"The Fastest Path to 60!"

In this part of the guide we once again return to the jungles of Stranglethorn Vale. As with our other visits to the jungle, be extremely careful in this zone if you are on a PvP server.

This time we are going to finish off the hunting quests in the north and then start clearing the center of the zone as well. As mentioned previously I really like the zone and have been know to spend almost my whole time from level 30 to 44 in the jungle. While I have mixed in other zones in this guide, you really could stay here and grind through all the levels to the mid 40's in the zone.

Level Thirty Eight to Forty

If you did not go through and complete the Scarlet Monastery instance yet (as recommended in the previous part of the guide), you really should. By completing the three main wings at this level you will gain almost a complete level, and it can be done in about 3 hours.

You can find a complete guide to the instance here: Ten Ton Hammer's Guide to Scarlet Monastery.

Start off in Booty Bay and accept the following quests before flying to Grom'Gol Base Camp: "The Bloodsail Buccaneers", "Scaring Shaky", and "Venture Company Mining".
In Grom'gol Base Camp turn in "The Troll Witchdoctor" and then get "Marg Speaks" and "Mok'thardin's Enchantment".
Travel just south of the camp, between the camp and the arena to find the Jungle Stalker Raptors for "Raptor Mastery" and the basilisks for "Mok'thardin's Enchantment".

This is a great grinding spot, and I always grind here for a while. Stay here until you are at least a few bubbles into level 39. Don't worry it doesn't take long.

Next travel east to the mountains to do "Venture Company Mining". It is located near 40,40 and is also a great grinding spot as they have low health as well.
Move north along the mountains until you find the panther Bhag'thera which can be around 1 of two possible spawn points: 48,26 and 48,20. This will complete "Panther Mastery".
Return to the hunters camp at the north of the zone to turn in your hunting quests and get the new parts, then return to Grom'gol Base Camp to turn in "Mok'thardins Enchantment" and get the following part of the chain which has the same name.
Travel south to a camp just north of Booty Bay. Look for the barrel in the camp at 27,69 and get the note off of it to complete "The Bloodsail Buccaneers".
Next head east across the road to find Shaky at 27,74 to complete "Scaring Shaky" and "Mok'Thardin's Enchantment". Also get the "Return to MacKinley" quest.
Return to Booty Bay and turn in "Venture Mining Company", "The Bloodsail Buccaneers", and "Return to MacKinley". Get the followup for the buccaneers chain and then talk to Seahorn in town to complete it.
Return to the Grom'gol Base Camp to turn in "Mok'thardin's Enchantment".
At this point you should be level 40. If not go back to grind some more mobs or check out some of the instances you have not done yet. Once you hit level 40, return to the Undercity and train then get ready for a long trek to the Badlands.
