How reliable is the Ashenvale (Horde) route?

All 31 quests on this page come from the Classic quest database (cMaNGOS classic-db), not from WoW Forever: Blizzard changed the starting zones, moved some quests and added new ones that are not here yet, so check a quest giver before a long run. Places come from Classic; the maps come from game build 1.60.1.70532.

Still missing

Classic base (cMaNGOS classic-db), to be confirmed in game: 31 quests. Missing: Forever's new or changed quests (the beta's game files hold no quest titles or objectives), French quest and creature names, Forever's own XP values; places are spawn points of Classic.
