World of Warcraft The Burning Crusade - Mage Outland Instance Loot and Instance Quests
Although grinding is an important part of a mage's leveling process, you'll have to go through the Outland instances a few times too, not only for the experience, but also for the gear drops. At level 70, instances are one of the best (and sometimes only) way of getting reputation with a specific faction but while grinding this rep, you might as well grind for some gear too. This section is dedicated to presenting you some of the best mage gear that you can get from the Outland instances (by Outland instances I also mean Old Hillsbrad Foothills and the Black Morass, although they are not on Outland but...). Combine the gear you will find in instances with rep rewards and BoE drops and you'll get your mage dressed up for the ball.
Outland instances have two run modes, namely Normal and Heroic and some drops are only available in a specific type of run, while others drop in both modes.
