A few answers for u,
1. yes, damn groups that kill solo guys on pvp server, but that’s the game.
2. Warriors are easy to level up to lvl35-40, then, they always get to health =60% on fights, so need to drink or bandage, then loose rage, then slow down the leveling. it sucks. I found out that protect spec is better because u can kill 3 mobs at the time no problem, but cant use charge efficiently. Warriors get better around lvl55.
3. do not level priest as holy. Almost twice as long, seriously. Go shadow, u’ll never run out of mana. And u can still heal dungeons, look at the tanks, they are probably not real tanking spec either.
4. fastest leveling for mage is AoE kill, if u can team up with a healer (druid, pally, shaman), it’s fun. U just jump around. who cares if u have to drink when u just killed 10 mobs in 30 sec. For soloing, it’s tougher to AoE, but look at the video that was posted here a few weeks ago.

hope it helps.

Actually, it’s only +29 levels. Your character starts at lvl 1, not lvl 0. As such you will grant a bonus lvl at every odd level thereafter, so 1 at 3, 2 at 5, 3 at 7, etc. So this works out to be 29 at 59.

ah okay, my bad, I misread it. They need to be more specific, in the faq on it, it only says:

“For every two levels recruit characters earn, one “grantable” level is gained. Recruit characters may then grant these levels to lower level veteran characters.”

Its still MASSIVLY faster, have 2 friends i power leveled through quest and instance, about 2-3 days played to 60, stupidly fast =/ takes just a few days, or up to 5 if they mess about to get them to 60.

steve, after the veteran’s account is 60, the level granting stops rolling in. thats 30 granted levels

hello my record from 1-70 was 3 days 4 hours and 28 minutes. the method i used did not involve questing from level 20 to level 60. i went about this by using my friends lvl 80 ret paladin and running myself through SM from lvl 20-40, then zul’farrak from 40-45 or 47ish and then moving into stratholme from that level until level 55 when i then hit hellfire ramparts until level 60. this way of leveling was very fast and i did make a fair bit of gold in the process to lvl 60, approx 1100 gold from vendor trash and boe blue items. i did this in a little over a week. just a suggestion if anyone has access to a paladin or a deathknight on a different account ^^

IIRC, you can earn level grants beyond 60, you just cant use them to level a character beyond 60. Therefore, there are 40 level grants you get for each character you level.

I may be wrong, though.

Your way off on the recruit a friend program, first off it is 300% experience, for both characters if they are within 5 levels and 100 yards of each other, and the “Recruit” gets 1 level to grant for every 2 levels gained while linked to the veteran account, so a max of level 30 for another veteran character. Granted levels can not be used beyond 60 either.

rested experience – while logged off or in cities, you earn a rest state which increases experience gained from monsters by 100% until you run out of rested state. eight hours of being in a city/inn = 1 bubble of your experience bar as rested.
