Blasted lands is a nice grinding area. The quests from the two blood elves at the entrance to the zone give out nice buffs too.

The Tainted Scar should be avoided unless you are in a raid and looking for Lord Kazzak, this is where he is. Or if you are a warlock and are going to do your doomguard questline. The scar is scattered with level 61+ elite demons. Doomguards, Dreadlords, Felguards, and felhunters.

The Blasted Lands also used to be known as the Black Morass, a swamp land, and is where the Horde first came to Azeroth through the Dark Portal, which still stands today. The magical energies from the dark portal helped to twist the land and the wildlife there to what it is today.

If you're level 90+ and phased to the invaded Blasted Lands, but wish to see the old phase, speak to Zidormi (48.2, 7.2).

This lets you complete low level quests, and see any vendors and such.

This also shows the green version of the dark portal, which can be entered to access Hellfire Peninsula without the City portals. However, the reverse is not possible.

The term Horde never solely applies to orcs... the old "Horde" that existed until the end of the Second War comprised of orcs, forest trolls, ogres, goblins, and undead used as the killing machine of the Burning Legion. The "Horde" now are the races you see on your selection screen... and a few
