WoW Classic 20th Anniversary Darkmoon Faire In Phase 3: How To Prepare For This Event?

When you are in World of WarCraft, the first stage of the game is always the most difficult, because at this time you have neither enough XP to help your character become stronger through upgrading, nor powerful gear to arm and protect yourself, everything is waiting for you to go to the starting area to explore. Therefore, the choice of starting zones is crucial. In 2024, WoW Classic launched its 20th Anniversary server, allowing you to experience new areas and new content, and feel the sense of achievement of upgrading from scratch in the classic version again. Since you may not have played WoW Classic for a long time before this, and the game itself has also undergone some adjustments, in order not to affect your WoW 20th Anniversary upgrade experience, you must choose your starting zones carefully. Based on this, we have ranked the 6 zones in the game from low to high. And introduce them to you one by one. If you want to know which one is the best, please see the end! 6. Teldrassil This is the habitat of the popular Night Elf, but it is not a good starting zone because once you leave Shadowglen, you will find that the rest of Teldrassil is full of dangerous tomb nests, which are inhabited by many monsters. Although clearing them can bring a lot of 20th Anniversary Gold, the high density of monsters is not suitable for a new character to face. In addition, due to the circular shape of Teldrassil, you are rarely far away from your target, which makes it difficult to avoid enemy attacks by pulling away in combat. However, these are not to say that Teldrassil is useless. In fact, it may be the best of all the starting zones in terms of aesthetics, and due to its small overall area, it will save time to explore - provided that you are strong enough to defeat all enemies within range. 5. Mulgore One reason why Mulgore is unpopular may be that Tauren race living here is not popular. Even if someone chooses Tauren, it is probably because it is the only Druid in Horde. However, what really affects the popularity of Mulgore is that although it is beautiful, it is very large. If you don’t have a mount, it may take half an hour to visit each location, and because the quests are scattered, you may even have to run all over the zone. Even more tricky is that the danger of crossing between areas in Mulgore is also very high. For example, when you reach the wasteland, you may not be able to guarantee that you can survive smoothly, whether in Hardcore or Classic 20th Anniversary. However, the advantage of Mulgore is that the scenery here is good, and the strength of Tauren is enough to handle most quests within the range. 4. Dun Morogh In terms of the beauty of the landscape, Dun Morogh is famous in the game community for its moving snow scenery. If you choose this as the starting zone, although it takes a lot of time to cross the entire zone, fortunately, the exploration of Ironforge and the mountains is not very difficult, and the quests can provide a lot of WoW Classic 20th Anniversary Gold as rewards, and the difficulty is not too high. Although there are a few dangerous caves in this zone, it is much better than Teldrassil or Mulgore, and the connection between Ironforge and Stormwind also makes the journey between areas easier. In addition, it is recommended that you go to Loch Modan to upgrade your character level before reaching Westfall. 3. Tirisfal Glades The areas in this zone have a high quest and monster appearance rate, which can improve your gold farming efficiency. Among all the areas, Deathknell is the fastest and easiest, and the spider cave is more difficult. But after leaving Deathknell, you will find that the road to other areas will be tortuous, and you may always have to go back. Perhaps this is the main reason Tirisfal Glades did not enter the top 2. 2. Durotar This is the starting area for Orcs and Trolls. It is vast and very difficult to cross. Fortunately, the quest density here is very high, which can ensure that your journey is fulfilling and meaningful. You can knock down three or four enemies during almost every trip, and most of the quests are also simple, just clean the map or collect some props. In addition, Durotar’s Ragefire Chasm, as the lowest level dungeon in the game, can still provide you with some excellent equipment at a lower difficulty. However, please be careful of Fizzle and his gang, as well as Skull Rock when traversing Durotar. 1. Elwynn Forest In fact, not only in World of WarCraft series, Elwynn Forest can even be regarded as the most famous explorable zone in most MMORPGs. For WoW 20th Anniversary players, the exploration difficulty here is not high. There is almost no real threat except for Hogger or some kobold caves. You can even get your first green out in the game through Hogger’s quest. As for the density of quests, Elwynn Forest is even more comfortable. You will find that the quests are evenly distributed between the west and the east, and there are enough vendors to help you manage your luggage during the journey. At the same time, the difficulty of the quests is not high. Although the long journey between the east and the west may make you tired, it is relatively short compared to the walking routes of the lower-ranked zones. Perhaps after understanding the above ranking information, you will be more willing to choose top 1 as your starting zone for WoW Classic 20th Anniversary, but in fact you can also enter those zones with lower rankings but more difficult to challenge yourself!

