How did they go from 1-60ish already? Really, what is their secret? I understand mages being able to speedlevel by farming mobs at ridiculous rates. But everyone else, especially the slow guys like warrior and paladin, how are they doing this so fast? Most people are only mid 20s or 30s who play a lot. Is there some tactics these 60s are utilizing?
For some people, a week was plenty of time to take off work and no-life one character and one character only.
There isn’t a special tactic, maybe other than speedfarm and taking advantage of layers.
No-lifeing lol Many have like 5+ days of /played already.

Maybe they’re rocking that NEET lifestyle I keep hearing about.
AOE farming large packs as a party.
Questing, killing everything as they travel, running the same dungeon over and over for a specific gear piece.

Yeah I don’t get it either. I played 6 hours a day for 5 days and only hit 21. I’ve been playing the game pretty casually while doing professions, but still.

Folks share accounts. They also exploit layering to aoe farm in one spot.
At the end of the day you’re screwing yourself by rushing one character to 60. Without an alt to feed you’re hurting on professions and gold income.

I doubt these lvl 60s have max anything else. Like Fishing or Professions.

I just went really hard, planned my route months ahead, and ate properly to keep my energy up for 3 hour naps each night. It wasn’t easy by any means, but its doable if you take time off. I did it in 5 days 23 hours /played.

Not sure, but I’m playing this game like its the last MMORPG worth a crap that I’ll ever get to play. Back in 2004 I assumed there would be plenty more, but I was wrong. Not taking it for granted this time… I’m reading every quest and exploring every corner of the world. When I hit 60, there are 3 or 4 alts I want to do at least.

I have my copy of Joana’s Horde leveling guide from Vanilla. I’ve been using it -played 4 hrs a night Monday - Thursday ; binged the long weekend. I’m at 41.5 as of last night. It’s slowing down quite a bit and think it’ll still take a long while to get to 60.
My guild has enough high level people that we are able to dungeon grind for gear. I was server 11th for Alliance on Herod, so there are at least 10 other 60s to group with. My GM is a tank, so we have a tank and healer already.
Atm im grinding herbalism/alchemy any time we arent farming prebis. Got half my ony attune done yesterday.

They haz no life.
Most people looking for nostaliga in classic have a life to live outside of the game.
It’s not just about playing 16+ hours/day for 3 days straight to reach 60.

impressive. especially from a pally!! you’re healing? or are they letting you do damage? 
I want to heal. Playing ret is a massive chore to me lol. I’ve been healing since level 53ish.
Good at using the raid exploit I imagine
