Jame's Horde Leveling Guide - Grizzly Hills (75-77)
(3 votes)
Journey from Grizzly Hills to Zul'Drak
Introduction
This guide is made for FAST leveling through the use of Optimized Quest Circuits. With this guide, questing will be very efficient and you'll not waste any second running around and trying to figure out in which order to do your quests. Follow each instruction carefully and you will see for yourself. The quest choices and order to do them are optimal so that you run as few as possible while doing the most possible, turning several quests at the same time. It will be like grinding, because you'll be killing stuff almost non-stop, besides you'll also be completing a bunch of quests at the same time!
NOTE: Following this guide will get you the Quest Achievement for Grizzly Hills: Fo' Grizzle My Shizzle. In fact, 100% of the quests of Grizzly Hills are included in the guide, or at least mentioned as optional.
The only one I didn't include is a daily quest called [74] Riding the Red Rocket. For two reasons:
1. This quest is only available if your faction to control the Venture Bay lighthouse.
2. It's rather annoying to do it without a flying mount. I recommend skipping this quest while leveling up and coming back to do it at level 80 and once you have your flying mount.
Everything described in this guide can be done solo (beside when I say otherwise). You can, of course, follow this guide while duoing, grouping, it's not a problem, it works too.
DISCLAIMER: This guide does NOT take into account tradeskills, class specific quests or PvP. It's 100% focused on getting the most experience possible in the shortest possible time while doing a lot of quests and enjoying as much content as possible. Any race/class combination can do this guide. Any complaints about PvP, tradeskills, or class specific issues will be ignored.
Basic rules
- Spend your talent points so that you kill things as fast as possible. (e.g: Priest should specialize in Shadow Talents, Warriors in Arms/Fury, etc.
- Don't waste your time trying to find groups for questing, you can solo everything that is described in this guide unless I say otherwise. Only group with someone when it's not gonna be a waste of time (e.g: meeting the person at the other end of the zone to show him the way to where your quest is, that is a waste of time)
- Try to always log out in an inn or in one of the major cities when you take a break.
Useful Addons
To get the most out of my guide, you should get an addon which displays coordinates, because I use them to describe locations in my guide (x,y). You can use any addon you like, but here's a very simple one I use.
Recommended
- DMiniCoords - A simple box which displays coordinates, left-click it to move it where you like.
Optional
Below is a list of other addons I use, this is 100% optional though, it's mostly for people who are curious to know which addons I use:
- Bartender4 - A great action bar addon.
- X-Perl UnitFrames - Very nice, highly customizable unit frames.
- Quartz - The best casting bar addon out there, imo.
- Scrolling Combat Text - I just don't like the default UI Floating Combat Text.
Side Note: In case you don't know how to install add-ons, simply download an addon from one of the links above and unzip it. Then drag the unziped folder in your Addon folder (full path is c:\\Program Files\\World of Warcraft\\Interface\\Addons). Then, restart World of Warcraft and it should be working.
If it isn't working, you might need to log out to your character selection screen and click on "Addons" in the lower-left corner. Tick the box that says "Load out of date Addons". Re-launch WoW.

