It\u2019s there that mobs are densely packed and experience is easy to come by, although you\u2019re likely to take your life into your own hands whenever you travel there.\u00a0 Just up the road, the questgivers at the Rebel Camp repeatedly task you with taking out the forces of Colonel Kurzen, a rebel who went rogue in the jungle and gathered a pack of dangerous forces deeper in the Vale.\u00a0 Don\u2019t worry, though, just because the Colonel Kurzen questline is a one-to-one reference to Apocalypse Now, you won\u2019t have to embark on a journey down any rivers. In fact, finding the elusive NPC is relatively simple. Here\u2019s where to find Colonel Kurzen in WoW Classic, should you choose to take on the challenge of seeking him out.\u00a0 Where is Colonel Kurzen in Stranglethorn Vale?\u00a0 Kurzen\u2019s Compound is a location in northern Stranglethorn Vale that you\u2019ll likely be popping in and out of during your leveling experience. The first quest that sends you into the camp\u2014Bad Medicine\u2014is unlocked at level 30, and the final quest that takes place there should be completed around level 40.\u00a0 Each of the Kurzen quests here require you to kill a ton of mobs (many of which you\u2019ll be competing with other players for), and at the very end of the chain, you\u2019ll be tasked with taking down the Colonel himself. Unfortunately, he\u2019s a bit of a pain to track down, and navigating the cave where he makes his home can be a challenge.\u00a0 Related: WoW Classic Hardcore full content release schedule Colonel Kurzen can be found at the very end of the cave on the northern side of his compound. The fighters in the compound refer to this cave as \u201cthe Stockpile,\u201d and its mouth can be found at coordinates [45, 8]. After entering, follow the main path inside the cave\u2014Kurzen is found at coordinates [49, 4].\u00a0Do not go down the side path of the cave and be sure to follow its uppermost \"road\" until you reach its end. Related: The top 10 quests every WoW Classic Hardcore player should avoid at all costs If you\u2019re a Hardcore WoW Classic player, we recommend skipping the final quest in the Colonel Kurzen chain completely. Tracking down this boss all the way to back of his cave in Stranglethorn is dangerous, and making your way out of the cave without a Hearthstone could spell your death. The risk that this quest poses far outweighs its reward, especially if you\u2019re a class that can\u2019t use the Shrapnel Blaster that it gives you upon completion as an upgrade.\u00a0 But if you have a good group of players by your side and are eager to get a decent weapon plus some experience as a reward, the trek into Kurzen's cave could be worth your time.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Screenshot-2023-08-25-151313.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/944047"}],"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=944047"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/944047\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":944128,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/944047\/revisions\/944128"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/944112"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=944047"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=944047"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=944047"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=944047"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=944047"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=944047"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=944047"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}

Here\u2019s where to find Colonel Kurzen in WoW Classic, should you choose to take on the challenge of seeking him out.\u00a0 Where is Colonel Kurzen in Stranglethorn Vale?\u00a0 Kurzen\u2019s Compound is a location in northern Stranglethorn Vale that you\u2019ll likely be popping in and out of during your leveling experience. The first quest that sends you into the camp\u2014Bad Medicine\u2014is unlocked at level 30, and the final quest that takes place there should be completed around level 40.\u00a0 Each of the Kurzen quests here require you to kill a ton of mobs (many of which you\u2019ll be competing with other players for), and at the very end of the chain, you\u2019ll be tasked with taking down the Colonel himself. Unfortunately, he\u2019s a bit of a pain to track down, and navigating the cave where he makes his home can be a challenge.\u00a0 Related: WoW Classic Hardcore full content release schedule Colonel Kurzen can be found at the very end of the cave on the northern side of his compound. The fighters in the compound refer to this cave as \u201cthe Stockpile,\u201d and its mouth can be found at coordinates [45, 8]. After entering, follow the main path inside the cave\u2014Kurzen is found at coordinates [49, 4].\u00a0Do not go down the side path of the cave and be sure to follow its uppermost \"road\" until you reach its end. Related: The top 10 quests every WoW Classic Hardcore player should avoid at all costs If you\u2019re a Hardcore WoW Classic player, we recommend skipping the final quest in the Colonel Kurzen chain completely. Tracking down this boss all the way to back of his cave in Stranglethorn is dangerous, and making your way out of the cave without a Hearthstone could spell your death. The risk that this quest poses far outweighs its reward, especially if you\u2019re a class that can\u2019t use the Shrapnel Blaster that it gives you upon completion as an upgrade.\u00a0 But if you have a good group of players by your side and are eager to get a decent weapon plus some experience as a reward, the trek into Kurzen's cave could be worth your time.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Screenshot-2023-08-25-151313.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/944047"}],"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=944047"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/944047\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":944128,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/944047\/revisions\/944128"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/944112"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=944047"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=944047"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=944047"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=944047"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=944047"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=944047"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=944047"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
