You should have the following two quests:
- [75] Into the Breach!
- [74] To Conquest Hold, But Be Careful!
If you don’t have them, it’s not a big deal, but they’re easily attainable. Just go to my Dragonblight guide and search for them with your browser’s search function (CTRL + F).
Time to go to Grizzly Hills.
Fly to Venomspite.
Ride east until you enter Grizzly Hills.
In Grizzly Hills, ride east to Conquest Hold (21,63).

Get the new flight path.
==Note== Kill Graymist Hunters on the way.
1. Get out of Conquest Hold by the southern gate.
Ride east to to Raider Captain Kronn (26.5,67).
==Warning== This is a PvP Daily Quest. It’s very quick, easy and rewarding, and there most likely won’t even be any PvP involved. So I suggest doing it. However, if you don’t want to have anything to do with PvP, you can skip this and go to the next circuit. This quest doesn’t count towards the zone quest achievement, but it does count for the Daily PvP Quest Achievement: Grizzled Veteran. So it’s up to you!
Get the quest [74] Blackriver Brawl.
2. Go to the isle northeast and kill 10 Alliance Units or Players.
Go back to Raider Captain Kronn, turn in [74] Blackriver Brawl.
1. Southeast you should see a bridge.
Cross it and then go northeast to an area with a lot of Tallhorn Stags (34,65).
Stay there and kill Tallhorn Stags until you finish [74] Supplemental Income.
2. Ride southwest to Voldrune (31,75). Two objectives here:
- Kill 12 Dragonflayer Huscarls
- Kill Dragonflayer Flamebinders until you’ve looted 3 Flame-Imbued Talismans
3. Go northwest and cross the same bridge again.
Kill Graymist Hunters until you finish [74] Gray Worg Hides on your way back to Conquest Hold.
In Conquest Hold, turn in:

- [74] Gray Worg Hides, get [74] A Minor Substitution
- [74] A Show of Strength
- [74] The Flamebinders’ Secret, get [74] The Thane of Voldrune
==Warning== PvP Daily Quest Circuit. Skip this circuit and the next one if you don’t want any PvP. However please note that [74] Seeking Solvent counts for the zone quest achievement. Those quests are really quickly done and give 20K XP each, so I recommend doing them, even if you dislike pvp.
1. Ride southwest to Venture Bay. The horde quest hub is on the western side of Venture Bay (11,77).
Get the 4 daily pvp quests:
- [74] Seeking Solvent
- [74] Keep Them at Bay!
- [74] Smoke ‘Em Out
- [74] Crush Captain Brightwater!
1. Go east to the area north of the docks in venture bay.
Enter the first building you encounter at (14,77).
Inside the building you should see Venture Co. Stragglers.
Use the Smoke Bomb on them.
Tip: Just run in the building, gather them all in one bunch and then use the Smoke Bomb on them.
2. Go to the next two buildings to the east and do the same thing.
==Note== Kill Alliance Units & Players on the way
You should be done with [74] Smoke ‘Em Out very quickly if you bomb the 3 buildings.
3. Go to the easternmost ship. On the main deck you’ll find Captain Brightwater (17,81.5). He’s elite but should be easily soloable for any class. Just make sure you pull him solo.
HP: 30,000
Avg. Hit on Cloth: 800
Can be slowed, stunned, feared.
Now Finish [74] Keep Them at Bay! before going to the next step.
4. Go to the middle ship (16,80). It’s the same model as the boat from Booty Bay to Ratchet.
Go inside the cabin and clear the way to the last room.
==Warning== I really mean CLEAR the way. Kill all the Venture Co. in your way, even if you are a stealth class.
Once the way is clear, go to the last room where you should see the Element 115.
Loot it. You’ll get the following debuff:
That means it’s useless to mount or to sprint or anything like that. Just run straight back to the quest NPCs. You have only 3 Minutes to get there.
Go as fast as you can, avoid fights, and turn in [74] Seeking Solvent first.
Then turn in the other 3 quests:
- [74] Keep Them at Bay!
- [74] Smoke ‘Em Out
- [74] Crush Captain Brightwater!
Hearthstone back to Conquest Hold (or ride back if you’re HS is on cooldown).
1. Ride southeast, cross the bridge and go to Voldrune.
This time clear the way towards the southwestern part of Voldrune, where you should find a chained proto-drake called Flamebringer (26,80).
Now check out my video on how to do this quest, it will make it much easier, as it’s kinda buggy and tricky at the moment. The only difference is that you should fly back to Conquest Hold at the end of the video, instead of towards Venture Bay.
I recommend watching the video in High Quality.

Outside of the Conquest Hold Pit, there should be a new quest available, but don’t take it yet.
Optional: [74] The Conquest Pit
[74] The Conquest Pit: Bear Wrestling! is the first step of a chain similar to the Ring of Blood quest chain in Nagrand.
So you will need a group for it. You don’t need a full group though, 3 player is more than enough:
1 healer, 1 tank or pet class and 1 DPS class to make it faster.
==Note== Certain classes might be able to solo the first 3 bosses depending on their gear (Death Knights, Hunters, Warlocks with Voidwalker tanking, Feral Druids, Paladins, Shamans with Earth Elemental Totem up), but not the last 2 quests in the chain.
So I recommend finding a group for it, it’s really much easier and faster that way.
Proceed with the guide and keep on looking for a group for this quest chain.
Once you have a group, have your tank accept the quest first (that way, he’ll get the initial aggro), and check the info below about the bosses you’ll have to fight:
1st boss: Ironhide. Easy tank and spank battle.
2nd boss: Torgg Thundertotem. Do NOT destroy the Fire Nova Totems. They do 8K damage if you destroy them, so leave them alone and MOVE AWAY from them before they explode. The Furbolg can be interrupted and stunned.
3rd boss: Rustblood. Simple tank and spank. Knockbacks and attacks the 2nd person highest on the threat list. So make sure your tank is awake.
4th boss: Horgrenn Hellcleave. He charges people which are out of his melee range randomly. So have everyone stay close to him and he won’t charge anyone. However, he also does a Whirlwind, quickly move away from him when he does that. When he’s done with Whirlwind, go back in close melee range.
5th boss: Krenna. This one is actually easier than the previous two bosses. It’s a simple tank and spank fight and you also get help from Gorgonna.

