    WoW Classic - Level 1- 60 World Record in 21Hr 16Mins | Power Leveling

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_c...ature=emb_logo

    1-8 tagging with out-of-party hunter pets killing
    8-20 one pull RFC
    20-40 one pull SM boosting
    40-54 one pull Mara boosting
    54-60 one pull ZG boosting

    Note that he maximized rested exp at all times, so without being rested it'd be 2x as long.

    I always find these records to be quite ridiculous.

    It's like if we're all driving around in normal cars, and then someone posts about how the land-speed record was broken by a specially designed vehicle that is made out of cardboard (don't get it wet), the frame weighs in at 12 lbs., and it's equipped with two jet engines for a total of 1600 horsepower. At the same time, Earth is furthest from the sun to ensure its gravitational pull on the planet is the lowest it can be, reaching the speed requires a 4-mile straightaway that is 22° north along the Prime Meridian for pristine atmospheric results, and Venus has to be in retrograde.

    Like... uh, okay. Cool.

    EDIT: Don't get me wrong, it's impressive that someone went through the effort to achieve that, but it's generally outside of the realm of any normal user/player.

    Sure, I wouldn't expect that anyone would follow him trying to emulate exactly what he did - as you point out that's not realistic, and I pointed out that he was fully rested the whole time which also isn't the way that any normal person plays.

    But I think pieces may be applicable to the MB community and builds off a lot of what was debated earlier in this thread.


    Until someone shows otherwise, I'd take his videos as summarizing our current understanding of the fastest way to level a single alt and good indications of the quickest way to level up to 4/5 alts at a time. I imagine even once we get into TBC-Classic, people will be referring back to this thread to quickly level their new BELFs.

    Approach 2B (tagging mobs with a lowbie then killing them with an out-of-party hunter/lock pet) is the quickest way to level a single alt until you are high enough level to get into dungeons (8 for Horde, 10 for Alliance). He said that was 25min of /played - even if you double that to 50min due to lack of rested exp that's probably achievable by anyone here. Although this method doesn't directly apply to leveling a team of 4 or 5 as you'd be splitting the party exp, so there's still room to debate the quickest way to level multiple chars when pre-dungeon.

    Approach 1* (High level main boosts up to 4 alts a time in dungeons) is the quickest way to level 1-4 alts beginning as soon as you can get into any dungeon. *The "1-pull" method where your high level (optimally a specifically spec'd and geared mage) pulls every mob in the dungeon near to the entrance then AOE's them all down using known mob pathing mechanics is the quickest dungeon boosting method. This approach actually works best with 4 alts being boosted by the level 60, due to a formula we don't exactly understand, but is approximated by the average character level in the dungeon.

    The 1 part I's like to research more is figuring out the formula for splitting party exp when the party members are all of different levels. Exp seems to approximately be awarded based on the average character level in the party, so bringing in lower levels chars to keep the average low improves the overall exp gained.

    Because split group exp is terrible for us, i'd say stay away from mob grinding. Quests are our biggest source of exp since it doesnt split, so i'd say if anyone really cares about speed leveling teams, then to make a multiboxer specific questing guide similar to Joanna's, but obviously no collection quests ect, and to maybe use a set of warlock planted in specific quest hubs for faster travel. If someone made the effort to make a guide i bet a group of 5 wouldnt be so far off of soloing speed. The biggest issue would be traveling time imo.

    I have a new team i'm going to level Alliance side when i'm not so busy with retail, so i think i will make time to set up a questing guide like Joanna's for multiboxers. Hopefully it works out.
