Was just there on a NE rogue, configured as Outlaw. So my advice is from that perspective, but you get idea:
- Garrison - unfortunately, there is built-in limits on speed of upgrading buildings. You can’t buy level 2 or 3 buildings until you reach levels 96, 98, and 100. At 101, the WoD areas start to drop significantly in XP. Based on that, level buildings the best you can, I did these: Town Hall - 3, Herb Garden - 3, Mine - 3; Lumber Mill - 2, Stables - 2, Dwarf Bunker - 1, and Storehouse - 1. Only thing you get out of a Town Hall 3 at 100 is the portal to Ashran, and since you won’t be using it much past level 101, you can skip it to save gold. - Levels 91-95 - Continue to work on getting Garrison built. All the gold you have leftover from chest-hunting will be put to use to build out a Garrison. Continue entry quests, you need to save up some Garrison Resources. To open the Garrison Mines, there is a named boss you have to kill. I had to use a F.R.I.E.D explosive plus a Shieldtronic Shield to take him out. Was rough. - Levels 96-99 - The garrison continues. At 96, you should be able to open the herbing dailies for more points. Continue to wander the countryside stealthed, grabbing treasures and discovery XP. Do simple fetch / low-risk quests for points. Hint: Grappling Hook is a great way to reach treasures in Nagrand without the need of flight.

I just hit 90 and have no idea how I'm going to open my garrison after reading the horror stories. Any ideas of how to deal with the big guy under the tree, etc...? This is on a pally.
Thanks V

Also, is there a rule against buying a treasure map?

I can't really help for opening the garrison on a pally, since I never got one high enough. I'm gonna see if I can find someone to answer that
For the treasure map, do you mean the ones that give missions for followers? Could you post a link to wowhead for one of them?

Something like this: www.wowhead.com/item=118728/shadowmoon-valley-treasure-map[/quote]those are blue items, so I'd say not allowed. Besides, you need to do all the quest chains in a zone to be able to buy it (checked on a non iron), which is quite hard for irons You can always use some addon like HandyNotes or Gathermate to show the chests location though

I got a pally through the intro quests to start the garrison. I waited until I was 91 so I could use the rocket and sonic shield. The guy in the tree is the choke point. He has 5x your health and resets if you go out from the tree cave. To be honest I couldn't take him myself. I tried half a dozen times and would bail by running back out of the cave and let him reset when I ran out of mana for heals. I got lucky and another player came along doing the same quest chain. They had not done that quest before it seemed, the druid would try to DPS it at range and the mob kept resetting when leaving the tree cave. I charged in and started tanking it and let them DPS it at range.
That was the only way I could get the garrison open. I don't think a pally can open it by themselves since BfA came out.

The maps are fine to use if a blue/epic bag or mount is allowed... it's not like it adds any kind of benefit that the many addons people use give anyways.

yes all the treasures are ok, and also the bonus objectives (unless you're bloodthirsty as both are considered quests)

'Ster, does your comment about chests in Winterspring apply to Silverbound chests? I did not notice a significant xp boost at level 70.
Thanks.

So, having recently leveled a couple of toons, each draining WS for all the points I can get. Often go to WS as soon as I ding 40, and continue with a visit daily, till around level 92ish, when the points drop. So far, all chests in WS give the same XP as completing a quest. On a good day, if the chests have not been farmed yet, you can pick up around 4 of them in a loop around the zone. Seems like a 4 hour cooldown until they respawn. But definitely worth the trip. Often Xaya, Ash, and myself take turns cleaning out WS of the treasures.

Somehow I find this cheating. You're not able to use a hard-earned in-game item, but add-ons are OK
