Travel tips before leaving for Outland!

#1 » Post by Fitzpatrick » 05 Jun 2017 13:03

General
  • Pick up the two flight paths for your faction in Hellfire, then take the ravager path from southern Hellfire down into Terrokar and into Shattrath. The city has portals to the old-world cities for training, AH, etc and makes an exceptionally good bind point. Although you can't yet do the Scryers/Aldor choice quest, you can bind at the inns. Otherwise, you won't get directed to Shattrath until level 63-64.
  • Bring your excess tradeskill stuff with you when you go through the dark portal. You will find tradeskill vendors in Thrallmar and Honor Hold, and you can get some free points from now-worthless stuff sitting in your banks before you dig in to TBC tradeskilling mats.
  • For Alliance characters, make sure you pick up a Netherguard Bitter (drink) in the Blasted Lands castle before you take the Dark Portal. There is a quest which requires 1 in Hellfire Peninsula and it will save a trip later.
Leveling and Reputation
  • You want to focus on questing that will also give you reputation with the Heroic dungeon reps (Thrallmar/Honor Hold, Cenarion, Lower City, Shattar). This means if you get ahead and find you want to skip content, don't skip Hellfire Peninsula, Zangarmarsh, Terrokar, or Netherstorm particularly. Nagrand, while a *great* zone, is skippable in terms of reputation gains.
  • Non-heroic dungeons provide reputation only up to a certain level. This means that running a bunch of Hellfire Ramparts, Slave Pens/Underbog, and Auchindoun instances can be a good idea *before* you start leveling in the according zones can be a good idea to get a boost on reputation, although it may not be the fastest for experience.
Without getting into the minutiae of which quests to do, anyone have any other tips to add?

Normal dungeons should give rep until revered, since that is the required rep for the heroic keys. Or am I wrong?

That really depends on the level of the dungeon. Take Hellfire Citadel for example. Ramparts and Blood Furnace only go to honored. You need Shattered Halls to get to revered.
For the Hellfire faction, it might be interesting to grind on the mobs outside of the dungeon that give rep to friendly, go Ramparts/Blood Furnace until honored and then start questing. This should get you over halfway to revered, making you have to grind Shattered Halls a couple times less before stepping into heroic.

[Flamewrought Key] , [Reservoir Key] , [Auchenai Key] , [Warpforged Key] , [Key to the Arctraz , [Key of Time]
best way :
60~62 in hellfire , to unlock dungeon quest's u need to do almost all quests here and they are realy easy with good xp , if i dont mistake only 1 hellfire dungeon quest is in shadowmoon valley - so by this way u can have [Flamewrought Key] for Hellfire citadel Hc's
62~63 or 64 Zangarmarsh , is good to know there are x2~3 facition rep for each facition (horde / ally) in zangarmarsh
and u only need to do quest's at Cenarion refuge for rep for [Reservoir Key] for Coilfang Hc's , is better to dont wast ur time for other rep's at this point
63-64~66 u should go terrokar forest , before it , go and take shattrath quest's for lower city rep , but u'll recive enough rep for lower city by doing nm Auchindoun dungeons for [Auchenai Key] , also is usefull to know most of quest's in outland which are not for specific rep , will giv u Lower city rep , it is kinda common rep :)
Dudu's dont forget to do chain quest to unlock "Raven Lord" boss for Epic mount "Anzo"
66~68 go Netherstorm , there will be 3~4 rep here too , but for [Warpforged Key] u need Sha'tar Rep , best way to farm this rep is to do tempest keep nm dungeon's , Dont forget to do some quest from shattrath and netherstorm for [Key to the Arctraz for 3rd dungeon in netherstorm
68~70 go Nagrand , there will be mostly Group quest's , just to reach 70
in additional there is 1 more key [Key of Time] for Caverns of Time hc's , this key need some tip's
u cant do "The Black Morass" by Rdf w/o chain quest , it is kinda Attnue
there is a quest at entrance of Caverns of time By Dragon , it is not hard , first one is auto complete , second one is explore caverns of time with Friendly Npc , after it u have to do 1 quest in "old hillsbrad foothills" , remember u need to complete all quest inside of this dungeon , they are chain !
after u r done with this quest's , quest giver outside of instance will giv u a quest which lead u into "the Black Morass" , after u complete quest here , u'll have enough rep to buy [Key of Time] , also u can Do "The Black Morass" By Rdf after it
At end , Do u need to do quest's in "Shadowmoon Valley" and "Blade's Edge Moutians" ?
i would say Dont do them for now , there will be quest's for other outland rep's but they are not neseccary at lunch of TBC

Also in "Lower City" there is a Daily Random Quest which will giv u x2 "Badge Of justice" and reputation
