With the latest release of World of Warcraft, the highest level a player can get to is now 80. I’m sure, like me, you find the game very engaging if not addictive to play. However, it can get old seeing your competitors zoom to level 80 in no time. How are they doing this? With information of how others have done it. This information has been packaged into “Leveling Guides” and are distributed in the form of e-books. There are both horde leveling guide and alliance leveling guides.

In reading forums and conversing with other players, I found out about several guides. I used to play alliance and I found several good alliance guides out there. However, to make things interesting, 2 years ago I switched to playing horde. With starting over, this seemed like the perfect time to find a new guide to get my new horde character to level 70 (king lick release wasn’t out yet). This is when I discovered Joanas guide. The consensus in the wow community seems like this is THE horde leveling guide to have.

This guide is worth its weight in gold. With this guide I was able to level to 80 in a matter of 7 days of medium playing. The creator of the guide, Joana, inistially became known for his 4 day 20 hour run from 1 to 60. He continues to attempt to surpass his previous record. The guide is also constantly being updated. It was just recently updated for the wotlk release. It also includes a full In-Game Leveling Guide Mod. If you’re on the horde side, this is the only horde leveling guide to buy.
