    Fly to Thrallmar.

  3. Turn in Journey to Thrallmar and get the follow-up Report to Nazgrel.

    Turn in Report to Nazgrel. Get the follow-up quests as well as the other quests in town:

    • Bonechewer Blood

    • I Work...For the Horde!

    Set your Hearthstone to Thrallmar.

  4. Head east to Sergeant Shatterskull and turn in Eradicate the Burning Legion. Get the follow-up Felspark Ravine.

  5. Head northeast and kill 6 Infernal Warbringer, 4 Flamewalker Imp, 1 Dreadcaller.

  6. Ride southwest and kill Bonechewer Orcs for Bonechewer Blood and collect Salvaged Metal and Salvaged Wood.

  7. Head west to the other orc camp and finish gathering 12 Bonechewer Blood and collecting 8 Salvaged Metal and 8 Salvaged Wood.

  8. Return to Thrallmar.

  1. At Thrallmar, turn in Bonechewer Blood and I Work...for the Horde! and get the follow-ups:

    • Apothecary Zelana
    • Burn it Up... For the Horde!

  2. Ride east to Sergeant Shatterskull and turn in Felspark Ravine. Get the follow-up Forward Base: Reaver's Fall.

  3. Ride southeast to Reaver's Fall. Turn in Apothecary Zelana and Forward Base: Reaver's Fall. Get the follow-up quests:

    • Spinebreaker Post
    • Disrupt Their Reinforcements

  4. Clear all the demons on your way southeast to Portal Xilus. With 4 Demonic Rune Stones looted from the demons, go up to the portal and disable it.

  5. Clear your way to Portal Kruul. With 4 Demonic Rune Stones looted from the demons, go up to the portal and disable it.

  6. Return to Reaver's Fall. Turn in Disrupt Their Reinforcements and get the follow-up Mission: Gateways Murketh and Shaadraz.

    • Talk to Wing Commander Brack and choose the Bombing Mission option. Use your Seaforium PU-36 Explosive Nether Modulator and aim them at Gateway Shaadraz and Gateway Murketh when you fly over them.

    • Then, turn in Mission: Gateways Murketh and Shaadraz once done. Get the follow-up quests:

      • Return to Thrallmar
      • Mission: The Abyssal Shelf

    • Talk to Wing Commander Brack again and this time have him send you to The Abyssal Shelf. Use your Area 52 Special to bomb the targets. Use the bomb on cooldown and aim carefully for the best chance to completing the goal in one run - if not, just run it again and finish the monsters off.

    • When done, turn in Mission: The Abyssal Shelf.

    • Finally, talk to Wing Commander Brack and have him send you to Spinebreaker Post.

  1. At Spinebreaker Post, turn in Spinebreaker Post. Get the Flight Path. Pick up all the quests in the area:

    • Boiling Blood
    • Wanted: Worg Master Kruush
    • Make Them Listen
    • Preparing the Salve
    • The Warp Rifts

  2. Clear your way northwest. Gather Hellfire Spineleaf on your way while clearing all the wildlife around the area.

  3. Head northwest to the Western Cannon and use the Flaming Torch to burn it.

  4. Head east to the Eastern Cannon and use the Flaming Torch to burn it.

  5. Clear your way back southeast towards Zeth'Gor. Finish gathering 12 Hellfire Spineleaf. If you haven't reached Level 59 yet, then kill the wildlife until you are level 59. Being 59 will make the later quests much easier. The monsters are easy here and the experience and your level should come quick.

  1. Head southeast into Zeth'Gor. Clear all the Bleeding Hollow Orcs in the way. Note that there are many orcs - but it is worthwhile to kill ALL the orcs for two reasons: the experience is necessary, and is much safer since there are many patrols. Don't try to avoid the orcs in this entire area - actively seek and kill any that are in the area for both the experience and to reduce the chances that the an orc patrol will kill you.

    Clear your way towards the Stables and kill Worg Master Kruush and loot his head. By the time you reach the stables, you should also have collected 12 Bleeding Hollow Blood.

  2. Clear your way out and to the Cursed Cauldron outside the Zeth'Gor gate. Each time you click the cauldron, scarabs will spawn - I found the fastest (a little dangerous, but doable and much faster) way to do this was to just click the cauldron a lot of times quickly - about 6 times - then run away and wait for the scarabs to despawn. Afterwards, come back and click the cauldron 6 more times for 12 Boiled Blood, then run away.

  3. Return to Spinebreaker Post and turn in your quests:

    • Boiling Blood
    • Wanted: Worg Master Kruush
    • Preparing the Salve

    Get the follow-up quests:

    • Apothecary Antonivich
    • Investigate the Crash
    • Zeth'Gor Must Burn!
    • The Eyes of Grillok

Then, Hearth to Thrallmar.

  2. Apothecary Antonivich is in the northwestern tower at Thrallmar. Go to him and turn in Apothecary Antonivich. Get the follow-up Burden of Souls.

  3. Clear your way up northeast to Forge Camp: Mageddon. Kill 10 Gan'arg Servant and Razorsaw. Loot Razorsaw for the Head of Forgefiend Razorsaw and the Burning Legion Missive, which starts the quest Vile Plans.

    • Then, return to Thrallmar. Turn in Forge Camp: Mageddon and Vile Plans. Get the follow-up Cannons of Rage.

    • Again, return to Forge Camp: Mageddon. Kill 3 Fel Cannon MKI situated near the edges of the camp.

    • Then, return to Thrallmar. Turn in Cannons of Rage and get the follow-up Doorway to the Abyss.

  4. Once those previous quest chain steps are done, clear your way northwest to Invasion Point: Annihilator. Clear your way up to, then kill, Warbringer Arix'Amal for the Burning Legion Gate Key.

    Walk up to the portal in the camp and click it to shut down the gate.

  5. Ride around the cliff southwest to Foreman Razelcraz. Get Outland Sucks!

  6. Head southwest and pick up 6 Shredder Spare Parts. Also, keep killing the Crust Bursters until you get a rare random drop, the Eroded Leather Case. The item starts the quest Missing Missive.

    • Then, return to Foreman Razelcraz and turn in Outland Sucks! and get the follow-up How to Serve Goblins.

  7. Head southwest to the three cages. Clear all the orcs around and head to Manni's Cage and Save Manni.

  8. Clear your way to Moh and Jakk and save them. Again, make sure to clear a wide path of orcs for experience and safety.

    • Then, return to Foreman Razelcraz and turn in How to Serve Goblins and get the follow-up Shizz Work. Use the Felhound Whistle immediately right next to Razelcraz.

  9. Go northwest and kill Helboars, then right click the poo that is left behind. Keep at it until you find the Shredder Keys.

    • Then, return to Foreman Razelcraz and turn in Shizz Work and get the follow-up Beneath Thrallmar.

  10. Go to the end of the mine and clear your way through the tunnels. Kill Urga'zz at the end of the mine.

    • Then, return to Foreman Razelcraz and turn in Beneath Thrallmar.

  11. Return to Thrallmar. Turn in Doorway to the Abyss. Get the new quests:

    • The Agony and the Darkness
    • The Assassin
    • Falcon Watch

Level 60

At this point, you should be level 60 - and you can fly! At Thrallmar, learn Expert Riding from your trainer and buy your flying mount. Now you can directly fly from location to location, saving a lot of time while traveling!

The cost of the riding skill is 225g, and the flying mount costs 50g with a possible faction reputation discount. That's a decent chunk of gold...or maybe not much at all if you've been following the Gold Guide. If you have been, you might be in the thousands of gold right now - and you'll be on track for the Epic Flying Mount coming up at level 70 with the cost of 5,000g.

  1. Fly to Spinebreaker Post.

  2. Ride west to the Expedition Armory. Kill 6 Unyielding Sorcerer, 8 Unyielding Knight, 12 Unyielding Footman. You should get a random drop A Mysterious Tome during this time from the mobs - get the quest Decipher the Tome from it.

  3. Ride northwest to the Zeppelin Crash and turn in Investigate the Crash. Get the quests there: In Case of Emergency... and Ravager Egg Roundup.

  4. Ride southwest to Razorthorn Trail and kill the ravagers to get to the 12 Ravager Egg lying around the ground. The ravagers also drop them.

  5. Ride southwest into Terrokar Forest.

  1. Follow the road west to Shattrath City. Get the Flight Point.
    Head to the center of the city and take the portal to a Capital City. Train your skills there.

  3. Fly northeast to The Warp Fields. Kill Voidwalkers for 40 Void Ridge Soul Shards.

  4. Fly southwest into Zeth'Gor. Kill the Bleeding Hollow Peons for their torches and make your way to the Forge. Before you light the torches, clear your way slightly north to the Eastern Hovel - kill the monsters around there. Then, go back to the Forge and light four of them. The next steps need to be done fairly quickly. (Note: since you can now use flying mounts to travel within, this area is not as deadly. Still be careful when travelling from location to location even while you can fly though, because this is a densely packed area).

    Note that for all the burn locations, you can burn the buildings from a decent distance away from the building, so try clearing just near a building instead of inside and then using the torch to burn the buildings.

    NOTE: though you may find an Eye of Grillok early and be tempted to use Zezzak's Shard to capture it, DON'T until the end - once you capture one, you will aggro everything.

  5. Head north to the Eastern Hovel and burn it.

  6. Clear your way south to the Stable and burn it.

  7. Clear your way southwest to the Western Hovel and burn it.

  8. Clear your way east to the Barracks and burn it.

    • Finally, now is the time to search out an Eye of Grillok. Use Zezzak's Shard to capture it then quickly mount up and run out of the area. You will aggro a lot of mobs due to the debuff of the eye.

  9. Ride back to Spinebreaker Post.

  1. At Spinebreaker Post, Walk up to Zezzak's Cauldron in order to complete the objective for The Eyes of Grillok. Turn in your quests:

    • Once done, return to Spinebreaker Post and Fly to Thrallmar.

  1. Fly to Thrallmar.
    Turn in A Burden of Souls - don't get the follow-up The Demoniac Scryer.

  2. Ride west to the Pools of Aggonar. If anybody is interested in doing the group quest Cruel's Intentions, that's one quest worth doing since it gives a lot of experience, its in the area, and it gives a nice quest reward - if not though if nobody's around or interested, just skip it. You will get one more chance later, see if you can pick up a group then.

    At the pools, go to Arelion's Knapsack. Loot it and open it to get Arelion's Journal. Around the same area, kill Terrorfiends to get 6 Felblood Sample and kill at least 10 Terrorfiends.
