Playing the beta, something I forgot about were all of the cool hidden quests in the game - thought it would make for an interesting series to show them off! I'll be sure to return to this soon as I have quite a few I've run into in the beta. Speaking of which, I've started streaming over on Twitch - if you'd like to catch me live my channel is at www.twitch.tv/madseasonshow. Thanks for watching!

Mor'Ladims Quest is probably the one most memorable quest for me. I remember first doing it on my Paladin during TBC, fighting a Folk Legend with a rather tragic backstory, who once was a warrior of hope, just as I was. Slaying the beast in a long and hard battle, freeing the mans spirit and learning that his daughter actually wasn't dead. He would then gave me his sword before passing on, which during his life was a weapon of justice, and will be once more now that it was in my hands. It was something straight out of a fairy tail and I was very young back then, this Questchain will probably remain my favourite Questchain in all of WoW until the day I ded.

There's one of my favorite hidden quest called *It's a Secret to Everybody*, in *Un'Goro Crater*. It was added in patch 1.11.1.10772 and it starts from the broken boat. It guides the adventure seeker though all Kalimdor all the way from Un'Goro to the Winterspring. It also has pretty neat rewards and is a reference to The Legends of Zelda. Please, bump up my comment so MadSeasonShow will be able to see the quest and, I hope, share this quest with his nice audience.

You really have no idea how well loved you are, MadSeason. Whenever someone in the various WoW Facebook groups mentions videos and who to watch, yours is the one mentioned most often and with great respect and affection by all. You are a true gem amongst the stones. Don't ever change.

Fun little tidbit: the "Sully Balloo" quest is an Easter eggy reference to something outside the game, and it's cool to see this! I never knew about this in WoW. In the American Civil War, Sullivan Ballou wrote a letter (a beautiful letter) to his wife shortly before he died at First Manassas. It's well worth looking up! :)

I know this comment is late to the game, and idk if someone already mentioned it (I only scrolled through some of- not all- the comments), but i figured it was definitely worth sharing!

As I get caught up in life’s intricacies, your videos are the only link I have to what is my ultimately suppressed passion for WoW. In other words, I live vicariously through your videos. Hopefully one day I can find time for the game that acted very much like a therapist for me during a good chunk of my life. Thank you for your videos, MadSeason. 🤙🏻

I remember Mor'Ladim killing me and my friends repeatedly in Duskwood. We got so pissed at one wipe. We decided to just pull him and take him on 4 v 1. ...it did not work so well for us. Everytime he killed us we just immediately ran back to our corpses to continue the fight. We all died about 5 or 6 times before we just gave up and ran. When I learned that there's a quest you can get to depower him and get a neat 2hander, I grabbed it up immediately. I still kept the sword past Cataclysm when they replaced the Archeus with the "True Archeus" which is a decent 1 hander. But that sword was my momento. And since it's unobtainable in retail nowadays I feel like it's pretty special.

Love the FFX music in the background. Fits in very well. Keep up the major content man!

Thx for those hidden quests, I knew a few of them, brought back a little memory from the chicken quest, it was told that you had to run around the chicken while doing the emote, had lots of fun watching guys doing this ^^

Your music choice is always on point. I find myself reminiscing to dozens of old RPGs while listening to your videos. Thanks for keeping those memories alive!

I love your channel so much, MadSeason! Nothing hits my nostalgia feels like you do. Talking about the old days of WoW, and even throwing in some classic Zelda music? You freaking rock dude.

I came back to wow a few months ago after watching all your videos and having the biggest nostalgia trip from when I started at the end of vanilla, thanks for all your videos so enjoyable to watch. Cant wait for classic !

Didn't expect the video to contain any quests I don't yet know about, but I had no clue the last one existed. Great stuff!

I’ve been watching you for more than a year now and I absolute love your content man. It’s like a tether to a simpler time, so nostalgic it warms my heart. Also I did almost all these quest back in the day, either with thottbot or just by being curious and wandering around. Great upload my friend!

The bootflask quest is one I still refer back to when talking about old wow. For one just finding it when it is tucked away on a hill in a lower level zone is one thing but the sheer amount of hidden items you need to find is nuts. Also linkens quest, the fairy dragon pet quest hidden up a small path, the essence of eranikus turn in and all the dungeon quest givers that are nowhere near the the dungeons. Always fun sharing quests at the start of a dungeon then having to explain at the end where the hell the turn in npc is.

I just wanted to say, I havent watched the video yet, but I was having an absolute terrible day.... clicked on the video and soon as the music started, it's like a wave of comfort washed over me and calmed my anxiety down.. I always know I'm in for a treat when I sit down to watch you, and I just wanted to say thank you. You mean more to us as a community than you might realize. 🤘✌

thanks for the beautiful video. cant wait to explore old azeroth again. these old mysterious quests were another layer of magic in this wonderful world.

