The Great Outdoors is the first camping quest in Dun Morogh. WoW Forever added campfires that give a rest bonus, and this quest shows you how they work: you sit by a fire until a buff appears. It is quick and opens the Camping 101 quests.

Step by step
- Finish The Adventurer so Eric Brighthammer offers the quest.
- Take The Great Outdoors from Eric in Kharanos.
- Sit down next to Eric’s Basic Campfire. Use /sit or the sit key.
- Stay seated until you get Boosted Rest. Both objectives tick off when the buff appears.
- Turn in to Eric and take the Camping 101 quests.
Rewards
About 410 XP. ForeverDB does not record an item reward. The real reward is the knowledge: any campfire works the same way later, and our camping guide shows how to get more out of it.
Tips / common problems
- Sit, do not stand. The quest checks that you are seated near the fire.
- Stay close. Sit right next to Eric’s fire, not at the edge of the camp.
- Other starting zones. ForeverDB lists this quest in Dun Morogh. Our camping guide reports camping intro quests in other starting zones too, but we have not checked their names there.
