Nostalrius Begins - Quality wow vanilla realm (1.12)

Gaining a level is starting to take 4 hours of play, and i'm only level 31. How do you guys stand the pvp during leveling? It's such a drag on your progress.

And will Nostalrius just please fucking open a PvE server already?

Either quest in a group, be smarter about where you quest (e.g avoiding zones like Stanglethorn Vale and Tanaris), or get good by being aware of your surroundings and always prepared in case of a gank.

Were would i quest besides Stranglethorn vale? Arathi Highlands and Desolace both seem rather sparse on quests.

But i actually did quest in both areas, and i was still subject to a lot of ganking, especially in Desolace for some reason.

You kind of just... Deal :/

Desolace is horrible for Alliance, most zones are as they seem to favor Horde.
If you get killed more than 2 times in 10 minutes, run to your corpse. Afk for 10, then res. that's about the best I can give ya' :l. I'm almost 40 and am not gonna give up now c:

But I can't fucking wait to come back to STV at 60 and gank all of those UD Rogues. Sweet justice c:

So what did you do? Level in stranglethorn vale or did you avoid it? Also how many hours did you take per level in your 30s?

I would really like to know whether i'm better off standing the ganking in Stranglethorn Vale or questing in other areas despite the sparsity of quests in those areas.

Oh it can't be THAT bad can it?

I died more in Desolace and Shimmering Flats than I did in STV. STV I got ganked a few times here and there, it really all depends on where you are in STV .

It took me 9.5 hours to go from 33 to 34 but I was online on the peak times. Peak times = more gank. :l
PS: 30 to 40 is hard for both factions because of PvP, once you get over that hump.. It's somewhat smooth sailing c:

find an isolated area (that is preferably close to a graveyard) and just grind until level60. if you're having to constantly compete with opposite fraction and even same faction for quest items/mobs its not worth the time. And then the added constant ganking makes it not worth the time. In all of my years of playing wow ive never had such a hard time doing quests and ive never been ganked so much. Its unblizzlike. So leveling by questing becomes a waste of time if your goal is to get to 60 as fast as possible.

when av is released which is soon, the ganking will probably die down a bit