Zelda Kakariko + FFX Sprouting + Dwarf Tavern. Your choice of music is so on point. Calm, relaxing, fits your unique style, and triggered so many memories of mine, spending time in the past and dive myself into all these awesome stories of these greate games. Thank you so much for your effort, your videos, and for reviving these beautiful memories of mine. Keep up the good work MadSeason!

Your not wrong about the Horde. Poor scrubs. I agree that the exploration in classic was part of the experience coming across a quest while you are playing on your alt that you never knew about was great. Having to read the and pay attention to the hint or clues in the text made you feel a sense of accomplishment at the end of the quest lines. Great video. Looking forward to seeing more.

Dude - the hidden stuff, especially the quests were my favorite thing about Classic. Thanks for making this video, if there's anything you left out please make another!

Dang, just seeing Captain Sander’s Treasure Map sent memories rushing back to me. Feels like it just happened all over again. Haven’t even finished the video and I love it.

Gosh, I loved the Mills thing in Tirisfal glades, the Duskwood Mor'Ladim questchain, reading the book you got afterwards was like " Damn, a land put to rot under the hands of a slayed family"

Thank you for the reminders about some of the best quests in Classic,... I just installed the Classic Wow data files and now it's getting real!! YAY! Great job and please keep the videos coming,...

I did a few of these in my Vanilla days! Thank you for reigniting the memories where the first thing I'd do in a new zone was simply explore it for secrets :D

Ah, a new Madseasonshow video. A wonderful way to start the day

Love your channel, MadSeason. You’re such a talented storyteller, and your passion is truly evident about both your love of the game and your content.

Man these really take me back. I wish they would do more quests like these. 14 years later I still remember the names Sully and Sara Balloo. Cant say the same for many modern quest NPCs. The ones that give you that special feeling of discovery really stick with you

Awesome video, madseason! In the stress test (lv15) i was exploring the world and I went through the bridge from wetlands to arathi and didn't even notice this Quest. As you said, without Quest markers, you easily miss these quests. Keep up the good work! Love your videos! And keep streaming! Watched u last week and it was really funny!

Loved the use of FF music during the video. Exactly what I would have been listening to while doing some of these quests. Thanks for sharing!

I just love how much effort, dedication and passion you put in your videos MadSeason. Huge respect from Germany!

Ran into you in the beta on accident and it made my day! Thanks for all the great entertainment over the years!

I only knew a few of these which is saying something considering how long I've played and how much I like this kind of stuff. Cool video.

i nearly know 90% of them...omg...i was so deep in this world...the music at end make me tear......those years of life is a worth treasure for me.

Btw, Captain Sanders treasure map can be traded to another player when you are done doing the quest.

Just came across this video today. A few quests there I didn't know about from my Vanilla days, so am looking forward to given them a go in Classic. For those wondering, who is probably no one, the Capt Sanders locations are similar today as they were in Vanilla. The chimney is just not near a huge hole int eh ground is all haha.

awesome video! It's going to be an adjustment finding random things again after being used to the "sparkles" for the last decade+

Great video! These types of quests were few and far between but actually felt special when you found them. I love the chicken pet quest! If you do get to Cataclysm with this series, please cover the Singing Songflower quest! Everyone should experience it at some point, IMO.

Appreciate the videos man, been playing wow since vanilla and I missed some of these quests👍

So I knew about all of these but the horde only and last one. I'm watching this while working thr graveyard shift. Now all I can think about doing is these quests when I get home at 2 1/2 hours Haha thanks man!

The music you add in your videos (especially ones from other games) is so awesome!

I'm grateful for existing in the same timeline as you do, sir. Thanks for the memories

Awesome video! I found a few of these on my first 60 toon before questhelper was a thing and before I knew about thotbot. The one that got me good was the wetlands bridge hidden one. I tried to jump to that quest like 15 times and kept missing. It wasn't until I was 60 and got a slow fall potion I finally went back and did that quest. I though the reward would be some kind of amazing mount or something since in my mind it was a hard quest to get to. Oh well it still felt good completing it. By the way as many times as I missed that jump and landed in the water I never noticed the skeleton at the bottom with that other quest. I guess I was focused on figuring out how to make that jump. Man I can't wait for classic!!!

I hears me some zelda tune playing. It adds to the calm day dreamy reminiscent feeling of remembering vanilla. Great vid.

I really like the artstyle and story of Warcraft. I'm a relatively new player who plays on occasion really. I recently got a month long of play time to give the game another shot. I tried my hardest to make the game more immersive (Keep in mind, this is Legion questing). I toggled the minimap off so that I wouldn't see the quest markers, and I tried to read the quests thoroughly before accepting them as oddly, most of them still give you directions on where to go. Of course, without a compass it is hard to discern directions, so sometimes I would have to really quickly toggle the minimap on and off to re-orient myself without seeing where to go exactly. This forced me to pay attention to my environment and pay attention to the characters, which immediately made the game much more immersive. I had to know where I was, slowly creating a mental map of the place in my mind and paying attention to the dialogues made me learn more about the characters. I would even toggle the UI off while walking into a new hub area so that I would have to discover quests instead of being told where to go directly. Needless to say, you really have to go out of your way to make the game more engaging and immersive, as opposed to what classic seems to be where you have to go out of your way to make it less immersive via external websites for tips. I can't wait to hop into classic, create a horribly unoptimized build and just embark on a journey of questing and just taking in the beautiful low-poly world. I'm thinking about creating a Tauren Shaman Tank.

