I think that HC should be more like deleveling 1 level per death. This is also painful but not as painful as going through noob zone quests over and over to play again.
HC is not IronMan…

HC is fine as it is at the moment, but in future they could do some interesting twists.
1 delevel isnt much of a punishment though. Going from character loss to -1 level is like death sentence to 1 week in jail.
Don’t die. Problem solved.

jail timeout is not fun. delevel gets bad as you die more. you run out of quests and forced to level in other ways. EQ had hell levels, delevel, and corpse runs. that is HC imo.
priest/paly rez should be in HC. i gave up on HC due to having to redo all the intro quests each time. i wouldnt mind if kill and chill could be an alternative to leveling but same old quests over and over is nuts.
Sounds like easycore and not hardcore.

atm it’s become boringcore.
I’m curious if you are dying in caves, hyperspawns or a little bit of both. I avoid caves until the mobs have either green letters in their name or grey. You don’t get a lot of xp from the green and none from the grey, but the quest turn in still gives decent xp.
Getting to level 60 is all about the journey. Do it wisely and do it safely. There is nothing wrong with over leveling for the next area. Grind on some mobs that are a few levels below you until you are two or three levels above the mobs that are in the next area you need to quest in.
You might find some nice gear to keep for yourself, alts or sell on the auction house. All of the greys you find, vendor them. The copper and silver from vendoring adds up quickly. If bag space is a problem, general goods vendors sell six slot bags for five silver each.

I got my illusion for the season so decided to try it out. Currently level 14 on my hunter and it has been far more engaging than I thought it would be considering the nature of hardcore. Crafted my first set of engi goggles and target dummys last night in preparation for westfall.

I know and did, but money is tight.
Are you being selective with your spell choices?
No. This whole challenge revolves around 1 life and that’s all. If you don’t like that, go play the normal version. You absolutely can because the normal classic is absolutely booming with players. Don’t fix what isn’t broken

And there it is. Someone that remembers how leveling use to be. People need to realize that they cant approach the open world the same way they do in retail. You are not killing packs anymore. You have to pick them off one at a time until you get more skills and power. Vanilla WOW was an endurance test, not a speed test.

hijacked my thread dude with tips and learn to play. redoing noob quest more than once is boring!
Stop pulling more than one mob at a time and clear the trash around named NPCs.
There’s no reason to die in the starter zones unless you’re trying to play like you’re in retail.
