Eastern Plaguelands – A Zone Overview in World of Warcraft

Eastern Plaguelands is a contested zone meant for players level 40-60, founded in Classic World of Warcraft. It’s a fairly devastated area with all of the undead and the effects of the Scourge. It also is home to some decent storylines.

Everything you find below is up to date for patch 8.2.

Reputations:

• Argent Crusade
• Cenarion Circle

Instance:

• Stratholme

[section label=”Chests”]Chests

Below are the types of treasure chests that I’ve found in Eastern Plaguelands. You won’t be able to find a chest in every single location they appear in, and they are on a timer if someone happens to take the specific chests in the zone before you.

• Sturdy Treasure Chest

This zone has not yet been tested for fishing.

[section label=”Mining”]Mining Route 1

[section label=”Mining”]Mining Route 2

I’m not a big fan of farming Mithril in this zone. Sometimes there’s a dry spell in the route and it makes me wonder if the respawn is a bit behind me, but then the nodes start appearing. So if you’re a druid, make sure you grab every mining node you see, even the couple that might be in a cave.

Mithril Ore – 197 Solid Stone – 292 Iron Ore – 29 Heavy Stone – 37 Gold Ore – 33 Truesilver Ore – 7

Black Vitriol – 2 Aquamarine – 2 Citrine – 6 Star Ruby – 1

This zone has not yet been tested for reagent routes.

[section label=”Vendors”]Vendors

Note:
These vendors sell special goods, meaning they’re limited supply. If someone buys one of these first, there’s a timer on when they’ll be back in stock. In no way does the list below show every vendor located in this zone.

No map is listed here due to it only having one notable vendor in the zone.

Jase Farlane Design: Ring of Bitter Shadows

[section label=”Goldmaking”]Goldmaking

In this Eastern Plaguelands goldmaking section, I’ll be listing items I acquired as I leveled throughout the zone. While I don’t focus on the special vendor items you could obtain within the zone, there is a chance for them to fall from open world mob drops.

More specifically, you’re able to buy healing potions and such from vendors, but they’re also mob drops, therefore they’ll be in the goldmaking listing below.
