5-Hour WotLK Powerleveling Route — Full Transcript & Summary

[00:00] Hi everyone, Gnaeve here. I've leveled so many characters on Warmane that I lost count. You'll learn some things at that time, so in this video I'll share my route, together with some tips to you guys, hoping that I can speed up your battling process.

[00:20] I'm sure that some people did it in less than 5 hours of playtime, but I just haven't seen anyone do it before. I'm also proud to say that I did it completely alone. I used more than one account, but I didn't have anyone's help.

[00:40] So when can this video be useful to you? Maybe you want to boost a friend, an alt or just sell the character for 30 coins on the website.

[00:52] Whatever it is, I hope I can help you. I usually quest naturally until I hit level 15. Making sure I equip my heirlooms and bags when I reach Goldshire.

[01:07] I'm sure this part can be quicker if someone helps you, but I just really enjoy the early the leveling, so I do it naturally. Luckily I come across some people at Hogger's

[01:20] phone, so we take him down pretty easily. I gravely run away from Benny Blanco after taking his watch, and I do one more quest after that to hit 15.

[01:43] At this point I was at about 45 minutes of playtime.

[01:58] Here I saw my heart stone was on cooldown, so I went and I got something to eat. Beware human.

[02:13] After I came back, a handsome, bold man offered to take me to a sex dungeon on his bike. How could I refuse? If you play Alliance on WarMain, you've been through this place.

[02:28] Probably 90% of all Alliance characters start with the dislocates, including young Gnez. Now, the most important thing while boosting summon is not pulling the mobs too close to

[02:43] them. I'm not sure why first exists, but when you're outside approximately a hundred yards, the XP gained is doubled. If you know why this exists, please type it in the comments.

[02:56] I breezed through the stockades going from 15 to 28 in 16 minutes. Just make sure to take the quest in front of the dungeon at level 22.

[03:14] This part took me up to an hour of playtime.

[03:26] Next we go to the Scarlet Monastery. Walking there can be a bitch, but luckily I have two DKs from my multiboxing days parked there.

[03:38] You can join my discord at the description and send me a message there if you need help with your summon The DKs are always there The fastest of these dungeons is the cathedral but if you don have the key you can do one run of the library to get it

[03:58] I saw some classic videos where they boost people through this dungeon, and this isn't without reason, as there's a ton of mobs grouped in a really small dungeon. What's not to like?

[04:15] It took me only 2 full runs, which I did in less than 8 minutes to get from level 28 to 40. Our next stop is Ul Farak.

[04:40] You can take the portal in Delaran to the Caverns of Time and walk or ride to there. One important thing to keep in mind is the dungeon instance local.

[04:52] You can only do 5 dungeons per hour, so if you're doing them too quickly, just chill out and do something else while you wait for it to pass.

[05:07] As you can see in this video, I came on my druid here. This is important for a few reasons. The mobs inside dismount you when you come close to them, but druids can partially avoid

[05:19] this with their travel form. It's also really easy to survive while pulling the mobs just by keeping a hot R2 on yourself.

[05:34] You also see me pulling the mobs with a rank 1 moonfire or infest form. I do this so I can pull the mobs without killing them in the process. Every bit of XP counts.

[05:52] This pool can get a bit tricky and it took me a few tries to nail it, but when you learn it, it goes pretty clean.

[06:10] Like in the previous dungeons, two rounds were enough to give me ten levels and I went on to the next area.

[06:22] Once we hit level 50, we come to Threathorn.

[06:38] I use two more of my DKs and I go to the side entrance. If you don't have the key to the side entrance, just clear the dungeon normally until you get it.

[06:51] Strat Home is also a really great boosting dungeon, as there is a shitload of mobs inside it without abilities that can hurt you too much.

[07:03] As we go through Strat Home, I'd like to talk about the channel a bit. I'm honestly shocked just how many people are watching my videos lately, and I'd like

[07:18] I want to thank you all for the support and the kind words I've been getting in the comments. Also, I promise you that the videos will only improve in quality.

[07:30] Almost all of my time goes into making them and learning how to improve them Notice how I try to keep the mage just outside of the double XP range but obviously I fail

[07:45] in it from time to time. Anyways, after clearing the three ziggurats we kill the voucher, say off-pegras on to

[08:03] one time and we killed the boss. The mount of course doesn't roped, but on the second

[08:22] I try. It also doesn't work.

[08:35] I then proceed to hearthstone out and I get ready for outland.

[08:47] Next I walk to outland. I literally walk as I only train my mount riding ability once I reach honor hold.

[08:59] We all know this dungeon, Hellfire Ramparts. The mobs here actually hit pretty hard, so just be careful not to pull too many of them.

[09:14] While outland questing is also a really fast way to level up, I don't think it can be measured with the XP you gain from just a few runs of this dungeon. With the double XP strategy it only took me 2 runs out of this place to get up to level 64.

[09:39] Don't pay too much attention to the stopwatch as I only remembered to turn it on too late. The next part of our journey takes us to the Cetric Halls.

[09:55] As I had a bit of a brain fart I forgot to press the record button when I was boosting my mage, so I came back on my boonie to show you what I did.

[10:08] I really wasn't expecting this, but the mobs inside kicked my ass. The timeless controllers drop a board that spawns you for 20 seconds, and they initiate with a shield on a random map that reflects your spells.

[10:28] I hate to admit it, but I killed myself with it more than a few times. If you are boosting yourself on a tester, I would recommend trying a different dungeon,

[10:43] as this one was torture for me. If you know a good late DBC dungeon for this, please type it in the comments.

[11:04] Even with all the mistakes, I managed to do two full runs in less than 30 minutes.

[11:20] That was enough to bring me to level 68 and to Northrend The journey to Borean Tundra took me some time with some dude thinking I was a girl on the boat and a rogue killing me in the air

[11:41] Even after 12 years, Baal is still full of virgins. The dungeon I chose for this part of the journey was the Nexus.

[11:54] It's a good dungeon to boost yourself in, as the mobs are for fairly high levels, but in retrospect, I really wish I came here on my paladin.

[12:06] This is because the mobs at the left wing of the dungeon lower your spell damage by damage by 75% and silences you fairly often.

[12:26] You see me almost dying here to those molts, but I was able to pull out of it with shadow meld.

[12:38] Even with the rest of the dungeon being pretty easy, it took an hour and 20 minutes for the seven levels I got there.

[12:57] Northland gets pretty tough. For our last chapter we go to the Oculus.

[13:13] I can't tell you how much time I spent in this instance farming leather for my first shadowmorph, but that means I know it like the back of my hand.

[13:26] Notice where I leave my mage, so it can stay in range of experience, but not to be too

[13:38] close to the mobs. The skinning is the reason why I first started leveling characters here, as you can kill two birds with one stone.

[13:50] However, I was going for speed in this run, so I cleared all the constructs and the platforms in order to level up more quickly.

[14:03] These constructs hit like a truck if they get close to you, so try to kite them before they can lay down below. It took me 7 runs of this, or a little less than an hour, and I was finally able to hit

[14:20] The final count is 5 hours and 7 minutes.

[14:47] I'm happy with the time, but I think that I can take it below 4 hours if I really try.

[15:03] Thank you for watching. Please consider subscribing if you enjoy my videos, as a lot of effort goes into making them. And I'll see you in the next one.

[15:17] Thank you.