The Guide:
If you followed my previous guide in Dragonblight, you should have the following two quests:
- [75] Into the Breach!
- [74] To Conquest Hold, But Be Careful!
If you don't have them, it's not a big deal, but they're easily attainable. Just go to my Dragonblight guide and search for them with your browser's search function (CTRL + F).
Time to go to Grizzly Hills.
Fly to Venomspite.
Ride east until you enter Grizzly Hills.
In Grizzly Hills, ride east to Conquest Hold (21,63).
Turn in [74] To Conquest Hold, But Be Careful, get [74] The Conqueror's Task.
Go to the inn and make it your home location.
Turn in [74] The Conqueror's Task.
Get all the available quests from Conquest Hold BESIDES [75] The Magical Kingdom of Dalaran:
- [74] A Show of Strength
- [74] The Flamebinders' Secret
- [74] Gray Worg Hides
- [74] Supplemental Income
Get the new flight path.
==Note== Kill Graymist Hunters on the way.
1. Get out of Conquest Hold by the southern gate.
Ride east to to Raider Captain Kronn (26.5,67).
==Warning== This is a PvP Daily Quest. It's very quick, easy and rewarding, and there most likely won't even be any PvP involved. So I suggest doing it. However, if you don't want to have anything to do with PvP, you can skip this and go to the next circuit. This quest doesn't count towards the zone quest achievement, but it does count for the Daily PvP Quest Achievement: Grizzled Veteran. So it's up to you!
Get the quest [74] Blackriver Brawl.
2. Go to the isle northeast and kill 10 Alliance Units or Players.
Go back to Raider Captain Kronn, turn in [74] Blackriver Brawl.
1. Southeast you should see a bridge.
Cross it and then go northeast to an area with a lot of Tallhorn Stags (34,65).
Stay there and kill Tallhorn Stags until you finish [74] Supplemental Income.
2. Ride southwest to Voldrune (31,75). Two objectives here:
- Kill 12 Dragonflayer Huscarls
- Kill Dragonflayer Flamebinders until you've looted 3 Flame-Imbued Talismans
3. Go northwest and cross the same bridge again.
Kill Graymist Hunters until you finish [74] Gray Worg Hides on your way back to Conquest Hold.
In Conquest Hold, turn in:
- [74] Supplemental Income
- [74] Gray Worg Hides, get [74] A Minor Substitution
- [74] A Show of Strength
- [74] The Flamebinders' Secret, get [74] The Thane of Voldrune
==Warning== PvP Daily Quest Circuit. Skip this circuit and the next one if you don't want any PvP. However please note that [74] Seeking Solvent counts for the zone quest achievement. Those quests are really quickly done and give 20K XP each, so I recommend doing them, even if you dislike pvp.
1. Ride southwest to Venture Bay. The horde quest hub is on the western side of Venture Bay (11,77).
Get the 4 daily pvp quests:
- [74] Seeking Solvent
- [74] Keep Them at Bay!
- [74] Smoke 'Em Out
- [74] Crush Captain Brightwater!
1. Go east to the area north of the docks in venture bay.
Enter the first building you encounter at (14,77).
Inside the building you should see Venture Co. Stragglers.
Use the Smoke Bomb on them.
Tip: Just run in the building, gather them all in one bunch and then use the Smoke Bomb on them.
2. Go to the next two buildings to the east and do the same thing.
==Note== Kill Alliance Units & Players on the way
You should be done with [74] Smoke 'Em Out very quickly if you bomb the 3 buildings.
3. Go to the easternmost ship. On the main deck you'll find Captain Brightwater (17,81.5). He's elite but should be easily soloable for any class. Just make sure you pull him solo.
HP: 30,000
Avg. Hit on Cloth: 800
Can be slowed, stunned, feared.
Now Finish [74] Keep Them at Bay! before going to the next step.
4. Go to the middle ship (16,80). It's the same model as the boat from Booty Bay to Ratchet.
Go inside the cabin and clear the way to the last room.
==Warning== I really mean CLEAR the way. Kill all the Venture Co. in your way, even if you are a stealth class.
Once the way is clear, go to the last room where you should see the Element 115.
Loot it. You'll get the following debuff:
That means it's useless to mount or to sprint or anything like that. Just run straight back to the quest NPCs. You have only 3 Minutes to get there.
Go as fast as you can, avoid fights, and turn in [74] Seeking Solvent first.
Then turn in the other 3 quests:
- [74] Keep Them at Bay!
- [74] Smoke 'Em Out
- [74] Crush Captain Brightwater!
Hearthstone back to Conquest Hold (or ride back if you're HS is on cooldown).
1. Ride southeast, cross the bridge and go to Voldrune.
This time clear the way towards the southwestern part of Voldrune, where you should find a chained proto-drake called Flamebringer (26,80).
Now check out my video on how to do this quest, it will make it much easier, as it's kinda buggy and tricky at the moment. The only difference is that you should fly back to Conquest Hold at the end of the video, instead of towards Venture Bay.
I recommend watching the video in High Quality.
Video: [74] The Thane of Voldrune
==Note== If the video was useful to you, please don't forget to rate it! 
After having watched the video you should be more than ready.
Kill the thane and then fly to Conquest Hold.

- Kill 8 Silverbrook Hunters
- Keep on killing them until you loot Mikhail's Journal
Right-click it to start [74] Mikhail's Journal.

1. Go north to Drak'Tharon Keep.
Go to the area west of the stairs and you'll see many trolls running around (16,30):

You should be level 76 or somewhere around it. If you are ahead, that's great, keep following the guide normally, don't skip anything.

Outside of the Conquest Hold Pit, there should be a new quest available, but don't take it yet.
Optional: [74] The Conquest Pit
[74] The Conquest Pit: Bear Wrestling! is the first step of a chain similar to the Ring of Blood quest chain in Nagrand.
So you will need a group for it. You don't need a full group though, 3 player is more than enough:
1 healer, 1 tank or pet class and 1 DPS class to make it faster.
==Note== Certain classes might be able to solo the first 3 bosses depending on their gear (Death Knights, Hunters, Warlocks with Voidwalker tanking, Feral Druids, Paladins, Shamans with Earth Elemental Totem up), but not the last 2 quests in the chain.
So I recommend finding a group for it, it's really much easier and faster that way.
Proceed with the guide and keep on looking for a group for this quest chain.
Once you have a group, have your tank accept the quest first (that way, he'll get the initial aggro), and check the info below about the bosses you'll have to fight:
1st boss: Ironhide. Easy tank and spank battle.
2nd boss: Torgg Thundertotem. Do NOT destroy the Fire Nova Totems. They do 8K damage if you destroy them, so leave them alone and MOVE AWAY from them before they explode. The Furbolg can be interrupted and stunned.
3rd boss: Rustblood. Simple tank and spank. Knockbacks and attacks the 2nd person highest on the threat list. So make sure your tank is awake.
4th boss: Horgrenn Hellcleave. He charges people which are out of his melee range randomly. So have everyone stay close to him and he won't charge anyone. However, he also does a Whirlwind, quickly move away from him when he does that. When he's done with Whirlwind, go back in close melee range.
5th boss: Krenna. This one is actually easier than the previous two bosses. It's a simple tank and spank fight and you also get help from Gorgonna.
1. Ride northwest to Granite Springs (16,47.5). Turn in:
- [74] Seared Scourge, get [74] Search and Rescue, don't get the daily quest

