Searing Gorge is a contested zone, meant for players level 40-60 and founded in Classic World of Warcraft. There aren’t a whole lot of quests in this zone, and I think I only leveled in it myself when I first started playing. It’s just…not that thrilling of a zone.

Everything you find below is up to date for patch 8.3.

Chests

Treasure Route in Searing Gorge

Below are the types of treasure chests that I’ve found in Searing Gorge. 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.

  • Dark Iron Treasure Chest
  • Solid Chest

Herb/Mining Combo

If you want either Firebloom or several types of ore within this zone, then you’ll need to check out my In-Depth Farming Guide.

As far as mining and herbalism alone, there is no good route, because using one profession to gather enough mats isn’t good in Searing Gorge. You can make a lap around and get a decent amount, but the nodes themselves won’t respawn for a while longer (at least, not for us druids). Which means you’d be flying a route without getting anything until the nodes respawned again.

Fishing

This zone has not yet been tested for fishing.

Skinning

This zone has not yet been tested for skinning locations.

Rares

Rare Route in Searing Gorge

Links regarding the types of beasts you can tame will take you to the Petopia page regarding their species. Petopia gives you a whole lot of information revolving around hunter pets, so if you’re a hunter, go check the site out.

  • Silk Cloth – 2
  • Elemental Fire – 4
  • Shadow Silk – 6
  • Core of Earth – 3

Vendors

No vendors were good enough to be mentioned in this section. There were only like five of them in all, and none sold any special items worth stocking into.