Since World of WarCraft first opened the door to Azeroth to players in 2004, this epoch-making MMORPG has accompanied players around the world for 20 years. As one of the most influential works in the history of games, WoW Classic released its 20th Anniversary Edition on November 21, 2024. The server of WoW Classic 20th Anniversary is a brand new server, which means that all players have to start over. During the operation of the 20th anniversary, the official will divide the update content into several stages. The first and second stages have been released, and it is expected that around March 20, 2025, the game will usher in the third stage. The content that will be updated in the third stage is Blackwing Lair, Darkmoon Faire. Blackwing Lair Background Blackwing Lair is the home of Nefarian, the son of Deathwing and brother of Onyxia. Originally, Dark Iron Dwarves built this area, but Nefarian took over the place, intending to use it as a base to rule all of Azeroth. How To Enter Blackwing Lair? Blackwing Lair is a large raid with very generous rewards. In addition to a large amount of WoW Classic 20th Anniversary Gold, there are also gear for each class. Blackwing Lair is adjacent to Blackrock Depths, Blackrock Spire and Molten Core, and is located inside Blackrock Mountain. Blackrock Mountain has two entrances: Searing Gorge and Burning Steppes. Searing Gorge After entering Searing Gorge, follow the initial path into Molten Span. You will see a long chain to the east leading to a broken stone ledge. You need to run up the chain and then follow the ledge around the corner. When you reach the edge of the ledge, you will find a balcony below the edge. Jump onto this balcony. Go through the doorway to Blackrock Spire dungeon portal. If you have completed Blackwing Lair Attunement, run down the corridor and you will see an orb. Touch the orb to enter Blackwing Lair. Burning Steppes After entering Burning Steppes, you need to take the path to the left to enter Molten Span. This path leads to a long chain of rock ledges. The path behind and along is the same as when entering from Searing Gorge. Blackwing Lair Attunement Blackwing Lair is located on the upper level of Blackrock Spire. Specifically, it is in the hallway after Warchief Rend Blackhand event. But you can also find a shortcut to get in quickly. If you are facing the entrance to Blackrock Spire, turn right now and look down the hallway. You will see several Scarshield mobs, including a Scarshield Quartermaster. After killing them, Scarshield Quartermaster will drop Blackhand’s Command, which will then start Blackhand’s Command quest. For this quest, you need to touch Orb of Ascension behind Drakkisath. Drakkisath is the final boss of Blackrock Spire. Once you’re done, you can return to the corridor where you killed Scarshield Quartermaster and quickly enter Blackwing Lair, which is located to the right of the entrance to Blackrock Spire. You’ll see an orb at the end of the corridor and touch this orb to enter Blackwing Lair. Class Specific Trinkets In addition to the regular WoW Classic 20th Anniversary gold and equipment, Blackwing Lair bosses will also drop unique trinkets for each class. Here is a list of trinkets for each class in Blackwing Lair: Druid: Rune of Metamorphosis (Trinkets), Vaelastrasz the Corrupt (Boss). Hunter: Arcane Infused Gem (Trinkets), Razorgore the Untamed (Boss). Mage: Mind Quickening Gem (Trinkets), Vaelastrasz the Corrupt (Boss). Paladin: Scrolls of Blinding Light (Trinkets), Firemaw (Boss). Priest: Aegis of Preservation (Trinkets), Ebonroc (Boss). Rogue: Venomous Totem (Trinkets), Broodlord Lashlayer (Boss). Shaman: Natural Alignment Crystal (Trinkets), Firemaw (Boss). Warlock: The Black Book (Trinkets), Razorgore the Untamed (Boss). Warrior: Lifegiving Gem (Trinkets), Broodlord Lash layer (Boss). Overview Of Bosses As a team dungeon, Blackwing Lair’s quest route is basically linear. You and your team will encounter a total of 8 bosses in the dungeon: Razorgore the Untamed: In the first boss battle, you need to control Razorgore to destroy all the eggs before you can officially start the battle with Razorgore. Vaelastrasz the Corrupt: In the second boss battle, the player has three minutes to relieve Vaelastrasz the Corrupt from the pain, otherwise it will be enraged. Broodlord Lashlayer: The third boss battle, Broodlord Lashlayer will constantly affect the tanks on the team, reducing their threat. Firemaw: The fourth boss battle, it will use Shadow Flame, and players need Onyxia Scale Cloak to avoid this damage. Ebonroc: The fifth boss battle, it will also use Shadow Flame, players also need Onyxia Scale Cloak to avoid this damage, but also need to pay attention to its Shadow of Ebonroc skill. Flamegor: The sixth boss battle. It is one of the dragons that can use Shadow Flam, and it can also use Fire Nova skill. Hunters must use Tranquilizing Shot to deal with this skill. Chromaggus: The seventh boss battle. Chromaggus is Nefarian’s pet, and it has 5 breath methods, but only uses two of them in a battle. Nefarian: The last boss battle, he has two forms, human and dragon, he will Shadow Flame, and every 25 to 35 seconds, he will “summon” a class to make the class in your team affected by the debuff. The above is a brief introduction to Blackwing Lair. As a large-scale team dungeon, its difficulty is absolutely beyond doubt. You’d better be prepared before participating in this dungeon. It is recommended that you farm gold first and then upgrade weapons and equipment, at least so that your character can produce effective output to the boss or be able to withstand the damage of the boss.

As you explore World of Warcraft Classic 20th Anniversary, you’ll be asked to choose between being a Horde or an Alliance member, which will make a difference in the difficulty and storyline of your quests throughout the game. Horde quests tend to be pretty straightforward compared to the intricate and elaborate storylines that Alliance offers you. For example, go to a specific location and kill some boars for food, or kill the warlocks of Orgrimmar. But even among these very simple Horde quests, some can be very exciting exploration experiences. This guide will introduce you to some of the most worthwhile quests for you to try as a Horde in this WoW 20th Anniversary and some ways to complete them. 1. Lost In Battle Start Location: Barrens One of the most iconic quests in World of Warcraft Classic 20th is the Lost In Battle, also known as Mankrik’s Wife quest. Mankrik is an Orc who tells you that his wife died in a previous battle and asks you to help him find her body. In fact, this NPC is located far away from her wife’s body, and there is no accurate marker in the game to indicate the location of the body, only a Beaten Corpse. This may take a long time to find the exact location of the body, especially if you don’t have WoW Classic addons like Questie. But it will also give you more exploration experience in this very realistic Barrens, which will facilitate your farming of WoW 20th Anniversary Gold in it after reaching a higher level, because there are many suitable areas for farming. 2. Snapjaws, Mon! Start Location: Hinterlands Although Horde members cannot obtain as many unique and useful items as Alliance members in quests, such as Bag of Marbles or Light of Elune, they have a tremendous advantage in fishing, mainly thanks to the Snapjaws, Mon! Quest. Although this quest is very difficult to complete for Horde members, as it is located at the southeastern end of Hinterlands and mainly on the south coast, your character does not need to be trained in fishing to accept this quest from Fishing trainer in Revantusk Village, and any player can attempt it. After you kill 15 Snapjaws nearby, you will receive a very useful item: Nat Pagle’s Extreme Angler FC-5000, which will deal excellent buff to the level bracket, and will gain a huge buff to Fishing Skill when used for its intended purpose of fishing, directly increasing it by 25 points. If you are a player who loves fishing crazy in World of Warcraft Classic 20th Anniversary, then this quest that can provide you with a fishing rod that is more powerful than any other fishing rod is more worth exploring. 3. Archmage Arugal Questline Start Location: Silverpine Forest Archmage Arugal is one of the most hated characters in WoW Classic 20th because of his inextricable relationship with Worgen Curse that affects Silverpine Forest and its surrounding areas. Although Arugal was once a mage in Dalaran, he was not very powerful and could only rely on enchantments, which led to his companions in Kirin Tor turning against him. When Scourge attacked Gilneas, Arugal offered humans a way to resist the invading undead army by summoning Worgen. Although it successfully repelled Scourge, it also attacked humans and infected them. In this quest, you will put an end to this crazy mage’s rule over the area in one of the best dungeons designed in World of Warcraft. This will give you a very refreshing combat experience and you can get a lot of WoW 20th Anniversary Gold from it to enhance your character. 