Surprisingly good XP farm if you wanna stay here and grind mobs for a bit. I was averaging 650-700k xp/hour in healer spec. I bet if you played Tank or DPS you could easily go up to 800-900k xp/hour with how quickly the mobs respawn (there was basically no downtime between spawns for me).
For reference, questing has typically been in the 200-270k xp/hour range for me as I've been going through the campaign. But I've also been reading the quests, so take that into account.

What to do
Description
The remaining Dark Horde forces are gathered here, {name}. Many of them look to be untrained and new to the cause. Drive away the forces gathered here, and perhaps we can hope to see some peace in this region--for the first time in decades.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Warriors Without a Warlord
Despite our work in the area, the Dark Horde continues to battle. Their leader is there, in Blackrock Stronghold, likely bolstering their spirits. Take them out. Once we do, I suspect this Dark Horde will come to nothing, with much less bloodshed.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Landmark Moment
With their leader defeated and that third relic fragment found, we should regroup with the others back at Lothar's Statue, <name>. I'll meet you there.

Regrets of the Past has 17 steps, from One Final Relic to The Journey Ends.
