What You Need to Dominate in Wrath of the Lich King

Wrath of the Lich King has been on the market for much of the past few months now and has become the single fastest selling PC game of all time and probably the most popular expansion to a PC game in history. It raised the bar in sequels, set up a beautiful landscape in a deep world and brought millions of new players into a game that had already boasted over 10 million. But, for those new players (and veterans alike) that exciting new content means one thing – they want to know how to dominate in it. Here comes the rule of a professional wow player and a well written wow leveling guide.

The Keys to Northrend

Northrend starts in either Borean Tundra or Howling Fjord and is an easy place to enjoy looking around. There are countless things to do, dozens of different places to check out and thousands of quests to keep you busy. But, if you want to dominate, you need to keep from being distracted. Start in Borean Tundra and start leveling up as fast as possible from Level 70 on. While some players have started Leveling up at level 68 here, I recommend staying in Outland until you hit Level 70. It might take more quests but they are much easier and the volume of quests and their ease in Netherstorm to reach Level 70 from 68 is almost laughable at this point. Having to run through both starting areas in Northend is only going to take extra time and frustrate you unnecessarily.

What About Those Dailies

The dailies in Northrend are an interesting addition and can be very tempting to start your leveling with, but you should ignore them up to Level 77 or so. Once you get your flying mount and can start unlocking the quest chains and dailies in Storm Peaks and Icecrown Glacier, you can start really speeding up the process, but until then, you are much better off just enjoying the scenery, playing through all those great new quests and ensuring you don’t get too far ahead of yourself.

Gold Making 101

Northrend is two things – very large and very expensive. With repairs costing upwards of 10-20 gold each time through, new skills costing more than 20 gold and your new mount options going as high as 15,000 gold (but it is a very nice looking Mammoth), you should be saving every coin you get. You’re going to get around 5,000 gold between 70 and 80 just from leveling, but you should return to your gathering ways as well. Make sure to get your gathering skill up to 450 as fast as possible, and pick up every node you find. Cobalt still sells for 50 gold a stack and top level herbs in Icecrown and Storm Peaks will net you as much as 100 gold a stack (and 400 gold a stack for Lotuses).
If you know your way around the area and are prepped for just about anything Northrend has to throw at you, you can hit Level 80, and make a ton of gold in record time.
