Mid-level players in their late-20s and early-30s will flock to Southshore with the intention of gaining some quick experience, in addition to getting away from the hustle and bustle of other questing zones like Stranglethorn Vale, for example.\u00a0 Southshore, however, is an Alliance-only town, meaning only about half of the WoW player base has access to it. Plus, it\u2019s located in the Hillsbrad Foothills, which is way easier to access if you\u2019re a Horde player. While Southshore is definitely worth visiting, it\u2019s going to be a bit tough to get to if you represent the blue and gold.\u00a0 Here\u2019s how to get your Alliance character to Southshore in WoW Classic.\u00a0 How to arrive in Southshore as an Alliance player in WoW The Hillsbrad Foothills are easily accessible for Horde players, whose friendly starting zone of Tirisfal Glades is right next door. But for Alliance players, getting to the zone can be a little bit more of a challenge. Since there are no nearby flight paths for Alliance players, you\u2019ll have to do most of your traveling to Southshore on foot. And you\u2019re probably going to be heading to Southshore before you have access to a mount, meaning the journey will take even longer.\u00a0 Related: How to complete the Perenolde Tiara quest in WoW Classic The first way to get to Southshore is by crossing over the north side of the Wetlands\u2019 border into the Arathi Highlands. Once you\u2019re in Arathi, travel west until you reach Thoradin\u2019s Wall, then cross through the massive wall, which divides the Arathi Highlands and the Hillsbrad Foothills. Continue traveling on the road westward until you reach the fork in the road. Do not go north toward Tarren Mill\u2014that\u2019s how you meet a swift execution by some patrolling Horde guards. Instead, move south toward the sea, and eventually, you\u2019ll reach Southshore.\u00a0 Alternatively, you could swim to Southshore by flying to Menethil Harbor in the Wetlands and swimming up the coast of the Eastern Kingdoms until eventually reaching the town. This method is definitely a bit more tedious but does give you a bit more control over your route as you can avoid hostile enemies by swimming out of their range of view.\u00a0 Ultimately, we recommend taking the roads, especially if you\u2019re a Hardcore Classic WoW player looking to get there in the safest and most straightforward way possible.\u00a0","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/WoW-Southshore.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/937405"}],"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=937405"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/937405\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":937442,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/937405\/revisions\/937442"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/937412"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=937405"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=937405"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=937405"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=937405"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=937405"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=937405"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=937405"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
