Best Class to Level in WoW For Fast Results?



“What class should I play in World of Warcraft?” Like every MMORPG out there, this important question can only be answered by your play style and goals. If your goal is to level-up quickly in Warcraft, then the way to go is the Hunter class. I suggest this for several reasons.

A Hunter is a master of solo questing and play. After level ten, the Hunter can begin to use pets. Pets are animals from within the game world that you tame (by means of a spell) to journey with you throughout the lands. If you are new to Warcraft, then the Hunter lets you see how different monsters and critters fight your pet before you are character is physically involved in melee with an unknown assailant. While your pet fights against the enemy, you can use your gun or bow to rain damage on your foe.

Hunters have very little down time. While taking low damage and using little Focus (formerly using mana before the latest Cataclysm patch) your character can keep on questing or grinding as you want.

Hunters are also good for the casual gamer. Unlike some other online role-playing games, World of Warcraft is friendly to the casual gamer. While you will need to learn more complex strategy at higher levels regarding how your pet is and is not used in raids or instances, the Hunter is the fastest way for the casual player to move quickly into new areas and opportunities.

Hunters also have flexibility in the gear they can use. With leather armor at lower levels and chain available as your levels increase, you can use much of the protection that you might find in random drops from monsters. With the correct training, Hunters can use a wide variety of weapons from bladed one- and two-handed choices to a variety of bows and guns.

Most of the extra skills of the Hunter have the feel of cast spells. This is an easy way to learn essentials of the magic-system and ability cool-downs in the game. While rarely damage-based in the way most players might think, there are interesting traps and stings that let you customize how you approach your quest goals.

If you want to experience the breadth and width of the World of Warcraft universe, the Hunter is your fastest way to go to get new experiences in the shortest amount of time. You will also learn a great deal about game mechanics when you are just starting out in Warcraft.

Warcraft: How Often Should I Go Get Training?

Hi New-to-Warcraft friends! For anybody who is grinding your path for eighty, you will probably be tempted to get trained each time your brand-new skillsets are available. This will often slow down your progress quite a lot.

World of Warcraft How Often Should I TrainIn most cases, you don’t need to buy new training when you get to a new training . Usually, each time your own level concludes with any “-0″ may wish to take a trip for your personal trainers. In these levels, you’re going to be choosing most of the substantial spells such as teleports for the fun-to-play mages. Below 60, you will get five trainings for the first 10 level changes, so decide when it’s right for you to return home. This waiting additionally supplies you an opportunity to preserve your Toon’s Warcraft gold, also.

After you make seventy, you are able to train at each and every level. Yet again, you’ll not have to do it. There won’t be any class training mobs found in Outland, and so you should be positive it is truly worth your time and effort to go into the “vanilla WoW” locations.

If you are trying to quest fast all the way up for your desired level, it could be seriously worth the effort to have a look at your spell and training listings that are all over the net. This means it is easy to develop a plan for yourself which reminds you to omit some specific trainings and simply go on questing as well as mob-killing. You will also know for sure whenever you should run to a trainer.

As one more hint, try asking for a teleport to Dalaran as soon as you can afford. It is really mostly easy to secure a higher-level mage to offer you a port for a handful of gold. An individual can visit Dalaran from each and every level there is. It’s great to ensure this is your current home base while you are progressing simply because it provides you with entry to each of the main towns. And then, if you do need to dash in for getting some fresh training, you can use your hearthstone toward Dalaran, go find training and hearthstone back to Dalaran to get on your way to the main location closest to your quest place. Practically anywhere in Azeroth may be a quick ride these days.

What Class Should My Next World of Warcraft Character Be?

Found this question being asked online:

What should my next World of Warcraft character be? I have a level 80 rogue and I don’t want to do any of the healing classes.

Warcraft Gnome MageMy answer: For a good change of pace, why not try being a mana-slinging Mage? With several 80-level toons in WoW, I’d like to be able to play both my 80 rogue and mage simultaneously.

With both the magic-user and dagger-wielder, you get to experience 2 diverse ways of playing the game. With my high-level frost specced mage out there, I can solo open areas with easy while many of the mobs never even reach me before I have executed them. Fast, hard DPS is a great tool for fun.

The other very different way to play Warcraft is with a hunter. A hunter takes different paths to eliminate the enemy. Although some people think hunters have been nerfed a bit, I really like the different classes of pets available and their very different ways of aiding your success. Whatever you do, have fun. Remember, it’s a game. A good game for sure but if make a character that is just a big grind for you, then why bother? Go experiment.

What are “Achievements” in World of Warcraft?