2. Ride east/northeast to Vordrassil's Tears, you'll find a cave entrance at (28,45).
Kill Entropic Oozes on the way and loot Slime Samples off them.
Clear the way to the bottom of the cave until you find an area with black smoke.
Right-click the Geomancer's Orb from your inventory.
Get out of the cave.
==Note== From now on, look for Imperial Eagles on your way:
Target them and use the Silver Feather from your inventory.
We're not in any hurry to finish that quest, so just do it on the way, don't go looking for them.

1. From Camp Oneqwah. Ride northwest until a narrow path going up at (51.5,27).
2. Follow this path up and you'll find Tur Ragepaw (52,24).
Now before you talk to him, read the following paragraph.
Despite being a 3-man group quest, [75] Ursoc, the Bear God is soloable for tank and healer classes if you use the help of Tur Ragepaw correctly.
- If you are a tank or pet class (Protection Warrior, Paladin, Feral Druid, Death Knight, Hunter, Warlock). Tell Tur Ragepaw "We could use a healer". He will heal your tank or your pet through the fight.
- If you are a healer class, tell Tur Ragepaw "Assume your druidic bear form, Tur." And he will tank for you as long as you keep him alive with your heals.
- For other classes/specs it might be too difficult to solo the quest. With my mage in quest greens I couldn't do it. It might be possible for rogues and dps warriors if they ask Tur Ragepaw to assume the role of a healer, depending on gear.
If you can't solo it, try to look for a group. Duo'ing this quest should be easy.
==WARNING== During the fight, Ursoc will release a small black sludge called Blood of the Old God. Kill it ASAP, it only has 2K HPs, but it's very annoying (does 1K damage + stun every 5 seconds or so).
After the fight is over, target Ursoc's corpse and use the Purified Ashes of Vordrassil.
==Note== You can also use the Purified Ashes of Vordrassil on the corpse even if someone else killed Ursoc.
If you can't find a group, just save this quest for when you reach level 80.
Go turn in [75] Ursoc, the Bear God whenever you're close to Conquest Hold or when your hearthstone is ready. I won't tell you when to turn it in in the guide, so it's up to you.
Go back to Camp Oneqwah.
1. Go north of Camp Oneqwah and you'll find a cave (65,43).
Go inside and you'll find Anya.
Turn in [75] A Sister's Pledge.
Sasha will come, get her quest [75] Hour of the Worg.
2. Go northeast to Redwood Trading Post, turn in [75] A Bear of an Appetite.
Talk to Hugh Glass, click on the text saying "Calm down, I want to ask you about the Iron Dwarves and Loken"
Let him speak until you get a quest update.
==Reminder== Kill Duskhowl Prowlers and Longhoof Grazers on sight.
1. Go east/southeast to a summoning circle with 4 dwarves Iron Rune-Weavers channeling (79,44):
Kill the 4 Dwarves, Overseer Brunon will spawn. Kill him.
2. Go northwest to another summoning circle (75,37).
Kill the 4 Dwarves, Overseer Lochli will spawn. Kill him.
3. Go northwest to another summoning circle (72,34).
Kill the 4 Dwarves, Overseer Korgan will spawn. Kill him.
4. Go northwest to another summoning circle (68,30).
Kill the 4 Dwarves, Overseer Druval will spawn. Kill him.
1. Go northeast to Drakil'jin Ruins (71,27).
==Note== Kill Drakkari Protectors and Drakkari Oracles on the way while going north.
2. Further north you'll find an entrance to the catacombs at (71.5,23).
Look for Drakkari Canopic Jars:
Loot 5 of them.
3. Go deeper in the catacombs until you see a yellow "!" on your minimap (69.5,17.5). If there's no "!" on the minimap, it means someone else is doint the escort quest, so you'll have to wait a little.
Go to that room and you'll find Drakkari Tablets in a corner:
Loot the Drakkari Tablets.
Now talk to Harrison Jones and start the escort quest [75] Dun-da-Dun-tah!
It's an easy escort quest as long as you let Harrison Jones tank the elite snake for you.
1. After the escort. Kill trolls in the ruins until you've looted 5 Sacred Mojo.
Then go to the middle of the Drakil'jin Ruins and find Drakuru's Brazier, up some broken stairs (71.5,26).
