I really don't want to pull the entire ZF graveyard and wiping yet another time because of a few overconfident group members. I just want to run a regular dungeon and have a good time doing so.
This is especially confusing because Jokerxd showed us the potential for solo aoe grinding as a mage. I mentioned during the pre launch that this had the potential to be the fastest route to 60 IF someone could consistently violate layering, and Joker was able to do exactly that. If I were leveling a mage, I would be taking advantage of layering while it still exists.
Joker managed to get ahead of the zerg and had the zones entirely to himself. Solo AoE as a mage now is ok but nowhere near the xp/hour he was getting even if you jump layers.
The journey continues in Arathi Highlands.
I am level 34 and about to run SM all weekend!
Over and over again! And farm silk to get my tailoring as high as i can!
Next I plan on going to Desolace then Hinterlands!
Trying to avoid Stranglethorn but might not be able to...
Slowly but surly I will get 40 and my mount.
Then I will run off into the sunset!
Once I get to 50 I might start grinding mobs for drops like the Robes of Winter Night pattern
Mats for tailoring and and my epic mount quest and do dungeons in between grinding!
If i dont get lucky with drops then hopefully i farm enough gold from grinding away to buy it

Its funny that you mention that, because we had two guys in our guild follow his vod and copy what he was doing 1 week later, and they had VERY good results. Even though they were with the pack, they were easily able to get down to 4.5-5 days played by using some layering stacked with his route. One of them was my brother on his alt.
Now 4.5-5 days is obviously no where near Jokers pace, but it was still a pretty good time.
I am level 51 currently going slow, but I do not want to rush it... Kind of sad many of my guildmates is playing at level 60 doing raids and earning lots of DKP.
I'll chime in here, haven't made a post yet :)
Druid currently level 47, more than halfway to 48. Recently identified https://classic.wowhead.com/quest=1172/the-brood-of-onyxia in Dustwallow Marsh & just finished off STV by https://classic.wowhead.com/quest=592/saving-yenniku . The https://classic.wowhead.com/npc=7572/fallen-hero-of-the-horde has sent me on some errands already, but before I can go free the https://classic.wowhead.com/npc=7668/servant-of-razelikh I still have a way to go.
Asking myself whether I did the right thing by getting the gnomish racing team drunk on https://classic.wowhead.com/item=5806/fools-stout :S
Starting questing in Tanaris now :) Can't wait to get my fingers on some https://classic.wowhead.com/item=8529/noggenfogger-elixir :D
Profs are going great, with skinning, fishing and cooking already maxed out & leatherworking at 235.
Had enough gold for my mount at 44 i believe, but as was stated before, Travel Form rocks, so that wasn't a big deal, I hardly use the mount.
The next destination in terms of Dungeons will be Maraudon, after having just completed my full 7-Quest run through Zul'Farrak. Getting the https://classic.wowhead.com/item=9240/mallet-of-zulfarrak was an adventure to behold at level 46 :)
That's all for now
/moo

I know that feel man. Sucks being a slow leveler :lol:

Meh, while I have also been leveling slow - my enjoyment level is high :wink:
Most predictions I see is that Phase 2 wont be until early next year, which gives everyone time to hit 60 and do dungeons/raids before the honor system and Dire Maul is introduced. Kazzak is going to be very interesting to see also..... Going to be some crazy World PvP situations.

I'm enjoying the journey as well m8.
Like last night when I camped every horde player that tried to gank me along the coasts of STV. I'm finding that water form is my get away from horde button. A bunch of times I'd be minding my own business and some warrior would charge up and try to gank, I'd jump into the ocean and swim away. Then I'd pop stealth and track straight back and attack as soon as they'd engage a mob and be at half health. The great thing about stealth is that since I can target them, I can let them know that I'm breathing down their back as often as I want. Lots of /taunt spam followed by attacking them from behind every time the guy's health got low. I think I was averaging like a 5:1 kill to death ratio and I didn't start any of it, lol.
There was a warrior and priest combo that tried to gank me, but they couldn't close the deal and away I swam. They went on to fight packs of pirates along the coast so I had plenty of opportunities to wait stealthed 15 feet away, jump in and wipe them half-way through a pull. Between ganks, I would also occasionally drag my stealth ass across the priest's face while it was drinking just to make him see me lurking, pop up, waste his water, call his warrior friend over to pop bloodrage, all while I'd creep back to a shrub and keep /taunting, lol. It was fun watching them run around in circles trying to find me. And since the ocean was right there, any time I'd fail a gank attempt I'd just jump into the water and get away, stealth back, and come back for more a minute later :lol:
God I love this game. Fairbanks is heavily skewed horde, so I'm getting jumped out there left and right. But I'm winning more encounters than I'm losing since I'm willing to stealth and camp.

I sure hope so. I'm probably at least 3-4 weeks out from level 60 at this pace. I should be on target for 47 or 48 by the end of this weekend. I'd like to be able to continue at this pace and get in on the MC action before everybody moves on.
I'd imagine that I am one of the luckier players in WoW...

Got to say... For only a month into Classic and seeing a binding and now an eye we've either been on a lucky streak (probable) or Classic drop rates are higher than private.
I’m sure you probably meant the drop rates for those specifically but this reminds me of something I’ve experienced a lot of so far in classic— no drops. Things that were pretty damn efficient gold targets in the 30-40 range (Swamp Jaguars etc and beasts in general) are pretty lack luster thanks to seemingly 1/2 drops having absolutely nothing.

what nasty ass shit did you have to do to have this level of luck?! Hahahha

Hahah, you're my Alliance doppelganger! I spent some of last night along the coast of STV - including soloing the elite crocolisks for the quest. While I was in bear form dragging/killing the croc back toward Grom'gol for safety, a paladin tried to jump me. I was quite close to town at this point so I just shuffled back and the guards finished off the last 10% of the croc and proceeded to chase the paladin off into the water.
Then, I jumped into the water, aquatic form swam nice and deep so he couldn't see/notice me and followed him right out to the island with the elementals. He started a fight with an elemental, so I jumped him and killed him then finished his mob off as payback. He spirit rezzed. Druid is so damn mobile it's great for world PvP. We certainly will have trouble with warlocks and probably good shadow priests, but we can definitely hold our own against most classes if we utilise our forms correctly. It's definitely been great fun, got to 39 last night and I am about to head to badlands/dustwallow marsh to start those areas before returning to STV for the higher stuff.
Damn you guys are inspiring me to level a druid again.
It's pretty great because of the escape power that we have. Combine our power to get away with our stealth and bursty DPS coming out of stealth and we have natural cheap shot camping built right into the class. Everybody says that druids are good at a bunch of stuff, but not the best at anything. I think I found the exception - we're the best at avoiding ganks and then retaliating by popping out of stealth behind the guy tried to gank 5 minutes ago while he's at 25% fighting a couple of mobs :lol:
And finally, the day has come.
https://classic.wowhead.com/item=9418/stoneslayer carry me all the way to MC lol
Made it to the mid 40s on my Human Warrior. Then I woke up one day and felt a weird urge to try a Horde character, as I have always played Alliance even back in 2005.
Level 30 now on my Troll Priest and I am totally hooked. A little bit of a setback on the road to hitting 60, but Classic is all about enjoying the journey so I am not upset about it. :)

Oof, mid 40's on a warrior is no joke.
But you're on the right side now so there is that.
Druid is 43
Shaman is 33
