There are multiple quests to get ready for WoW Season of Discovery Phase 2 for Alliance and Horde factions. I have put together a guide with many things you can farm that will begin a quest. This allows you to get even more experience, so you can also get ahead of the competition and reach Level 40 even quicker. Don't forget to bring enough WoW SOD Gold with you if you get in trouble when doing these quests.

Alliance & Horde Quests

There are some quests for both Alliance and Horde can do and I really recommend to you players.

Glowing Shard

When you slay the final boss in the dungeon Wailing Caverns that is located in Barrens, you can also loot the Glowing Shard. This can be looted by both factions at the Phase 2 launch day. You then want to head to Ratchet and begin the quest. Next, you’ve got to speak to the Sputtervalve that is located close to the flight master. Ask for more information about the Glowing Shard. Next, you will have to head back to Wailing Caverns or well on top of the dungeon.

At this mountain area on top of the mountain, there will be a small building, and in here you will find a Tauren. Both factions can speak to the Tauren. When you hand in the quest, you will also get a follow-up that will either tell you to head to the Darnassus as an Alliance player or Thunder Bluff as a Horde player.

Warsong Outrider Mark

You should also head to Ashenvale and do the World PVP event. When you kill the different guards, you can also obtain the Warsong Outrider Mark, an item that will also begin a quest. This quest item you hand in at Ashenvale, and it will reward you with experience and also an item that will increase your damage and healing by 5% for 2 hours.

Prefect Blackfathom Pearl

When you slay the final encounter in BFD, you also have a chance to obtain this item called Prefect Blackfathom Pearl. It begins a quest, and it will most likely not reward you with any experience. However, you will get a world buff that will last for 2 hours. So having this item in your inventory allows you to go to the Darnassus or Thunder Bluff. Activate the item, and get a new world buff. But remember, you can only do it once, but it will provide a buff to anyone in those main cities.

Cortello's Riddle

In the southern part of Stranglethorn Vale, there are 3 pirate ships. On these ships, you can obtain Cortello's Riddle, an item that begins a quest at Level 35. But you can obtain this item no matter what level you are. You can solo this if you play a class with a pet. Else, it’s way more efficient to find someone else and do it together.

Then one player could, for example, be standing on top of objects and prevent the monsters from hitting them. And you can then loot the riddle. The reason why you want to focus on doing this is because it starts a big quest chain that will reward a lot of experience. And at the end, you can also get yourself a 14-slot bag.

Another way to loot the riddle is simply just to use defensive cooldowns. As a rogue, for example, use Evasion. As a Paladin, you could use Bubble. And meanwhile, the other player at your party is going to loot the riddle.

Alliance Only Quests

Next are some quests only for Alliance:

An Unsent Letter

As an Alliance, you should head into Deadmines and slay the final boss. Here you can obtain An Unsent Letter that will begin a quest that you hand in in Stormwind City. And there’s also going to be a follow-up for the dungeon.

Book: The Powers Below

In the southern part of Darkshore, there’s an area where you can loot the Book: The Powers Below. The drop chance is low, and I would highly recommend you to do this with someone else. It took me more than 50 kills to obtain this. The good thing, however, is that it's shared. So if it drops for someone at your party, then all of you will loot it. Even though you loot this in Darkshore, then you hand it in in Ironforge.

An Old History Book

An Old History Book is an item you can obtain from pretty much every single creature in Duskwood. It’s a low drop chance, but still something you should be farming and prioritize getting.

Horde Only Quests

Then for Horde, you can do the following quests:

Ashenvale Hunt

As a Horde, you should head to Thousand Needles and look for the messenger. You will obtain the Assasination Note that you also hand in in the very same zone. It seems like Horde players have way more quests that can prepare, at least higher level quests compared to the Alliance. An example could be in Ashenvale where you accept the Ashenvale Hunt and you complete this instantly.

This allows you to pick up 3 items that begin the quest - Ursangous's Paw, Shadumbra's Head, Sharptalon's Claw. One of these where you need to slay a bear. To make it even easier, then you could also add a mark to the target so you can see it even though it’s behind an object. Some of them can be a bit difficult to solo, so I would highly recommend you to form a party and look for other people who are also doing this quest. Mainly because the final target you will also have to slay is Level 31.These quests are so important to do also because all three you hand in at the exact same location. So you’re going to end up with a lot of additional experience.

Flayed Demon Skin

And then you could find more experience in dungeons or maybe even do yet another thing to get the Flayed Demon Skin. This is to head to Duskwood and kill higher-level creatures. They’re going to be above Level 30, so you should definitely form a party. It’s a low drop chance, but you can get this item that begins a quest, and it requires you to be Level 25.
