Blizzard confirmed that the WoW Forever beta closed on October 23, 2026. Use this guide to prepare for when play resumes; launch quest behavior is unverified. Access & launch dates
Use /sit beside the questgiver’s campfire to complete the objective. Then visit a Cooking trainer to learn Basic Campfire.
Your first Camping lesson starts at the fire, not in a crafting menu.
What to do
- Stand beside the questgiver’s campfire.
- Type /sit and wait for the objective to complete.
- Follow the directions to town and visit the Cooking trainer for Basic Campfire.
- Pick up the Camping 101 introductions for professions you have learned.
Need materials for Basic Campfire?
The guide lists Simple Wood and Flint and Tinder, sold by the Cooking trainer. Check the learned recipe and your supplies before trying to place your own fire.
No Camping 101 quest for a profession?
Camping 101 quests send you to profession trainers for your first camp items. The Professions & Camping guide explains what you can add to a shared camp.
Cannot find The Great Outdoors?
The source does not list a questgiver or coordinates for every starting area. Check available quests on your own starting route; a guaranteed pickup location for each race is still unknown.
