If I want to level fast for some reason and I don't mean power leveling, I just mean I have a goal of gaining a level or two, perhaps in order to be able to equip an item from an Instance, then this is my preferred method of leveling.<BR/><BR/>I've found that while they're often interesting and provide information regarding Azeroth and its history, culture, people, etc, the Mail Run quests (as I call them) are a waste of time as far as experience/hour goes. That doesn't mean I don't do them, some Mail Run quests are good ways to accrue Reputation. The Missing Diplomat quest from Stormwind is one such quest, being long & convoluted and taking you across both continents, but in the end you're rewarded with a decent amount of both Stormwind AND Alliance Reputation and a pretty nice Blue Ring, if you complete the quest at a reasonable level that is.<BR/><BR/>In the Outlands I pretty much grabbed every quest and have been working my way through them. Initially I rejected quests that didn't have items as rewards (just gold) but I've since began working through those quests as well and last night dinged 62, although I haven't been playing and leveling as hard as I could. I also cleared a couple of Winterspring quests that were not soloable at 60 but which I was able to complete at 61 wearing Outlands gear.Cap'n Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15267651027289124037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34280462.post-1169649272073827612007-01-24T06:34:00.000-08:002007-01-24T06:34:00.000-08:00I did enough raiding at 60 not to be in any hurry ...I did enough raiding at 60 not to be in any hurry to hit 70, so I'm doing the same. Enjoying the art for the new scenery and mobs, working through the quests, and having fun. At about 10,000 xp, 2+ gold, and some rep with the new factions for each quest, I suspect its more efficient than grinding.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34280462.post-1169606242296652402007-01-23T18:37:00.000-08:002007-01-23T18:37:00.000-08:00I was originally going to do a few new quests, the...I was originally going to do a few new quests, then go to the areas that I know the best (i'm starting over from lvl 1), but after doing some of the new blood elf quests in the Ghostlands, I'm hooked. I'll probably be doing every single quest I can to avoid missing anything. What if one of the new quests has a really cool item at the end of a chain that I would love to have? Plus, it's easier to keep track of quest progression than level progression after a while.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34280462.post-1169591147430539442007-01-23T14:25:00.000-08:002007-01-23T14:25:00.000-08:00I do exactly the same, once i get into a region, i...I do exactly the same, once i get into a region, i try to get most "soloable" quests possible, turn em in, spend some time askin for group for the harder ones while i just grind a bit, and if no one takes offer, i abandon and move on to a different region;<BR/><BR/>Also, if its a chain quests and it makes me run from one continent to other, if im too lazy i drop them too..boring, long, and sometimes not worth itTauhid Chappellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17880858130444412285noreply@blogger.com
