So, you’ve done the whole War Within campaign once and you don’t feel like dragging your alt through all that again. Good news: there are a couple of ways to skip the intro and campaign—but only if you’ve already done the work on your main.
Here’s how you can skip campaigns with your alts in The War Within.

Skip the Intro Scenario
If you're starting the War Within on a level 70 character, you can skip the opening intro with a little help from some familiar faces:
Horde: Talk to Thrall in Silithus
Alliance: Speak to Khadgar in Dalaran (Legion version)
This will get you past the intro scenario. It doesn’t skip the full campaign, just the opening segment.
Skip the Full Leveling Campaign
To fully skip the leveling campaign (the meat of it), you need to meet these conditions:
Your main character has completed the entire War Within campaign
Your alt has hit level 80
Once both of those boxes are checked, you’ll get a quest on your alt to speak to Brann Bronzebeard in Dornogal (he’s near the flight master). From there, you can choose to skip the leveling story entirely and jump straight into endgame.
No tricks, just talk to Brann and get moving.
What If You Already Started the Campaign on an Alt?
Bad news here. If your alt already started the campaign before your main finished it, you won’t get the skip. Not even from Brann. You’ll have to finish the campaign the old-fashioned way on that alt.
Final Blurb
Skipping in The War Within only works if you actually do the whole thing once. No shortcuts for the shortcut. But if you’re done with the story grind on your main and just want to dive into alts, Blizzard does at least throw you a bone with Brann and a big fat campaign skip. Use it wisely.
