Do ya think

People will be in such a hurry to get to max level and do it all before everyone else and then get bored too fast because nothing to do?

Of course, but I don’t care about what other players do. I’m gonna go my own speed and hit 60 when I get there.

Might happen. They’ll probably just spend a week working on that muscle car that’s been sitting in the garage for like 15 years, then next week a bunch of new 60’s will be around and they can actually raid.

Assuming that person isn’t big on farming etc.

I plan on having a 60 somewhat fast, but I’ll just farm or do dungeons with the couple other people who hit 60 quickly as I’m not expecting to be first to 60.

I’m also going to have an alt that I take my time on.

When I hit 60 pretty fast, I’ll be farming for gold and leveling some alts. I would also like to be able and boost people through deadmines as soon as possible.

Nope. It’s my sandbox. I’ll build my pyramids how I want to. You can too!

Yea I love twinking my warrior out and getting the best possible BOP gear at all my level brackets. I’ll do the same instances until I get those blue pieces in each slot ensuring a slow, steady, and comfortable leveling experience. This also motivates me to level my blacksmithing and mining to assist in the gearing process.

I always level my professions when I level a character. Slows things down, but when I hit cap, I’m close to cap on them too.

Yeah imma go slow too but was just wondering how fast people are gonna get burnt out then come here and cry for a new patch or expac ya know?

Well you know what those few 60’s can add each other to their friends lists and go farm fire resist gear from BRD

Going slow myself; I’ll enjoy reading the quest text again! Also gotta keep those professions going along with me, only problem is picking them…

I think the more likely complaints we’re going to get around here is people crying about all the inconveniences, class balance, or slow leveling.

We already have had a fair amount of people complaining about hybrid DPS in raids.

If you’re the kind of person that’s going to be hitting 60 before there is a decent number of 60s, odds are you already know what you’re getting into because that’s going to require having a good questing route laid out.

Absolutely, that’s when I think this game’s true purpose will be revealed. Casual leveling.

No, who cares, blah blah blah, this forum is so sad these days.

With a player-base this large, it’s not a matter of if, but of ā€˜how many.’

Like Thundertotem said, I will eagerly level up, but not to race; it will be at my pace, and/or the pace of my brother’s who I’ll likely play with.

Sounds like a personal problem.

Some will. They don’t really matter to my experience, though. They’ll be 60 before I even play, and they’ll be gone from any content long before I get to it.

Seriously, this is nothing new and it’s not specific to WOW or WOW Classic. Way back when FF8 first hit the U.S., I played it, as did one brother and one half-brother. The half-brother barreled through, skipping side quests and anything he didn’t want to do. He ā€œfinishedā€ it in some ridiculously short 30 hours and went looking for something else to play. The brother spent absurd amounts of time leveling, running in circles just to gain XP and loot, a crazy 160+ hours and not even getting to the end. I was somewhere between, rambling around doing all sorts of side quests, sometimes pushing forward story, sometimes running in circles to level up so I could deal with a boss, and spent around 80 hours before getting to the final bosses for the first time. All of those are valid playstyles. The game was fine as it was, and didn’t need to add more to appease the half-brother who finished fast.

Classic is an old school mmo, you play the long game. There’s plenty to do even if you’re the only 60 on the server.

Some people will rush. But they can’t do it all right away, because content will be staggered.

Nothing to do for early 60s?

Farming gold for 100% speed riding. Farming BiS raid gear. Farming fire resist gear. Getting all of your bags. Crafting recipes that only drop off rares in dungeons. Getting attuned for raids (if those quests are in the game). Seal of ascension for UBRS.

Frankly anyone who has nothing to do at 60 isn’t even trying, whether there are a lot of other 60s yet or not.