Right-click Drakuru's Elixir.
Turn in [75] Voices From the Dust, get [75] Cleansing Drak'Tharon.
Now kill trolls around Drakil'jin Ruins until you finished [75] Therapy.
Optional - Instance: Drak'Tharon Keep.
Now we've got all the quests for Drak'Tharon Keep:
- [74] Search and Rescue
- [75] Cleansing Drak'Tharon
So from now on, if you feel like it, you should look for a group for Drak'Tharon Keep. It's a very nice instance for level 74-76 players, I recommend it.
If you don't feel like it or if you don't find a group, you can abandon [74] Search and Rescue, it can easily be picked up in the future at the Granite Springs, if you change your mind. However, do not abandon [75] Cleansing Drak'Tharon, as it's rather annoying to get that quest again if you abandon it.
2. Ride southeast back to Harkor's Camp. Turn in:
- [75] Therapy
- [75] Dun-da-Dun-tah!
- [75] It Takes Guts..., get [75] Drak'aguul's Mallet
Optional: [75] Hour of the Worg
This group quest is supposedly soloable by certain classes (Death Knights, Paladins, Hunters, Warlocks, Druids, etc). But it's of course much easier to get a 2 or 3-man team for it.
So look for a group while following the rest of my guide, and when you find a group, come back to this section.
1. Swim northeast to Bloodmoon Isle (83,28).
2. Follow the path up and there will be a camp to your right, where you should find a big worgen called Selas (85.5,27.5). Kill it.
3. Get back on the path and further up to your left you'll find another camp, where you will find Varlam (85,24). Kill him.
4. Once you reach the top of the hill, go around to the tower towards the southern side and you'll find a big worg called Goremaw. Kill it.
5. Enter the tower, fight your way to the top. There you will find the Shade of Arugal.
Shade of Arugal Strategy
HP: 107,000
Phase 1: Shadowbolts for ~1500 dmg. Goes to Phase 2 at 75-70% HP.
Phase 2: Becomes invulnerable and summons 3 adds. Kill the adds to go back to Phase 1. When he hits 50% HP, he goes to Phase 3.
Phase 3: Becomes invulnerable again. Mind controls a party member which you'll have to bring down to 35% health.
Once you break the Mind Control, Arugal goes back to Phase 1.
Bring him down to 25% HP and he'll go to Phase 4.
Phase 4: It's just like Phase 2, but with 9 adds instead of 3.
Kill the adds, then kill Arugal.
Sasha will show up and help you finish him off during the last phase. After the fight is over, turn in [75] Hour of the Worg.
1. Now look for Drak'aguul. A big troll who spawns at (74,30) and patrols on the path towards Drakil'jin Ruins.
Kill him, loot the Drakil'jin Mallet.
Go back to Harkor's Camp, turn in [75] Drak'aguul's Mallet, get [75] See You on the Other Side.
2. Ride to Drakil'jin Ruins, go to the gongs infront of the catacombs entrance (71.5,25):
Right-click the Drakil'jin Mallet while being very close to the one of the gongs.
You'll die shortly after, it's normal.
3. Go inside the catacombs and go deeper until you find Gan'jo.
Turn in [75] See You on the Other Side, get [75] Chill Out, Mon.
Right next to Gan'jo you should see Gan'jo's Chest:
Right-click it and loot the Snow of Eternal Slumber.
Talk to Gan'jo and ask him to return you to the living.
Go back to the previous room.
Target an Ancient Drakkari Warmonger or Soothsayer and right-click the Snow of Eternal Slumber.
Follow the Ancient Drakkari when it starts to run and then loot the Drakkari Spirit Particles after its mummy burns.
Repeat this 5 times.
4. Get out of the ruins, mount up and ride back to Harkor's Camp.
Turn in [75] Chill Out, Mon, get [75] Jin'arrak's End.
1. Ride to the Drakil'jin Ruins again.
Go inside the catacombs and look for a Sacred Drakkari Offering in the first room:
Loot it.
Right-click the Drakkari Spirit Dust from your inventory.
2. Get out and go to the gongs just ouside the catacombs.
Right-click the Infused Drakkari Offering from your inventory.
3. Go back to Harkor's Camp. Turn in [75] Jin'arrak's End.
Sell junk at the
4. Go east to Gavrok, turn in [75] Runes of Compulsion, get [75] Latent Power.

