The Burning Crusade: what is still worth farming
Updated 2026-09-22 · checked against Midnight 12.1
The first expansion, January 2007: through the Dark Portal to Outland, a level cap of 70, and the first flying mounts. Blood elves and draenei joined, and Karazhan, Black Temple and Sunwell Plateau became the raids a generation of players measured themselves by.
Outland is still there, scaled to whoever walks in, and its raids are some of the easiest solo farms in the game.
Levelling through it
Levelling an alt here? Its Chromie Time campaign has its own page: how it starts, the zones in order, and what it unlocks.
What it still has to collect
Counting…
Counts are a floor, not a total. The expansion is not recorded for every collectible, and many source lines name a boss without a zone. "Missing" uses what you have ticked on the mounts, pets and toys pages, in this browser.
Farm it
Its raids run on legacy loot: a solo character gets the whole loot table, whatever its class. Loot is still locked per boss, per character, per week. Tick a raid when you have cleared it and the tick clears itself at the weekly reset: Tuesday 15:00 UTC in the US, Wednesday 04:00 UTC in Europe. Tick a collectible when you get it; it is the same tick as on the collection pages.
Loading…
Drops come from the encounter journal's loot tables where it lists them, and from each collectible's own source line where it does not. The raid ticks are for one character: lockouts in the game are per character.
