OOOPS! Wrath of the Lich King Starting Zone Upgrades Part I here for you.
So you're on the shore in Northrend by now, one hopes, and maybe you're level 71, still tooling around the Wrath of the Lich King starting zones, looking for the right quests to do to get some decent gear for yourselves. Now if you've spent a decent amount of time in Tier 4 or better content, or if you decked yourself out in badge gear, I'll be honest, you may not find too many upgrades here. But for people who started their Hunter a little late or didn't quite clear Karazhan before the expansion, there's some very nice stuff here.
Let's take a look at the quest rewards of Howling Fjord and Borean Tundra and their attached dungeons, and see what they offer:Amulet
The Worg Fang Talisman is gotten from a set of quests at the Steel Gate in the Howling Fjord: I've Got A Flying Machine! For the Alliance, and The Artifacts of Steel Gate for the Horde. With both critical strike rating and stamina, it's just what a growing Hunter needs.
The Pungnacious Collar comes from the quest It's Time For Action for the Alliance, and Orabus the Helmsman quest for the Horde. This has a bit more attack power than the Worg Fang, but it has hit rating instead of critical strike rating. If you're missing a lot of shots, you might consider this necklace, otherwise stick with the Worg Fang.
Better than both of these is the Hundred Tooth Necklace, which comes from an Utgard Keep Quest, Disarmament. Unfortunately, only the Horde Version of that quest offers the Hundred Tooth Necklace. The Alliance version only offers the Razor-Blade Pendant, which has strength and is much more suited for other DPSers.
In the end, if you were lucky enough to grind up a Shattered Sun Pendant of Might or grab a Worgen-Claw Necklace off of the Huntsman, you're probably set on necklaces for a while. If not, any of the above might be a nice Wrath of the Lich King Starting Zone Upgrades for you.