4. The Fallen Hero Of The Horde Quests Start Location: Blasted Lands In this multi-zone questline, you will uncover the story of a Fallen Hero Of The Horde who was killed in action in Blasted Lands. During Swamp of Sorrows quest, you will see this Orc ghost on the side of the road, heading south to Blasted Lands. You will then be sent to the nearby town of Stonard to talk to the survivors to learn more about the battle. Eventually you will be brought back to Fallen Hero of the Horde, who will tell you his full story: he was initially severely wounded in the battle, was taken prisoner and tortured by Burning Legion, and eventually some of his comrades were forced to become servants of three members of Burning Legion. This Orc is very sorry for his inaction and hopes that you can help free their eternal souls from this endless torment. The success of this questline is not that it leads to a series of quests in Blasted Lands, but that this epic quest chain will allow you to redeem a fallen hero successfully, and then make you feel like the most successful member of the Horde, and this sense of pride is irreplaceable. The above are some Horde quests that are worth trying in the current WoW Classic 20th Anniversary. Of course, every player will have their own criteria, but it is worth affirming that some quests require you to have a very powerful build, so if you are short of Gold in the process of making a build, you can enter the giveaway channel in iGMeet Discord to enrich your inventory. I wish you a happy game!

It’s been a while since WoW Classic 20th Anniversary was released, so how’s your character leveling while revisiting Classic? If you’re looking for the best way to level up quickly, then don’t miss us! Whether you’re a new player who just got into the game, or an old player who’s planning to start over with an alt character, this guide will help you reach the highest level in the shortest time! Let’s get straight into it! Preparation Before you start leveling, there are a few things to mention that can help you level up faster. First, let’s talk about Heirlooms. Now, they no longer provide any XP boost. However, if you level them up to level 70, they do save you time by not having to deal with changing gear all the time. Now, this may actually be the only reason you want to get Heirlooms. If you don’t have this problem, we don’t recommend wasting your WoW 20th Anniversary Gold on it. Now, there is also a potion called Draught of Ten Lands. This potion gives you a 10% XP boost and is only available up to level 49, but it still works after level 49. If you are Alliance and Dazar’alor, or Horde, you can get it in Boralus for five medals. In addition, WoW 20th Anniversary also gives us the classic Timewalking Dungeons. These dungeons are very simple, and completing them will give you a lot of XP. Now, the best part is that they are immediately available at level ten. This means that you can visit Timewalking Dungeons every week, which is great for leveling up characters. Then, there is also a new achievement in the game, which is a bit like the old Heirloom. This achievement basically gives you an increased XP buff for your entire account, and every time you bring a character to the level cap, your account will get a 5% buff. Sadly, the cap is now 25%, hopefully they will remove the cap so that people with a lot of max-level characters can go crazy! Finally, I guess you also want to check out Darkmoon Faire. It’s available every first Sunday of every month and gives you an extra 10% boost. Now, with all these XP boosts, let’s get started with leveling. Levels 1-10 First, let’s emphasize that this section is only for those who don’t plan on leveling up an Allied Race, since those characters are already starting at level 10. Now, when you create a new character, you can choose to level up in your race, the starting area, or Exile’s Reach. I highly recommend starting with Exile’s Reach because this is basically a newer beginner area that you can get through very quickly. And it’s a small area