Leveling Smart: Dodge the Rep Brick

Reaching level 68 demands a shift from blind dungeon spam. Dungeons like Shadow Labyrinth and Shattered Halls stack reputations for multiple Heroic keys while netting essential XP.

Dungeon	Level Range	Key Rep Gained	Key Name	Heroics Unlocked (Revered)
Old Hillsbrad Foothills	68+	Keepers of Time	Time-Lost Key	Old Hillsbrad HC, Black Morass HC
Black Morass	68+	Keepers of Time	Time-Lost Key	As above
Shadow Labyrinth	68-70	Lower City	Auchenai Key	Mana-Tombs HC, Auchenai Crypts HC, Sethekk Halls HC
Shattered Halls	68-70	Thrallmar/Honor Hold	Flamewrought Key	Hellfire Ramparts HC, Blood Furnace HC, Shattered Halls HC
Steamvault	68-70	Cenarion Expedition	Reservoir Key	Slave Pens HC, Underbog HC, Steamvault HC

A Shadow Labyrinth run at 68-70 yields Revered Lower City via repeatable quests, opening three heroics instantly. Daily instance locks cap resets at five; prioritize these multi-rep dungeons to avoid hitting the wall before cap.

Gold Crunch: Flying and BiS Gear

Outland demands flight for Mechanar, Botanica, and Karazhan attunement. Standard Artisan Riding training costs 5,000g, plus 100g for the mount.

Farm Method	Location	Est. GPH (Phase 1)	Notes
Quest Completion	Shadowmoon Valley	1,700g total	10-15g/quest + greens; Kara attune
Quest Completion	Netherstorm	1,600g total	Vendor rewards +20%; rep start
Primal Fire	Throne of Kil'jaeden	200-300g/hr	Fel Sparks fast respawn (/way 28 45)
Primal Mana	Kirin'Var Village	250g+/hr	AoE dense packs (/way 62 68)

Quest through Shadowmoon Valley first—it nets flight gold while progressing the Karazhan attunement chain (Cipher of Damnation). If you find yourself short on gold for your epic mount, MMOJUGG.com offers the fastest and most secure gold delivery to get you airborne immediately.

Tank Shortage Survival

With 90% of the population playing DPS, queues can stretch past 45 minutes. Shift to proactive networking:

Mercenary List: Whisper tanks post-run: "Add for future?" Offer them first dibs on mining nodes or primals.
Spell Cleave Groups: Mages, Warlocks, and Paladins can form Shadow Lab (68+) blasts for rapid XP/rep without a traditional tank in some cases.

Priority Checklist

Goal	Levelers (68-70)	Fresh 70s	All Players
Reps	Black Morass, Shadow Lab	Farm Shadow Lab resets	Buy keys at Revered
Attune	Start Kara (Deadwind)	Finish Arcatraz	Verify fragments
Gold	Save greens/ores	Shadowmoon quests	Primal farms

FAQs on TBC Anniversary Heroic Access and Endgame Prep

What reputations unlock heroic dungeons in TBC Classic Anniversary?

Revered with four core factions opens nine heroics via keys: Lower City (Auchenai Key); Cenarion Expedition (Reservoir Key); Thrallmar/Honor Hold (Flamewrought Key); Keepers of Time (Time-Phase Key). Mechanism: Keys purchased from quartermasters persist forever. Tip: Grind during leveling to skip post-70 farms—prioritize Shadow Labyrinth for fastest Lower City ramp.

How do I attune for Karazhan in TBC Anniversary?

Begin at level 68 with Archmage Alturus in Deadwind Pass. Chain leads to Shadow Labyrinth (key fragment), then Arcatraz finale. Full path: 5-7 hours solo/group. Practical: Slot during 68-70 dungeon reps—unlocks raid entry pre-Phase 1 end. Risk: Skipping fragments bricks the chain; verify quest log.

What is the cost of flying in Outland for TBC Classic?

Artisan Riding training: 5,000g (requires Expert Riding at 800g if untrained). Mount: 100-200g vendor. Total ~5,100g base. Anniversary AH BoEs may cut to 900-1,500g effective. Strategy: Quest cap Shadowmoon first—covers it fully while attuning.

Best gold farms for fresh 70s before raids?

Shadowmoon quests (1,700g), Netherstorm (1,600g), Throne of Kil'jaeden Fires (250g/hr), Kirin'Var Mana (250g+/hr). Mechanism: 70 scaling boosts rewards 2-3x. Optimize: AoE classes duo Kirin'Var—doubles yield, hedges price crash.

How to handle tank shortages for dungeon grinding?

Build tank friends list via whispers; join spell cleave (mages/locks/paladins). Avoid LFG spam. Pro path: Offer node shares—secures 5-10 reliable tanks weekly, enabling rep/gear floods.

When should I start rep grinds during leveling?

From 68: Swap to Shadow Lab, Shattered Halls, Steamvault over Mana-Tombs spam. Yields Revered across factions by 70. Community note: MMOJUGG players report 20% faster heroic entry this route.
