Undoubtedly, the best leveling method that available in WoW now is an effectively designed quests series where you can complete multiple quests at once whenever possible; this is an absolute requirement for a good alliance leveling guide. The other benefit of this system is you don’t need to wasting time farming for gold since gold, gears, and items are earned from quests rewards. Note that this is a guide for Alliance character; for Horde character, check Horde leveling guide or Joana’s Leveling Guide Review.
When you just created your character, you will get different quests based on your starter zone, which is vary for each race. In addition, you will also have different class quests; but after you arrive in Stormwind, all Alliance character will receive the same quests.
For early level, let’s use Night Elf as an example; these are the quests series that you need to accomplish in order:
1. The Balance of Nature from Conservator Ilthalaine.
2. The Woodland Protector from Melithar Staghelm.
3. Webwood Venom from Gilshalan Windwalker at Aldrassil.
4. A Good Friend from Dirania Silvershine in Teldrassil.
5. A Friend in Need from Dirania Silvershine.
6. Iverron’s Antidote from Dirania Silvershine.
7. The Balance of Nature from Conservator Ilthalaine.
8. Webwood Venom from Gilshalan Windwalker at Aldrassil.
9. Webwood Egg from Gilshalan Windwalker.
10. Tenaron’s Summons from Melithar Staghelm in Teldrassil.
11. Crown of the Earth from Tenaron Stormgrip at Aldrassil.
12. Iverron’s Antidote from Dirania Silvershine.
13. Crown of the Earth from Corithras Moonrage in Dolanaar.
14. In Favor of Elune from Shanda in Teldrassil.
15. Dolanaar Delivery from Porthannius in Teldrassil.
16. Zenn’s Bidding from Zenn Foulhoof outside of Dolanaar.
17. Denalan’s Earth from Syral Bladeleaf in Teldrassil.
18. A Troubling Breeze from Athridas Bearmantle in Teldrassil.
19. The Emerald Dreamcatcher from Tallonkai Swiftroot in Dolanaar.
20. Crown of the Earth from Tenaron Stormgrip at Aldrassil.
21. Recipe of the Kaldorei from Zarrin in Dolanaar.
22. Gnarlpine Corruption from Gaerolas Talvethren in Teldrassil.
23. Timberling Seeds from Denalan at Lake Al’Ameth.
24. Timberling Sprouts from Denalan.
Finishing those 24 quests should bring you to level 7. At level 12, you have the option to travel into different zones (example: Bloodmyst, Darkshore, and Westfall) and continue questing there or stay where you are; whatever your choice, you will reach Stormwind by keep following the quests chain. After that, you can follow the same alliance leveling guide regardless your races.
Note that just taking quest after quest is hardly sufficient; you must complete it in the most time efficient possible by finishing various tasks from different quests in one go whenever you have the chances. Now, if you have reached Stormwind, you can take these following quests:
1. A Watchful Eye from Theocritus in Elwynn Forest.
2. The Price of Shoes from Verner Osgood in Redridge Mountains.
3. Blackrock Menace from Marshal Marris at Lakeshire.
4. The Everstill Bridge from Foreman Oslow in Redridge Mountains.
5. Underbelly Scales from Verner Osgood in Redridge.
6. A Baying of Gnolls from Verner Osgood.
7. Selling Fish from Dockmaster Baren in Redridge Mountains.
8. Murloc Poachers from Dockmaster Baren.
9. Howling in the Hills from Verner Osgood in Lakeshire.
10. Raven Hill from Elaine Carevin in Duskwood.
11. Deliveries to Sven from Elaine Carevin.
12. Eight-Legged Menaces from Watcher Dodds in Duskwood.
13. Wolves at Our Heels from Lars at Sven’s Camp on the western border of Duskwood.
14. Supplies from Darkshire from Abercrombie in Duskwood.
15. The Night Watch from Commander Althea Ebonlocke in Duskwood.
Those 15 quests should bring you to level 22. With a good Alliance leveling guide, you can keep questing until you reach level 80 while earning sufficient gold, gears, items, and mounts in the way.
