While the Zygor Guides addon might let you skip greyed out quests (not sure if you can set it to skip a quest that has to be completed in order, before you can progress with the quest chain), doing so wouldn't help you.

You need to do all of the quests, in order to escape the starting area.

I know, later on you can set it to skip quests that are non-beneficial.
And it will have you do a few here and there, but only because they are prerequisites for later quests, which will not be greyed out.



I would probably do the Goblin zone once.
And if I ever felt the need for another Goblin character... level anything else, and then race change afterwards.
A hundred bucks is a better choice than that degree of gathering, an extra time through with five toons.
