So if you have a particular like race in mind, you can definitely try it, unless you want to complete Molten Core raid better.
It is also worth noting that the races available will be different depending on whether you are Alliance or Horde. Therefore, we will introduce you to the major races in WoW Classic 20th Anniversary, using Alliance and Horde as classification standards.
Alliance Races

2. Night Elf

That’s it for all the playable races in WoW Classic 20th Anniversary. Thanks for reading.

WoW Classic 20th Anniversar ...
As a long-standing but still very popular old MMORPG, the commemorative craze brought by the 20th anniversary celebration of World of Warcraft, which began in 2024, has been successfully continued to this day through Classic 20th Anniversary server and will continue to receive updates! In order to ensure that WoW Classic 20th can continue to attract new and old players to join, the game will be released in 6 phases in sequence. Currently in progress is phase 2, which started on January 9, but soon you will usher in the exciting phase 3 on March 20. The core new content of phase 3 is expected to be Blackwing Lair and Darkmoon Faire. Fortunately, we have brought you information about Blackwing Lair based on predictions not long ago, so this time we will focus on helping you prepare for the experience of Darkmoon Faire. What Is Darkmoon Faire? You can think of Darkmoon Faire as an event in WoW 20th Anniversary, which is usually held once a month and is open in only one place at a time - the location usually rotates between Elwynn Forest and Mulgore. There are many exotic merchants who will travel with Darkmoon Faire’s owner Silas Darkmoon to bring you goodies that you can’t usually see. At that time, you will be able to exchange the goods you want through WoW Anniversary Gold or Darkmoon Faire tickets. Specific Opening Time Of Darkmoon Faire The opening time of the faire is usually scheduled on the first day of each month, and it is guaranteed to be Monday as much as possible, so it may start setting up at the end of the previous month or even open directly. If you want to participate in this event, you must pay more attention to the key time nodes. Since the opening time of phase 3 of WoW 20th Anniversary is March 20, this time it may be opened in advance on the basis of the end of the month to allow you to experience it. Generally speaking, Darkmoon Faire will arrive at the corresponding location on Friday and start setting up on the weekend, then open on next Monday, and last for a week until the next Sunday. It should be noted that during the faire setup period from Friday to next Monday, although you will see members busy setting up, you cannot participate in it. If you are afraid of missing the event, don’t worry, the crier Melnan Darkstone from Ironforge and Kruban Darkblade from Orgrimmar will announce the arrival of the faire for you after Darkmoon Faire opens. How To Find Darkmoon Faire? Darkmoon Faire will only be held alternately in Elwynn Forest and Mulgore, the former is located near Goldshire and the latter is southwest of Thunder Bluff. It is worth noting that the specific route to go will vary depending on your faction identity. Horde Players Route If you are a Horde player, it will be easier to reach Darkmoon Faire when it in Elwynn Forest. The following is a specific route that can avoid Alliance guards: Go to the airship platform in Ogrimmar or Undercity and take the airship to Grom’gol Base Camp in Stranglethorn Vale. Once you reach Grom’gol, walk northeast from the camp. Turn left at the first T-junction and continue north until you pass through Duskwood. You may find a small Alliance guard camp near the intersection of the east and west roads on the right side of the road. You can turn west to avoid this, but be careful not to turn onto the road. Instead, walk north between Duskwood and Raven Hill Cemetery. You will then encounter a river, with the estimated coordinates being around Duskwood 30,24. Cross the river to enter Elwynn Forest. Continue walking north, keeping Maclure Vineyards on your right, and you will soon see Darkmoon Faire site. Alliance Players Route If you are an Alliance player, you may encounter Horde guards when going to Darkmoon Faire in Mulgore, but it’s okay as long as you are more careful. The route we recommend next is more suitable for Alliance players above level 40, because it is more timesaving but risky, and low-level players may not be able to deal with it. Once you reach Menethil Harbor in Wetlands, take a boat to Theramore. Once you reach Theramore, head northwest into Dustwallow Marsh, then west toward Barrens. Once you enter Barrens, head west, then north on the main road, and when you see Camp Taurajo, turn west toward the mountains, and just south of Camp Taurajo, take the other road west to Mulgore. Shortly after entering Mulgore you will see a small dirt road heading north, just east of a pond, keep the pond to your left and follow it until you find the road north again, and then you can enter Darkmoon Faire. Darkmoon Decks And Cards This should be the item you should focus on when participating in Darkmoon Faire event. Because at the market brought by Darkmoon Faire, there are some epic items that can only be exchanged through Darkmoon decks and cards. Once you have the cards, you will need to assemble them into 4 decks and present them to Professor Thaddeus Paleo in Darkmoon Faire. These 4 decks are: Beasts Deck Elementals Deck Portals Deck Warlords Deck We hope that this information will help you have a great time playing Darkmoon Faire once phase 3 arrives. Thank you for reading.Mar-18-2025

