Lordaeron

Lordaeron is aimed at players between levels 25 and 50 but, to be honest, my level 45 tri-class had no trouble with anything in this zone so I suspect you could clear this area with a group of experts if you were careful.

You can't get into the Orc or Goblin camps through either the Entrance to the Orc Camp (Eo) or the Entrance to the Goblin Camp (Eg). If you try to get in you'll be hurt (around 20-30 damage each time) and left in the same room. The only way in is to go through the tunnels you can find in the Crypt. There's a way down to the Crypt in the Temple (Te). You find yourself in the central Dark Crypt (Dc) room in the map of the crypt.

The only map oddity in this area is tha the north exit marked with a '*' in the Orc Camp takes you to the room OC, not north as you'd expect.

The mobs in this area range in toughness, the hardest being the cleric On The Altar (Oa), the two Wraiths in the Abandoned Crypts (Ac) and the Troll General in the General's Compound (Ge). There are a lot of 100K mobs wandering around. The troll and orcs will attack you on sight, even if you're invisible but the rest of the area is not aggressive.

If you'd like to make a quick run to this zone, we recommend the following directions, starting at The Common in Shadowdale: 4e6nwnw2nw2nenenw2nwnen.
