Mage Leveling – What’s The Quickest Way To Level Your WoW Mage 1 To 80?
You want to level your World of Warcraft mage to 80 as fast as possible? Read this mage leveling guide to find out what really matters!
I won’t waste breath on builds, glyphs, gear or stats here – because they matter little if you don’t use the fastest way to level. I’m talking about the difference between grouping, grinding and soloing. If you choose the wrong approach you will waste hours, regardless of how fine-tuned your talent build is.
The 4 Ways of Mage Leveling
First of all, I want to talk about grinding. Grinding for XP is just a waste of time. “But many players are grinding. They say that’s the quickest way to level!” you hear people saying? Well that’s outright wrong.
In the past, grinding was a viable way to level your character, but those days are gone. And you should feel thankful for this. Killing the same mob a hundred times over? Without me! Nowadays, there are more efficient ways to get to 80.
Which leads me to “playing in a party and visiting instances”. If you have friends you want to level with and you have fun playing with them, that’s great! But counting the numbers it’s not nearly as efficient as questing solo.
You can visit instances to loot the items and equip your mage, but while you’re in an instance you will complete relatively few quests and quests are the things that give you the most exp.
Don’t get me wrong – playing with friends and mates is great! Just don’t force yourself to find a group because you think it would save you time.
The third – and more effective – way is questing on your own without a mage leveling addon. Why do I emphasize “without an addon”? This is very important when it comes to leveling speed.
Questing, by far, is the most effective way to level 1 to 80, but with all the areas and quests, players get confused. In the end they waste hours of their time stumbling through the world. It can be frustrating to invest your time and effort into completing a quest just to find out that it’s a junk-quest that hardly gives you any gold or experience.
The forth and – in my opinion – most efficient way to ding 80 is questing with an in-game mage leveling addon.
In case you haven’t heard about in-game guides: They are addons that tell you where to go next and which quest to complete. It’s like having a blueprint that guides you through the levels in the fastest possible way and makes mage leveling easy and fun.
