First Legion Lvl 110 in Under 6 Hours

Recommended Posts

5 hours 28 minutes for level 110, Serenity's Fragnance didn't really fully experience the Legion leveling experience, did he?

Well that didn't take long. As per tradition, the new expansion leveling experience (no pun intended) was a very short one for the first person to get to max level. This time around it was Fragnance from top World First contender, Serenity, who were formed from the bulk of Method's raiding roster some months ago.

Five hours and 28 minutes was the exact time it took for "Sicklikeme" the Demon Hunter on Twisting Nether to ding 110 with his leveling partner Gingi, and there's a handy VoD of the whole thing (leveling starts around the 1H40Min mark):

Also, I know this is just a little late, but hey, it's my first day here so gimme a break!

So, hi everyone from the Icy Veins community, you'll be seeing more of me in the news section (WoW in particular)! Hope we can talk in the comments as well.

It's like one giant mass of ... I was going to say Humanity - but OMG...

That's fast, would never pick the new hero class for 'first max level achi' because too many players want to play with that class.

But anyway, I enjoy the layback and live the lore approach, even though I won't reach 110 long after the first players, the experience is longer lasting than any achievement :)

I'm pretty sure I took longer than that just to get to 103.

honestly this, now i by no means am trying to power level but i've spent every moment not sleeping or working on the game and im only 104. now, every time anything in my order hall opens up i do that, i've got all the quests i can do done, and my artifact is pretty far along imo, but my guild already has around 30 ish lvl 110s. 

even then i think i'll lose some popularity with this statement but I don't see the point in striving for world first or server first max level character. sure you can start gearing a bit faster i suppose, but you don't experience the game at all, mmos are about immersion and power leveling straight through makes that impossible. to each their own of course, if you buy a sandwich i have no right to tell you how to enjoy it, but i'm not going to applaud you for finishing your sandwich first. think about an expensive meal, you hork it down and everyone looks at you funny asking if you could even taste it etc, same principle here.

@demonardvark

I agree that for most people there really is no point in getting WF or server first max level, but these guys basically experienced EVERYTHING already on beta, where they also planned the routes to level this fast and so on. This particular one wasn't even specifically planned as a "world first run" I'd say, just generally "let's level fast".

Also different people enjoy thing differently, I mean your reaction was fine and measured, but some of the ones on Facebook for example really get stupid "I enjoy things this way, thus this person is dumb/no life etc because they didn't do it the way I would". I also am taking it reeeeeeally slowly but I also totally understand the speed leveling impulse, even if you hadn't previously done everything on the beta. These guys also have like a gazillion alts (I blame Blizz for making it almost mandatory for each top guild player to have well geared alts in order to compete).

This part right here is key to all of this. When you've got 5 characters that you "need" to level for raiding, are you really going to take your time and relax while leveling, especially after experiencing it all? No chance.

      Blizzard have detailed an upcoming nerf coming "soon" (presumably today) to the pendultimate boss of Amirdrassil Mythic. Players will now be getting 2 extra feathers so more can dragonride and grab the orbs, and especially to do more damage to the roots.
      Tindral (Source)
      With a hotfix that we’ll apply to the game soon:
      Tindral Sageswift Fallen Feathers now spawn 6 feathers (was 4) on Mythic Difficulty. And as always, this change will be listed later in our Hotfixes Update.

      A big week 3 in the dungeons, as we'd usually see things stabilizing by now, but the constant  class tuning is not letting things calm down. After last week's smaller tuning pass we had a big one hit this week, so things won't be staying as they are for long!
      Warcraft Logs Points
      The below logs are based on POINTS, and not actual damage or healing, meaning they log the timed completion for the specs, with higher keys getting more points, obviously. The time in which the dungeon is completed is also a factor, but a much, much smaller one, as it grants very few points if you do it significantly faster than just any in-time completion. We're also using the Normalized Aggregate Scores numbers, for clarity, meaning the top spec is marked as 100 and then the rest are ranked in relation to that peak point.
      All Keys
      95th percentile DPS
      Augmentation keeps showcasing why its raid logs are very very wrong, as the completion-based charts sees them just not budging from the top! Fire moves up in the world as both it and Havoc move past Outlaw and form the top 3, as Demonology stands firm behind the Rogue. Assassination apparently isn't happy with just dominating raids, so it's gaining ground here as well, moving 2 spots up into 7th, same as  Beast Mastery in 8th. However, both specs got hit by the nerf bat this week so we'll see where they end up next time. Arcane and Enhancement close out the top 10, with the Mage dropping down and the Shaman moving up.

      Mythic+ All Keys 95th Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      All Percentiles
      The top 4 remains identical in the generalist bracket, as we see Demonology breaking up the monotony and pushing into a Mage sandwich in 5th. BM is up for now here as well, as Fury still does much better and closes out the top 10. The bottom 3 are similar to the above chart, with the rest of the Warlocks down in the dumps, but with Marksmanship joining them instead of Devastation.

      Mythic+ All Keys All Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      U.GG DPS Rankings
      U.gg's rankings are based on actual DPS taken from Warcraft Logs data, focusing on the top players and span the past two weeks.
      Havoc reigns supreme in the actual DPS charts, quite a bit ahead of Demonology in second, which is basically tied with Beast Mastery in third! However, let's not forget the raw DPS numbers are not tracking Augmentation properly so let's imagine it up here somewhere as well, instead of down in the bottom 3. The two Rogues both remains stable in 4th and 5th as Arcane drops off a big 4 spots, leaving Enhancement in its 6 spot. Retribution and Survival also used this opportunity and moved up in the world, with the Paladin gaining a solid 3 spots and the Hunter a giant 8 in 8th! Fire is also on the rise with a 4-spot bump, just ahead of its fallen Mage brother.

      Mythic+ All Keystone DPS rankings by u.gg.


      For even more in-depth data for each individual key head on over to Warcraft Logs and u.gg. And if you're interested in more info on the specs themselves you can always check out our class guides, as well as our Mythic+ guides and Mythic+ tier list.

      Today, we're looking at a video covering some scrapped Warlords of Draenor content.
      The video was created by Dovah the Explorer who shows off unused and untextured maps. Zones that were never finished or used for anything in the Warlords of Draenor expansion (with the exception of a few game objects / assets).
      We get to see unfinished zones like Karabor Interior.

      There's also an orcish city named Grommar that never went live.

      We also see a bunch of prototype garrisons for each zone that never went live, even a Tier 4 one with a cathedral.

      You can watch Dovah's video with more scrapped content below.
