Refer to this list of the best starting zones Horde WoW Classic offers to see which one appeals to you most before making a character.
In World of Warcraft, Horde starting zones include Durotar for the Orcs and Trolls, Mulgore for the Tauren, and Tirisfal Glades for the Undead. Though it’s possible to travel between these zones if you don’t like the one you started out at, most players tend to finish their starter zone before moving onto greener pastures (quite literally, for Orc and Troll players tired of the desert).
The best Horde starting zone really comes down to whether you prefer the grassy, American-inspired scenery of Mulgore or the dark, gloomy, and downright scary setting of Tirisfal Glades. Durotar is a great place in terms of the lore of the Horde, but in terms of the best Horde starting areas, it’s lacking some of the high points that Mulgore and Tirisfal come with. Durotar
Races: Orc, Troll
Continent: Kalimdor
Nearby Zones: The Barrens, Stonetalon Mountains
Durotar is a rocky wasteland, essentially a swathe of orange-brown dirt and rock surrounding a road that leads all the way to Orgrimmar. Durotar is the starting zone for the Orc and Troll races, but like Dun Morogh for the Alliance, it’s just not that interesting compared to the other Horde starting zones of Mulgore and Tirisfal Glades.
