World of Warcraft ForeverHorde Leveling Guide
PART III · ATTUNING AND GEARING

Onyxia. Earn your place at the gate.

The Horde route to the Drakefire Amulet, grouped by the trips its prerequisites actually require.

60THE NEXT CHAPTER
Optional · separate checks for each character

Begin in Kargath, Badlands.

Speak with Warlord Goretooth and complete his introduction to obtain Warlord’s Command #4903. If you already progressed during leveling, start at your first unfinished stage below.

Every raider needs their own Drakefire Amulet. A friend’s UBRS key opens a group door; it does not complete your personal Onyxia attunement.

The chain begins before the cap (level 55); this chapter is your level-60 completion route. Find a group for the dungeon and elite steps, and confirm personal item credit before anyone leaves.

Official Forever raid overview ↗ · Warlord's Command ↗

Follow the unlocks, one trip at a time.

01Lower Blackrock Spire → Kargath

Warlord's Command

Defeat Highlord Omokk, War Master Voone and Overlord Wyrmthalak; collect Important Blackrock Documents and return to Goretooth.

02Orgrimmar → Upper Blackrock Spire → Orgrimmar

Eitrigg, Thrall and Rend

Report in Orgrimmar, accept Thrall's mission, defeat Rend in UBRS and return his head.

03Orgrimmar → Desolace → Western Plaguelands

Find Rexxar; deliver his testament

Finish Thrall's conversation, find Rexxar on his Desolace patrol and take the testament to Myranda the Hag.

04Western Plaguelands → Upper Blackrock Spire → Western Plaguelands

Oculus Illusions

Collect 20 Black Dragonspawn Eyes in UBRS, then return to Myranda for the disguise.

05Dustwallow Marsh

Emberstrife

Use the Amulet of Draconic Subversion to speak with Emberstrife.

06Winterspring / Swamp of Sorrows / Tanaris → Dustwallow

The first three skulls

Accept all three before leaving. Defeat the three dragons, then bring their skulls to Emberstrife. Arrange the two Kalimdor kills as a circuit and the Eastern Kingdoms kill with transport availability.

07Wetlands → Dustwallow

The Test of Skulls, Axtroz

After the first three skulls, defeat Axtroz near Grim Batol and return to Emberstrife.

08Desolace → Upper Blackrock Spire → Desolace

Rexxar and the champion’s blood

Take the dull amulet to Rexxar. On his next mission, defeat General Drakkisath in UBRS, collect the blood and return to Rexxar for the Drakefire Amulet.

Put the finished Drakefire Amulet in your bags before raid night. It does not need to replace your equipped necklace.

Make each dungeon visit count.

  • LBRS: combine Warlord’s Command with your remaining dungeon rewards. If your group needs a keyholder, begin Vaelan’s Seal of Ascension work while killing the bosses.
  • UBRS: Rend, the eyes and Drakkisath’s blood unlock at different stages. Plan separate visits; you cannot collect every later requirement on the first run.
  • Skull hunts: accept Scryer, Somnus and Chronalis together. Bundle Kalimdor travel, then the Eastern Kingdoms crossing. Axtroz unlocks after the first three skulls are returned, so keep that trip later.
  • Return legs: consider a ready hearth whenever the return run exceeds eight minutes and the bind serves the next turn-in. Otherwise use a flight path learned by everyone traveling.

No invented trip duration is included here. These are dependency-safe travel groupings; the shortest route depends on your current location, learned flights and hearth cooldown.

Forever requirements use the official raid, dungeon and systems announcements. Quest records supply stage details. Routing and gearing priorities are planning advice. Unconfirmed entry rules and timing remain unestimated.

Oculus Illusions’ 20-eye count is cross-checked against Classic quest text ↗; the Forever Blackrock Spire listing marks the quest unchanged.