Let him speak until you get a quest update.
1. Go south/slightly southwest to an isle with a stone surrounded by a blue glow (79,40).
Right-click the Shard of Gavrock.
==Note== Don't forget to kill Longhoof Grazers on sight if you still need them for [75] Nice to Meat You.
2. Go southwest to another of those blue glow stones (74,44).
Right-click the Shard of Gavrock.
3. Go northwest to another of those blue glow stones (71,39.5).

- Kill an Iron Rune Overseer, loot an Overseer's Uniform
They're mostly inside the buildings.
2. Go back to Camp Oneqwah, turn in:
- [75] The Overseer's Shadow, get [75] Cultivating an Image
- [75] An Intriguing Plan, get [75] From the Ground Up

Two objectives again:
Kill a dwarf, loot it, target the corpse and use Rokar's Camera from your inventory. Repeat 8 times- Gather 8 War Golem Parts
2. Go back to Camp Oneqwah, turn in:
- [75] Cultivating an Image, get [75] Loken's Orders
- [75] From the Ground Up, get [75] We Have the Power
1. Mount up.
Ride back to Dun'Argol.
Once in Dun'Argol, right-click the Overseer Disguise Kit. Yes, it works while mounted, and only if you are already mounted!
2. Ride up to the next tier with the two dwarven buildings.
First, go to the building on your right-hand side. You should find Rune-Smith Durar inside (75,57).
Cancel the Iron Rune Overseer Disguise buff. Kill Rune-Smith Durar, loot Durar's Power Cell.
3. Use the Overseer Disguise Kit again.
Get out of the building and go straight ahead, towards the next building (77,59).
Kill Rune-Smith Kathorn, loot Kathorn's Power Cell.
4. Get out of the building.
Mount up.
Use the Overseer Disguise Kit again.
Go about 20 yards north and you should see a path going east.
Follow this path until you reach the easternmost dwarven building (81,60).
Inside the building, right-click Loken's Pedestal, listen to Loken's speech and you'll get a quest udpate.
Get out of the building.
Mount up.
Use the Overseer Disguise Kit.
Ride back to Camp Oneqwah.
==WARNING== Do NOT turn in [75] Loken's Orders. The disguise will be very useful for the rest of the quests.

Now right-click the Golem Control Unit.
Go next to Iron Thane Furyhammer.
Now do this:
1. Use Ability #2
2. Cancel the Overseer Disguise buff.
3. Target Iron Thane Furyhammer and use Ability #1 whenever it's up. Also use Ability#2 again whenever The Anvil recovers from the EMP.
4. Once Iron Thane Furyhammer is dead, stay in the Golem Suit and run away until they give up on following you. Don't bother killing The Anvil. (Please note that you take no falling damage in the suit, so you can jump off high cliffs too to escape).
Once they've given up on you, mount up and ride back to Camp Oneqwah.
Turn in the 2 quests:
- [75] Bringing Down The Iron Thane
- [75] Loken's Orders
1. Ride northeast to Gavrock, turn in [75] Latent Power, get [75] Free at Last.
2. Ride southwest to a plains area at (72,37).
Look for Runed Giants and use Gavrock's Runebreaker on them.
- If it works, the giant will become friendly and you'll get a quest update
- If it doesn't work, the giant will attack you but will be in a much weaker state. So you'll just have to re-use Gavrock's Runebreaker until it works. Meanwhile, try to stun or to kite the giant until the item cools down.
Keep doing this until you've 4 Runed Giants Freed.
While you're here, also kill Longhoof Grazers and Duskhowl Prowlers until you finish [75] Nice to Meat You!
No map needed for this part.
1. Ride to Harkor's Camp. Turn in [75] Nice to Meat You!
2. Ride to Gavrock. Turn in [75] Free at Last.
You should be level 77 or somewhere around it. If you are ahead, that's great, keep following the guide normally, don't skip anything. If you are behind, that's not a problem either, just keep following the guide normally. You'll catch up eventually and there will be a lot of extra circuits at the end anyway
Level 77
We're done with Grizzly Hills! If you still haven't done the group quests, now is your last chance to do them. If you can't find a group though, it's not a big deal, just save these quests for level 80.
It's time to go to Zul'Drak. Please follow my guide to Zul'Drak!
I hope you enjoyed this guide. If you want to return the favor, please try to contribute.

bad coords
great guide! thanks so much, i actually enjoy leveling now!
i'm using the addon version of this guide and found that on the quest Attack on Silverbrook, the arrow points to a place in the middle of zul'drak which got me very confused. just wanted to point that out. thanks so much for all the work put into the guides!
Hey Jame
Hey there, i found a bug involving:
[74] Filling the Cages.
Instead of going south with budd, go north of the camp!
You can use budd's sap ability on the dead corpses, and finally cage them!
Saves some time
Thane of Voldrune
Your video is great (love the music) but I had trouble getting the dragon to strafe and move sideways to avoid the volley! After several attempts, I tried bringing the dragon in close to melee range (put head right on Thane) and was able to avoid his ranged attacks completely! Use #2 to stun as often as possible, alternate both flame attacks, and he goes down fairly quickly! Without his volley, he's unable to bring the dragon down in time and the rider avoids damage as well! peasedmp

