After completing your Wrath of the Lich King Classic adventures in Borean Tundra and Howling Fjord, you’ll be guided into the chilly zones of Dragonblight and Grizzly Hills on your continuing journey to face the Lich King.
Nestled between Zul’Drak and Howling Fjord, Grizzly Hills is an untamed forest filled with threats from all sides.
At the heart of this massive forest sits Grizzlemaw, home to this region’s furbolg tribes that have taken over the fallen World Tree, Vordrassil, and made it their own.
This is the primary Alliance outpost in Grizzly Hills and was once a refuge for the region’s hunters, trappers, and woodsmen. It has since been commandeered by the Alliance Vanguard for military use.
The central Horde hub in the Grizzly Hills is currently under the volatile control of the overtly aggressive Conqueror Krenna, who seeks to secure the region’s natural resources for the Horde.
Furbolg, iron dwarves, ice trolls, worgen, and the Venture Company are some of the denizens you’ll meet in this zone. And you’ll also want to keep an eye out for aggressive wildlife.
Most of what you’ll need to survive can be procured without the continual need to travel back and forth between the main capital cities. Just be sure to grab the nearest flightpath and speak to the Innkeeper to set your Hearthstone before you set off to save Azeroth from the Lich King’s deadly intentions.
If you need to get to the Auction House or Bank, hop on a boat or zeppelin for a quick trip back to your capital city. Don’t forget to speak to an Innkeeper and set your Hearthstone before you go.
