The rare Dark Hooded Cape is the one to want, and Nimar the Slayer, a rare spawn, carries it on about 10% of kills.The rest sits in the 30–38 band beside it: 7 items in all.2 of them drop from creatures living only here; the other 5 are rewards the zone keeps to itself.

Arathi Highlands is thinner for a rogue than for most: 7 against the paladin's 27.The Horde board here runs to 28 quests against the Alliance's 17, so the two sides are not walking the same zone.By level 60 another 107 world drops can surface here, but they surface anywhere in Eastern Kingdoms and there is nothing to chase.A rogue outgrows the band before the list runs out, so fill the slots that are empty and go.

50 world drops could surface for a level 34 rogue — anywhere at all, so there’s nothing to chase here.

Something in here is wrong.

Say what it is. It goes straight to a person.