Level 80 doing level 75 quests
Hi James and fellow readers.
I just created an account because I thought you all would want to hear some great results from Jame's guides. I started at lvl 57 (~90% in) with your, “Journey from Hellfire Peninsula to Terokkar [Level 60 – 65]” guide. That's right. Two full levels below! The toon is a DK and I had done all the DK quests, so I just thought I would start your guide early and see if I could do them. I figured I would just have to go grind to lvl up at some point. I was wrong. Gotta love patch 3.0!!
Result:
I dinged to level 80 after turning in the quest "[74] A Show of Strength" at Conquest Hold which is at the very top of this guide, “Grizzly Hills [75-77]”. I was supposed to just be at lvl 75 at that point!! Plus remember I started two levels down!
How I did it:
I just followed all of your advice to the letter. I did no other quests but the ones in your guide. I never wavered. I did not grind - ever. I did do every single thing you said was optional, once each. I never dropped a quest. I did every single one. I never ran any other dungeons or instances.
The Effects:
As I progressed, I not only caught up to the level I was supposed to be at, I started to pass it. That just made it easier and quicker! Also, many of the group quests I was able to do solo!! Because I was a few levels ahead, there were only three group quests I had to get help with after I hit lvl 65. I even soloed the optional quest, “[74] Really Big Worm” (I was 79 at that point).
Follow the Guide!
When I hit lvl 70, I staid in and did not go off to Northend. I staid and finished all of the quests from Chapter VI (65-70) like you said to do if I wanted to ding to 80 early & make a lot of gold in the end. Well, it worked James! What you really don’t go into is how fast and easy and fun the guide is when you go and kick ass because you are higher up from the area you are in! Don’t get me wrong. It’s still not a walk in the park. It’s just not frustrating. Lower level Allys run like hell away from you too. Lawl I rarely got ganked which interrupts your leveling time. I rarely visited the GY which is the one thing I truly hate about WOW (they really excessively punish you in WOW when you die IMO). I just hate that walk back to my corpse. NO wait…I effffffing hate that walk back to my corpse!
Money, Money!
Now, that I am lvl 80 I get to do 99% of all the quests in your Grizzly Hills guide and get gold instead of XP! I should make a ton!! It should be easy to do them too (and fun!). I will leave an update comment after I complete them to let you all know just how much gold I made!!
Thanks!
I spent all this time writing this because it is my way of giving back to James for giving so much to me for free. I really hope it encourages others. I wish I had some different way to say thanks for the free leveling guides James. So many people have come in there and told you that. But I don’t. So here goes. Thanks James!! You saved me a ton of heartache, time and made the game fun for me.

Thanks for the awesome and
Thanks for the awesome and detailed post, looking forward to see how much money you make from those Grizzly Hills quests!
Thanks Again
Just wanted to say thanks again to Jame (where ever you are), Jiyambi and all the other contributors on this site, and to summarize my experience - just dinged 80 yesterday. My way from 70 to 80 consisted of:
1. Following all four of Jame's Northrend guides
2. Running two instances (not much XP there)
3. Doing almost every Midsummer Fire Festival quest (that alone was worth almost a full level)
4. about 40 daily quests
All this brought me to about 79.5. Then some quests in Storm Peaks and Ding.
I had rested XP constantly. I would say going only through jame's four guides while rested can give you about eight levels. I spent about 10 hours a level on avarage, but I was really taking my time - at the times where I was very focused on leveling, I was gaining a level per six hours or so. Not a super-leveler, I know... But hey, I'm a warrior, I'm not supposed to level fast
So, thanks again people, keep up the good work.

