Back when the game was first released, quests asked more from players and ultimately took longer to complete. Classic quests are often followed up with other quests in a chain, meaning players have to invest plenty of time into completing not just one quest, but several others shortly after.\u00a0 Part of the reason quests are so much more of a chore in Classic is because many of their objectives are spread across from each other, with quest lines sometimes sending players across the entirety of the map. Plus, since travel takes much longer and is a lot less convenient in Classic, especially for low-level players, completing certain quests efficiently is a tall order.\u00a0 Questing in Classic WoW is a far-from-streamlined experience. With that in mind, here are some of the hardest quests the game has to offer.\u00a0 Find OOX-17\/TN Across Azeroth, there are three quests that have you track down a distress signal sent off by a mechanical chicken, which you\u2019ll then have to escort to another location, usually entirely across the zone where the specific chicken is located. Whether it\u2019s in Tanaris, Feralas, or the Hinterlands, all three of these \u201cFind OOX\u201d quests are incredibly tedious since each of the chickens\u2019 escort routes are littered with enemies who could kill you if you\u2019re unprepared. While these three quests could be completed with the assistance of a group or strong gear, the enemies that ambush you along the escort routes are relatively difficult to solo. Be ready to die and have to restart these quests at least once before you get a feel for the mobs that may come your way.\u00a0\u00a0 Onyxia\u2019s Lair attunement chain Getting attuned to Onyxia\u2019s Lair is a relatively difficult process that requires the completion of quests in the open world, as well as WoW\u2019s dungeons and raids. The attunement chain will take you across Azeroth, with quests in the Burning Steppes, Desolace, Winterspring, and Blackrock Depths. Additionally, the Onyxia\u2019s Lair attunement chain is different depending on your faction, meaning you won\u2019t have a similar experience if you choose to complete it with both an Alliance character and Horde character. Onyxia\u2019s Lair is a one-boss raid, so you\u2019ll likely end up spending more time getting attuned to the raid via its lengthy attunement chain than you will actually defeating its lone boss. Mor\u2019ladim The culmination of Duskwood\u2019s questlines, Mor'ladim is the grand finale to one of the strongest narrative zones in WoW. While most zones in Classic WoW end with an elite quest or two, Mor\u2019ladim has perhaps the best story of any elite quest in the game. Mor\u2019ladim tells the story of a restless undead warrior who roams the Raven Hill Cemetery endlessly, and it\u2019s up to you to put the lost soldier to rest permanently. Mor\u2019ladim himself hits like a truck and takes a group of players to take down. Be prepared for a relatively tough battle that will surely test your group\u2019s health and mana bars.\u00a0 Gahz\u2019rilla The quest to kill Gahz\u2019rilla in Zul\u2019Farrak begins in Gadgetzan, but you\u2019ll have to go on a side adventure through the Hunterlands to acquire the sacred mallet that\u2019s needed to summon the great lizard. The quest for the Mallet of Zul\u2019Farrak takes you to the summit of Jintha\u2019Alor, an outdoor dungeon filled with elite trolls. After acquiring the mallet, you\u2019ll have to go back to Tanaris to complete the Zul\u2019Farrak dungeon, including the optional boss Gahz\u2019rilla, which could prove to be a challenge for some groups.\u00a0 Scarab Lord quest chain The Scarab Lord quest chain is often regarded as one of the longest, most labor-intensive grinds in WoW history, with quests across the entirety of Azeroth, including its open-world zones and instanced raids. Additionally, many of the quest chain\u2019s objectives require collaboration, meaning that guilds and groups will have to funnel resources into one player\u2014usually the one who has the best shot at earning the server\u2019s single Scarab Lord title. The Scarab Lord title is only available to the player who bangs the Scarab Gong of Ahn\u2019Qiraj first on each server, but players may earn the Black Qiraji Battle Tank mount for 10 hours after the gong is banged.\u00a0","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/663046"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1865"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=663046"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/663046\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":663079,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/663046\/revisions\/663079"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=663046"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=663046"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=663046"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=663046"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=663046"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=663046"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=663046"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
