So many great changes and tips. I was so hyped for wrath but unfortunately for me IRL has kept me away from azeroth. I haven't played since launch day. Looking forward to my schedule freeing up at the end of the month, I'm definitely be doing loremaster for those sweet sweet badges.

Minor but time saved adds up. When you set your hearth stone, your placement and direction is saved. Every time you hearth, that's where and how you flash in.

[@ericolsen2574]

No way I never realized this

[@Sideshow323]

I started Storm Peaks as soon as I hit 77 to start on the Sons of Hodir quest line. When I noticed that the quests were giving badges I stayed there and skipped all of ZD and SB. I did all the quests in SP and got about 40% of the way through Icecrown when I hit 80. I had 65 badges, enough to get my BIS trinket and PreBis neck. It was insane. I did 2 days of heroic world tours and finished up all of Icecrown the next days after, ended up with both tier pieces.

@F Nigs wym. I made the decision to lofe masted. Ive finished BT, HF, dragonblight and am just starting SB. Im a few bars into 78. Sounds like great progress.

[@addrenry784]

to correct the mistake at 4:00 onwards regarding the icecrown questlines. the ebon blade quest line is acquirable from that quest by taking the prequest at krasus landing instead (the npc who gives it will also be able to fly you there directly). the argent crusade prequests are simply not required for the ebon blade ones (and vice versa). this can be useful for gathering alts that want to be in a particular phasing by not completing prequests in certain places (SoH/argent crusade being prime examples) so that they can herb/mine those areas specifically, as once the quests are complete they stop spawning either types of node in those areas. also if you have cold winter flying but you dont have an epic flying mount and havent bought a regular flying mount either for some reason, u can also borrow one for free from an npc at K3 right next to the flying trainer there. dunno if this would actually help anyone, but it might, who knows.

[@meesy498]

The best thing you can do for your character in Wrath is to watch WillE videos 😉

[@Deraine]

Very timely video.

[@AnimationsN1]

lol, i got this trinket blindly while lvling. Still only level 51 but grinding hard. That trinket has come in handy a lot! I had no idea it was a new special quest, but i killed that elite for fun and got the quest item :)

[@timbert4672]

It is also worth noting that if you use the group finder as a tank or healer when levelling, you always get northrend adventuring supplies at the end of the run. More gold again. What you say is very true about those greens as they start at level 68 upwards, I had a level 68 enhancement shammy from TBC and I changed her to elemental with a full elemental set of greens from the auction house for less than 200g. At 70 there are also two green trinkets you can by off the auction house which have a nice bonus to stamina and hit which aren't unique equipped so you can stack them, a nice bonus. Also, that ghost child in Icecrown, have you noticed what his name is an anagram of?

[@MidgardGamesTV]

Yeah storm peaks and ice crown is super important. Too often do I see 78 and 79s questing in zul drak and grizzly hills but it’s important to unlock end game content in SP and IC. I go to storm peaks immediately at 77 to unlock sons of hodir and do the thorim quest line. That usually takes me to 78 at which point I’ll start the argent crusade in icecrown. Then at 79 I’ll start shadow vault and some odds and ends around northrend so that when I hit 80 everything is unlocked and I’m friendly with all factions to get tabards.

[@highsty9898]

I did the same lvling my first char, but i think it smart not to quest or do quest really few quests on Strom peaks and ice crown as they reward much more gold at mac lvl.

[@Krantos07]

Awesome tips!!!

[@Elfyja]

Great video WillE!

[@jonathanlovesadventure7838]

I went on vacation during launch. I will be catching up when I get back home for sure

[@dasati3168]

Doing storm peaks quests was so worth it levelling. At around 33 emblems and still level 79

[@MattSinz]

So there are enough badges to pick up from questing alone to get your Naxx 2 piece, nice.

[@BlackEyedkoala]

So happy I got Jeeves to drop while levelling

[@jamesbaggett3655]

I take it a step further and use the agi leather looms for plate classes

@@MrPorkyy it could be that i looked at the "from all sources" option and neglected to look at the faction quests =) ::edit:: after looking further it is indeed the case, in fact alliance gives more emblems than being horde Icecrown horde = 7, alliance = 19, storm peaks horde = 3, alliance = 15)

You can still do them even tho I’m already 80 yeah ? Cause I did a lot of dungeon grinding lol

[@matthewkeating6970]

Great vid

[@charlesc8291]

You can also buy bind to account honor tokens which give 2k honor per 30 Wintergrasp Shards. Sending that to an undergeared alts is a passive way to get them brutal gear for them to level with.

i had this quest when i was in my 50s still leveling so idk how other people are only just getting it now

That pillow quest is NOT new to Wrath lol. It was in Vanilla Classic too. I did it on all my alts that weren't engineering.

3:34 you're showing Badges of Justice stats here - they're the TBC badges.

[@connorbramlage2479]

Can’t wait to not leave icecrown next time I play for those badges

[@RUSH377]

I did 78-79 in Storm peaks. Hodir attunement will get you far to 79. Then went 79-80 in ice crown. By the time I hit 80 I got my trinket and off hand.

[@allenj.7256]

i think the whole pillow deal is for the drop from the castle to the docks in SW

[@ebossnz6838]

The pillow quest was tbc. I not leveled another in wrath and did that quest.

[@jessemiller5583]

just, a little tip here... you can't make Jeeves anyways until TOC is out in P3 and the schematic actually vendors for 12g and will continue to drop, rather than learning something you can't make for 6 months or so... I would vendor it and learn it closer to that date. you're probably make a few thousand gold by then if you run Heroic HOS/HOLS/Oculus fairly often as you will probably get one almost every 2 runs.

[@brandonboughton8555]

If you have characters acrossed wow 1 wow 2 wow 3 on same bnet you can still mail heirlooms to them and buy time for flying!

Wintergrasp is bugged for Oceanic Alliance so we haven't been getting Stone Keeper Shards or the Wintergrasp Buff. I wanna level my alts but this game breaking bug still isn't fixed. I've only been able to get shards from doing the daily quests (30 a day max) even if I get enough for an item theres no vendors to talk to.

[@XentheTek]

Jeeves took me 3 kills this time around, took hours originally

[@thebluelunarmonkey]

9:50 also, heirloom armor downgrades one step, so if the alt is a level 10 warrior, give them the plate shoulders/chest as it will downgrade to mail while the character is below level 40. Heirloom bonus caps at 20% so the ring doesn't make bonus xp 25 if you have chest and shoudlers.
