Hello I am new to wow and currently level 27! Really enjoying my experience just wanting some info/help…
Firstly just wanting to know if the realm I am in is a good one, yes I know a little to late to be asking this but might as well know!
Also I am currently questing - now in Ashenvale (Which I may say is amazing!) is this the best thing to do? Was planning on levelling in different zones with the odd dungeon as I do enjoy questing and exploring but also find it fun to play with other player in WOW!
Must say so far met some nice people who have been very helpful! Looks like this community is great!
Draenor is a good horde realm, probably one of the biggest. As to what you should do, I’m not sure, you have to pick from dungeons or questing, although that doesn’t mean you can’t do a mix of both (that’s what I do). If you’re worried about efficiency, well, let me just tell you that it doesn’t really matter, as long as you’re having fun it’s all good. Questing and dungeons are both very viable ways to level up.
You chose one of the best (and the biggest Horde server), you’ll be alright
Level as you enjoy! I totally recommend the way you are leveling, questing is the most immersive way.
As for dungeons you can either queue for them as frequent as you want, or if you don’t want to miss out too much on the world questing content as you’d rather do that then you can just run the dungeon that you have a quest for by the end of a zone.
As for what you should do for leveling up, Just go to every zone you can. Experience the quests. Do some dungeons too (With dungeon finder), just so you could get the hang of some group stuff. It’s gonna be easy. Just follow the other teammates and you should do fine. go as shadow priest and not healer for your first couple of tries.
For my first levelup, which actually was this mage i’m currently posting with, I went to all the zones. I’ve been to northrend, outland, kalimdor, eastern kingdoms, pandaria, everywhere. I mostly leveled up with questing and I gotta say it was a good experience for my first try. Once you get to know things a bit more, you’ll figure out the best way to level up for the next times.
Just view the game as an adventure for the time being. When you hit max level download some addons, look at some guides if you have questions and learn what RIO is cause love it or hate it it’s gonna dictate how many invites you will be getting.
When I level a Horde character I usually stay in Kalimdor, I just find those zone more Horde-immersive (expecially the central ones like Barrens, Stonetalon).
Ahoy, and welcome to Azeroth! As others have mentioned, Draenor is a good realm to be on with lots of people. The cool thing is, if you happen to meet some friends on different realms, like through the forums or other communities, WoW has cross-realm play when you group with them so you can always play with your friends. With the party sync feature this has become easier than ever.
For levelling, yeah, I think just adventuring is a good way to go. Take in the scenery, learn more about the characters and story. Doing a few dungeons in between wouldn’t hurt though. It’s a great way to meet new people and get some decent gear upgrades.
Happy exploring.
Welcome to WoW and good decision on choosing the best faction too
(Sorry Alliance peeps )
Agreeing with others - quest, do some dungeons, explore, maybe try a BG or too (might be a bit rough, but worth it).
Very glad to hear that you met nice people, be wary not everyone is (just like life), but anyone who isn’t nice has the problem and not you (should you experience it).
Ashenvale is gorgeous and one of may favourite zones, but there are many other incredible zones and I hope you enjoy these too when you play through them.
Well thanks everyone ! Been a busy week In my real Life lol so haven’t played as much as I wanted but going to hammer it to night haha currently in the hinterlands which looks exciting and appreciate the comments ! Hope to cross path with yous all at some point in the world of Warcraft
