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.

 

 

 

If you have decided to play as a member of the Horde faction, you’ll need to select the right kind of race for your character. There are five main races for the Horde faction, including Blood Elves, Orcs, Tauren, Undead and Trolls. Make your choice wisely as each one has definite assets and drawbacks. To assist with leveling as a horde a good guide to check it is Joanas Horde Leveling Guide.

Blood Elves

 

 – This race is known for its magical powers. They were once part of the race of High Elves, they have since changed and become members of the Horde faction. If you want to fight with your brains rather than might then these elves are perfect. The skills associated with Blood Elves include the Arcane Torrent which silences enemies within eight yards, the Mana Tap which will drain the energy of their enemies and their ability to reduce the efficacy of magic spells cast against a group.　

Orcs

Tauren

Undead

Trolls

Once you make your decision to play in the Horde faction, you’re going to need to get through the levels as quickly as possible. Getting bogged down taking quests can literally take hours if not days to progress through the initial levels. One of the best ways to speed things up is to grind.

Introduction to Grinding

Grinding is a nice way of saying slaughtering all the mobs you can get your hands on. You’re going to need to get grinding, if you want to get more experience points and more importantly, more gold for your Horde character. The problem for a lot of players however is knowing which mobs to grind and where to find them.

Thats just a brief overview of how to get started as a horde in WoW. For further information from a good guide o to Joanas Leveling Guide.　

 

 

The way that you level up in WoW will depend on the type of character that you are playing as well as the side you choose, Alliance or Horde. In this wow leveling article, we’re going to take a look at how to take your Human character from level 1 to 30 in the Alliance. Although these tips may work for other races, you may need to have different information for some of the quests. Another good way to level up is through The Ultimate WOW Guide

 

Once you’ve set up your game and you’re on level one, you’re ready to get started. Elwynn Forest in the North Shire Glade is the first place you’ll begin. It’s a good idea to familiarize yourself a little with the area first. You’ll now notice some wolves running around Kill the wolves and keep at it until you notice that you’ve reached level three.

Now that you’re at level three, it’s a good time to repair any damage and equip yourself with new armor. This is to be more than handy later on. You are ready to go on your first actual quest. It’s an idea to select the quest: A Threat Within, and then its follow-up Kobold Camp Cleanup. After you’ve completed these, Eagen Peltskinner and Wolves Across the Border are the next two quests you’ll be ready to take on.

To get to level four, you may need to grind some wolves until you have picked up 8 Though Wolf Meat items. Grind Kobold’s Vermins to assist you in getting to level four. Once you’re there turn in your quests and take the next one. The best way to quickly level up to five, grind the Kobold Workers in the area.

By completing the next seven quests you get, you’ll be advanced to level seven. These quests are all easy and should not take more than a few hours at the very most to finish. It’s a good idea to grind whenever you can to help you move up even quicker.

Level seven to Thirty can be reached following an straightforward process. Take all the quests that are offered to you and turn them in to get the follow-ups. You can also grind to help your score increase and to earn more experience points. However, you’re going to need to get some specific items if you want to level up quickly. 　

Items You Absolutely Must Have:

Although it’s very simple to get to this point, there are a few items that you will absolutely need to have to keep advancing quickly. Here’s what you need and where to find them:
