The struggle was real. I quit wow back then and didn’t return untill the lfg system came along.
You are not supposed to spam dungeons like in the previous leveling system.
Simply enjoy the story of one single expansion and take your time.

My only problem with leveling in warmode is Never there is anyone around to help me got ganked few times A lv 50 druid kept moonfiring me Warrior attacking me while i was fighting a mob and few more attackers I cant seem to chat in general chat of the zone I only got 1 rule with warmode I dont attack anyone unless they attack me I’m bad at pvp and i never hit first
Offer Mounts and Toys, as grindable rewards for Warmode, and ditch XP bonus… just saying.
If you want to PvP then you can’t hide on the comfort of an Alliance biased RP realm clocking up the benefits of the WM bonus with no risks. RP realms are not sharded they are essentailly only RPers from your own realm, at best you will only see others from other RP realms. People can be invited to AD by people playing on AD ofc.
Roll a character on a Normal realm and enable WM, you will be put into WM shards with players who are also WM on from any other Normal EU realm. Not everyone will engage in PvP at every given opportunity. Many just see it as a PvE bonus that has few risks.
Personally I do not want a return to the colossal waste of time you get in Classic forming groups and travelling to dungeons. It is better to quest than dungeon spam at present, although some have continued to do so.

Why would you want to PvP in a place where you as a lvl 11 can cross paths with a lvl 40 that will literally oneshot you?
What am i missing here?
You explain the leveling system is awful but your banging on about pvp, as far as i knew you couldnt level through wpvp?! and if that’s still the case, creating this thread makes no sense.

I like it, except that it kicks you out after hitting 50.
And folks constantly complained about faction imbalance, begging for there to be a spree of free transfers.
War mode solves that problem. You can quit gankfest pretty much whenever.
I tried leveling a priest a couple of days ago.
I HAVE NEVER seen WOD starting zone be that much full. I actually had difficulty finding mobs to kill for quests.

That has nothing to do with the new levelling system. It was like that before.
Now if you want tedious travels and what not: have I got good news for you! Classic is still a thing.

First step: level in wm on a normal server, u wont find much wpvp on AD which is heavily alliance heavy.
Why would we go back to travelling to dungeons 
Dude play classic if that’s what you want.
Garuntee far more players on retail would hate a change back to running to dungeons or slower levelling
Yeah and your on a RP realm. Ur cut off from every other server in the game as RP realm Warmode isn’t cross server

You wouldn’t find people heading to dungeons in WM anyway, not often. Warmode bonus applies to open world only. To turn on warmode and then decide to farm dungeons is contrary to the point.
Maybe TBC was a bad pick? The zones are huge and the levelling is slowest available. Your best bet for Wpvp is quicker zones where A and H have similar quest experiences / zones like legion and WoD beyond 1st zone.
I levelled my mage up on AD WM on and I encountered loads of horde during my trip to gorgrond. The bonus objective sites were constantly seeing skirmishes of ally and horde. It was fun!
Leveling is the best it’s ever been!
I’ve never encountered as many other players leveling as I did during chromie time in northrend.
This is definitely the way
I saw a ton of people in Hellfire Peninsula. I even saw something I haven’t seen in years: a Fel Reaver snuck up on someone and smashed them.
General chat then had several other people that saw it from a long distance talking about how funny it was to see the dangerous Fel Reavers back.
This was also with warmode off. You’ll see less people with WM on because people don’t care for it, people don’t care for getting ganked and what not. If you want to see people, turn WM off. If you want to gank people? Well, it’s all about the hunt.
and? whats your point? it still isnt balanced and alliance is outnumbered most of the time in warmode. those rewards didnt help at all, they need to go.
i never said that warmode doesnt solve a problem. i only said that the rewards need to go, not warmode itself.

15h? You can do it in 7h reliably if you preplan and know your route.
Leveling really isnt part of the core game anymore. In part because classes are designed to be ”less than” untill they get the borrowed power from current expansions level cap.
And just as with a raid tier, anything that isnt current patch, is completely trivialized by the current patch. Which leads to leveling being the same thing.
Also, with blizzard having added the leveling boost, they have thrown in the towel of any leveling experience that isnt from Expansion level cap to the next.
