Zone Guide

The Barrens is the second zone that non-undead Horde characters usually encounter. Orcs and Trolls will move here from Durotar to the East and Tauren from Mulgore to the West.

For all races, the first task is to travel to the Crossroads to obtain the flightpath. From Durotar, the road from Razor Hill continues westward into The Barrens, intersecting with the Gold Road. From this intersection the South Gold Road leads to the Crossroads. From Mulgore the road leads through Camp Taurajo and intersects with the Gold Road. From this intersection the North Gold Road leads to the Crossroads.

The Crossroads is a convenient bind point for many levels, providing a convenient flight origin for many destinations beyond the Barrens itself. With 10 flight paths, you can get almost everywhere on the continent.

Materials: Alchemy - Peacebloom, Silverleaf, Earthroot all over, Kingsblood, Mageroyal, Grave Moss in the southern areas. Mining - Copper all over, some Tin veins in the oases and in the southern areas.

Silver Mobs:
Rathorian (found in Dreadmist Den, on top of Dredmist Peak)
Takk the Leaper (north part of the zone, on the area bewteen Durotar and the Boulder Lode Mine area)
