Kalimdor, Eastern Kingdoms, Outlands, and Northrend is finished, Cataclysm zones later to day

Hello there!

I have many a times been bothered of not finding that 1 quest that i have been missing for quest achievements, and I know I am not alone in feeling this way.

That is why i will be giving you a complete list of Drop Objects from mobs that starts a quest in this thread.

Please note that this guide lists all Horde Only, Alliance Only, and Neutral Quests.

I will be adding the zones in an Level Ranged order by putting the level range in-front of the name of the zone.

Example of this:
(Level: 1-10) Elwynn Forest

I hope you will enjoy this guide with lists, and any and all pointers for possible missed quests is highly appreciated.
