60 to 70 Leveling Grind Checklist

This checklist is based on the guide made by Myro, based on the BiosparksTV 2.0 leveling guide. The goal of this grind is to get to 70 + Karazhan attunement + 4/5 Heroic Dungeon keys unlocked.

Links to resource:

Note – You don’t need full group to do the Shattered Halls and Arcatraz key quest (long as one person does it he can let whole group through)

Level 60 to 61 – Blood Furnace

Note – you can technically do Ramparts instead of BF if your group isn’t handling the aoe/pulls in BF.

  • Enter Dark Portal, do the ‘Fly to Thrallmar/Honor Hold’ quest + set hearth to Thrallmar / Honor Hold (if alliance)
  • Dungeon grind to honored – Blood Furnace (750 rep/clear, 12x clears approximately)

Level 61 to 65 – The Slave Pens

Note: Can possibly leave Shattrath escort quest until later since it’s long and annoying
