The Ultimate WoW Leveling Guide Review

Let's start off with the main problem with both Joanas Horde Leveling guide and the Brian Kopp Alliance Guide. Both of these guides tend to view the world of warcraft through the vantage of one character type. Let's take Joanas Horde leveling guide as an example. The whole guide is based around being an Orc or Troll Hunter. Ok this is great if you want to play this character class but happens if I want to follow along the guide as it claims as say an Undead mage. Ok, here's what happens. If you want to follow along with Joanas Horde Leveling guide as an undead mage you would have to run all the way from the starting zone over to Brill, wait for the zeppelin to take you over to the other side of the world, if your lucky you won't have to wait but usually you'll be sitting here 10 minutes or so to hitch a ride. Then once over to where near Org is your still going to have to run all the way down to Durator. This whole journey could run you 30-45 minutes alone. This in my opinion lands up being a huge waste of time. Compare this to the guy that starts off as an Orc or Troll hunter at the same time as our undead mage and by the time you arrive down there our Orc Hunter is now at least level 5 or more, a huge disadvantage. The Brian Kopp Alliance guide is no different, it starts from the same assumed idea of class and race.
