Alliance Zul'Drak Guide Part 1
Level 76

A note: you may be level 77 by now, in which case before you enter Zul'Drak, you should learn Cold Weather Flying, and purchase your epic flying mount if you have enough gold for it. If you're not level 77 yet, or lack the funds to purchase an epic flying mount, don't worry about the below part in italics.

Flying Mount Instructions If Level 77:

For those who are truly diligent and have followed the Gold Guide and have not yet received Cold Weather Flying and their Epic Flying Mount, you'll have a nice stash of gold to purchase your Epic Flying Mount and be able to train Cold Weather Flying (Cost: 5,000g training + 1,000g Cold Weather training + 100g for the mount). If not, there's no better time to start the gold guide than now, to make sure that you'll at least be able to fly in style starting at level 80! Simply take the portal to Shattrath City from Dalaran, then fly to Honor Hold.

Then, take a portal to a Capital City and train your skills.

Hearth back to Dalaran.

Note that you should also train Cold Weather Flying from the riding trainer at Dalaran by the flight master at Krasus' Landing.

If you're not level 77, that's to be expected - the above is just in case you are. If not 77, just take a portal to a Capital City and train your skills, then Hearth back to Dalaran.

Onwards to Zul'Drak!

(Optional but Highly Recommended - Group) A note as you enter Zul'Drak - you may remember the Ring of Blood quest series from Nagrand. In Zul'Drak, there's once again a series of arena fights which is just like the Ring of Blood - its a series called The Amphitheater of Anguish. As soon as you enter the zone, look out for people looking for more for the "Ring of Blood" or "Amphitheater" or "Arena" quests. Find a group of five people with a tank and healer.

The process of making sure the entire group starts and completes the quest together is having one person be the designated quest starter. Have everybody gather around the quest giver, then one person starts the quest, which will allow everyone to start the quest. Then, after making sure everybody's turned in the quest, the quest starter starts the next quest, and so on and so on.

With a group of five with a tank and a healer, it will be the fastest burst of experience that is in the game, 192,900 XP in just minutes, along with an extremely good weapon, and about 120 Gold! Keep an eye out for groups throughout your entire time in Zul'Drak because there are no pre-requisites. If you find a group, go there and then continue questing where you left off.
