Nice runs all! Will get this updated when I can.

ivodeb without screenshot and confirmation on your exact time I can’t add it to the leaderboards, unfortunately, but if you do another I’ll be happy to add you!

Hey guys, I'm pretty new here. Found this site and wanted to start practicing for classic launch so I'll be doing 1-10 and 1-20 speed runs (Horde side). Anyone have any real good tips? Last I played was 2 months after Northdale released and I leveled a few characters there, but all I used was Joana's guide or Vanilla guide. Do you guys use routes that heavily deviate from Joana's? If anyone wants to toss me a route (or not, i know some like to keep theirs secret, and they can take a lot of work to make) or some tips, I'll gladly try them out. I'll be practicing rogue, warrior, and mage going orc/orc/troll respectively. Hope to see yall around!

Nice run Judgement ! Sounds like you'd be faster than me in similar conditions (repack). Were there any major differences in your route from mine?

In other news, I've been doing some theorycrafting, discussion, and testing, and I think I'm going to pivot away from Human and be a Dwarf Paladin for speedleveling purposes. My rationale is as follows:

  • Dun Morogh is a faster zone than Elwynn Forest

  • I'm going to be duo leveling with a Lock, and Gnome Lock is stronger early game due to +int

  • getting to Darkshore is quicker from Dun Morogh than Elwynn

    dopedcamel what class did you intend to run? I’ve tested quite a few different routes for 1-10 as Orc/Troll Hunter and Joanna’s route is a good base route to start with and make adjustments. Things are a lot different for other classes, though.

    It will surely be either a rogue, warrior, or mage. I've yet to decide. Mage gets me going a bit because I love to farm money in games and twink out characters, and mage is just really nice with that easy mara/DM farming with nobody to contest it. Warrior/rogue is likely my ideal "main" simply due to the DPS. I'll probably try a few runs on each and make a split second decision when classic comes closer.

    Also, does this place have a discord?

    dopedcamel first post has videos for both Horde Rogue and Warrior runs 1-10. Haven’t really seen any Mage runs for Horde side and haven’t tried personally. There’s a popular Alliance Mage speedrunner and from comments in his videos he seems to believe Undead times can compete with Gnome (as fast as 1:25 1-10), for what it’s worth.

    @dopedcamel I'm also gonna release a 1-20 run too. Can consistently do 1-10 orc rogue in 1h45m.
    Not sure how low i can get 20 yet tho.

    Everything should be up to date once again.
    40 total entries and nearly 10k views on this thread in ~3 months! Extremely impressed with some of these times, great job all. Keep em coming, I'll do my worst attempt at keeping the leaderboards up to date! :mrgreen:

  • Hello @vamp, I havent had time to watch your video yet, will do when I come home from work and compare. I will do my run again later this week and record it aswell.
    If Dun Morogh is faster I can't really say, but overall were probably talking about mere minutes here which in the long run 1-60 wont make any difference really.

    Any chance someone can help with this lights hope repack? I seem to be starting the right files and all, but after I login with admin/admin, it suggest the realm Lights Hope which is greyed out and unclickable. Unable to create any characters or anything. Haven't found anyone else with this problem, any ideas?

    dopedcamel did you change your realmlist to the repack appropriate one?

    Have you started MySQL.bat, realmd.exe and mangos.exe? What about your realm.wtf config file, is that pointing to the correct IP address as per broltanias instructions?
