It is possibly the most defining quest of lowbie Alliance questing and the first time we see ourselves really unraveling a serious mystery out in the world. No matter what race or class you rolled, everyone that has played an Alliance character past level 20 has done this quest. It's an absolute MUST to complete while leveling in Classic WoW and I look forward to doing it again (someday) on my Alliance alts. The Missing Diplomat is, quite frankly, the first quest where we as a player begin to feel less like a nameless adventurer and more like a genuine hero of the Alliance. Honestly, I don't remember every step of this chain - mostly because it's close to 20 quests in total - but when I hear the name of this chain mentioned in other videos, I always get a tingle of nostalgia. But eventually, we'd unravel the mystery as the quest givers sent us from zone to zone, speaking with all sorts of undercover individuals, scouring a marsh, and just generally being badass detectives.Įventually, we learn that the diplomat that went missing was the freaking KING OF STORMWIND! And that the Defias Brotherhood (you know.those guys we kicked out of Westfall back at level 20 or so) were behind his disappearance. As lowly level 28-30s, we had no idea what we were in for as we began this quest. One of the only quest chains in this list that actually kept the same name throughout its entire duration, The Missing Diplomat begins by tasking the player with speaking with a bishop in Stormwind to discuss a highly confidential issue of great importance to the Alliance. (Plus, did anyone actually read the quest text the first time around?) But for those of us with a soul, and the patience to actually read what we were doing instead of tabbing to Thottbot for every quest, the guilt felt at the end of the chain about what we'd unleashed upon our fellow leveling players in Duskwood was real. And though this quest chain is littered with red flags in the dialogue, we didn't care as long as we got ours. We are merely random dudes or dudettes looking for some loot, coin, and sweet exp from any quest giver we can find. The Embalmer questline (AKA Stitches) is an amazing story that really emphasizes the role we, the player, find ourselves in as we traverse the world of Azeroth. Soon after, a roar is heard in the woods: Stitches has been unleashed. Eventually, after many adventures throughout the Duskwood zone, you are tasked with delivering a letter to the town hall of Darkshire. As you follow his instructions, however, things begin taking a darker and darker turn.

You start out believing you're just performing some simple errands for a poor old man who has made himself a hermit out by the Raven Hill Cemetery. Well.literally everything he asks you to apparently.Īll kidding aside though, this quest chain is absolutely amazing. Next to him is a giant crate with chains holding it shut. Ok so, there's this creepy old dude hanging out in a shack by a graveyard. Thus I believe it is a solid quest chain to start off this list. Even though it's only one of MANY amazing quest chains in classic WoW, and may honestly be forgotten by many, it's got a special place in my heart. Honestly, I still get chills when I think of this quest.

What has happened to Swiftwing's heir? What has happened to Sharpbeak?Įventually, we found out that the gryphon was atop the massive troll stronghold of Jintha'Alor and our objective is clear: We fight our way through the droves of elite forest troll enemies, kill one of the leaders there, steal the key, and then find and free Sharpbeak. What follows is an adventure of epic proportions in which you travel the world - down to the Blasted Lands, across the ocean into Zul'Farrak, and eventually back to the Hinterlands - in search of the answer. As the standard adventurer, it was the player's job to run around the zone of the Hinterlands, searching for clues as to where Sharpbeak might have been taken. Of course, in the beginning we had no idea about any of that though. See, some evil troll dudes had apparently kidnapped Sharpbeak and were planning to sacrifice him or something like that. Or, rather, his search for the baby Gryphon. Actually probably one of the more surprising entries on this list - especially for people like me that entirely forgot that the Hinterlands existed for a while - Saving Sharpbeak tells the heartwarming story of a Dwarf and his Gryphon.
