Ruins of Lordaeron Quests FAQ

Do all quests start at level 15?

Yes, since Blizzard's November 2 notes. Older guides still print level 16 for several quests.

Why can't I see The Wrath of Rath'mael?

You probably have not finished both Rear Guard Patrol steps in Tirisfal Glades. Zockify lists them as required.

Are any quests shareable?

Zockify marks five as shareable and the rest not: Unending Torment, Bloodied Insignia, both Crests and Remember That I Love You are personal.