What are Achievements in World of Warcraft? Why don’t you go jump off a ledge, newbie?

No, wait, I am not being mean. I’m just suggesting that you try one of the achievements in Wow named “Going Down?” Actually, try a whole bunch of these achievements.

Achievements are lists of the things you have done in World of Warcraft. They are tied to each character and can really fun to do if you are in place when you are a bit bored and looking for something fun to do. Along with all the basic achievements of “vanilla” WoW, each new expansion such as World of Warcraft Cataclysm or “Wrath of the Lich King” brings a whole new set of things to do. Most achievements do not award anything special, but a few do bring titles, unique pets or flying mounts. These kind rewards are usually very hard to earn or take a very long stretch of time. Some people like to compare achievements or the “points” they have from doing these tasks. It really doesn’t effect your game play.

So, for example, when you fall from an area for at least 65 feet and don’t die, you get a special achievement that is called “Going Down.” Most of my characters have gotten this achievement really by accident. (/em blush) However, you can also do it on purpose. For example, try jumping (not just running) off of the very top level of the Stormwind Harbor, just as you come out of the tunnel from the main city. Jump high near the lamppost and try to land on the one of the ballistic machines below. It’s a long run back if you fail, but it’ll feel sweet when you make it. By the way, everyone has a different opinion on where to do certain achievements, so don’t get too worried about hearing different ideas.

Some achievements that you can only get under special circumstances. These are called “Feats of Strength (FoS).” For example, all my characters have a “Netherwhelp” companion pet that I got from buying the “Burning Crusade” collector’s edition. (See picture to the left.) There is no other way to get it. I also have other FoS rewards from things like going to BlizzCon or logging in for anniversary celebrations.

“How can I see my Warcraft achievements?” That is easy to do. On your keyboard, the command is usually pressing the Y key, unless you have reset it. You can also use your mouse to click on the Shield Icon on the Interface (your screen) command bar. Both of those will bring up your list of achievements as well as a bunch of other information. Here is an example below from my Bank alt.

Now you can go jump off a ledge.

Do you have a favorite Achievement? Tell us about in the comments section below.

Hunter has played World of Warcraft for a long time and has a bunch of FoS. (Hooray Achievements!) He has a bank alt or two because he uses this great gold-making system. Come check it out. . Never buy gold, cuz it’s too easy to earn it.

How to Get Gold in World of Warcraft: A Newbie Basic

So you are New to WOW or World of Warcraft Cataclysm? Here is a gold-making tip for brand-new Alliance newbies.

1. Kill everything you can from the moment you arrive.
Don’t run past things to get to the next place. Nuke or slice away on your way to where it is you are going. Then, sell everything that you put in your backpack. Only spend money on your basic training. Gear matters very little when you are first starting out. Keep up this grinding process until you have about 10 silver. It will happen fast.

2. Sell a basic thing: herbs.
If you are in Stormwind, go all the way around to the flower shop that is near the unused instance-gate. It’s called Fragrant Flowers. Go just up the road from the Stormwind Gryphons and make the first right. Go through that tunnel and then make a right again. All the way down at the end of that road is the Flower Shop. You are also going to need this Shop later for the “Stormwind Seasonings” when you get questing in the Darkshire region.

In the flower shop, spend a few of your silver on one of the cheaper herbs that the vendor sells such as mageroyal or earthroot. Typically these will sell for about 75 (or so) copper. Don’t spend all your silver here! The vendor’s name is Bernard Gump and he is at the basic coordinates 69, 71. Don’t buy flowers from any of them. They’re junk.

Hint: Later on, you will be asking, “Where do I get Stormwind seasoning?” The answer is: the lady right next to Bernard. Make a note in your head about this.

4. Auction House Buy Out
Take these few herbs and go put them up on the auction house. You will need a few silver to put the herbs at a buy out price of 20-40 silvers each. On most servers, this should be a steal price for the other players. Sell the herbs individually and be sure you have a buy-out price.

Do this process a few times and you will be on your way to a few gold. I’ve used this exact basic process to have hundreds of gold on my first level characters multiple times over. Slow and steady and profitable should be your goal. Start with this very basic process.

There is never a need to beg other for gold or say stupid things in trade-chat about needing money.

The very best gold-making guide on the market is this one. Come get your copy.

Raiding Onyxia’s Lair

Raiding Onyxia’s Lair
By Bret Jones

Onyxia’s Lair was redesigned from the 40 man level 60 raid it used to be to a new 10 and 25 man instance for level 80′s in Wrath of the Lich King.

