Western Plaguelands
Started at level 56
Finished at level 57
To get to Western Plaguelands, you simply have to run to the eastern end of Tirisfal Glades. You will see an encampment on the borders edge, and before you go starting any quests, be sure to see Argent Officer Garush. He will give you an Argent Dawn Commission which is a Trinket you will want to wear while fighting in either of the Plaguelands.
When you kill mobs wearing this trinket, they have a chance to drop scourgestones which you can hand in for Argent Dawn Faction. There are three types of scourgestones : Minion's Scourgestone's which drop off the lower level mobs (51-55 ish), Invader's Scourgestone's which drop off the mid level mobs (55-58 ish), and Corruptor's Scourgestone's which drop off level 59+ mobs.
Up until 'honored' you will gain Argent Dawn faction from simply killing the non elite mobs in the Plaguelands, Scholomance, and Stratholme, so a lot of people will advice to hold onto the scourgestones until honored before starting to hand them in. Thankfully they stack up to 100! (Elite mobs give you faction until you reach Revered status. Named Elite mobs always give you faction.)
Ok, so once you have your Argent Dawn Commission, throw it on and lets get to questing!
[53] Scarlet Diversions
Objectives : Destroy the command tent and place the Scourge banner at the Scarlet Crusade's base camp

Azshara and Burning Steppes
Started at level 55
Finished at level 56
Wanting to delay my travels in the Plaguelands, I decided to check out Azshara, and although I was probably a tad high for most mobs, it made for quick and easy killing. Before you head out there though, run and see Belgrom Rockmaul outside the Hall of the Brave in the Valley of Honor in Orgrimmar. He will give you a quest that sends you to Azshara, as will Chemist Cruely in The Apothecarium in The Undercity.
If this is your first trip to Azshara, take a flight from Orgrimmar to Splintertree Post in Ashenvale. From there you will run east where you will eventually cross a small bridge and end up in Azshara. Just in on the right you should see a small camp of sorts, this is the Alliance Flight Path / Outpost, but there is a Tauren named Loh'atu there that will give you two quests.
[47] A Land Filled with Hatred
Objectives : Kill 6 Haldarr Satyr, 2 Tricksters, and 2 Felsworn
Rewards : XP!
[47] Spiritual Unrest
Objectives : Kill 6 Highborne Apparitions and 6 Highborne Lichlings
Rewards : XP!
Just across the path from Talrendis Point, the Alliance outpost, you will find Shadowsong Shrine and the Highborne you need to kill. They are scattered all over the area from basically the river across to Haldarr Encampment, which is the camp you need for the Satyr's. Both quests are quick and easy, and although slightly lower level, still net you some ok XP.
After you have done those two, time to move onto the Horde Outpost to pick up another quest and our flight path. I have marked it out on the map, and basically any route in land will take you to it. You will have to run past mobs however.
[52] Stealing Knowledge
Objectives : Find the Tablets of Beth'Amara, Jin'yael, Markri, and Sael'hai
Rewards : XP!

Un'Goro and Felwood
Started at level 53
Finished at level 55
Now that I was back in Un'Goro from the Linkin's Sword quest line, I decided to complete some other quests. In your running around, if you happened to pass The Undercity, head down to where they do all the testing in The Apothecarium and see Chemist Fruely.
[56] ...and a Batch of Ooze
Objectives : Collect 5 of the Pure Un'Goro Samples
Rewards : XP!
As the quest says, any ooze in Un'Goro will work for this. All of them will drop an Un'Goro Slime Sample, the tricky part is you won't know how many will net you the Pure kind until you get back to The Undercity. To be safe, collect as many as you can before heading back, I got between 10 and 15 and it worked ok.
When you get back to the Undercity, there is a small bowl with green goo in it on the table beside Fruely. Right click it to get the tested sample, and then right click the sample to see if you got a pure one. Once you have your 5 hand in, then sell the rest of the junk you get.
[52] Alien Ecology
Objectives : Use the Scraping Vial to collect a Hive Wall Sample
Rewards : XP!
To start with, I ran to the very south end of the zone. You can head straight down if you wish, but I took a little detour around the east side in a large arc for safety... and less mobs to knock me off my mount.
If you fight down the East side, you will kill through some Raptors before starting to see big green bugs and eventually enter The Slithering Scar. You are looking for the hive there and you need to kill your way just inside the entrance. As you enter the hive you will see you can go left or right, you want left, down the short tunnel into a small round room. If you clear that room and stand in the very center, you will be able to take your Hive Wall Sample.

Un'Goro, Felwood and Linkin's Sword Quest
Started at level 51
Finished at level 53
If you have never been to Un'Goro before, getting there is easy. From the Gadgetzan in Tanaris, you want to head South-West as if you were heading to Thistleshrub Valley. Just near there you will see two large blue / black pylons on either side of a gulley, that gulley will lead you straight to Un'Goro!
While running around in the zone, keep your eye out to pick up:
- - Blood Petal Sprouts : Although the hand in will not give you XP, turning 15 of these into the Kodo at Marshal's Refuge will yield a goodies box.
- Blue, Red, Yellow and Green Power Crystals : You need 7 of each to hand in for a quest, and then varying amounts after to receive buffs if you so choose.
- Un'Goro Dirt Pile : You need to collect 20 Un'Goro soil for Ghede in Thunder Bluff
When you get to the base of the path leading down, look to your left for a Tauren that goes by the name of Torwa Pathfinder. He will give you quests, a couple of which you can do while you are close before you move on;
[53] The Fare of Lar'Korwi
Objectives : Find the carcass of Lar'korwi's freshest kill
Rewards : XP!
For this you need to find a carcass, and it's actually quite close, but you do need to head into raptor territory so be alert. By level 50 you should have no problems taking these mobs solo as they are between level's 47 - 52, just watch you don't get too many of them. I have marked out on the map where you will find the carcass as it's rather hard to explain, just kill your way inland mostly. Once you find the carcass, right click to loot and head back to Torwa.
