Horde: Durotar

Posted in horde by theloremaster on January 31, 2009

Next, I took my Troll home to Durotar.

Thrall's Throne

You might want to take the quest “Hidden Enemies” from Thrall while you’re in Orgrimmar. While the chain doesn’t have any Durotar-classified quests in it, it leads us directly into Skull Rock, which we’ll be going through for some other Durotar quests. It’s also a prerequisite for a Ragefire Chasm quest. Unfortunately, Thrall was dead on my server when I tried to take the quest.

Durotar is really very simple. You start out in the Valley of Trials, keep going until you’re told to go to Sen’Jin Village, pick up all the quests there, then go to Razor Hill before doing of Sen’Jin’s quests. Don’t forget “A Peon’s Burden” along the road. It’s really quite hard to miss any of the quests here, with a couple of notable exceptions.

It’s possible to miss the goblin that gives “Winds in the Desert” if you head north any way other than the road. Alliance can do this goblin’s quests too, but I’ll probably mention it alongside any Barrens quests the Alliance may have. Don’t forget to stop by Tor’kren Farm for the quest to get the medallion from the crocolisks, there’s no breadcrumb that leads there. Also, when you’re told to go into Skull Rock to collect Searing Collars, clear all the way into the cave back to Gazz’uz for a drop that starts a quest. Finally, the easiest quest to miss is Rhinag’s “Need for a Cure” quest, which has a 45-minute time limit that shouldn’t be a problem if you’re higher level. Rhinag is near the zeppelin tower to Borean Tundra; more detailed coordinates can be found by using EveryQuest/LightHeaded.

Durotar is quite straightforward and easy, and I gained over 8000 reputation with Orgrimmar and the Darkspear Trolls by doing all of the quests listed under this category.