where you can complete some simple quests and pick up some WoW 20th Gold and treasure along the way. The best part is that Exile’s Reach can be completed in under an hour, and depending on your class, it could be even faster. Levels 10-20 After completing Exile’s Reach or creating an Allied Race, head to Anniversary area in Tanaris to get an extra 10% XP boost, then grab Pet Mirror and use it on your pet. There are two methods we can use to reach level 20. The first is by completing Timewalking Dungeons, as we mentioned before, these dungeons reward a ton of XP, and the queue times are pretty good right now. While this may change over time, at the moment even as a DPS, it only takes 2 to 5 minutes of queue time, which can help you farm XP very efficiently. The only downside right now is that you can get stuck in a group if they don’t know what to do, and especially for tank characters, you can spend quite a bit of time in a dungeon. So if you’re the only class that can tank, and you know what you’re doing, then I highly recommend trying the other method, which is to queue up as a tank and farm dungeons all the way to level 20. That way when you don’t feel like sitting in queue forever or dealing with people, you can just start quests in Legion timeline. First, we have to go to Codex of Chromie and select Legion timeline, then we need to do quests around in Azsuna or Val’sharah until we reach level 20. It’s worth noting that Dragonriding is now available from level 10, which means we can fly from one mission to another very quickly. In addition, if you find Legion Invasions on the map, be sure to complete all the world quests in the invasion area, they will give you a lot of XP and allow you to reach level 20 in a short time. Levels 20-50 Next, the first thing you have to do to reach level 50 is to enable War Mode to get an additional 10% XP boost. With War Mode enabled, we will be able to use Chromie time to level up in the old classic areas. It is recommended that you can go to the Cataclysm timeline, because there are a lot of simple tasks in these old areas that can be completed quickly. What’s more, because we can now access Dragonriding immediately, it usually only takes about 2 and a half hours for Alliance characters to complete all the tasks in Redridge Mountains and Loch Modan and reach level 50 and above. Like we said before, your level may vary depending on your XP gain, but reaching level 40 and above should not be a problem. Also, previously we mentioned Draught of Ten Lands, which is only available until level 49. But here’s a trick: if you drink it before you reach level 50, the buff will refresh and remain active. This means it will continue to work even after level 49. Now, Horde characters can do quests in Silverpine Forest, Hillsbrad Foothills, and then Arathi Highlands or Hinterlands areas. This is basically how to get past level 50 quickly. With all XP buffs, you can basically reach level 50 in less than 3 hours. Levels 50-60 After completing all the quests in the three areas we mentioned earlier, we want to go back to Chromie and re-select our timeline. Now, regardless of your faction, you will want to complete the introductory quests because they can be completed very quickly and will give you a lot of XP. After completing the entire quest, however, it is recommended that you continue to do quests until your Garrisons are set up. After that, you can fly directly to Gorgrond simply by completing Gorgrond’s introductory quest and three side quests. If you don’t get the 25% XP boost you get from leveling five characters to the top, just keep completing Gorgrond’s side quests and bonus objectives until you reach level 60. It took us a total of three hours of playtime to reach level 60, not including the time it took to set up XP buff at the beginning. If you’re fast enough, maybe your Draught of Ten Lands won’t expire yet! But anyway, at the end of the day, it all comes down to what you enjoy most. There are many ways to level up quickly, but if you don’t like the idea of ​​quickly completing quests or the leveling area I recommend, then go to another area. Whether it’s queuing for dungeons or taking on bosses, do whatever you want, because eventually you’ll still reach level 60. The most important thing is that you’re still doing what you want to do in WoW 20th Anniversary and enjoying it. Hope you have a great day!
