Attendance & Burnout

[WildFire]

Kind of makes me wonder just how difficult power-levelling someone is in WoW if you put your mind to it.  What are the tricks you can do to funnel XP to someone specific?  Burn through quest XP with a 60 helping them, or grind mobs that are green to helper char, but yellow or orange or even red to the being-cheesed character?

Not hard at all, IMO. Find a friend who's 60 and do not party with them. Lowbie tags the mobs and the 60 helps kill. Skip all instances except when necessary for loot (and then, get a couple 60's to run you through quickly).

I used a lot of those same strategies on my mage. Of course, I skipped instances because it's damn near impossible to find a non-cheese group. Disclaimer: I would rather actually play a character to 60, but was biulding the mage for PvP (which turned out to be a huge waste of time since PvP on SR consists of waiting in line).

Actually, I don't think getting to 60 is as much as an issue as it is to get geared up enough to be effective in raids. This is especially true for tanks and healers.

To that end, there would be the 'need' to go on countless DM, LBRS, UBRS, Strath, Scholo runs to get pieces of class sets and other equipment.

Believe me, it won't be as hard for me to get a warlock to 60 as it is to replicate stuff like the Staff of the Ogre Magi, Briarwood Thorn, Crimson Felt Hat, Dragonrider Boots and Shroud of the Nathrezim that I have on my mage... not to mention the grind to Tailoring 300 so I can make a Robe of the Void.

I loves me my +dmg and +crit gear :wub:
