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

  2. Ride west to the Fel Orc Corpse. Turn in The Assassin and get the follow-up A Strange Weapon.

  3. Ride southwest to Falcon Watch. Get the Flight Path. Turn in Falcon Watch and get all the quests in the area - your quest log for Hellfire Peninsula should now hold a healthy 15 quests:

    • Hellfire Fortifications (Optional)
    • Helping the Cenarion Post
    • Missing Missive
    • Report to Zurai
    • The Agony and the Darkness

    Go outside and turn in The Warchief's Mandate and get the follow-up A Spirit Guide.

  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.

  3. Ride southwest again to the Fel Orc Corpse. Use your Ancestral Spirit Wolf Totem and follow it - follow closely so that you get quest credit.

  1. Hearth to Thrallmar.

  2. If there has been any interest in the group quest Cruel's Intentions, grab someone and complete it at this step.

  4. Ride southeast into the Great Fissure. Go to the Eastern Beacon and activate it.

  5. Clear your way into the cave and get the Drycap Mushroom inside. (Note: Blacktalon the Savage is also in here. He's difficult solo, but you can give it a shot, or if you're grouped with somebody, take him down for the quest Wanted: Blacktalon the Savage.)

  6. Go to the Central Beacon and activate it.

  7. Go to the Western Beacon and activate it.

  8. Ride southwest into the Den of Haal'esh. Clear a path through to the arakkoa and look for Kaliri Nests - click them to spawn Kaliri Hatchling. When you spawn a Female Kaliri Hatchling, use your Empty Birdcage on it.

  10. Clear your to the Wounded Blood Elf Pilgrim. Accept her escort quest The Road to Falcon Watch - fairly standard escort quest with an ambush at the exit - let her tank and fight the mobs one at a time.

  6. Ride southwest into the Ruins of Sha'naar.



Kill Illidari Taskmasters for 5 Demonic Essence during all the next steps. Note that while Dreghood Brutes will attack with them, once the taskmaster is dead, the brutes stop attacking, so just focus on taskmasters.

  1. There are three huts around the area, go to any and pick up the quest Naladu.

  2. Head south up the stairs and avoid Arzeth the Merciless. Take the east path and turn in Naladu and get the follow-up A Traitor Among Us.

    • Then, turn in Administrating the Salve.

  5. Hearth to Falcon Watch. Turn in your quests:

    • Source of the Corruption
    • A Pilgrim's Plight
    • The Mistress Revealed and get the follow-up Arelion's Mistress

    With the Cenarion Spirits you purchased earlier, go to Viera Sunwhisper and complete Life's Finer Pleasures. Follow her outside and use the Scroll of Retribution on her. Then, return to Magistrix Carinda and turn in Arelion's Mistress.

If you have a partner to do the Raging Colossus questline with... (optional - if not, just skip on to Zangarmarsh!)

  1. Kill 5 Raging Colossus. Note that whenever damaged to a certain point, it splits off a Raging Shardling. Kill the shardling, then move back to the colossus, otherwise if you just stay on the colossus, the three spawned shardlings could overwhelm you. You will also get a Crimson Crystal Shard which starts Crimson Crystal Clue.

  2. Return to the Cenarion Post and turn in:

    • Colossal Menace
    • Crimson Crystal Clue and get the follow-up The Earthbinder, which can be immediately turned in. It will spawn a colossus, kill it as you did the raging colossus before. Get the follow-up, Natural Remedies.

  3. Return to the red crystal and clear all the way north to behind the crystal. Make sure to clear all colossus anywhere near the runed area! Use the Seed of Revitalization on the runed area to summon Goliathon who is just like a Colossus, except with a huge knockback which will send you flying - make sure to have your back facing an empty area.

  4. Return to Cenarion Post and turn in Natural Remedies.

That concludes Hellfire Peninsula. Onwards to Zangarmarsh!
