Ok,
So you've hit level 40 on the game, you get your mount, and you're stoked to get to 45. I'm going to tell you what I did and didn't do, what did and didn't work for me when hitting 45. First off -
OMG, I'm LVL 30 HNTR AND WANT TO KNOW HW TO LVL 40! PLZ HLP PLZPLZPLZ! Whoa there skippy, I told you where I am in the game, I started this blog at level 40, I will not be going over my ealier levels here. if you really want to know how to go from level 30-40 go find a different guide, or just wait about a month for when I start a new character and probably blog that.
Anyways, first off what I did was -
I AM A L33T lvl 70! Y0u sHoLd BE DoiNG D!ffRent THINGS CAUS I ROX AND YOU'RE N0t A L33T PrO LKe mE!!! Ok, wow, uh...I don't know what to say, this is just what I did, nothing more and nothing less, I'm not here to go over EVERY POSSIBLE method, I'm just saying what worked out best for me. If you've got a nifty method for leveling, post it in comment, I'll review it, if I don't like it or think its dumb, I'll delete it, but if you're serious and know an easy or fun way to level in the context, just comment it.
Ok finally, onto legit content. First thing to know is that if you're at level 40 and have not hit up Stranglethorn Vale, go there immediatly. For the early 40s Stranglethorn Vale (STV) will be your friend. It has green quests, lots of green quests. What do I mean by green quests? I mean that when you pull up the quest log, the quest items are in green, this means that the recomended level to do the quest is about 2-3 levels below your level. These quests are good.
OH LOL I wOnt dO qUeSts tHat lOW, nOT g00d XP! Ok well let me explain why these quests are good, quest do give diminished XP if they're green, however, I belive it is only about a 10% loss in XP. The time it takes to finish a green quest from the recomended level drops by approximatly 25-50%. This makes the 10% XP loss negligable since you can finish 2 or more green quests in the time it would have taken you to finish 1 yellow, orange, or red quest.
Ok now that you understand the value of these green quests, don't blow off the yellow and orange ones, the reason being 2 things: Gear and Money. Lets face it, the high level quests give some kick-ass gear for relativly little work (Compared to running an instace a dozen times to get that one sword). Also, simple logic is, the harder the quest, the greater the weight in your pocketbook when you complete it. Simple
This brings me to my second leveling tip. Run at least one instance every other level, this wi-
iNSANcEz aR3 noT g00D foR lvliNG! Ok, true, they're not as fast XP by killing 2-3 monsters with 4 other people. However, let me explain my logic here. If you have instance quests, they usually give rewards MUCH better than regular quests, these rewards are usually gear. Better gear equals faster questing out on the world map. Faster questing equals faster leveling. Same with the weapons and armor in the instace. Sure you may not get the Dagger of + 20 Agi and +12 stam that you really wanted, but that amor drop that is better than your current one means less down time, more time killing. So keep this in mind, instances are good for gear, good gear is good for questing, good questing is good for leveling.
Ok, so there you go, Iwould say in STV until your at LEAST 42, preferable 43. Some people can stay in STV till 45, but I got bored at 43 so I left for some change of scenery. This took me down to Gadztan in Tanaris. Tanaris was great for me! It offerend some nice change of scenery as well as some heavier quests. The quests are not green and in fact a lot of them are orange, I personally found them about right, even though they were "Above" me. Had some trouble with some of the pirate quests down in the souther part of Tanaris, but with a good buddy about the same level as me, they went by quick and the rewards were awsome. I hit 45 in Tanaris a day after I got there. My final time for Level 40-45? About 10-15 hours of game play. Not bad, and the green quests were nice!
oMG! i can't d0 thaT, pLZ h3LP! Well thats a personal problem, I did it fine and I can only thing of one quest "Tapped Water Dowsing" where I had an issue with the quests being WAAAAYYY to hard. So I delt with it and you should just suck it up and do the same!

First Post? Who's the nut job with the name Kitty?
Ok,
lets be honest here, a guy with the name of Kittyman is sure to raise a few eyebrows, but hey come on, it at least grabs some attention on the many games that I play. Speaking of games, the whole reason I decided to start this thing! I am an avid gamer and love playing and sharing tips with others...that and I'm usually pretty bored at work at about 3:00 in the afternoon, so hey, I think I should put that time to "good" use.
Ok, so who am I? Welllllll I'm sure thats a great question, but one that I don't feel like answering, so for now all you need to know is that I'm a loveable ball of fur who enjoys long walks on the beach, laying out in the sun and getting my paws on a game. There you go, all you need to know about me.
What is the purpose of this bloggy-thinggy? Uh...good question, if I had a good answer I'd give it. The answer probably closest is that I enjoy telling people what I'm up too in games and to give people tips on games that I play. There you go simple as that. Oh, and I'm pretty bored sometimes, so that helps.
Ok...so you're a nut with a wierd name and too much time, what games DO you play with this time? Ah, finally a question I can answer. I play a large variety of games, anywhere from the popular World of Warcrack...I mean World of Warcraft, Call of Duty 4, PuzzleQuest, Rock Band, Guitar Hero, Command and Conquer, etc. The could go on for a while. I've been playing games heavily for the pas 8 years, a fact which my favorite feline female laments at times (Ok a lot of the time) But hey what can I say, its a lot more fun than going out into the yard and working on the lawn.
Will you be updating this everyday? No, in fact I'd be shocked if I update more than twice a week. But hey, I'm not getting paid to do this so, what does it matter.
Wow are you always this crazy? Yes.
That was a short answer. That wasn't a question, you're fired from being my question asker.
You can't fire me, I'm YOU. I just did! , now deal with it.
Fine, whatever when can we be expecting some good game tips? Ah, OK, a legit question (But you're still fired) Hopefully this afternoon if I get bored, I'm currently on a World of Warcraft spree (and attempting to get my Favorite Female Feline, hence to be known as F3, to play with me) I'm on a path to see how long it will take me to hit level 70.
Is this strictly a video game blog? Probably not, I'll guarantee that there will be video games, but expect some other junk to slide into the blog at times, you know, politics, news, music, etc. But usually there will be video games.
Do you often argue with yourslef? No Comment, now leave.
