Daily Quest Guide (Shattered Sun Offensive)

Daily Quests were introduced in patch 2.1 and have since become an important aspect of World of Warcraft as a consistent source of gold, faction reputation and honor. If you can, you should consider adopting an efficient routine of quests to do every day. Not only will you gain a lot of reputation but you'll make a ton of gold in a short amount of time. This is among one of the best ways to make gold in the game, this gold guide explains dozens of even better ways to make gold.

There are almost two-dozen Shattered Sun Offensive quests on the Isle of Quel'Danas, each quest gives about 250 reputation and 10g. There are a handful of quests in the Outlands worth doing, and about a dozen on the Isle itself. Here is a helpful summary of each quest and how to do them along with some maps and routes you can use to do the effectively.

I do these quests almost every morning in the following order with most of my 70s.

Outlands

#1 Start in Shattrath City and pickup these 3 quests: [Gaining The Advantage], [The Multiphase Survey] and [Sunfury Attack Plans]. I hold on to [Gaining The Advantage] and do it over a few day time period.

#2 (Optional) Fly to Nagrand and complete [The Multiphase Survey]. This quest is not shared among party members so you have to click 6 red clouds for each character you are playing.

#3 Fly to Honor Hold or Thrallmar.

#4 Fly north to the Throne of Kil'jaeden, accept, complete and turn in [Blood for Blood] and [Blast the Gateway]. I often leave my level 70s here since these 2 quests are the easiest to do while running several characters at once.

#5 Fly north to Netherstorm, to Manaforge Coruu and start slaying Sunfury Blood Elfs until [Bloodfury Attack Plans] drop. Loot this with all characters and hearth to Shattrath to turn in the 2 quests you completed above.