Thanks for the nice feedback!
Thanks for the nice feedback!
thane
they must've patched this suit because when I jumped off to escape all my adds I lost all but 465 hp... and to make it worse I jumped into a priest on pvp mode. >.<
anyway my point is do NOT jump off just be patient and ride down.
Just made it to 80
Just hit 80 with my first toon a DK. It was a DK and I used the leveling guides all the way up. Hit 80 about 3/4 of the way through Dragonblight (did not go to outland until 62 as I was getting 3X XP up to 60).
Just wanted to say thank you again. I will now work on my level 60 mage and level 60 warrior to get them to 80.
Quest Coordinates Update...
You have a "Things to do" part of the guide once you head out to complete the "Horse Hollerer" in Grizzly Hills. It states to head to 60,22 to complete this and it notes that it has not yet been confirmed. The actual coordinates to land the largest amount of Mustangs is 62,32. I found 14 of 15 there, there are however, another 5 to 6 up in the hills at your original coords of 60,22. Just thought I would do the confirming for ya while I had the time...
Great guides... they make life easy.
Level times
Hey could anyone please tell me how long you took using this guide level during the 70-80, so like how long per level please? thanks in advance
Revered Member
On my hunter I did not use
On my hunter I did not use Jame's guides, and I was getting a level every 4.5 hours on average. However on my paladin (retribution specced) I was getting about 3.5 hours (on average) per level using the guides. The results speak for themselves
.
Awesome job Jame /salute
Thanks
Revered Member
I can give answer for rogues
Yeah, as title says: with my quest-equipped rogue , about 70% BLUEs and 30% greens (great ^^) I leveled 78-80 in 5 hours, which makes 1 level every 2,5 hours. And this was without any Jame guide but with my horrible skills - consisting in thottbotting and putting coords in tomtom. So, I made 90% quests in Zul'Drak and a bunch in Sholozar Basin. The time to fly from ZD to the north of Borean Tundra and then to find the nessingwary camp is really a lot, and I am bloody sure that with Jame guiding us through the last levels 78-80 can be in less than 4 hours.
Before those levels I can't remember because I had a 3 month stop and I was pretty much relaxed with leveling. Only the last 2 levels were a kind of quick boost

Mileage varries, but I know
Mileage varries, but I know during the beta Jame was getting ridiculous times. Personally with my pally (who admittedly is OP) I probably could level once every 3 hours, at least at the early levels. I'm not really certain though because I wasn't really keeping track, and took breaks to do instances.
Eventually we will have completed our speed testing runs (which are worst-case scenario sort of things) and can give you better info.

Feedback.
So, finally, after a 3 months pause from WoW , I came back to play
Firstly I decided to begin from scratch zero but - then - I've decided to level my level 78 rogue to 80 and see what to do. Anyway, I used the addon version and I've found no bugs or problems. The guide was extremely easy to follow, expecially when I got the cold weather flying skill and I flew over the plains of Grizzly Hills (60% mount but it was anyway better than the epic ground mount). I did every quest except the DTK quests (no party at all...) and 2 other group quests (the first is Ursoc, the bear god and Hour of the worg, only the last boss - the other 3 dudes were pretty much pwned by me). Did all in rested and I ended 40% into level 78. Then I did some quests in Zul'Drak (about 90, didn't get the achievement), ~20 quests in Sholozar Basin, finaly hit 80, 450 mining and skinning.
Anyway, back to the feedback. It was all extremely fun, and surprisingly fast. I thought that at those high levels experience was hard to raise, but this guide changed my mind: it was faster from 78 to 80 than in the mid 60s! Thanks Jame, hope to see some nice updates before the summer hits the world
Typo
Jame just a little typo i found. You have a quest as
[74] Overwhelmed its really [74] Overwhelmed! no big deal i know but thought i would let you know
Quest
Ok Jame I love the guides. But i skipped the Dragonblight one because I am a little high and at the beginning it says we should have a quest called [74] The High Executor Needs You. I went back to dragonblight and did the beginning of it but it doesnt seem to come up for me.. is this quest really needed or can i just skip those parts?
Typo
Edit - never mind - didn't follow the guide right.
Thanks Jame!
another suggestion
"1. Go south/slightly southwest to an isle with a stone surrounded by a blue glow (79,40).
Right-click the Shard of Gavrock."
maybe add the item Shard of Gavrock as clickable via the add-on like the "Infused Drakkari Offering" was in the earlier step:)
question and typo :)
"Go to Drakuru's Brazier, which is up some ruined stairs in the middle of Dark'Zin (13,61)." should be Drak'Zin
and thent he question, While doing the step gathering the Ice Serpent Eyes for the above step, I came to araound 11,62 close to the river where the snow starts, there are like 5-6 "Shimmering Snow Cap"'s here and some serpents flying by, why not get the Snowcap's at the same time as you are there?
just a suggestion tho,
Thanks for a wonderfull guide, not only for levling, but also for Loremaster achivement:)

Fixing the typo,
Fixing the typo, thanks.
Sure you can collect the Snow Caps there but you have to take the way along the river to the north in any case, so it doesn't really matter if you collect them on the way or while killing ice serpents
Okay i found out the
Okay i found out the problem.
In the addon version you never tell us to DO or TURN IN the quest "Attack on Silverbrook". It was the only one i had left after finishing the rest of the guide and after doing it the quest with the bear and all of the quests of grayhorn became available. so please fix that one
except that great guide!

