zygor 1 80 guide

If you’re like most players, you want to reach the max level in WoW as fast as possible. In this article, you'll learn which way is the fastest, when playing solo anyway.

Experience can be gained in several ways. You can: 

• Complete quests
• Slay monsters (mobs)
• Explore new territory 

The last one grants only minor experience of course.

Obviously, we should focus on questing and grinding. Grinding is the process of patrolling a small area, killing every respawned monster over and over again for experience and loot.

I used to belive that grinding was faster than questing, and it can be under certain circumstances. Beginners often lack the knowledge of where to find quests, complete them, and turn them in, which frequently turns questing into a time wasting nightmare.

And, even if you find a quest giver, the quest might just be too hard to solo (red or orange in the quest log) or too trivial (green or gray), and too simple quests yield only minor rewards.

After running around and exploring for hours you may find that you haven't gained much experience at all, and you would've been better off just staying in the same spot and grinding mobs your level.

The myth about grinding being faster than questing, regarding experience, was based on the above.

My experiences (at that point in time) from my own questing led me to believe that as well. Even as I considered grinding to be faster, I also knew that questing would be much more profitable on a time unit basis if I just didn't have to look everything up all the time.

Then I found this review of zygors guide and after getting the guide, my suspicions were confirmed. Questing is a LOT faster than grinding could ever be, if you know the secrets.

Having played the game more now, I've reached som new conclusions about grinding vs. questing:

Questing	Grinding
Is faster, if you follow a quest-based leveling guide.	Quest-based lvl guides leaves grinders behind.
Fun, varied	Boring, monotonous
Don’t have to be present all the time (flying, waiting for boats, etc.)	Must be at computer all the time.
Greater reputation gains.	Very low reputation increase.
Chance to study the lore.	Doesn’t let you explore any lore.
You get to see the world through your explorations.	Get to see a few areas in detail…
Get more  flight points.	You earn fewer flight points.
Improves your skills.	No skill requirements.
You get better and faster as time goes by.	Leveling up speed is limited, you have to do a lot of monotonous work.
You gain items, gold and gear upgrades.	Usually more gold, occasionally a good item.
Train first aid, professions, and skills as you pass by.	Training skills and professions forces you to take time off from grinding.
Meet more friends, chance to get into groups for some quests.	You won’t learn to play in groups, since grinding is generally done by each player by themselves.

Gold making seems to be the only real advantage of grinding.  

So now you’ve learnt that questing is better overall, and faster if you follow a leveling guide like Zygor guides.