2. Follow this path up and you’ll find Tur Ragepaw (52,24).
Now before you talk to him, read the following paragraph.
Despite being a 3-man group quest, [75] Ursoc, the Bear God is soloable for tank and healer classes if you use the help of Tur Ragepaw correctly.
- If you are a tank or pet class (Protection Warrior, Paladin, Feral Druid, Death Knight, Hunter, Warlock). Tell Tur Ragepaw “We could use a healer“. He will heal your tank or your pet through the fight.
- If you are a healer class, tell Tur Ragepaw “Assume your druidic bear form, Tur.” And he will tank for you as long as you keep him alive with your heals.
- For other classes/specs it might be too difficult to solo the quest. With my mage in quest greens I couldn’t do it. It might be possible for rogues and dps warriors if they ask Tur Ragepaw to assume the role of a healer, depending on gear.
If you can’t solo it, try to look for a group. Duo’ing this quest should be easy.
==WARNING== During the fight, Ursoc will release a small black sludge called Blood of the Old God. Kill it ASAP, it only has 2K HPs, but it’s very annoying (does 1K damage + stun every 5 seconds or so).
After the fight is over, target Ursoc’s corpse and use the Purified Ashes of Vordrassil.
==Note== You can also use the Purified Ashes of Vordrassil on the corpse even if someone else killed Ursoc.
If you can’t find a group, just save this quest for when you reach level 80.
Go turn in [75] Ursoc, the Bear God whenever you’re close to Conquest Hold or when your hearthstone is ready. I won’t tell you when to turn it in in the guide, so it’s up to you.

Look for Drakkari Canopic Jars:
Loot 5 of them.
3. Go deeper in the catacombs until you see a yellow “!” on your minimap (69.5,17.5). If there’s no “!” on the minimap, it means someone else is doint the escort quest, so you’ll have to wait a little.
Go to that room and you’ll find Drakkari Tablets in a corner:
Loot the Drakkari Tablets.
Now talk to Harrison Jones and start the escort quest [75] Dun-da-Dun-tah!
It’s an easy escort quest as long as you let Harrison Jones tank the elite snake for you.

- [74] Search and Rescue
- [75] Cleansing Drak’Tharon
So from now on, if you feel like it, you should look for a group for Drak’Tharon Keep. It’s a very nice instance for level 74-76 players, I recommend it.
If you don’t feel like it or if you don’t find a group, you can abandon [74] Search and Rescue, it can easily be picked up in the future at the Granite Springs, if you change your mind. However, do not abandon [75] Cleansing Drak’Tharon, as it’s rather annoying to get that quest again if you abandon it.
2. Ride southeast back to Harkor’s Camp. Turn in:
- [75] Therapy
- [75] Dun-da-Dun-tah!
- [75] It Takes Guts…, get [75] Drak’aguul’s Mallet
Optional: [75] Hour of the Worg
This group quest is supposedly soloable by certain classes (Death Knights, Paladins, Hunters, Warlocks, Druids, etc). But it’s of course much easier to get a 2 or 3-man team for it.
So look for a group while following the rest of my guide, and when you find a group, come back to this section.
1. Swim northeast to Bloodmoon Isle (83,28).
2. Follow the path up and there will be a camp to your right, where you should find a big worgen called Selas (85.5,27.5). Kill it.
3. Get back on the path and further up to your left you’ll find another camp, where you will find Varlam (85,24). Kill him.
4. Once you reach the top of the hill, go around to the tower towards the southern side and you’ll find a big worg called Goremaw. Kill it.
5. Enter the tower, fight your way to the top. There you will find the Shade of Arugal.
Shade of Arugal Strategy
HP: 107,000
Phase 1: Shadowbolts for ~1500 dmg. Goes to Phase 2 at 75-70% HP.
Phase 2: Becomes invulnerable and summons 3 adds. Kill the adds to go back to Phase 1. When he hits 50% HP, he goes to Phase 3.
Phase 3: Becomes invulnerable again. Mind controls a party member which you’ll have to bring down to 35% health.
Once you break the Mind Control, Arugal goes back to Phase 1.
Bring him down to 25% HP and he’ll go to Phase 4.
Phase 4: It’s just like Phase 2, but with 9 adds instead of 3.
Kill the adds, then kill Arugal.
Sasha will show up and help you finish him off during the last phase. After the fight is over, turn in [75] Hour of the Worg.
1. Now look for Drak’aguul. A big troll who spawns at (74,30) and patrols on the path towards Drakil’jin Ruins.

2. Ride to Drakil’jin Ruins, go to the gongs infront of the catacombs entrance (71.5,25):

3. Go inside the catacombs and go deeper until you find Gan’jo.
Turn in [75] See You on the Other Side, get [75] Chill Out, Mon.

- If it doesn’t work, the giant will attack you but will be in a much weaker state. So you’ll just have to re-use Gavrock’s Runebreaker until it works. Meanwhile, try to stun or to kite the giant until the item cools down.
