Azshara |
Azshara has been transformed into a Horde-only zone, one that has a lot of fun with the commercial goblins and Azuregoes. |

Darkshore |
Darkshore underwent many changes after the Shattering--and completing the first half of quests in this zone is heartbreaking, from rescuing survivors to seeing familiar faces pass away. |

| En mission pour Benêt |
Searing Gorge |
Lunk, a peaceful ogre, hates combat. In this series of quests, you learn to defeat enemies in creative ways. |
| Le jour où vint Aile de mort |
Badlands |
Survivors of the Sundering spin tall tales about how they defeated Deathwing--it's both funny and touching at once. |
| Docteur Theolen Krastinov, le Boucher |
Scholomance |
Bring justice to Eva and Lucien Sarkhoff--devoted servants of Scholomance trapped and tortured in a past life. |
| La bataille de Comté-de-Darrow |

| La Main de Gul’dan |
Shadowmoon Valley |
The Cipher of Damnation is an epic questline that used to be a prerequisite for entering Tempest Keep. This comment outlines all the various quests in the chain. You are tasked with rebuilding the spell uttered by Gul'dan which shattered Outland. Oronok, a former lieutenant of Gul'dan, is constantly reminded of his treacherous involvement--and sent his three sons out into Shadowmoon Valley to find traces of the cipher when he received word that Illidan was using the cipher for his own purposes. |
| Un moment décisif/Un coup fatal à la Légion |
Netherstorm |
These quest series give major amounts of reputation for L'Aldor or Clairvoyants. They mostly follow the same trajectory in Netherstorm--shutting down the various Manaforges. However, the climatic battle against Socrethar differs for factions. The Aldor questline is a bit more interesting as a traitorous Draenei realizes his wrongdoings and then sacrifices himself. |
| Une visite à la grande-mère |
Nagrand |
This quest chain provides backstory on Thrall, his surviving relatives, and Garrosh. It can only be started after completing numerous quests in Nagrand. |
| Le journal d'Arelion |
Hellfire Peninsula |
Studious journal notes turn out to be a steamy journal, but the amusing part is finding Bougie parfumée abîmée and Boîte de bonbons rancis in the quest satchel as well. |
| Expiation |
Hellfire Peninsula |
The questline demonstrates how revenge is not always the most effective strategy. After a peace-loving Draenei is murdered, you are asked to go on a rampage on his behalf--learning afterwards that it was the wrong choice. |
| La bataille du Guet cramoisi |
Shadowmoon Valley |
Starting with Le journal de Val'zareq : Des présages de guerre, you learn that a general of the Sha'tar is captured by agents of Illidan. After disrupting their ritual, you are rewarded with either Tabard trophée des Illidari vert or Tabard trophée des Illidari violet. |
| La nouvelle directive |
N/A |
To enter Karazhan in the past, one needed to complete an elaborate questline to receive a key. Attunement has been removed, but the questline is interesting as it introduces players to the Kirin Tor, Khadgar, Burning Crusade heroics, and the general lore of Deadwind Pass. This comment explains all the steps in teh keying procedure. |
| Champion des Naaru |
N/A |
This used to be a title for completing L'épreuve des naaru : Magtheridon, but it's still a fun questchain to complete anyway. You'll have to complete the Cipher of Damnation chain described above, and then L'épreuve des naaru : Miséricorde, L'épreuve des naaru : Force, L'épreuve des naaru : Ténacité, and L'épreuve des naaru : Magtheridon. |
| Les fioles d'éternité |
N/A |
This quest series requires you to kill the end bosses in Caverne du sanctuaire du Serpent and Donjon de la Tempête. You are tasked with retrieving a vial that was drawn from the Well of Eternity--Illidan poured three into the lake on top of Mount Hyjal to form the second Well of Eternity, and the rest were presumed lost until now. This quest also opens up access to Balance des sables reputation rings. Completing it before nerfs in Burning Crusade rewarded Main d'A'dal. |
| Un secret compromis |
N/A |
This quest series granted attunement to The Black Temple, involving the Ashtongue Deathsworn, redeeming Akama, slaying A'lar while disguised as a Broken in Tempest Keep, and eventually killing Illidan Stormrage for Médaillon béni de Karabor. It didn't just stop after attunement, but continued to trace the development of major lore characters. This comment documents the full process. |

| L’appel du chaman universel/L’appel du chaman universel |
N/A |
Added in 4.2, many players did this questline without thinking simply because epic capes were the final reward. But if you take the time to listen to all the dialogue, it's an interesting character sketch of Thrall--both his strengths and weaknesses. |
| Ma sœur, Fanny |
Twilight Highlands |
You're tasked with bringing about a political marriage between subsets of the Wildhammer clans, but quickly learn that Fanny Tonnemar has a mind of her own and awesome personality. From turning down your escort aid to enthusiastically talking about the physical attributes of her groom, Fanny has a lot of sass and makes the traditional 'wedding planning' quests fun. The final quest has a surprise twist, but Paroles et musique de…, in which you get to write your own wedding song, is a fun highlight too! |
| Visions du passé de Vashj'ir |
Vash'jir |
Learn about some of the Highborne's past, under Queen Azshara's rule--each vision will turn you into a Naga with special abilities! To learn how to get to this quest point, check out this comment. |
| Dans un millier d'années, vous aussi peut-être vous vaudrez quelque chose |
Uldum |
Harrison Jones is back, and you need to assist him on his fabulous adventures in Uldum--culminating in Brann Bronzebeard's reappearance. It's a very long quest chain and this comment goes over every quest in the series. |
| Cauchemars éveillés |
Twilight Highlands |
This unsettling achievement takes you into the world of Thrall's nightmares, after dying. |
| Trouvez Jacasse |
Twilight Highlands |
Beak, Donnelly's pet gryphon, is assumed dead--until your help, which brings about a touching reunion. |

