Looking for tips on how to level your characters as quickly as possible, with as little fuss as possible? Getting frustrated by corpse runs and being constantly forced to stop and rest between mobs? Don't worry, this guide is here to help!

The first thing I want to tell you is to learn about your class. Learn what specs are best for leveling, learn what kind of gear you should be wearing. There are a ton of sources out there that a quick search will bring up. And my blog has regular posts on the specifics of leveling different classes.

One thing a lot of people do is start following a leveling guide they get online, and find themselves struggling to down the mobs. This is a problem caused by the fact that most speed-levelers use the easiest classes for leveling, such as Hunter. Even if you are just doing quests as they come, you can encounter this problem. The secret here is to get a few levels ahead of the content you are on, and always quest on green or nearly-green mobs.

If you aren't already carrying level-appropriate food and water, start doing so. Minimizing downtime is the real goal of everything we do when it comes to speeding up leveling, because it is the biggest factor in how quick we level. Use mana-efficient spells and abilities, use wands and melee, and conserve health by using defensive techniques, stunning abilities, and things like snares and roots. Also, again, fight lower-level mobs.

One thing that can slow people down is being under-geared. Make sure you are wearing good gear for your level; you can get it from the auction house, quests, or instances, but don't let your gear fall behind. (Speaking of instances, make sure to use the new Dungeon Finder system to do level-appropriate instances. They are great experience per hour AND provide amazing gear.)

Of course, speaking of the AH: Don't spend all your time visiting the city to buy/sell things! Use an alt instead. Just mail everything you want to sell to him, and mail everything you buy back. Also, be sure you are selling EVERYTHING of white or better quality on the AH, other than food and water. This will give you more than enough gold to buy everything you need or want.
