| Leveling Tips
0 Leveling can be a pain sometimes, but by following a few simple guidelines you can make it very easy. First off, I'll discuss the three methods of leveling. Questing, grinding and instancing. Everyone has their own opinion of what is the best way to level. Really, if you want to be leveling in a fast and efficent way, you should mix all three methods together. Now, how does this work? First, you go to the area you want to level in. (E.G. Duskwood, at level 25). Then you head to the major towns/cities and pick up all the quests. Now, go out and do as many quests as you can, but try to not always be running back to town. Eventually, you will only have group/elite quests left. This is where you run an instance. Pick an instance close to your level, do all the pre-quest work and then run the instance until its starts to get a bit boring. Then is time to grind. Grinding for long periods of time is very boring, so just grind for as long as you can. Try to find a spot where the monsters die fast and have good drops. After all of this, your ready to do the elite/group quests. You may be able to solo some, otherwise just find a group to help you. Now your level is probably high enough to move on to the next zone and repeat the process. Using a mixture of leveling techniques allows you to obtain the benefits of each technique without becoming bored quickly. There are a few other things that could speed up your leveling. 1. Buy the biggest bags you can, as soon as you can. Early on, you don't need good armor and bags off the Auction House shouldn't cost too much. 2. Always loot EVERYTHING. Even grey vendor trash can add up to make some good money. 3. Sell all greens/blue/reagants/cloth on the Auction House. People pay heaps for those. 4. Use your talent points in a way that increases your dps and reduces downtime. The faster you can kill a monster and then jump to the next one, the faster you level. 5. Before purchasing a mount, kill all monsters while you are traveling. This provides an extra boast to your experience. I hope you found these tips helpful for leveling your World of Warcraft character.

i think this is good
now, it is nearly impossible to do an instance as a lowbie when u want to. no one will go unless they're ran through, as proven in other comment. unless u have a good buddy who will run you, or ur willing to wait roughly 5-8 hours to do a regular run... ur pretty much S.O.L.
Also, speed is awesome, and all, but if you absolutely HATE grinding, like i do, for example, ur better off questing in the continent's equivelant for your lvl. like suppose you are lvl 15, in westfall, but want a quick lvl boost... well, loch modan would be the equivelant. It's worth just a tad bit of traveling time to do a few fast green quests and have a bunch of yellow ones again.
If you absolutely HAVE to grind, and you enjoy pvp, do a bunch of bgs for a lvl or two for relief from questing... it fills the gaps in lvls you're missing and you get bg points as you go for pvp gear.
I find that doing a zone, and then its equivelant from lvl 1-20 helps. then when it is group quest time due to lets say redridge or duskwood... (alliance) u can pretty much solo the group quests when u get to the group quest only point.
other than that, i agree with u completely, but you should also remember a nice playlist helps

Some sound tips. Here's my take on a few of these ideas...
I usually avoid group quests, unless I can find a reliable person in the zone while doing other quests. Trying to solo them or waiting to get a group can waste a lot of time. Check the XP value of the quest, and see if you could get the same amount of xp in 10 or 15 minutes of grinding. If you can... why not just kill stuff and save yourself the frustration?
Also, I only run instances now if I have guildies to run me through it. Pugging low level instances usually isn't good (although I did it on my first character, to experience some of the stuff). If you have all of the quests ready, a single run through will give you a big XP boost. If you're not doing any quests though, you'll probably get my XP in the same amount of time grinding.
