Impressive time! Good job!
Quick question:
What route would you suggest for a Dwarf/Gnome after Gol'Bolar Quarry? Jump over the cliff to Menethil Harbour and catch the boat to Darkshore?
Edit: Thinking about it, that would depend on class.
Oh I almost forgot, I wanted to mention Joanna did a 1-60 recently on repack and finished at ~3 days 22 hours played. He posted here with his times at various levels: https://www.reddit.com/r/classicwow/comments/b73ggh/some_joana_speedrun_data_times_xph_and_more/ejpg72v/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app
It’s a great reference to gauge your pacing.
To add to that, the first 60 on Nethergarde hit it in 3 days, 10 hours and 40 something minutes as an aoe grinding mage. People are saying that the server isn't particulraly well scripted and he might have abused to get that time, so take it as you will.

I'm not sure if Nethergarde has, but a lot of private servers has dynamic respawn which makes mobs spawn way faster. So if they respawn every 2 mins instead of 5 mins, this is a huge advantage to a mage aoe farmer, to always get big packs

I see this a lot but dynamic respawn is..dynamic. That means it only changes when a certain threshold of players are within a certain area. Anyone who’s tried AoE farming as a Mage knows well that it’s counter-productive to be around a lot of people and as you start to get ahead of the pack there’s less people around = less effect from dynamic respawn. My guess is he got ahead of the pack early (as we’ve seen, Mage is quite capable of leveling fast early) and had a good plan for early AoE leveling. Mage is definitely capabale of leveling ridiculously fast if they have uncontested AoE farm and if DM was available at that launch it’s even better. Ultimately, someone was slacking on Hunter to not take server first.

Ahh yeah you are right about dynamic respawn. But i wouldn't even say the "slacking" part is true. I was rushing to 60 on northdale (got top 10 on horde side on release) the fastest to 60 on northdale on horde side was actually a mage called Kenny. I think mage is VERY underated if they get ahead, just like u said he most likely was. Wouldn't even suprise me if mage is the faster then Mage on repack version, because of their ability to aoe grind.
On another note, just did a run on repack version, honestly think i can get a few mins off more. Going to stream/record my next run though
Rogue - 1-10 - 1.47.50
Benchmarks were roughly:
- 22m: lvl 6 & starting zone done
- 26m: in bloodhoof
- 36m: lvl 7
- 50m: lvl 8
- 1hr 02m: lvl 9
- 1hr 15m: lvl 10
Done on the LH repack. Wouldve taken 5+ minutes longer if I had been doing skinning quests and went into TB, just wanted to see how fast 1-10 could go.
I did the run on my shitty uni notebook but i'll record a run when i'm home from finals.
My discord # is on my profile if anyone wants to talk about mulgore/barrens/shaman speedrun stuff :mrgreen:
- 1hr 15m: lvl 10
Jesus christ that is fast, well done sir!
Hi everyone, I love this thread, but I am so curious as to how people are actually posting these times? Is leveling a druid in mulgore that much slower than a hunter/rogue/warrior in durotar? I keep trying, here are some of my times. Would love any tips and rotation help. I'm using Joana's guide so I get bear form at 12. Then I skip wildmane cleansing and get to the barrens in under 5 hours.
I was excited, but then I saw this thread and its times!

If someone would post a video of mulgore, I would love it. Do I need to push bear form at 10?

Hey, I used to run tauren druid a lot. It's not really slower and tbh you can be ahead of everyone by 10 on a fresh just by virtue of being in mulgore and having a good route. My best tauren druid run on a repack was something like arriving in crossroads @ lvl 12.5 ish in ~2hr30m. DM me on discord (tag is on my profile) and I can show you the route I used.
And yeah you should be pushing bear at 10 asap.
Leaderboards updated.
Nice runs everyone and grats Colroyds in particular, that's the fastest level 10 time of heard of anywhere.
Thanks for the tips and encouragement! I will reach out on discord, and look forward to trying your route and posting my new times!

My 1-20 run came in at 8h57m31s. I was short of those hunter 1-20s, but felt pretty good other than some mistakes on my part. I died a couple of times and way overshot level 20; if I'd gone back to XR sooner I could have shaved off a substantial amount of time. But again, I am not optimizing for 20, but rather how fast I can get to 20 on my 1-60 route.
