No gather leveling guide?

[Redbeard]

I say this is every thread like this.

Collection quests are part of the game, if I were you I would attempt to change your attitude about them rather than changing your tactics.

Just treat them as focused grinding, try to get in a groove, youll be alright.

Or not, and youll find leveling a bit more miserable.

Definitely! They're easy, especially if you have it set up to let all your slaves loot without switching windows (and you should have that) - 5x as long as doing it solo, but you get 5x as much xp, loot and gold.

If you can, listen to some music, have a movie on or something - it's a great way to play and easy to do.

I'm going to share with everyone the ultimate "no collection quest" leveling guide. It's a VERY guarded secret, so please. don't share this with anyone else.


Step 1: Find a mob you can kill easily, kill it, loot it.
Step 2: Repeat Step 1.

You'll be 80 in no time.

General tips,
If drops and gather items act as a reagent, only one toon has to collect it. that is if the quest log dont list the items, or the items are used to summon a NPC or open a portal, not every toon has to collect it. Examples, Its Abominable, one toon can collect the part and the party gets the kill credit. Example, the Argent tournament dailys where you have to collect flowers to summon a NPC for a weapon.

Party wide drops. There are alot drops that the whole party can can loot. the Argent Daily to pick up the ember for the frozen lake, is a party wide drop.

100% drop rate. There are some world drop quest that is 100%, I don't remember which one. There is one or 2 in Ice Crown. Mostly they are in dungeons and starting areas.

Base on the above I realize long ago that there aren't that many hardcore drop and gathering quest. I think Blizzard increase drop rates since WoW first came out.

Yes I have Interact with target set up and its great I leveled 5 skinning 1-450 in a day So looting is easy and your right easy kills. The cog gathers are a pain and when the drop rate is low or the cogs or drop rate is few and far between I feel ilke killing myself. (there is some lame egg quest in GunDrak that was the worst and troll patrol UGH)

Yes TV on Lost, American Idol or whatever going on. I just though that someone might have documanted a no gather leveling guide since there are so many lvling guides out there.

Thanks for all the sugestions

If my TV was on American idol I'd want to kill myself as well.


Serious Advice:

Don't try to level to 80 in 1 day, I know, it's unpossible!, but you have to stop thinking that way. Don't worry about getting to 80. Set very small easily obtainable goals for yourself. When I'm leveling, I focus on getting the zone achievement for northrend / outland. This lets me set rather small milestones to work towards, when you think of all the collection quests to 80, it's very daunting and /wrist worthy. When you take it a zone at a time, it's much easier to think about / get into a grinding groove.
