Could you tell us a bit more about yourself ? </b><br /><img src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/icons/iwarlocks.gif" alt="" border="0" /> <b><span style="color: #9482CA;">Nymh</span></b>: I play a warlock named <a href="http://eu.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Drek%27thar&n=Nymh" target="_blank"><b>Nymh</b></a> on the french server Drek&#39;thar. I used to be the guild leader of Harmonie, a french top PvE guild who was among the first to kill Kil&#39;jaeden, but we eventually decided to merge with the 2nd guild of our server. The result is Genesis, which was originally an pre-BC high level guild. In real life I&#39;m 21 and currently employed, I took a few days of vacation for the release of the expansion. <br /><br /><b>MMO-Champion: You reached the max level 27 hours after the european servers went online, that&#39;s pretty fast even if you spend all your time leveling ... Could you tell us how you achieved that ? </b><br /><img src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/icons/iwarlocks.gif" alt="" border="0" /> <b><span style="color: #9482CA;">Nymh</span></b>: The idea first came up when I saw <a href="http://www.mmo-champion.com/index.php?topic=16919.0" target="_blank"><b>this post</b></a> from <a href="http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Turalyon&n=Jynxx" target="_blank"><b>Jynxx</b></a>. The idea looked nice and I decided to run a few tests on beta servers. It took about 3 hours to level from 78 to 79 and considering that it was one of the longest level, it seemed good enough to use this strategy to powerlevel at the release. <br /><br />The biggest problem was to find a spot with enough monsters to grind without too much downtime ... I spent some time on beta servers and eventually found the crypt in Drakil&#39;ji Ruins (Grizzly Hills), I think that&#39;s one of the only place in Wrath of the Lich King where monsters repop in about 30 seconds, mobs here are also neutral and it makes grinding a little safer. <br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/wotlk/zones/grizzlyhills_64.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/wotlk/zones/small/grizzlyhills_64.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a> <a href="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/wotlk/zones/grizzlyhills_65.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/wotlk/zones/small/grizzlyhills_65.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a> <a href="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/wotlk/zones/grizzlyhills_66.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/wotlk/zones/small/grizzlyhills_66.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a> <a href="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/wotlk/zones/grizzlyhills_67.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/wotlk/zones/small/grizzlyhills_67.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a></div><div align="center"><a href="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2008/november/drakiljinmap.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2008/november/drakiljinmap_small.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a></div><br />I also had to optimize my downtimes and decided to level with a healer out of party, <a href="http://eu.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Drek&#39;Thar&n=Pavelomm" target="_blank"><b>Pavelomm</b></a> was nice enough to spend the last 27 hours healing me without taking any XP and he obviously played a huge role in the process. <br /><br />When I reached level 76 I realized that my leveling speed was slightly lower than what I experienced in beta, I decided to change the template from <a href="http://www.mmo-champion.com/index.php?topic=16919.0" target="_blank"><b>the original post</b></a> and switched to something with 2 points in Shadow Mastery to make my DoTs stronger and the leveling a bit easier. (It usually takes 2 DoTs to kill a monster)<br /><br /><b>MMO-Champion: The first level 80 was supposed to be Darus, a paladin who did some powerleveling in instances with Athene and a few other people and eventually got suspended by Blizzard at level 79. (and reseted to level 70 a few hours later) Did you hear about him ?</b><br /><img src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/icons/iwarlocks.gif" alt="" border="0" /> <b><span style="color: #9482CA;">Nymh</span></b>: Yeah I had a few people monitoring other servers to give me updates about the situation here, I don&#39;t really know how Darus did that but I assume it will be hotfixed by Blizzard very soon. <br /><br /><b>MMO-Champion: Is there anyone you want to thanks ? </b><br /><img src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/icons/iwarlocks.gif" alt="" border="0" /> <b><span style="color: #9482CA;">Nymh</span></b>: Sure ! There are a bunch of people who helped a lot with my leveling. <br /><br /><ul style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0;"><li><a href="http://eu.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Drek&#39;Thar&n=Pavelomm" target="_blank"><b>Pavelomm</b></a> was nice enough to stay with me for the last 27 hours and managed to keep me alive for all this time!</li><li><a href="http://eu.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Drek&#39;Thar&n=Pratax" target="_blank"><b>Pratax</b></a> originally planned to level with me but couldn&#39;t be here due to last minute work obligations, he helped me a lot during beta when I was planning everything. </li><li><a href="http://eu.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Drek&#39;Thar&n=Ardanell" target="_blank"><b>Ardanell</b></a> / <a href="http://eu.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Drek&#39;Thar&n=Bro" target="_blank"><b>Bro</b></a> / <a href="http://eu.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Drek&#39;Thar&n=Zhazha" target="_blank"><b>Zhazha</b></a> were nice enough to run all the way to Grizzly Hills to teleport me to Ironforge and let me train my new spells without wasting too much time. </li><li>Coralie, who was nice enough to buy me the game 2 days ago! </li></ul><br />And of course, the whole <a href="http://www.guilde-genesis.org/" target="_blank"><b>Genesis</b></a> guild and all the players from Drek&#39;thar-EU!
