Sorry to everyone who posted runs lately for the delay with updates, busy weekend at work and it’s difficult to update on phone without breaking the table alignment. I’ll get this updated soon.
@jpy no worries, u are doing a great job here! We know u update them whenever u have time <3
I just did my best run so far, i did have a lucky dagger drop at the start, but i figured out a faster route with Colroyds.
1.35.14 Durotar 1-10 rogue orc
Tactics very nice, well done!
Anyone tried doing Tauren runs? Ive seen some mulgore screenshots recently with really sick level 10 times. And considering how under represented the race is, and it having only 4 playing classes, I feel like it might be the best one for launch.
Massivechonk could definitely be a really good option if you really want to try for server first etc but I don’t have enough time to push any further than ~40 before I have to go back to IRL so I don’t think I can bring myself to roll Tauren over Troll or Orc.
I have limited time as well, so getting a head of the pack asap is going to be a big deal. I'm going to have to test 1-20 at least to figure out how things flow and compare it to troll.
So disappointed. I stayed up way too late to squeeze in a run and try harded as fuck.
Literally 1 second improvement....
Massivechonk i’ll try it out as well but no promises on how long it’ll take me to have a postworthy time, I don’t think I’ve played Tauren in Vanilla at all lmao

You're being consistent, which is realy good. It maybe time to work on the next section :)
Massivechonk Colroy is the resident Mulgore buff and gave some good info over discord. One main reason I suspect his time is also considerably fast for Mulgore is Shaman has the only interrupt (Earthshock) and there are a LOT of casting mobs that are problematic in the run (Quillboar shamans at 4, Gnoll Tanners at 6, Dwarf Appraisers the absolute worste at 6 also, Harpy casters at 7 and 9/10) but not certain.
I'm still looking to improve my Druid time for Mulgore, which with this help is around 1hr 45 now
oddiz4u Around 1:45 seems good, and the point about earthshock is on point. I'm more worried about how fast you get to Crossroads and transition to doing barrens quests.

If u want to try some new route feel free to add me on discord, i got a very interesting new route in durotar, u might be able to save a few mins. However i'm not sure how well it works for hunters since i didn't try :p

The transition from mulgore to barrens really isn't that bad. I end my mulgore run by handing in "the venture co." + "supervisor fiszsprocket" on the road before CT. Then it's just a short run to CT, grab the FP etc. Run about two mins north then die past the bridge so that I res in XR.
In my experience on fresh servers any time you lose getting to XR is negligible compared to the time you gain from routing in mulgore vs durotar/tirisfal.

My first attempt at speedrunning. Tauren Druid is pretty painful, as you can only cast one wrath before you're OOM at low levels.
Level 10 was around 1h50m, but didn't get a screenshot. Sloppy run, all things considered.
Another run on the repack. This time with a paladin. Died twice.
One thing I noticed on this run was that I was consistently hitting levels earlier in the route than I was with other classes because I was grinding more mobs due to the increased uptime of paladins. We kill slowly but there's very little downtime in between.
Just did another 1-10 in elwynn with paladin. Trying to get a better time and I did decently well. This was done on Northdale.
It was in no way a perfect run - I died twice to being a little cocky when bubble was on CD, and since there is quite a lot of people leveling on northdale atm I had to wait for respawns on a few mobs here and there, should be able to shave off another 5+mins with a better run.
