Here is my Quicklist Guide to the second tier of Pet Trainer Quests. This is a quick reference to see what type of pets you will need to defeat the trainers easily. On Trainers who have the same type of pet for all 3 pets in their party, I would recommend you bring at least two pets that are the opposite type (i.e. bring three appropriate leveled Mechanical types to fight three trainer Beasts). Don't rely on fighting all three of their pets with just one of yours, despite the fact that they will have stronger attacks and defeat them quicker.

Battle Pet Tamers: Eastern Kingdoms

To defeat these trainers with maximum efficiency, you will need pets of the following type:
Beast, Mechanical, Dragonkin, Critter, Humanoid, Flying, Magic, Aquatic

Description

Now that you've had a real chance to hone your skills, you're ready to venture out into the world of pet battles in full. There are five tamers throughout the Eastern Kingdoms that I'd like you to defeat: David Kosse in The Hinterlands, Deiza Plaguehorn in Eastern Plaguelands, Kortas Darkhammer in Searing Gorge, Everessa in Swamp of Sorrows, and Kortas' brother, Durin Darkhammer, in Burning Steppes. If you are able to best them, you will be ready to venture further.

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.
