As with each of the previous expansion packs there are different leveling strategies in Cataclysm. One of the most popular strategies is to pay very close attention to the way the different groups of quests are put together; you will find that you can accept several quests that are all done in a particular area. Rather than going out and completing one or two at a time which is a very slow way to go about leveling, complete as many as you can in a given area and then go turn them in.
You may have to make a couple of side trips along the way to grab the next stage quests, but Blizzard has conveniently placed many of the quest chains on top of each other to make it much faster and easier to level up without having to run all over the place. You should complete all of the quests in one zone before moving on. Be aware that as you level you may have to go back to an area that you were working in earlier. If a particular quest takes you way out of your way, leave it for later as you will probably be going out there to complete more quests as you go through the different quest chains.
If this sounds like too much work, you can always sit in one area and farm mobs that are at or just above your level. Known as grinding, this has always worked in each of the expansion packs and is one of the different Cataclysm leveling strategies. It is however a much slower way to level, the one thing you will get is plenty of drops that you can sell for gold along the way.
A good blend of questing and running the new dungeons such as Blackrock Caverns is considered to be the fastest way to level your character. Dungeons reward you with much higher XP rewards and taking out the bosses not only rewards you with maximum XP, but you will be able to start gearing up and earning the gold you are going to need when you go visit your trainers.
One last tip, you need to use your map for questing. Blizzard took Quest Helper's good idea and built it in several patches ago, now you can see where each of your quests is located allowing you to group them together for faster completion. You might be surprised at how fast your XP bar is going to move when you turn in a dozen or more quests at a time.
Leveling is not a quick process. It takes time and care to the little things. Learn how Dan has taken advantage of hot changes in Blizzard’s interface and dozens of little tweaks to reach the cap at record speed – visit www.WarcraftBlueprint.com for more details.
