~Priest's Ultimate Leveling guide for Horde~
This guide is the result of literally years of playing WoW, and a lot of time wasted on unnecessary side-quests. There will be some stuff that you go "What? Why did you skip Hillsbrad?!". Well, yeah, I skip most of Hillsbrad; that's how I level. I always had a problem on new servers, in that I was always about 10 levels above everybody else, and so started solo'ing the whole game. It can be done, successfully. Before talking about my playing style, I'll cover what exactly I did to end up at my play style.
Playing WoW for the first time was pretty slow going. I tried nearly every single quest, wasting (as you probably know) tons of time on pointless (read: unrewarding) side-quests. But, by doing this I learned the quests that were worth doing, and the ones that weren't (because of the time vs. XP reward, and certain quests that are too hard to solo effectively). I started using great sites like Thottbot.com and wow.allakhazam.com because they show you every single quest in the game, plus large amounts of information regarding all quest/mob items, and the XP reward for them. I wanted to learn the game completely, and so I read every quest description, and took my time very slowly, learning everything possible. I did every instance 5 or more times, tried out every profession, and studied the information on websites about each instance, mob loot chances, and all the quests for them. While playing I was continually checking the map to see where I was and memorize the world. Up until this point, I've had this guide 'in my head' and not really on paper. After getting bugged continually by some friends and other people in the game on my play style, I decided to write this up.
The method of doing quests is, IMO, extremely accurate and shows people the fastest way to do most of all the Horde quests, in the least amount of time. This pattern was used by me to attain 4 days 20 hours /played time to lvl 60 on new servers, and it's now been revised even more. Also the quest patterns are pretty much the same no matter what class you choose (except you have to do your class's quests which aren't a whole lot). I'm going to give my quest patterns starting with a hunter in Durotar.
