Leveling from 1-60 Without Questing (Fast Method) (EU Guide)

[Deathyaw]

Hey all of OC, I havent contributed as much as id like to so here goes.
I decided to level a hunter and was boored of all the quests and dungeoning so i decided to try something else,
I had no idea this was going to work in my favor and with such great speed.
Now to the Guide, Enjoy!

Requirements:
2 Accounts or 1 nice friend.
A few Characters on different Realms.(Check Below for Guide)
NPCSCAN <-- ADDON

How fast will i take 1-60?
It all depends on the rare spawns and on how many are doing it.
I prefer to do it at Night time when not so many are online.
Also if you are RaF'd with someone while doing this you will level INSANELY fast.

So what are we going to do?
Blizzard recently added so that you gain lots of experience by killing rare monsters, about twice exp as you get from a quest.
So lets say you get 2k exp from a quest at lvl 20, you'll get about 4-5k exp from the rare monster, and imagine how much quicker you kill a rare monster instead of killing 20x monsters for a silly quest which you have already done to many times.

This guide will be for the Horde side might make Alliance aswell.
So lets start with making a few characters across some Realms on your other account(Not your main account).
Make a level 1 Horde on the following Realms;
Al'Akir
Argent Dawn
Alonsus
Earthen Ring
Genjuros
Hakkar
Eonar
Neptulon
Ahn'Qiraj
Auchindoun

Now that you have created a level 1 horde on all those realms with your other account, login to any of those realms and add your main accounts battle.net ID to your friendlist so that you can invite yourself later on.

Now start by scanning the leveling area you are on with your Main account on your main realm, (Might be hard to locate any rares on a high populated realm)
after you killed the rares on your server or if there werent any, login to your other account and invite your main account to a party.
You should get a message like this.


Now as soon as you accept the invitation you will be invited over to Cross realm on your "Low Populated realm" (one of those above as mentioned).
Go kill all the rares again and when you are done again, just login to another realm and do the same thing over and over.


1-10
Durator

Mulgore


10-20
Northern Barrens


20-25
Ashenvale (Very Quick)


25-30 (Very quick)
Stonetalon Mountains


30-35
Southern Barrens


35-40 (Very quick)
Dustwallow Marsh


40-45 (The thing with 40-45 is that there are not any perfect spots so you decide if you kill rares from 40-45 or quest, I would prefer questing those 5 levels or dungeons)
Eastern Plaguelands


45-50
Tanaris!


50-55 ( You might have to switch between Winterspring or Un'goro or do a few quests for these levels)
Winterspring/Un'goro



55-58(You can stay untill level 60 but why would you? you can go to Outland now!)
Silithus!



I hope i am not forgetting something! if i have i'll make sure to add it later on.

Yours,
Deathyaw!

You could also add that there is addons available to make it easier to find those rare spawns. I've used NPCscan myself, and it's a lightweight addon that runs in the background, but when you get in range of a rare mob you get a audible and visible warning, plus it adds a raid target to that mob so you can target and find it really easy.

very quick isn't an amount of time, I'm sorry I can't find it anywhere on the guide.

There you go, but an estimate without RAF bonus and Heirlooms would interesting to know, though!

Indeed, everything is very fast with RaF and heirlooms. And if you do use raf, I'm unsure about if the crossrealm killing would work. I'm not completely sure, but I think 2x lvl 1 from the same server trumphs 1x lvl 90 when deciding who's crossing over.

I've actually used this method a lot, and I can say that it's great during the middle of the night, but unless you actually have heirlooms and the rest of the gear necessary to actually kill the rares and surrounding mobs you'll find yourself wasting a lot of time. Actually running dungeons to get the gear you need rewards just as much xp.
The way I prefer to do it is having my other account with a lvl 90 and a 2seat flyer to fly around to find the mobs.

Another problem with this method is that after 2 kills you are out of rested xp, and that's a real dip in xp/hour.

On the other hand, hunting rares is a great pass-time when waiting for a dungeon queue to pop.

SilverDragon is also an option. Unlike NPC Scanner it will continue to alert you to the presence of mobs in the cache.

Yep this is true!

Don't really need RAF or a 2nd account then.. just do it once, and you have friends.. if you don't make some :P And this will not work when the do that virtual realm thing. All servers will be high pop servers...

Sorry but if you dont know what you are talking about maybe you shouldnt ?

[slyf3r]

to me it seems that you only get transfered to another realm if the inviting charakter is also in your area. might work in the starting areas but for winterspring?

It should work everywhere even in Pandaria, I have personally tried it and have gotten myself to cross realm every time.

He did know what he was talking about, i don't think you understood what he said.
First, he was saying that if you have any friends, you can just party with them instead on making a new account
Secondly, he was referring to the fact that Blizzard is making these virtual realms, "merging" realms together which will increase the population on low-pop realms, making rare farming harder.
