1. Wasted time is wasted experience. From the moment you log in you need a plan. A thought out route of which quest leads to what quest. Most quests in Warcraft are chained to other quests but some require extensive travel to finish. The more time you spend searching for a quest or the mobs to kill or items to find to finish the longer it will take you to level. This is where a detailed game plan is invaluable.

2. Have the right add-ons for your class.

Add-ons in World of Warcraft are essential. Its just finding the right ones for your class and race. Map add-ons are great for helping you reduce your downtime searching for quest objectives. Unfortunately most only give map coordinates you still have to research the quest online taking valuable game time away from you.

3. Choosing the right talent build for leveling fast.

Ok so you know where your going and what quest your on but one wrong choice in the talent tree can severely limit a characters ability to level fast. Some builds are great for PvP or raiding but are terrible for leveling fast. Who cares if you can nuke a mob in ten seconds if you have to sit on your butt regaining mana afterwards. The secret is to be constantly killing and going. Reduce that down time. That's where the right talent build comes into play.

4. Last but not least don't die!

This seems so obvious its almost laughable. But seriously every time you die wastes valuable time in running back to your corpse. This is where the above tips come into play. Knowing where your going beforehand knowing what levels the mobs are where your at and the safest route to your objective is key.

There's no reason you should have to waste your time and money grinding up thru the low levels when everyone knows the best part of the game is at the high end. Level on up fast and enjoy all that World of Warcraft has to offer!
