I am level 80 but I can not get the quests at Dorian's Outpost..

I have done every other quest that I can find in Sholazar Basin.

What are the prerequisites?

Comment by phillymike101

I didnt go over there pre http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=12569 but after you turn that in you get a quest to come here. Everything was open for me.

Confirmed that you need to complete
http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=12569
http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=12556
and then pick up the following quest from Hemet Nesingwary, that tells you to go and speak with Dorian.

An update. After 3.1, you may not get credit for killing the primordial drakes. GMs know about it, and all they'll tell you is that its a known bug, and will fix it as soon as possible.

Sharpening Your Talons

Kill 6 Primordial Drakes and then speak with Dorian Drakestalker at Dorian's Outpost.

	Primordial Drake slain (6)

Description

The primordial drakes occupy most of the area to the north and east, and I can feel the heat of their breath even at this distance. Before we can challenge the mightiest among the drakes, we must test our skills against the lesser creatures.

Still, don't let your guard down; any one of these beasts can devour a man whole. Once you've familiarized yourself with the combat tactics of these drakes, return and I will tell you our next step.
