"The Great Outdoors" Quest in WoW Forever: Camping Guide
Willo
The Great Outdoors is a new WoW Forever quest, around level 5, that teaches you camping. An adventurer by a campfire just outside your first town gives it. You sit at the campfire to learn the basics, then go to town to learn a profession, such as Cooking, which teaches you Basic Campfire. If the sit step won't count, type /sit twice and wait about a minute.

The campfire step won't complete!
You're not alone. Since launch, "Sit near the campfire" often stays at 0/1. Players report: type /sit, then /sit again while seated, and stay by the fire about a minute. As of November 5, Blizzard hasn't commented. More on the fix.
Why does camping matter?
Camping is one of WoW Forever's new social systems: players can build campsites with vendors, repairs and profession workshops that give shared buffs. What's new in WoW Forever.
Can Willo help?
Ask me "Where's the Cooking trainer?" or "What do I need for a campfire?" And say "Write down Simple Wood and Flint and Tinder" to keep your shopping list in my Notes tab.
