A Dungeon Guide for World of Warcraft
The
fastest way to take your World of Warcraft character from level one to 80 is
dungeon leveling, but the problem is that many of the current leveling guides
just don’t support this new method of leveling.
Dungeon leveling is now widely popular as more and more WoW players
discover just how fast they can level their toons. Here’s a quick dungeon guide to get you
started.
Dungeon
leveling basically involves running dungeons to get the experience you need to
level. In some cases, you’ll level so
quickly that you will gain one or two levels in just one instance run. Dungeon leveling came about as a result of
the dungeon finder, which was added with patch 3.3 in the Wrath of the Lich
King expansion. The dungeon finder
allows players from all the servers in one server group to unite together and
run an instance. It makes it possible
for players to find groups to run instances back-to-back, no matter what time
of the day it is.
Your
Party Role Matters
One
of the most important things to remember about dungeon leveling is that your
role in the party does matter. Tanks and
healers will have little to no wait time in between dungeons, but DPS classes
may have to wait as long as 40 minutes in some cases. It all just depends on how many people within
your server group are queuing for dungeons within your current level
range. Of course the short wait time for
healers and tanks may pressure some players to queue as a healer or tank just
so they don’t have to wait, but it is very impolite to choose these roles if
you don’t understand them. Make sure you
know what being a tank or healer requires before you decide to try to queue as
one.
The
Rewards are Better
Other
than the speedy leveling benefits, there are also other reasons dungeon
leveling has caught on so quickly.
Overall, you will earn more gold while dungeon leveling. Additionally, you will have more access to
better loot. The loot that drops from
the bosses in the dungeons is far superior to anything you’ll find while out
solo questing.
Don’t
Forget the Dungeon Quests!
You’ll also be
able to complete the dungeon quests while you’re dungeon leveling. Dungeon quests are usually available in towns
that are nearby the entrance to the dungeon.
They must be completed while inside the dungeon, which means you’ll not
only be soaking up experience from all the kills you make inside the dungeon,
but you’ll also get to collect a massive amount of additional experience when
you turn in the dungeon quests later.
And if you didn’t win the rolls on the exceptional gear that dropped
while you were inside the dungeon, you’ll be happy to know that the gear you
earn as a reward for completing the dungeon quests is also better than anything
you’ll earn from a solo quest.
