questing.

Also for RFC, delivering the Orders to Nazgrel by Thrall, speak to Thrall. Eliminating the burning blade fellows leads up to one of the RFC quests and if you dont do the intro quests you wont get this last RFC quest(I know, I didnt care to do the Intro heh).

Level 20=30 - Stonetalon Mountains - Ashenvale [23+ for solo] - Hillsbrad[note] - Thousand Needles [26ish for solo] - Instance: Wailing Caverns [18-25] - Instance: Shadowfang Keep [22-28] - Instance: Blackfathom Deep [24-30] - Grinding Leather: WC [23-25] Crocodiles are NonElite, right near the entrance so easy to stealth too, plus i forget what level Krusk the Turtle is who drops the shell shield. Horde players should probably head into STM and get the flightpath for Sun Rock Retreat as its one of the jump off points to Shadowprey Village (that and Thunder Bluff). Ashenvale is a touch difficult as the mobs are packed together off the roadways and alliance travel the roads so your 50/50 on getting hit while running around on the roads the closer you get to Astranaar.

I spent alot of time grinding in WC during OB, got a Deviate Scale Belt made (love that thing), the 10 Slot bag, the 15 dps mace, almost a complete set of armor of the fang for a "Im feeling purple" mood and a Wingblade, its just a good place to xp.

SFK is a must for any rogue and casters you might know. Meteor Shard was used by myself till I got my Swine Tusk shank to go with my Zealots Blade. Arugals Robe and Belt are extremely good stats for casters and several 40 Mages I know stil l use the belt for the Int bonus (thats it though).

Hillsbrad is a favorite place for 30-40's Alliance to hangout and gank lowbies as there quests usually collide with ours and for example, the 25 guy killing bears for tongues in the same field as the 32 guy killing yeti's, I'm sure someone's going to die and I'll have to wager even odds on the higher level winning so you have been warned, solo there at your own risk.

Blackfathom is harder then SFK but it also has higher rewards and a good stealther who can take out a 28 Caster Elemental can get to the Fathom Core solo.

Level 30-37 (This section is freshest on my mind as I got my mount Friday and im almost 44 as of last night.) - Thousand Needles & Shimmering Flats (East end of Thousand Needles)[28-34] - Alterac Mountains [33ish-43] - Stranglethorn Vale [PVPSERVER NOTE] - Desolace [32+] - Arathi Highlands [33+] - Badlands [35+] - Instance: Razorfen Kraul [30+, recommend 32 in groups, less the better your gear is and your group] - Elites: Dungarok [30+] - Grinding/Cash [Rock Elementals 38-40]


 * PVPSERVER NOTE (Disregard if your on RP or Regular) Stranglethorn is highly populated with Alliance usually on any medium to high pop server as it has very good quests and rewards for the level. That being said you have been warned, easiest way to get there is the Zepplin from UC or Org, opposite side from the one that transports you to UC/Org from whichever area your at.

There's a flightpath in BootyBay and Id suggest getting it at 40+ if your on a PVP server, or going at an offtime because you can NOT rely on the BootyBay Buccaneers to protect you from 20+ Alliance hoodlums pk'ing you and camping your corpse. (Actually happened to one of my good friends, made me laugh)

Desolace, my least favorite zone post 20+ in the game as its sparse and ugly, thus the name. It has some fairly interesting quests if you like killing centaurs and will recieve a 40+ instance before too long.

Shimmering Flats = Good place to xp about 33 the scorpians/turtles/basalisks/vultures range from 30-33 and 35 for the basalisks. Good place to grind Xp/Cash is the southend where the basalisks spawn is at. Animal Parts + Leather will speed up your mount acquisition.

South of the Flats is Tanaris and Gadgetzan is directly across the border with the FlightMaster on the Flats side of town. Gadgetzan has a bank and an AH but, beware as its usually Alliance Favored and on PVP servers its a good way to get randomly ganked by a 58 Gnome warrior in TR whose a dork (didnt happen to me I swear)

If you can reach the Badlands via a patient higher level friend whose willing to walk you the LONG trek from either Grom'Gol, Stranglethorn or (God forbid) Hammerfall, Arathi Highlands you will be rewarded with the halfway flightpath for the eastern continent allowing you to reach Grom'Gol from UC as well as UldaMan (40+ instance) and several higher level zones for later.

Alterac is a continuation of alot of Hillsbrad quests and its right north of Tarren Mill, PVP servers are a tossup whether you will be battling constantly or never, luck of the draw.

Razorfen Kraul is a good instance, pretty short has several good drops, the ones im familiar with are corpsemaker and swinetusk shank. Corpsemaker drops from one of the minibosses and is a GOOD 2h weapon, swinetusk shank is also a good dagger from another miniboss. You will most likely be redo'ing this instance as you kill the boss mob, get a note, take it to TB/UC(forget which), kill him again for his "You killed Me Proof" Item and return to the same guy. There's an escort quest in RFK and I warn EVERYONE who does it, DO NOT LEAD THE ESCORT he runs he doesn't walk, sometimes this is the first escort folks do where the mob moves fast and they try to lead the guy and clear the way, he'll run on by you leaving you fighting. He must be allowed to aggro mobs, he regens quickly and can handle himself but you HAVE to let him acquire aggro or he will walk right past the mobs while you fight and he moves fast enough that you will fail the quest.

LEVEL 38-43 - Elite Quests: Arathi - Swamp of Sorrows - Feralas - Dustwallow - Instance: Scarlet Monestary - Instance: Uldaman - Instance: RazorFen Downs - Grinding: Ogres [40 reg - 47 elites]

Feralas is good for skinning at 40 if you pick your targets carefully with 40 wolves in the front to 51 in the back, with bears/spryte dragons, apes and hippogryphs in there as well. Dustwallow is packed with mobs, stealthing spiders, elite firekin, elite crocs definately take a party if you want to wander through there non-stealthed. Swamp of Sorrows has part of the Artisan Cooking quest, zesty clam meat off the eastcoast in the 43-44 crawlers. SM is a good instance ranking from 32-42 you could xp soley there and come out quite well off, especially if your a mail user post 40, the scarlet set is decent and Herod's Shoulder looks nice. Uldaman is a nice change of pace but its got several dwarf only quests in it so expect nominal resistance entering the instance on PVP. The Stormgarde quests Im not fond off as its not truly an instance and with an Alliance presence its too easy to get your run borked, non PVP shouldn't care do it if you want too. RFD, the public intro part is 34-35 Elites and isn't too hard, it's a decent farming spot for a rogue wanting to pickup lots of silk and decent change. The instance however, is 40+ and rather hard for an unprepared group. Numerous elites will attack your party as well as 37 nonelites for extra damage thrown in while your fighting there heavier cousins so take adequate CC.

LEVEL 44-47 - Tanaris - Searing Gorge - Hinterlands - Stranglethorn - Instance: Zul'Farrak

Start at these places, you can continue on here and spread out to others as you advance in your quest strings. Ive just started doing Tanaris quests and the southern end of Tanaris is a deathtrap to me at the moment so after mapping it on my mount im staying away till higher lvl. That and the Acquire Specimens quest I really despise, I spent 30 minutes getting 4 good samples, needed 24 good, got annoyed, dumped it all, ran off to gather ornaments while I looked for Gust Elementals to get my Breath of Wind for Elemental Leatherworking. Stranglethorn, if you did the catpart gather quests there is a 46 elite cat southeast of Grom, the quest reward for killing him is a nice gun/bow choice.

LEVEL 48-60 - Blasted Lands - Ungoro Crater - Silithus - Western Plaguelands - Burning Steppes - Instance: Temple of Atal'Hakkar [52+] - Instance: Blackrock Depths - Instance: Blackrock Spire

Thats about all I know off the end area's, I have friends who spend all there time exping in Atal'Hakkar at 55+ in Swamp of Sorrows, Ungoro is 50+, never stepped into Silithus haven't had the urge, same with the rest of these zones I just know the general level of the quests. Someone else add to this and make it better thank you!

NOTE: You will probably get ganked repeatedly in Hinterland, Alterac, Hillsbrad, Stranglethorn so expect to get camped and deal with res sickness.
