Hey Shamanigans - I use rockbiter 100% of the time since I am using a 2hander the whole run. I use 2hander only because I earthbind kite, thus making my swings trade 1 for 1 with the mob I'm fighting. However, the fellas on the shaman discord have been doing quite a bit of testing in the beta and have concluded that mob armor values are way different from private servers and that rockbiter isn't going to be the clear victor for 2handers that it was. The consensus is that you'll probably just want to use your highest level enhancement or windfury.
Also, I hear that earthbind kiting is more difficult in beta due to better mob tracking. If that's indeed the case, 1h/shield may be the way to go on Classic launch. If it's a fast 1h, flametongue does pretty well. Otherwise, again just use the highest level enhancement.
Been working hard on my 1-20 route and I am very glad with the result. managed to break 8h which I didn't expect. Feels really smooth so far and very eager to trying it out on the new LH fresh next week to see how it works when you have come competition

split into 2 vids, Is a route for fast 1-10, with adjustments can be a normal route. If anyone with beta/stress access could test the mob pathing used would help alot!
Thanks to Zeroji,Lesh,Alenya,Ahmp and Karmond for streaming the beta!

Nice job! Make a video for 10 - 20.
Was a little bored with running several druids from 10-20, that I decided to test my mulgore route on a different class. I honestly believe I can push this run under 1 hour and 25 minutes if I play at full focus and dont suffer from severe lack of rngia (actual disease, look it up :biggrin: )
Classic Beta PvP server. Shaman 1-10 in 1 hour and 36 minutes flat.
Hehe, not bad. Yea you should be able to do a sub 1:26h run.
Sad thing, you wont be that fast at release :p
Actually all people who train 1-20 train something they cant really predict. You should train 20-60...cause at 20 you will be ahead of the pack (mostly with other fast people)
I guess there is a truth in that. But for example, with the release of MoP all the horde started on the exact same spot. I played the beta and mapped out my entire leveling route which got me ahead of the pack within the first 15 minutes of release. Got realms first as well. Not saying launch won't be slower, but simply knowing where to go and what to do is such an advantage. At this stage I can pretty much dream the 1-10 route, almost that far with my 10-20, after that 20-35 etc etc
yar, can you upload ur shaman 1-10?

1.40.16 Rogue Orc Time on Beta server (PVP)
Was my first time using this route for a while, i did a few mistakes tbh, the biggest forgetting to put hearth to razor. Still beat my old record (not counting my 1.35 where i had a dagger drop) I think i should be able to get this down to 1.35-1.36 for sure and 1.26-1.27 if i get a dagger drop on beta.
I didn't record this run but will do a new 1-10 orc rogue where i stream it on twitch & might upload to youtube too :)
Twitch.tv/tactics_lol if u want to see some beta speedrunning
So with no access to beta im stuck practicing on pservers again. My goal is to hopefully be within the top 40 people hitting 60 on my faction, hitting 60 within 6 days of launch.
This time, I decided on Lightbringer. With the amount of people also doing practice runs in the early levels I thought it would give me a more realistic idea of what launch may be like, with the amount of people thinning out the higher you get.
Completed 2 runs to 30 sofar, with the second run being around 20h 40min - pretty meh but if I can post that time come launch I wont be complaining.
On my third run I managed to beat my PB to 20 by around 20 mins, at 8 hours 25mins. Going to take this through to 30 again and hopefully be under that 20 hour mark. After that im gonna start taking all three through the 30-40.