Awesome video! Always a pleasure to get home from work and get a notification from you!

Lot of quests, I didn't know of. Should be useful for Classic WoW. Thank you, MadSeason!

I played WoW for like 6+ years from BC onward and never knew about the wailing caverns "secret" cave. Thanks for the info. Sometimes info slips through the cracks for even seasoned players.

This is exactly what I am looking forward in the Classic. To wander around and feel like it's actually rewarding. I'm also interested to see how Azeroth looked like before the Cataclysm.

I remember a lot of those Westfall quests. Great video!!

Can't believe you didnt mention the best hidden quest in the classic! Linken's quest chain was the absolute shit, i still have the faded photograph on my rogue. Love the work Mad!

I did the Quest of Lore chain back in the day, but mostly just the jumping part. I didn't even remember it being hard to find the quest giver :) I also remember Foggy MacKreel in that broken up bridge, but I guess I must have helped out a friend with that as I was Horde.

YAY!! Mad Season video!! I don't care what it is, I just love listening... I mean watching his videos. But hidden quests are fun to find out about as well, so bonus!

I can't say enough just how much I Love Every vid' you put out. I have a long list of notifications covering many topics and I save you for last. WHY on God's green Earth are you not yet at 1,2,3,5 million subs >. Thank you again for all of your content..I find it to be perfection.

That's a great idea you had there, i liked a lot this vídeo and can't wait to see the next one, love you and you work Mr madseason :)

Test of Lore Chain: while you did mention the 'Mark of shame" you left out the most important detail about this entire chain. I haven't tested this in beta yet but originally this debuff made you neutral with all Horde NPC's and they would no longer interact with you. No bank, no flightpaths, no vendors etc. However, they were also now attackable and we had all kinds of fun with this debuff in Vanilla. Horde raid on Thrall anyone?

I've been plowing through these videos like crazy the last weeks. I'm going to be an absolute expert att Vanilla content.

The point of Test of Lore chain is that it gives a lot of reputation with Horde factions. It's handy for getting discounts and helps with achieving exalted if you wanna buy mounts.

New MadSeasonShow video! Day just keeps gettin better and better

I actually love the secret quests *and* the secret quest videos. The videos don't ruin the coolness of going and finding the quests, I don't remember every detail of the video anyway so I still get to explore and if I start to get frustrated I know I can give up and come back here for more hints.

I really really enjoy that you use the final fantasy music as background in your videos! :)

I remember reading a blizzard comment near the release of cataclysm before the overhaul that their were quests from vanilla that no one ever found. I'm excited to try and look for these hidden quests when classic releases

11:58 - I was thinking of that one. Rewarded an excellent trinket back when those were hard to come by, and it could last you many, many levels. One of my toons still has it in his bank

This was awesome!!! I had some of those, but certainly not all! Thank you.

Hey mate, thanks for your videos! Your voices is so calm and relaxing and your content is always interesting.

These are great Mad, keep them coming!

Another great episode. I don't know if I can get any more excited for classic!

I remember back in BC when I met somebody in Westfall who showed me the hidden chicken quest.. good old times. But those hidden quests are what make the game soooo good.

I enjoy this channel every lunch and before bedtime 👍🏻😁, thank you

This in an awesome series to prep players for launch day! Thank you for making useful content!

Would be nice to see this miniseries going into all the hidden and drop quests :)

The Sully Balloo quest is based off a letter that Sullivan Balloo wrote his wife Sarah days before being killed at the battle of first Bull Run during the Civil War and in a way foreshadowed his death. Pretty cool quest Blizz!

This is very interesting, MadSeason! Thanks for sharing :)

Thanks for all your posts like your laid back style, looking forward to Classic

The questline that begins near Camp Mojache that results in a Sprite Darter pet... it involved global travel and timed turn-ins and while it may not be a big secret, it was a total surprise to me when I found it as an alliance player!

There are two quests in Desolace with twink quest rewards, but before twinks they were still great, back in the day when ammo was needed for ranged weapons. The two centaur tribes gave the "Explosive Shot" or "Feathered Arrow" rewards, which hit like a cannon. If you were a hunter they were must have for duels, and for twinks, you could usually one-shot many lower level opponents. I have a couple of level 10 twinks, one a huntress, and she held these rewards for special dueling occasions!

Loved this video, and I can't wait to delve into classic with you all :-)

Love it mad. We need more.