Reach into the hat for a drink. (1 Hour Cooldown). Alliance-only, but remains in inventory if going Horde. |

One stylish and laid-back hat. Sporeggar would approve. |
| Garde-épaules de Gahrron |
Les vestiges d’un passé oublié |
This quest reward, as well as several others in the level 30-40 range only cover one-shoulder. It's pretty distinctive. |

Les calices ténébreux/Les calices ténébreux |

This breastplate, and a few others from Hellfire Peninsula, look quite similar to Paladin Tier 4: Corselet de justicier. |

Je travaille… Pour la Horde !/Faut pas gâcher |
And here's the matching legs that are a Paladin TIer 4 lookalike. |
| Magelame plaie-des-Illidari |
Tremper la lame |
This quest rewards, increasing stats against Demons, were popular when fighting Leotheras l'Aveugle. The quest series is pretty interesting too, if obscure. |

Nouvelle neuve : le feu ça brûle ! |
"Guaranteed to extinguish the fire, and everything else." |
| Poing de subtilité |
Infiltrer Voltarus |
"Not at all" |

Reference to the Grateful Dead song "Scarlet Begonias." |

Le terminal des titans |
In other words, a frying pan. |
| Black Ice |
Une récompense sonnante et trébuchante |
This is only one of two rings that has a visible effect in the game. Unfortunately, it is BoP so it cannot be mailed to bank alts. |

Retrieve balloons for cute children and get your very own faction balloon! |
| Mini jouteur bleu/Mini jouteur doré |
Qui vole sur un œuf… |
Completing this quest series in Hyjal, a tribute to arcade game Joust, will reward you with one of these pets. Completing Ptérodactyle « imbattable ? » : BATTU will grant you the other. |
| Graines de tournesol de Brazie |
Gazon maudit |
A clear tribute to Plants vs Zombies. |
| Jeune flagellant |
Un vieil ami |
This pet used to be farmable in the old Zul'Gurub until it was removed. This comment explains how to currently obtain the pet for both Horde and Alliance, involving low-level questing in Northern Stranglethorn. Bonus: the pet is tagged as <'aka>, instead of <'s Pet>. |
| Poulet mécanique |
Un OOX rien que pour vous |
This pet requires you to complete three escort quests--Trouvez OOX-09/HL ! in Hinterlands, Trouvez OOX-17/TN ! in Tanaris, and Trouvez OOX-22/FE ! in Feralas. These quests are started by looting random zone-wide drops and can be tricky at-level, not to mention the beacon drop rate is very low. However, it is BoE--so you might see it on the AH. |
| Pititaile |
Aile-du-ciel |
The escort quest for this pet is fairly easy at level, especially if you clear the area beforehand and know the path. Completing this escort quest also rewards you with the Halloween hat, Chapeau de sorcière du ciel. |
| Bébé panthère |
Faire le bien/Faire le bien |
This adorable pet can easily be gotten by level 85s partially through completing the 4.1 quest series related to Zul'Gurub. |
| Gravillon |
Pour l'amour d'une pierre |
Complete Perdu dans les profondeurs 10 times to get this pet. You will need to have unlocked Therazane dailies in Deepholm and get lucky with the daily quest selection--as this quest is not a guarantee. |
| Petite flamouche |
SEPT ÇA SUFFIT !/Pas des lucioles, des flamouches ! |
This pet looks quite similar to Luciole capturée, a rare drop in Zangarmarsh. For the complete Horde chain, read this, and for the complete Alliance chain, read this. |
| Ratatin |
Souvenirs d'Auberdine |
For Alliance, this is a reward from the culmination of rebuilding Darkshore/mourning Auberdine. Read this comment for the full quest series. For Horde, they can simply buy this from Apothicaire Furrows. |
| Hippocampe de Vashj'ir |
La chevauchée abyssale |
Obtained fairly early on in Vash'jir questing, this mount is essential for underwater questing enjoyment. |
| Bateau fluvial |
Le cercle des chaloupes disparues/Le cercle des chaloupes disparues |
While not an official mount, driving around on a flashy barge in Thousand Needles is pretty awesome. |
| Rênes de sabre-de-givre de Berceau-de-l'Hiver/Sifflet du ravasaure peau-de-venin |
Ils grandissent si vite/Ils grandissent tellement vite |
These mounts are rewards for taking care of 'baby' cubs/ravasaurs for approximately a month, feeding and playing with them. The process of getting a Frostsaber used to be quite complex, but it's since been simplified into a daily-style rep grind. |
