Now, of course, changes to the endgame and an increased level cap mean that you’ll want to get to level 80 as quickly as possible before the expansion comes out – probably in the fall of 2010. Even though there is no release date yet, you don’t want to be caught off guard. You need to get to 80 well ahead of time so that you can start accumulating the gear you’ll need to play the expansion.

Here are some good social guidelines to follow whenever you play WoW:

Speak well

Use completely sentences and spell words correctly. Unless you’re with people you know well, don’t use “txt-speak” when you type. Most importantly: don’t use curse words. You never know if you’re playing against a 10-year-old whose mother is sitting beside him ready to report you to the Game Masters.

Learn WoW’s terminology

Start with our article on WoW abbreviations. Don’t be afraid to ask people what they mean; most people are quite nice and are flattered when they are asked for advice. (If someone calls you a noob/nub, just turn and walk away. They are not going to be nice to you.)

Don’t yell

If you type “/yell” in chat, whatever you type after that will be broadcast across the entire area where you are. It’s really annoying. People will even put you on Ignore if you continue to do it. Know that there are more appropriate ways to get your message to the right people. If you want to sell something, use Trade Chat. If you want to join a group, use /LFG. If you want to ask for quest help, just use “/say” near any town’s bank.

Don’t leave people in the lurch

If you join a group to run a dungeon, make sure you have 1 – 1.5 hours to devote to finishing it. Otherwise, at the very beginning, let the group know you need to leave early. It’s extremely rude to leave an instance in the middle. You leave everyone in the lurch and they will probably wipe (all die) without you.

Roll “Need” only on items that are upgrades

If you’re in a group, make sure you discuss how loot will be rolled on before you get to an instance boss. Typical rules are that everyone can roll on green items, but blue items should be “Needed” only by those who can benefit from them. (For example, a warrior should roll Greed on a blue-level cloth robe, but the Mage and Priest can roll Need.) Doing otherwise will get you branded as a “ninja” and it will be very hard to make friends that way.

I hope this list has helped you out a bit. I’ve got tons more of these tips coming up on this blog in future posts. I’ve also written up my story of getting to level 76 in just a few days of game time, which might help you out too.

As unbelievable as it sounds, a Warrior managed to get from level 1 to level 80 without dying once. That’s an incredible feat! Apparently this wasn’t her first character, so she was able to use her main to buy some nifty items that helped get her out of some scrapes. Some bloggers have even taken up the challenge to try it themselves.

However, there was a catch. She didn’t actually avoid death while leveling. Instead, when she died, she had to delete her character and then reactivate it to reset the tracking on number of deaths (which you can view on your Statistics tab in-game).

Technically, she didn’t cheat according to the Terms of Service. But it sure sounds like a pain in the neck to get what turns out to be a dubious accomplishment. I mean, if you have to find loopholes, you didn’t really accomplish anything, did you? I’d much rather level legitimately and have fun while doing it.

Tip 1: Visit all three starting zones for your faction

If you’re Alliance, do all the quests in Dun Morogh, Azuremyst Isle, Teldrassil, and Elwynn Forest. If you’re Horde, make sure you pick up all the quests in Mulgore, Tirisfal Glades, Eversong Woods, and Durotar. You’ll get to level 5 quickly by doing the quests in your race’s start-up area. But before heading out to higher level areas, make the trek to the other two lowbie zones and do all their quests too. You get almost as much XP and the quests go much faster and easier because you’re stronger than the mobs.

Tip 2: Don’t do group quests

Just because a quest is there doesn’t mean you have to do it. Especially group quests. It takes time to round up people or wait for a group to form so you can go tackle Hogger. You can get a lot of other quests done in the time that you’d otherwise be waiting on other people which easily equals the same XP . Of course, if a group falls in your lap, don’t hesitate to jump in.

Tip 3: Kill mobs (and do quests) that are 2-3 levels below you

The XP difference between killing green-level mobs vs. yellow- or orange-level mobs is negligible. On top of that, you can kill many more green-level mobs during the same time period and with much more ease. There’s also less chance that accidentally pulling too many mobs will kill you when they are lower in level.

I found these things out — and a lot more cool stuff — when I tried this guide. I even wrote a special page that tells you how I did it, if you want to know more.

It’s conceivable that people who like to play Druids may now want to roll one on the opposite faction if they like the new forms well enough. However, switching from Alliance to Horde or vice versa is tricky stuff if you’ve primarily played only one side. The starting areas are completely different. The higher-level areas may have similar quest types but completely different quest givers and, what’s more, unfamiliar flight paths.

I found it extremely confusing once I got to Stranglethorn Vale as Alliance after leveling my main on Horde. I kept heading to the wrong camps and getting killed! Finally, I wised up with a new approach and things went more smoothly.

Another common problem is trying to tackle a quest that’s too hard for your character’s level. Often a quest-giver will allow you to have access to a quest that’s 3 or 4 levels above you and if you try to tackle these solo, you’re in for a lot of frustrating corpse runs.

These are very common problems and I guarantee you that everyone who plays WoW has had to overcome them one way or another. With World of Warcraft leveling, it can take years to garner enough experience to know which quests to do in what order, and which quests can be done concurrently. Either that, or you can get yourself a little help!

1. Get a bigger bag.
Nothing is more frustrating then when you are about to leave for a quest or when you find yourself far away from town discovering that your bag is full. So as soon as you get a chance make sure you get a bigger bag this really helps cut down on the amount of trips back to town just to empty out your bags.

2. Consider add-ons that will save you time.
Some of the best add-ons available include the carbonite quest, auctioneer and my favorite auto profit. Auto profit is very useful as it sells the items which you would have classified as gray junk to the vendor and it does all this in just one click. This is extremely useful, as it saves a ton of time, which can then be spent leveling. The carbonite quest works more or less like a quest helper with better mini maps and a really good quest tracker.

3. Get your mount as fast as you can.
It is important to remember that traveling on a mount increases your travel speed thus cutting down on wasted travel time. So even for those players in the higher level zones’, upgrading your mount is just as effective for over over level 60 players as getting your first mount was at level 40

Of course there is a lot more World of Warcraft leveling tips but there just isn’t the time and space to cover all those in just one article.
