Tips to level faster

R

Rested experience

Logging out in an inn or a capital builds up rest, which doubles the experience from enemies until it runs out. It is the same Classic mechanic as always.

L

Legacy: Well Rested

Legacy gives 16 points per character at launch. Well Rested, in those trees, increases rested experience. Worth a look before you start.

C

Camping

The Cooking Fire creates a camp with vendors, repairs and profession benches, and other players can craft you up to 3 items that grant one-hour buffs. Fewer trips back to town.

D

Dungeon groups

There is no Dungeon Finder announced, so groups are formed by hand. A guild or a fixed leveling group makes the difference, especially in the new dungeons.

N

No level scaling

Forever does not scale zones to your level: if a zone runs dry, move to the next one in the bracket instead of squeezing it.

C

Crafted food and mount

Crafted food gives a small experience bonus, and your mount already includes the riding skill. There are no flying mounts.

Where the data comes from

Level ranges come from our zone atlas (the client does not ship them yet). Each zone's faction comes from the beta client's AreaTable, flight masters from TaxiNodes and ship routes from our atlas. Dungeons and their levels come from our dungeon list. The zone order follows the well-known Classic leveling path, adapted to Forever's new zones; we never invent Forever quests or numbers.
