Pick the Right Character

If you're starting the game and planning on leveling up fast by yourself, then you probably want to avoid picking a Priest. While a Shaman or Rogue can easily and quickly level himself solo, some classes take a longer time to level if they don't have help. If you're just looking to get your first character to a high level to supply the rest of your characters, take a character that can dish out some damage and doesn't rely on a group. Obviously, if you've already got your character, just do the best you can with what you've got.

To Group or Not to Group

As mentioned above, if you've got a class like a Priest that can't deal much damage, you'll likely need to rely on finding a group. The good news is at least most groups are eager to have a priest. Just yell "LFG" (looking for group) and see if anyone will help. However, be aware that pick-up groups come with problems, such as poor communication and unhelpful people, that can slow your leveling. On the other hand, if you have a guild or some friends that can help you out, you might be able to get them to power-level you.

The Ultimate Power-Level Trick

Here's a great trick to take advantage of WOW's flag mechanics. Once you attack a mob a few times, it will become "flagged" for you; you can tell because the mob name line turns red for you and gray for other players. The purpose of this is to ensure that if you are fighting something, nobody else can swoop in for the kill and steal your experience.

However, you can use this feature to your advantage if you have a higher-level friend or two willing to help you. Find an area with mobs that are slightly above your level but ones that can't kill you too fast. Hit a mob once or twice until it becomes flagged as yours. Then have your friend come in and kill the flagged mob, while you move on to flag the next one. Even though your higher-level friend is doing the killing, you'll get all the experience! This is a great way to power-level your character.

Solo Questing

As you may know, the fastest way to level up your WOW characters is to do lots of quests. A key to speedy leveling is to take and complete multiple quests at once so you don't run in circles. Ideally in every zone, you should start by finding all the NPCs and gathering all the quests you can, and then going to the questing area and working on a few at once by killing and looting everything in sight.

Quick Tips For Speed

- When questing solo, it is important to stay a few levels ahead of the monsters in your region. By the time you're past level 20, you want to stick to mostly green quests only when solo leveling. Even the yellow quests can present a problem for the solo adventurer, and problems mean more dying, more resting, and slower leveling.

- You may find that some quests on your quest log turn gray because you have become too high-level for them. In this case, it's generally best to just discard them and move on.

- If you're trying to speed things up and don't care about extra flavor text, open the game's options tab and turn on "Quick Quest Text" which will speed things up.

- Don't bother buying equipment from NPCs, or repairing your items early on. All the equipment you could buy or repair will be obsolete once you gain a few levels which you should be able to do quickly. You'll want to save all your money for your skills as they are what will stay with you as you level up.

- Don't bother examining your inventory. The only important thing to know is how close you are to completing quests, and you can see that without looking at your loot. Just shift-right-click on any mob you kill (or any herb/ore spot) to loot everything you can instantaneously.

Quick-Start Questing

Horde:

Start by completing all the quests in your starting region. After that, Undead should head to Brill, and make space in your inventory to gather pumpkins, claws, and so on. Tauren should head to Bloodhoof and complete all the quests around there. Orcs and Trolls should head to Razor Hill but attack the fort to the South before heading into the village.

Alliance:

Start by completing all the quests in your starting region. After that, Humans should go to Westfall (and Sentinel Hill), Elves should go to Darkshore and focus just on the easiest quests, and Dwarves and Gnomes should head to Loch Modan, from Thelsamar to the Stonewrought Dam.

Finishing all those quests should put your levels easily into the teens. After that, here is the official list of where to find quests for your future leveling:
