"The Fastest Path to 60!"

Yet again we are going to return to the jungles of Stranglethorn Vale. This time we are going to concentrate on the southern and eastern coasts. Since this is such a good zone to level in, take the opportunity to grind out some experience yet again while here. Once done there, we will take a quick run to Dustwallow Marsh to do a few quick quests.

You should be 42 when starting this section and your goal is to get at least 1/2 of the way into level 43 before finishing. As always, further is better, but depends on how much grinding you do.

Level Forty Two to Forty Three

In Grom'gol get the quests "Split Bone Necklace" (assuming you don't have it already) and "Mok'thardin's Enchantment" and then fly south to Booty Bay.

While in Booty Bay collect all the quests there, which should include: "The Bloodsail Buccaneers", "Up to Snuff", "Keep an Eye Out", "Akiris by the Bundle", and "Voodoo Dues".

All four of the next areas are excellent grinding spots and you should try to get to level 43 between the 4 grinding opportunities. All offer decent money making and experience opportunities so just do a little at each.

The best situation is to combine all the areas to get as far into level 43 as you can without getting bored. As stated above, my goal is about 1/3rd into 43.

Move out of town and head to the beach to the south of town. There you should be able to complete the following three quests: "The Bloodsail Buccaneers", "Up to Snuff", and "Keep an Eye Out".
Move up the east coast to the temple along the edge of the coast and the temple just inland to complete "Zanzil's Secret" and "Voodoo Dues".
From here travel north to the troll ruins just south of the Mosh'ogg Ogre Mound to finish "Skullsplitter Tusks" and "Split Bone Necklace".
Now move to the island along the west coast just north of Booty Bay to finish "Mok'Thardin's Secret" and "Akiris by the Bundle".
Return to Booty Bay and turn in all your quests there and then fly to Grom'gol and do the same.
Take the zeppelin back across to Orgrimmar and then fly south to Dustwallow Marsh to get ready for the next section of our guide.

When you land in Brackenwall Village collect the following quests: "Army of the Black Dragon","Identifying the Brood" and "Overlord Mok'Morokk's Concern".

Then travel slightly south east to 40,36 to find the NPC there and accept "Questioning Reethe".

Travel south and east to 46,82 to complete the "Identifying the Brood " and "Army of the Black Dragon".
Move to the north west to complete "Overlord Mok'Morokk's Concern". You can find the various items at the following locations: Grog - 38,65; Snuff - 22,66; Strongbox - 36,99.
Return to the village and turn in all your quests and accept "The Brood of Onyxia" and complete its various easy stages.
Next we will move onto the desert of Tanaris to the south. This next area can keep us busy for a long time and has many quests scattered throughout the zone.
