"The Fastest Path to 60!"
For this part of the guide we travel into the Hinterlands. You will make your home in the troll village of Revantusk along the coast and can get almost a full two levels while here. There is allot to do here, so you should not get bored as you will be too busy running all over the place.
While in the Hinterlands you will work through the remainder of level 46 and most of level 47.

Head to the Quel'Danil Lodge at 29,47 for "Message to the Wildhammer", "Lines of Communication" and lastly the escort quest leading out of the area "Rin'ji is Trapped" which starts at 30,48. At some point you should have obtained the "OOX-09/HL Distress Beacon" item will drop which starts "Find OOX-09/HL!". You can find him near 49,38 to complete the quest. Next travel east to 86,60 to turn in "Rin'ji is Trapped" and then accept the next part in the chain "Rin'ji's Secret", then return to Revantusk Village. While in the village turn in all your quests. At this point you should be level 47, if you are not, head back into the wilds and grind out some experience then travel to the Undercity to turn in "Lines of Communication" and "Rin'ji's Secret". From the Undercity grab the Zepplin to Stranglethorn Vale to finish off a few quests there before heading into the Searing Gorge.Comments or questions?