This should be posted under the TourGuide pages instead of here
I' using the addon version
I' using the addon version and i get along really fast (I'm level 79 now with epic flying mount, i did the whole of SMV first at level 70).
Two Problems til now:
I think it's the second time you do PvP Quests, but before the one with the shredders. There are 4 Questgivers two of them standing near to each other in the hut and the other two outside. The addon tells you to accept one outside, the next one inside, then again outside and finally the last inside, same with the turning in. Since its addon i didnt know if you should accept every quest so i had to do the running around.
Second thing, which is worse:
Windseer Grayhorn doesn't offer neither The Darkness Beneath nor Vordrassil's Fall to me, even after completing Eyes Above.
But it's really nice except that
keep it up you really helped me so much with my leveling already
Shade of Arugal
hey jame,
u didnt mention it to go after him without pet, he reseted 3 times after mind control (if ure pet die u are friendly to him and he reset).
Dont know how its about hunter/warlock pet but ithink its the same.
Latent Power
In the TG addon it says that you need to rightclick the stone, infact you need to use an item in your inventory while standing close to the stones.
Greetz from Germany
Small upgrade to "Raining Down Destruction"
"==Note== You can only carry one Boulder at a time"
Looks like they changed that, you can carry as many as you need. So just loot 5 and than go to the trench and throw them. No biggy, just to let you know.
Thanks for another great guide.

Tanking specs
I found so far my pally does better with tank spec. She was a kara geared tank before woltk though and her ret set is less desirable. Also the player being use to being prot might affect it.
Most pallys around 40-50 flip to prot to solo though too...
Please, Excuse my ramblings
Thanks for the guide its always eagerly awaited and wonderfully executed. Can never express the gratitude for so much detailed work available to the public.
Delillah, Undead Priestess...
Group Quests
I ve found that the Group Quest with Arugal is quite easily soloable with any ranged class, if you use the following strategy:
Prepare Mana/HP pots and Bandages, you will need them.
Start at the stairs so you can cast at Arugal, but you can quickly run down. Use your strong-long to cast nuke to pull him, place any DoTs on him(if you can) and continue casting until he starts to cast Shadowbolt on you, then run out of his Line of Sight(=down the stairs), but return immeadiately after he aborts his cast(so he doesnt run down, but starts castin another spell).
Renew DoTs, use fast casting time spells, or instants but keep LoSing his Shadowbolts so you dont take much dmg.
When he is too close, just run further down, to the lower level of the Tower and keep LoSing him.
Also, the adds he summons wont attack you if you are at the lower floor and Arugal wont reset and they will despawn shortly after(but this may be a bug) - it worked for me when he summoned 3 adds, but not when he summoned 9 of them, but I wasnt paying attention to my positioning, so I was probably too close.
Bandage/Pot when necessary and watch for respawn of normal mobs
_____________________________________________________
Another thing I ve found is when trying to solo Ursoc, if you are hybrid class that can heal(Ele Sham, Moonkin, Shadowpriest) it is better to tell the NPC helper that you need a healer and tank yourself.
Ive tried to act as a healer(as a Moonkin) and died four times because I ve run out of mana(and I was fully buffed with Scrolls, Food, etc and I ve also had Mana Pots).
Then I ve tried to act as a tank(at that momment I ve run out of Scrolls/Food and had no pots left) and killed him at my first try.

Great, as always
James, your guide is great, as always.
.
I'm guessing to be 80 by the end of this guide but i hope there will be a next 1 so i can follow it for the achievements en quest mony
So if there comes a next 1, you got any idea of a date for it to be released?
thx anyway,

awesome guide!!
I followed your WotLK guides up to this point and with the help of alot of rested xp and a near constant wintergrasp xp buff I dinged 79 at the end of this guide and got my last lvl through instances. Now I have 4 totally untouched zones filled with gold compensation, and I can't wait do Zul'Drak and the others with your guides to be sure I don't miss i single quest.

Nice guide Jame, one error I
Nice guide Jame, one error I found though is at Blue Sky Logging Grounds PvP part. You said "Gather the following parts until you finish [74] Pieces Parts:" the Horde quest is Making Repairs. Other than that it looks great

Found a pretty critical
Found a pretty critical error. You tell us:
Do that on the way while looking for a Broken-down Shredder:
Jump into one, face toward the bridge east and use ability #3 to sprint.
The bride is to the west, if i'm not mistaken.

Good Troll Hunting, not Troll Season
Hi I noticed that in the guide it says to turn in "Troll Season", actually the Horde version is Good Troll Hunting.

Indeed! Fixing it, thanks!
Indeed! Fixing it, thanks!
Correction
# [74] The Darkness Beneath
# [74] Vordrassil's Fall
These 2 quests are from Windseer Grayhorn, not Gorgonna
Also, its worth noting that the last step in Pit of Conquest you fight multiple mobs, not just Krenna.

A Big Thank You!
Jame, just wanted to thank you for your guides.
Because of rl stuff such as work and family I haven´t as much time to play as I´d like, but with your guides the playtime I have is really efficient.
Finished the Dragonblight-guide two days ago, halfway through lvl 77 since I´ve been fully rested during the whole time I´ve played, and today I see that your Grizzly Hills-guide is up. Keep up the good work, you have my eternal gratitude.