Along with this redesign came newer gear. In a 10 man Onyxia the gear item levels will be 232 and in a 25 man Onyxia the gear item levels will be item level 245. This is an exact match of regular 10 man and 25 man Trial of the Crusader.

Although the loot is new and the encounter levels have changed, the actual encounter has basically not. There are three phases during the fight:

Phase 1: Ground
Phase 2: Air, whelps come out of sides
Phase 3: Ground, crazy AoE Fear

At any given time if someone runs into the sides where the whelp eggs are, they will bring with them a ton of whelps and probably get kicked out of the raid. Since AoE damage has been normalized AoE’ing the whelps is not quite as great of the DPS as it used to be but there are people who will spike as high as 12k dps or more during the whelp stages.

Most of what you’ll be getting for loot will be class specific heads and a few randomized weapons. The Head of Onyxia is usable by all classes and starts a quest that can be exchanged for a few things, an agility based neck, a defense based trinket, or a caster ring.

Unfortunately, due to the recent Icecrown Citadel Patches and Ruby Sanctum it is very rare to find a pick up group that is going to do Onyxia as the setup time and fail rate of players is very high making the rewards not worth the risk and time.

Bret Jones is the author of WoW Gear Guide, a site that shows loot lists for all raids and loot lists for all classes in game for each raid.

Best Leveling Spec For Hunter

By James Rolan

Trying to figure out the best leveling spec for hunter? We’ll discuss the two viable choices for a strong leveling spec, and what you need to do to make them really shine!

The first option is the simpler to play and less gear dependant Beast Mastery. BM hunters have respectable damage even in mediocre gear, which is handy for leveling as many players can’t afford to stay geared to the teeth. Second, the pet has improved aggro and tanking skills, meaning you don’t have to spend a lot of time Feign Death-ing and kiting. For a good BM leveling spec, focus on utility for your pet and improving your pets damage; your damage is important, but you REALLY want your pet doing as much as possible to improve its aggro. Mana isn’t as big a deal, since your pet does good damage and with Improved Aspects your damage in Viper Stance isn’t too bad.

The other possible choice for best leveling spec for hunter is Marksmanship. Marksmanship is capable of far more damage than BM, but your pet will be strained to hold aggro. You’ll want something with a pin or snare, like a crab or Hyena, and you’ll need good timing for abilities like Feign Death and Deterrence, so you can dump aggro and kite without loosing damage. If you do pull it off, though, Marksmanship is incredibly strong. Focus on talents that improve your shots and stings, and prioritize mana efficiency the most; the less time you spend in Viper Stance the better. Marksmanship is also a lot stronger in the potential gear department, as you get attack power from Intelligence, meaning Int gear is far better; of note is the Heirloom mail gear, which is okay for other hunters but completely amazing for Marksmanship thanks to a large dose of Int.

Hope this article helped you figure out which spec to go for. If you’re looking to level quicker, check out my comparison review of the top leveling guides and find yourself a good one – addons and the in-game quest tool don’t really compare.

Three Tips to Help Your World of Warcraft Levelling

World of Warcraft Leveling Tips to Help You Hit Level 80 Fast
By Tony Bolton

(Guest Post)

The game of World of Warcraft is ever expanding with the release of patches, and content for the game. The latest expansion the Wrath of the Lich King allows players to level from 70 to 80 now which for many players has added some needed freshness to the game. Though there are a number of guides out there to help you level up to 80 faster, However I feel that leveling can also be done without a guide so I wanted to focus on a few World of Warcraft leveling tips that can help you do just that.

1. Get a bigger bag. Nothing is more frustrating then when you are about to leave for a quest or when you find yourself far away from town discovering that your bag is full. So as soon as you get a chance make sure you get a bigger bag this really helps cut down on the amount of trips back to town just to empty out your bags.

2. Consider add-ons that will save you time. Some of the best add-ons available include the “carbonite quest,” “auctioneer” and my favorite, “auto profit.” Auto profit is very useful as it sells the items which you would have classified as gray junk to the vendor and it does all this in just one click. This is extremely useful, as it saves a ton of time, which can then be spent leveling. The carbonite quest works more or less like a quest helper with better mini maps and a really good quest tracker.

3. Get your mount as fast as you can. It is important to remember that travelling on a mount increases your travel speed thus cutting down on wasted travel time. So even for those players in the higher level zones’, upgrading your mount is just as effective for over over level 60 players as getting your first mount was at level 40

Of course there is a lot more World of Warcraft leveling tips but there just isn’t the time and space to cover all those in just one article. I suggest to learn more visit our site we cover a lot more WoW leveling tips as well review many of the leveling aids out there, so that you can reach level 80 faster then all your friends
