Ever since Blizzard announced Classic Wrath, we've known that getting to level 80 as soon as possible is on everyone's mind. Especially after the announcement of Wrath Classic's new server. Many current players also find it more fun to start over on these servers and level up their characters or even build Alts in preparation for the WotLK classic. These tips will help you prepare for the classic Wrath of the Lich King. One thing to note before we dive into is that when you reach level 80, all mountain acceleration items and riding crops will no longer work. So as you level up, you need to earn a lot of WotLK Classic coins and speed up your way to the highest level.
Start with the right class
While everyone has their own preferences and each class has its pros and cons, they do have advantages over each other depending on your style. Starting with World of Warcraft Classic, your character's class determines everything, from your skills, talents, gear you wear to the qualities you seek. Entering the Wrath Classic, Blizzard made some confusion about talent. Some talents have been improved, and some classes have obvious new talents, which will help to level up easily. You can choose from a variety of classes, including some easy leveling classes, the best DPS classes, and the best classes for PvE and PvP in WotLK Classic. So the choice you make matters.
Druids happen to be a great class because they have everything and can take on three key roles: healer, tank, and DPS. Not only that, but they also have a ranged DPS spec and a melee DPS spec. It's a great class for beginners due to its strong defense, DPS, and healing abilities. It's also the most mobile class due to shapeshifting, which makes the Druid faster when leveling up. There are other classes that are easy to level up, such as Paladins, Hunters, and Mage with amazing healing abilities, because of their high DPS specs.
Equip and enchant them
Getting good gear as soon as possible is also desirable. You want to do as many raids and hero dungeons as possible to get better gear because you'll level up faster. You also need to enchant your gear to increase your power. You can buy WotLK Classic Gold and head to the auction to get some nice gear for most specs and categories.
Use a good leveling strategy
The best thing to do is to focus on talents that lower skill/spell cost and increase damage to level up faster. This way you can spend less time killing monsters and bosses, helping you kill more people over a longer period of time before taking a break. For example, if you choose a healing class like Paladin or Priest, you don't have to spend talents on the healing tree, even if you plan to become a healer when you reach level 80. Having the healing talent won't help you very much in leveling during solo missions in the wild.
Note that around level 70, you can switch to a full healing specialization if you want to join a team (in the case of a fighter or death knight). So it makes sense to not focus on talents that won't help you kill mobs faster and thus level up faster.
Ask in advance
When leveling, you need to pre-request to maximize efficiency. Prequesting is when you take quests from NPCs, complete them and store them in your quest log, so you can turn them in as soon as the expansion goes live for a ton of experience. Players can only store 25 missions, but can complete as many as they want.
Get the right career
As with Wrath Classic, leveling and careers go hand in hand. As you level up, the stats of different classes will increase. However, you need to first decide what career you want to pursue and make sure that if you are running alt, you are ready for your main account.
For new players, it is important to know that engineering is considered the most useful profession. Engineers will have access to a lot of stuff that will make them decent in both PvE and PvP. For example, they have an amazing glove enchantment that increases your haste rating with a very low cooldown, belt of shards, cloak parachutes, rocket boots, etc. In fact, they have a lot of useful materials that can save you a lot of time when leveling. They are the best reason.
That's not to say other courses are less important. For example, jewelry artisans and miners are essential to gold making, that is, if you don't want to buy WotLK Classic gold. Additionally, there will be a new class called Glyphs that will allow you to craft Glyphs to enhance your gameplay, alter spells, reduce cooldowns, and more, which will increase demand for herbs. So it's definitely wise to have a herbalist character, as the herbalist will make a lot of money in WotLK canon.
