For a lot of people, myself included, 60-70 is one of the most enjoyable leveling ranges just because we loved that expansion and there is a lot of nostalgia. It is not necessarily because of ease of leveling. I actually despise all of 80-90 leveling for the same reason.

I loved WotLK and I fuckin despise leveling in Northrend, nostalgia notwithstanding. Seriously, I never want to step foot in Northrend again if I can help it.

I liked vanilla the most, and enjoy leveling there. I saw WAY too much of BC to be able to care anymore about that expansion. Apart from the obvious part where opinions might vastly differ, and that "i like the expansion tho" is kinda no explanation why the first expansion takes 10 times longer than the last 10 levels through 2 (incl. the most recent) expansions.

edit: just had a brief check, that's actually even dumber than i thought it would be. I briefly logged onto my 85 shaman, to check how much XP he needs to lvl 86, and that would be 517.000. My mage from level 68 to 69 needs 288.000 already. On 85, every quest turned in gives you roughly 2,5% of your level, on 68 it's roughly 0.6%. No wonder that it takes ages.

edit 2: i lied, hm. It's actually less than 0.6%, a turned in quest gives you 12k/288k. More like 0.4%.

I still remember all the bitching in TBC about how vanilla was way better and now it's the best expansion apparently.

It's the nostalgia-goggles though.

In reality, vanilla is the best.

BC is by far the worst, since like 87% of people lvling there are deafknights. At least, were.

edit: obviously it's just my opinion. But i really miss 40s.

Dk's didn't exist in BC....anyway, by modern standards, let's be honest, but lots of things about the game have improved. Specs being viable, questing being viable instead of fucking farming mobs for days, pvp not being a horrible painful grind...

Oh nvm, i thought you meant that during TBC everyone switched to levelling a DK (which kind of did happen in early wotlk)

Yeah, that's the reason why i hate WotLK, because it introduced them - at a time where i was playing restodruid. And they kinda made restodruids completely useless (old plague strike, still can't get behind it how a designteam has to work for them to wave it through in that form).

The same way a design team made the 100's of stupid choices they did with the class remakes for WOD :p

Well to be fair, as retarded as the class-changes are (i still stand firm behind that opinion), i yet have to see a skill or something that renders another spec completely useless. It wasn't even a balancing issue back in the day, it was the fact that a resto had to heal via HoTs (the strong instants weren't there yet) - and another class removed all of them with a spamable skill. That one skill in it's original form basically made another class (spec, rather) completely unplayable. Not because it was hard to play around it (like warris in arenas could/can play around frostmages), but because you simply could not play around it. It's not like DKs didn't do damage either, they hitted harder than any other meleeclass.

Sorry for the rant, but honestly, that one for me takes the cake for the most retarded decision the designteam ever did. Up to today that pisses me off kinda :D

edit: and i know that priests/shamans could dispel HoTs as well, but they procced the endheal of Lifebloom, plague strike didn't. It just removed everything, and on top of that, it was part of their "damagerotation" anyway, so they didn't even have to make a concious decision to remove stuff "now", it just happened.

Most people that played actively in TBC say they hate leveling in 60-70 because they're just so sick of it now, but for me it's the opposite. I was most active in TBC and 60-70 is still my favorite stretch these days, probably due in small part to the nostalgia, but mostly because it's the only place really where you can still have 12-15 active quests at a time and do massive turn-ins. It's my preferred way of questing, and is insanely fast these days with heirlooms. HFP, first half-ish of Zangarmarsh, and then Nagrand. Super fast and easy 60-70, with all three zones offering 10+ quests active at all times basically.

In every other expansion+vanilla*, I have zones I love and zones I hate, so it all smears out a bit. TBC content is still reliably entertaining, if not for the change of pace alone after doing the "clumpy"/regionalized end of Azeroth.

*sans Pandaria, which I universally hate just for it's monotony and drabness. I actually didn't hate MoP (expansion) as much as a lot of people seemed to; I thought it introduced a lot of good new ideas and quality of life stuff that will be great moving forward. I just disliked Pandaria itself quite a bit.

Not true anymore. By experience, just started blades edge now - went through all quests in nagrand (like an hour ago) and barely reached 68 (started at 66). Full heirlooms.

edit: apart from that, you're right. I'm sick of TBC because i've literally seen everything there. Millions of times. There's where things differ though: i like the small questhubs, 5 quests, kill stuff, collect things, turn in quests, next 5 please. My prefered way of questing. Most likely that's part of my aversion for TBC too.

Loved the whole first Pandaria Zone, epic scenery etc... Then you kinda capped out after doing half of another zone... and that was it. Then the story kept going on about these spirits I had never met somehow being important, supposedly already knowing me... And this was right after launch, what the hell?

Some stories were cool in pandaria, others kinda meh. Jade forest was cool, and so was fighting along with the shado-pan and chasing the sha of anger in townlong steppes. The klaxxi stuff in dread wastes is cool too. Valley of the four winds, krasarang and parts of kun lai summit where meh tho. Overall though the place really looks pretty.

My favourite quest chain is still the Thorim one in storm peaks though.

edit: well not two hours straight, but under three hours

If you can reliabily queue up for dungeons, do it. It is much faster imo to level up that way at those levels.

ViperPL, do you mean post patch ? Because XP changed a lot.


I never did TBC levels post 6.0 so don't know if it changed, but before the patch it was very fast, unlike 85-90, which took forever. Now, after 6.0 I only did 85-90 and it was a breez, but no idea about Outland.

It basically is the other way around now. 85-90 is almost too fast, and 65-70 takes waay too long now.
