Ethan Centaurai will be releasing this in-game guide to help you find the bonfires quickly.

Comment by 303819

I am looking forward to trying this one. This one seams to be the only one that have any kind of challenge to it, not much but if you head there when there are horde players there you will probably be camped. Just have to pick the right time to go, and I would think druids and rogues would have the easiest time doing this one, as they can scout out the place first with out making their presence known.

Edit: turned out this was not hard at all. Only two times did the horde players decide they wanted the HK, being that I am on a PvE server I just took it as a chance to take a 5 minute AFK, it does not flag you till after you complete the quest. So all I did those 2 times was just let the horde paladins (yes pallies both times) kill me as I walked away from the computer, so not very hard. Had my title in 4 hours, no challenge to this one, just traveling all around the place.

Alliance Kalimdor Fires Walkthrough

This is a rewrite of the path I posted the other day... this is a far better path
and it includes everything including the Zoram Strand Quest
if you've picked that up. That quest is also sharable so if you dont have it you
can harass your friends or just go grab it and hearth since your hearth
stone will reset long before you need it again, that is assuming your
hearth is in Dalaran.

This time we're starting in Tanaris coming from the Caverns of Time...
for those of you without access to Dalaran the reason why we start here
is because we can portal into the ass end of Kalimdor from Dalaran
which will clean up the order problems that are caused by starting in the
north and gives us an end point where we can turn in quests.

Mount up and head to Gadgetzan... (aim for the south east corner)
A..... Tanaris Gadgetzan
Fly To Silithus (dont do the horde fire we have to come back)
A..... Silithus Cenarion Hold
H..... Silithus Cenarion Hold

Fly back to Gadgetzan
H..... Tanaris Gadgetzan

Head North to The Shimmering Flats
H..... Thousand Needles Freewind Post
I suggest keeping to the Southern

Keep Heading West to Feralas
H..... Feralas Camp Mojache

I suggest Water Walking here as the fp will not be used with the path
I'm using into Desolace, one should do yah as long as you dont take damage.

A..... Feralas Feathermoon Stronghold

(If you're using Water Walking just head due
North from the Stronghold across the Ocean)

Head North into Desolace
H..... Desolace Shadowprey Village
A..... Desolace Nijel's Point

Either Fly to Stonetalon Peak or hoof it through the Charred Vale
should take about the same time (if you go through the vale look
for the short cut near 37,52)
H..... Stonetalon Mountains Sun Rock Retreat

Mount Up and Head East out of Stonetalonw
H..... Barrens, The Crossroads

Head South South West to Mulgore!
Steal Flame..... Thunder Bluff Spirit Rise
H..... Mulgore Bloodhoof Village

Head South to Dustwallow Marsh
H..... Dustwallow Marsh Brackenwall Village
A..... Dustwallow Marsh Theramore Isle

Fly to Ratchet

Okay what you're going to do is follow the river north towards Durotar...
if you need the flame I suggesting heading straight to Orgrimmar... the
reason being most of us will die. Twice even. If you plan accordingly you
should be able to keep it down to twice once going in and once coming out.
Once you have the flame its my suggestion you accept the rez sickness and
then do Razor Hill. If you are not stealing the flame are or certain you
can go in and out without dieing then do Razor Hill first. I suggest
doing everything in your power to die near the flame when you rez there
is a tent next to the flame rez on top of it and you'll have your best
chance to grab the flame without getting any automatic guard aggro after
that do your best to escape. Don't stress about dieing though you will
not lose the flame once you have it.

Steal Flame..... Orgrimmar Valley of Wisdom
H..... Durotar Razor Hill

Head North West into the Barrens and follow the road north into Ashenvale
H..... Ashenvale Splintertree Post

Get to Astranaar either hoof it or goto Forest Song and fly, I hoofed it
cause I'm also gathering low level herbs for an Inscriptionist I'm leveling.
A..... Ashenvale Astranaar

========
OPTIONAL
========
If you have the quest head to the Zoram Strand.
Kill one of the Twighlight guys near 15,19. Get the letter drop the totem
and get the next quest . Put on the costume and goto
9,12 you can mount up and get closer if you like or have fun as a crab. Walk
away and then use the Totem again. Next you get which you
can turn in when we're done with the fires.

Get to a Flight Master... either run North from where you are or head back
to Astranaar. I'm running north using some water walking! I'll skip the
fire cause we gotta fly to Winterspring and back anyways.

Fly to Winterspring
A..... Winterspring Everlook
H..... Winterspring Everlook

Fly to Auberdine
A..... Darkshomre Auberdine

We're going to Azuremyst first and not Darn because you dont need to enter
the Exodar you do however one way or another have to pass through Darnassus
so it makes sense to not make the Exodar your end point.

Take the Boat to Azuremyst Isle

Fly to Bloodmyst and Head South
A..... Bloodmyst Isle Blood Watch

Ride South to Azure Watch
A..... Azuremyst Isle Azure Watch

HORDE ONLY
A..... Exodar, The The Crystal Hall

Get to Darnassus (if you have the Kirin Tor Ring burn a hearth otherwise boat
back to Auberdine and then boat or fly to Rat'theran Village, if you're
boating/flying turn in quests as you pass through the village, then continue
to Dolanaar)
A..... Teldrassil Dolanaar

Rut'theran Village
If you're Horde Steal Flame.....
Of you're Alliance Turn in Quests

I'm ending my Guide here If there's a followup to the
quest I'm sure theres already information here on wowhead about it.

The quests you have to complete for this achievement are count in the chain. This counts for all of the extinguishing/honoring quests.

Walkthrough Guide to Completing the Fires for both Desecration of the Horde and The Fires of Azeroth. This guide is for the Alliance. If you need one for Horde here is one I found.

Before you start I suggest printing this guide and understanding this is based on having Dalaran as your hearthstone. Also understand that at times needing to back track is the only way to go. But if you see or know a better way, let me know and Ill edit. Also this guide is based on having the flight paths and having coords. If you don't have coords, download tomtom or another coords addon

I've included the main cities for the A Thief's Reward quests/King of the Fire Festival achieve. Remember, you will likely die a lot doing them, but no worries, your just picking up an item, so before trying again after dying, check your bags for the quest starter. And taking rez sickness isn't a bad thing in this case. :)

As a side note for those that are programmers: if you decide to make an addon for the world events, it would be awesome to see and I'd love to be a beta tester for it.

Congrats you have completed the Desecration of the Horde and The Fires of Azeroth

As you can tell, the Northrend fires are not included. That's because they are not part of the achievements.

This achievement gives some good money:

Extinguishing Eastern Kingdoms: 145g53s
Extinguishing Kalimdor: 158g76s
Extinguishing Outland: 92g61s
