First you do Test of Valor and get a nice shield. You go to the cathedral in SW to get this quest at 20. You have to go to a cottage on a cliff overlooking the sea in the faaar southwest corner of westfall.

Three waves of lvl 17 to 18 defias attack and try to kill a lady there. This might be soloable at 20 if you have a couple of healing potions and a good weapon like Orc Crusher (from tharil'zun in redridge). Having the seal of command talent doesn't hurt, either. To be safe talk a couple of players into helping you. It's near the entrance to Deadmines - and you can eventually get a couple of people waiting to get a group there to help you (it takes five minutes tops).

Go back to stormwind cath and get the next quest - which is for the killer hammer Verigan's Fist. From cathedral go to IF (outside) and talk to Jordan. U need to get him 4 things. For two of these things u must talk to someone else - important middle steps - don't skip them.

Easiest to nail is the elite ogre item in Loch Modan. It's in the NE corner of the zone in the Mo Gosh stronghold - a box just sitting theren on the ground. At 20 w/ a good weapon like Orc Crusher you can solo these Elite Ogres - but there are almost always people hunting here. The box you need to loot is in the middle of this valley on the ground - not in a cave. BUT you must FIRST talk to a guy in Thelsemar to be able to loot htis box! He's in the building across from the INN w/ the tailor merchant out front.

Next is the Kor gem. Get to Auberdine and talk to the Elf in the Northmost building w/ a ! on his head. He'll give u the quest. Then get down to BFD (blackfathom depths) in next zone to the south (take the dotted-line path west off main road - hit M to get map and you will see what I mean - while in an area of the zone called maestra's outpost).

You might be able to solo this. The elite naga casters in the walkup to the instance drop this gem - first one did for me. There are stealthed rogue satyrs there - if you can get help it'll go easier - but there often isn't help here. If you can find a single spawn spot of a naga caster and just camp it til it drops - that might be a good solo option. They are lvl 19 at most as I recall.

Go back to Auberdine and the NE blesses the gem.

Now you don't have to talk to any more NPCs.

The Defias part (the white oak) is about halfway in the deadmines instance. You may want to save doing the VanCleef quest til now - get a normal deadmines group - and get the wood as you do this instance. Otherwise try to get some people to help you here. This would be very hard to solo in early 20s. You have to kill the ogre, and while he can be pulled solo he'd be very hard to solo - plus you have the patrol coming up behind you faster than you can kill the other rogues at the door - try to get help. The woodworking goblins a bit after the ogre drop this wood. Again you don't need to talk to another NPC to do this part.

Shadowfang. I went to menethil and swam north to southshore - and got a flight link. Took the road west to silverpine - followed road signs ... and found no one but horde at Shadowfang Keep. No guildees could help. Looked too hard to solo.

Hmm... there is always pvp at southshore, I thought. So I went back to hillsbrad zone and did "/1 could someone who knows shadowfang pls help me with the Verigan's quest part there? It should go really fast" - right away a lvl 31 druid said "I also play a pallie - sure I'll help."

I thought this would be so hard - but w/ him it was easy. He knew right where to go (took ten minutes). You enter, go right, fight your way to jail cells - and follow the guy you free to a door. He unlocks it. There go up the left wall to the stables (fighting were wolves and ghosts). The smithhing hammer is there on a box - u just right click and loot it.

Then hearthstone out, go back to IF, and watch Jordan make your Verigan's Fist!

Coupled w/ Seal of Command (talent) which you can also get at 20 - this is just killer. Beyond killer. It's amazaing and tons of fun!

I'm now doing the Holy talents for uninterruptable heals. When I get that (popping in concentra aura as needed), I expect to be unstoppable! Hehe. Well, not that good - but very, very strong! Hope this helps - GL all!

This basic level 20 paladin quest actually rewards you with a weapon fitting to a level 30 character.

I'm a 25 Ret Pally (I was a twink at 19 so not everything will be just as easy for you), and i'm flying to IF to turn the quest in as I write this.&nbsp This is how you get each piece:

The first section, where you have to defend Daphne Stilwell from the Defias is not too hard, and not too easy.&nbsp It's really yourself that you have to look out, since she has a very good amount of hp, and regains it after each 'wave'.

For the Whitestone Oak Lumber in Deadmines, I can solo until the ogre, but since you need ranged to pull him, I suggest a group.&nbsp You just have to get to the goblins, and they should drop it the very first kill.

For the Jordan's Refined Ore Shipment, you have to go to Loch Modan, in Thelsamar, into the house with the Tailoring Supplies guy on the porch.&nbsp Talk to Bailor Stonehand, and take his quest.&nbsp Then go Northeast across the lake until you start seeing the ogre encampment.&nbsp Go in, and keep going until you reach a tree with the item you need under it.&nbsp Grab it and finish the quest for the shipment.

For the Smithing Hammer, Get to Southshore (Run there if you do not have the flightpaths), and then run east along the road until you reach Silverpine Forest.&nbsp Follow the road up the hill and into SFK.&nbsp You may need a group for this, but since you're a pally, you might have Turn Undead.&nbsp
See if you can sneak upstairs and past as many pats and mobs as possible.&nbsp You will arrive into a courtyard.&nbsp Jump out and run to the stables to get the Hammer (On a log inside).

For the Kor Gem, you have to go to Auberdine, in Darkshore.&nbsp Take the boat in the Wetlands, and talk to Thundris Windweaver.&nbsp He'll give you a quest.&nbsp Run south until you reach Ashenvale, and then run west when you reach a path.&nbsp Keep running northwest from there until you reach the Instance, and swim under the little barrier.&nbsp Pop up in the otherside, and kill the Naga in there one by one until it drops.&nbsp Return to Thundris, and then Return to IF to complete the quest.