WoW Classic 20th Anniversar ...
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.Feb-23-2025

WoW Classic 20th Anniversar ...
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!Feb-18-2025

WoW Classic 20th Anniversar ...
With the 20th anniversary, World of WarCraft series launched a new anniversary server on November 21: WoW Classic 20th Anniversary, and it is progressing smoothly. As a result, you will find that many new characters can also take this opportunity to level up in the early game. Although the leveling process of WoW Classic is slow, with the 20th Anniversary version, you can actually level up faster than usual if you choose the right zone. WoW series has many zones covering the entire two continents, but not all of them provide you with the same leveling bonus. Although the new zones brought by WoW Classic 20th Anniversary may make you want to try to challenge those less common zones, if you also plan to reach the end of the game as soon as possible, those destinations that provide rich trials and allow you to get a lot of WoW Classic 20th Anniversary Gold and XP drops can speed up the process. Based on this, we will provide you with some valuable references for choosing zones for leveling up. What Are The Characteristics Of The Zone Suitable For Leveling Up? In fact, all great leveling zones have their own characteristics. Leveling in WoW Classic used to rely more on defeating monsters to gain XP, which was reflected in the quest design as a variation in killing and gathering quests. Quests are a luxury for zones, and not every zone has the same number of quests that can provide you with monster grinding. In WoW series, one of the core components of a good leveling zone is many quests, because only in this way can you be guided and rewarded enough XP. And unlike zone balance and the ever-increasing WoW leveling speed, zone selection can make the standard glacial speed feel less overwhelming. Now to further improve the efficiency of WoW Classic 20th Anniversary zones, top questing zones will have both high quest and monster density. And since you can’t unlock ground mounts until level 40, if you want to pick the best leveling zone, you also need to consider the amount of travel - quests and objectives are best when they can be put together. In fact, by minimizing downtime, you can easily flow between quests and zones. Don’t forget to make sure you’re also leveling up your professions as you travel between zones, as keeping professions in sync with your character level can minimize backtracking to save you time. Best Leveling Zones For Horde Players If you’re a Horde player, then after leaving the three starting zones, it’s recommended that you prioritize The Barrens as your next destination. Not only is it the most classic leveling zone in WoW Classic 20th Anniversary, it’s also full of rich and challenging content and supports level 10-25. It’s worth mentioning that The Barrens chat is also one of the most active chats in the history of WoW series, because there are so many quests, players, and content here. In addition, another benefit of The Barrens is that it is the first dungeon worth entering as a Horde player, and it’s just a few minutes away from your initial quest center. In The Barrens, Hillsbrad Foothills is a solid choice to fill the level gap between quests. Nearly every quest is located in the central hub, Tarren Mill: Shadowfang Keep is located in nearby Silverpine Forest, which can provide you with some nice early-game gear if you’re an intellect user; the West Needles zone in Thousand Needles can fill the level gap in The Barrens, as it’s close to The Barrens. Best Leveling Zones For Alliance Players Since Alliance zones were created earlier, you’ll find that you’ll feel more guided when choosing a leveling zone if you’re an Alliance player. After completing the three respective starting zones, Elywnn Forest, Teldrassil, and Dun Murough, you can head to Westfall. Westfall is essentially a perpetual autumn farmland besieged by bandits, with iconic visuals and storylines. Of course, it also has a surprisingly large density of mobs and quests to keep you leveling up, as well as access to loot-rich Deadmines. Before you head into Deadmines, though, don’t forget to complete the long quest chain starting with The Defias Brotherhood to get a huge chunk of Classic 20th Anniversary Gold. Westfall has a lot of plot lines that are intertwined with the surrounding zones of Duskwood and Redridge. So not only can you easily move between zones to make up for level gaps, but you can also get attractive rewards after completing the related quests. In fact, there is a lot of fluidity between the three zones, and if you want to level up quickly as an Alliance player, it’s best to find a way to get into these three closely connected zones as soon as possible. Obviously, depending on which faction you play, there are different zones suitable for you to level up quickly in WoW Classic 20th Anniversary. If you also want to get some free props to help with the leveling quest, you can enter the giveaway channel of iGMeet Discord and pay attention to the game giveaway information there.
