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!

OMG...  I am from Ravencrest and we're nowhere near that populated...  That is ridiculous...

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.

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.

      Learn more about the Matrix Catalyst in the War Within that lets you transform non-set items into tier set pieces!
      You'll find the Matrix Catalyst in Dornogal, the capital city for both factions.

      Nearby, you'll see Custodian Khubon, the Catalyst Steward for the expansion.
      You can ask him about the Catalyst, though he's somewhat misguided. He believes the famed titan keepers crafted it, but we've had this for three expansions now, so we know the real story.


      To convert a non-set item into a set piece, you must insert an eligible Veteran track or higher Season 1 item, following a structure similar to the previous expansion.

      As for catalyst charges,  I think you will get your first charge when Season 1 starts on September 10 and every other week you will receive an additional charge.

      Larovus has hit the jackpot for the year! Both the rare Tusks of Mannoroth and the Kor'kron Juggernaut mount dropped from a single Mythic Garrosh kill.
      Fortunately, you can now kill Garrosh on a daily basis, but it still requires a lot of luck to loot both items simultaneously, as they have a drop rate of about 1%.

      Here's a close-up of the loot window. As you can see, Larovus has looted the Tusks of Mannoroth and the Kor'kron Juggernaut mount in one kill.

      Have you had any luck with double rare raid drops? Let me know in the comments below!

      The War Within Season 1 adds new kiss/curse affixes and here is a spreadsheet with class specializations that will benefit from the kiss portion of each affix.
      New Kiss/Curse Affixes in War Within Season 1
      Blizzard recently unveiled the following kiss/curse affixes making its way to Mythic+ in Season 1.
      Attuned - Non-boss enemies with mana inflict 20% more magic damage, but take 10% increased Nature damage and 30% increased damage from Bleed effects. Focused - Non-boss enemies with mana have 30% increased Haste, but take 10% increased Frost and Fire damage. Reckless - Non-boss enemies without mana ignore 20% armor with their attacks, but their armor is reduced by 30% and they take 10% increased Arcane damage. Thorned - Non-boss enemies without mana inflict Physical damage to their attackers when attacked, but take 10% increased Holy and Shadow damage. Which Classes/Specializations Benefit from the Kiss Portion the Most?
      If you read the affix tooltips, it is obvious that some classes will benefit more from their effect. For instance, during Reckless weeks, you want to bring an Arcane Mage, or a Balance Druid, and so forth.
      Denethar has created a useful spreadsheet covering which specs benefit from the affixes the most, you can find it here.

      The Prismatic Bauble toy is easier to purchase during this month! 
      Usually, the toy's available for 250,000 gold from the Mad Merchant who doesn't spawn often. However, during Pride Month, you can purchase Prismatic Bauble directly from Jepetto Joybuzz in Legion Dalaran, avoiding the long wait.
      The toy will still cost 250,000 Gold, though. You can find Jepetto Joybuzz at the Dalaran Toyworks.


      Happy Pride Month!

      Find out how fast you can level from 10 to 70 in the War Within pre-patch after the recent XP nerfs!

      Experience the New XP Changes in the War Within Pre-Patch
      Starting in the War Within pre-patch, leveling from 10 to 70 now requires 54% less experience compared to retail. This means faster progression and a more streamlined gameplay experience. For an in-depth look at these changes, check out our detailed article on big XP requirement nerfs.
      Speed Leveling to 70: A Case Study
      MrGM managed to level from 10 to 70 in just 10 hours and 2 minutes of /played time by following the Dragon Isles Campaign and completing side quests. The leveling pace felt balanced overall but accelerated significantly from levels 50 to 70. By the end, MrGM’s character had Item Level of 322 gear and nearly 8,000 Gold.
      MrGM turned on War Mode for an extra 10% XP and another 5% came from the Warband achievement (Five Warband Mentors: The War Within). For each Level 80 char, your alts will receive 5% extra XP, up to 25%.
