Tips For Power Leveling In World Of Warcraft

Power leveling your way through World of Warcraft is the number one topic for debate with numerous premium guides and add-ons available to automate the process. Before committing to a certain solo questing leveling strategy it's always wise to know the different strategies them-selves!

This article will detail some of the most common techniques for power leveling in World of Warcraft u.sing the traditional solo questing and grinding techniques

Solo Questing

Solo questing is the most common technique for leveling in World of Warcraft as completing and returning quests is an integral part of the game. Quest givers can be found all throughout Azeroth and are represented by the yeloo9w exclamation mark on your map.

To successfully power level using quests you'll want to take a few things into consideration!

Tips For Solo Questing in WoW

• Always know the objective of the quest, and plan ahead to ensure you have all necessary items to complete the quest.
• Always accept quests from quest givers unless the quest offers little - no benefit.
• Always plan your route! Planning your questing routes is a must, if you're travelling through an area to a quest and there's another quest available on route or just slightly off route, then it makes sense to complete the quest there and then.
• Always try to avoid enemy contact on route to a quest, especially if the enemy is of a much lower level as they reward little XP.
• Try to only kill mobs with equal level or higher, although this can't always be adhered to, it's worth bearing in mind!
• Setting up your short keys in World of Warcraft is not only great for leveling faster but an absolute must, if you haven't set any shortcut keys yet, then stop reading this article and make a start :)

Grinding In WoW

What does grinding mean?

Many actually get this wrong! Grinding is the means to do something over and over again!

Many assume that grinding just means to kill lots of enemies, but any task that is repetitive and is done with the purpose of earning XP and items is known as grinding.

Grinding the mobs however is a commonplace strategy in World of Warcraft and although not as effective as it used to be it still racks up some nice XP and helps with leveling.

Grinding the mobs can be a weary and boring strategy for leveling in WoW and if not followed correctly one can waste a lot of time! To grind efficiently you need to keep one thing in mind and that is how much XP is being gained.

Sounds obvious I know, but many just go around hacking down mobs without fully benefiting from the XP on offer. To grind efficiently you're going to want to kill only enemies or mob of equal or higher level as they reward much more XP. I wouldn't go for mobs that are more than three levels below me because they don't reward enough XP.

Of course if you're solo questing to level your way through WoW and embark on a quest where the enemies are of lower level then kill them anyway but choose wisely when grinding in-between quests.

It's also worth noting that the longer you're active in WoW per session, the less XP you're rewarded for killing enemies so you want to take out the higher level mobs and participate in the higher level quests each time you first log into WoW to fully benefit from the XP available.
