I did 53-60 doing Thorium Point dailies. Less than 30 minutes was more than 50% of a level all the way and it gave me gold, embers and double reo the entire time
Yep BRE dailies is still probably the best thing to do to level and get quick XP, followed by dungeon grind/spam- though can be just as monotonous as the incursion grind Simon mentioned imo- but if you have friends or guildies willing to carry through some BRD clears, the XP is decent, and there's a good amount of dungeon quests to do along the way
@Ikthariusx think it's 54, could be 55. To clarify I was trying to say do incursions and dungeon grind until then, and once you can do BRE dailies, do them daily
I especially recommend the dragon whelps in Duskwood incursions, since they drop Flame Sacs for chili. Made a free 80g while leveling my rogue through there this week.
true, just leveling a second rogue and i tried ashenvale quests expecting to get like 1 level up at least but doing all quests gave me like 30% while killing the mobs for these quests gave me more
I have a lvl 30 Rogue and Planning going from retail back to sod. Is lvling via questing a good pick atm in sod ? Can someone pls give me some good advice what i should be doing while lvling ❤
Grind Incursions and also hit the old raids like BFD or Gnomer as a pug quick blast every 3 days for huge boss exp per kill, it's 150% exp so even just dense quest hubs where you can bang out a couple in the same area are good tbh - Also have things like SM dungeon spam if you can get a group around those low 30's and just pump till 42 or so
As a meta lock I've basically only solo'd dungeons since deadmines lol, it makes levelling insanely fast around 25 minutes per level if you can get into a good groove and its completely uninterrupted since its instanced. It genuinely feels like im cheating
I was soloing the harpy boss on my lock for 20k per kill nonrested until it tapered off to 15k above like lvl 57. They nerfed it inlast hoffix but I went from 50-60 in a few hours
A few weeks back, I saw a level 60 just keep killing her again and again, wouldn't even let me get a tag so I could do the quest (I'm on a pve server), was super annoying. Why would a level 60 keep killing the harpy boss if they don't need exp, does it have an increased loot drop chance of something? Or do you think they had a lower level party member closeby they were giving exp too maybe? That's my only other guess.
Hey! You can pop Elixir of the Mongoose and then Elixir of Greater Agility for 25 more Agi and both stack if you pop mongoose first. It only work in sod with this elixir I tried every other elixir or potion and dont work like these 2
Hey Simon! Like your videos! About your weak aura when I put it in like you do in your video it doesn’t come up in the middle as it does when you do it
It is better than dungeons, and you don’t need super good gear. The elites will be tougher, of course, but very doable. If you’re a rogue, dual crusader enchants really helps with the self healing and extra damage
Even if it's a fresh character with no gold from a main, you should be just fine with auction house greens. If you can get your hands on a weapon from one of the leveling raids, so much the better. Use cheap consumables, stay fully buffed, and you'll coast through mobs
Try this on my 53 crap gear hunter full rested xp, grind mobs on un'goro got around 160.000xp/h, grind mobs this way got 230.000xp/h. I think if you do quests/grinding you get more xp, quests a least is less boring.
Is this faster than dungeon grinding as a tank with insta queues? Minus travel time of course. I just enjoy getting loot and gold at the same time more.
If theres a video posted than its already too late. Theyve gotten their use out of it and are sharing after theyre done with it now too many people know.
You could probably still do a few levels in Duskwood, but its starting to be a bit too low for you. Once you get 39 or 40, you can move into Ashenvale incursion all the way to 50, then Feralas or Hinterlands all the way to 60. There will be a bit of a gap in the 35-40 range where there isn't a nightmare incursion available that is appropriate level for you.
Some videos… shouldn’t be made. I leveled two alts from 50-60 just farming the Harpy elite boss. She gave 20-30k XP per kill and spawned every 3 mins. Sadly, the boss xp was nerfed
Hey Simonize, As a former league of legends player i started playing world of warcraft back in february with a goal in mind of making an epic world of warcraft series, i was wondering if you would be open to have a little collaberation with perhaps some cameo voice lines here and there? Cheers
prolly not doable on warrior tho. They practially nerfed solo warrior content to be even worse than it already was in vanilla since mobs are scaled so hard and warrior, not in raid setting, hasnt been changed much. Even with the runes you still only do slightly more damage. :p
@@manoqueenz the problem isn't in raids. I'm saying that solo content on warrior even with raid gear is just worse that it was in vanilla. Trying anything in a dungeon solo is harder than it was in vanilla and I'm just guessing that these elites in the video are no exception
yeah then i immediately followed that by explanation - 30 minute level with buffs into 40 minute level without buffs at a higher level which you would already expect to take slightly longer, and explain how world buffs dont help you move to each enemy faster which is a good portion of the time spent.
inb4 this is nerfed again lol Oh well I already got 4 chars to 60 doing this method. If you're used to Korean MMO leveling grinding is pretty chill tbh, just throw on some music or a show and pew pew
You know why no one is talking about it. Cause no one is playing this mode. This is lamer than retail. No purpose or point. Last time I checked 1.2k people were playing. LOL its dead.
@@Test-vt9wlmegaservers just make sense with no cross server stuff going on cata you can just dungeon finder and it’s crossrealm it makes sense, I have 3 raid teams on Crusader strike going so there’s plenty of people lol
90,000 active raiders every month, just stop lying there’s multiple open sources you can check for cata classic era and SOD, 90,000 UNIQUE raiders every month is easily enough. Cata only has 200K so.
Grinding is by far my favorite way to level (so chill, so relaxing) - I'm excited to try this out returning to SOD. Great vid +1
still works in NOV 2024. cheers mate. huge help. The nightmare mobs are viable to 51 if feralas is riddled with bodies of ur fellow faction members!
I did 53-60 doing Thorium Point dailies. Less than 30 minutes was more than 50% of a level all the way and it gave me gold, embers and double reo the entire time
depending how crowded and how much pvp, if there is low traffic its worth doing the BRE dailies 50-60
Yep BRE dailies is still probably the best thing to do to level and get quick XP, followed by dungeon grind/spam- though can be just as monotonous as the incursion grind Simon mentioned imo- but if you have friends or guildies willing to carry through some BRD clears, the XP is decent, and there's a good amount of dungeon quests to do along the way
you can’t do them until 55 you’re both capping
@@Ikthariusx yes u can ,i did it on 53 with my feral

Legit awesome video made 50-60 leveling a breeze ! tyty

Thank you so much we’ll get started right away

so what to do after the duskwood mobs stop yielding xp? so 35+
Love your videos man! We need a back stab guide :)
Hey! You can pop Elixir of the Mongoose and then Elixir of Greater Agility for 25 more Agi and both stack if you pop mongoose first. It only work in sod with this elixir I tried every other elixir or potion and dont work like these 2
When is best to stop duskwood and start ashenvale?
yes
Hey Simon! Like your videos! About your weak aura when I put it in like you do in your video it doesn’t come up in the middle as it does when you do it
So the same level mobs here make more XP than random mobs in the world? Anyone try killing same-level mobs and see what the exact difference is?
do you need good gear to do this? I see there are some elite mobs. and is this better than dungeon exp farming?
It is better than dungeons, and you don’t need super good gear. The elites will be tougher, of course, but very doable.

@@yvanauchterloni5923 what daggers tho
HI. Simonize can u deal build on sword rogue for farming dungeons. thx
what about gold and items drop?
I love your hats
Does this still work?
how will I feel at lvl 35 on a rogue or 35 paladin on ashenvale incursions 40?
probably not good
@@SimonizeShow What would you advise between 37 and 40 then?
@thebalfrog1207 just hit STV or Alterac Mountains for a few levels
Does this wortk for classic?
no, there is no emerald incursions in classic.
"moving between the mobs and worldbuffs don't make you do that any faster"?
what about ZG buff?
was not available at the time this video was posted
@@SimonizeShow boon of blackfathom...
Still doable? I couldn't get into duskwood last week
How do you get so many world buffs?
he go and grab the buffs.
Do you get rep too?
Your discord link doesn't work. Make a video about rogue saber slash PVP! Now that I had to swap i feel like im doing something wrong,
please read the video description for help with discord
hell yes dude
Been doing this since I watched you on stream doing it🤣
much wow great vid
Try this on my 53 crap gear hunter full rested xp, grind mobs on un'goro got around 160.000xp/h, grind mobs this way got 230.000xp/h. I think if you do quests/grinding you get more xp, quests a least is less boring.

this is sod what queues are you talking about lol?
lol...
Cannot think of something more miserable than incursions
In before this gets fixed . Time to level my warlock
If theres a video posted than its already too late. Theyve gotten their use out of it and are sharing after theyre done with it now too many people know.
I’m level 32 on my alt where/what do you suggest?
You could probably still do a few levels in Duskwood, but its starting to be a bit too low for you. Once you get 39 or 40, you can move into Ashenvale incursion all the way to 50, then Feralas or Hinterlands all the way to 60.

@@SimonizeShow thanks for the tip! gonna dust off my rogue (30) and see if I can power him up and see if I want to change mains :)
pay for SM boosts until 39-40
Still Works or nerfed?
Now everyone is going to be talking about it 😂
Some videos… shouldn’t be made.
I leveled two alts from 50-60 just farming the Harpy elite boss. She gave 20-30k XP per kill and spawned every 3 mins.
Sadly, the boss xp was nerfed
Isn't elite mobs also nerf by 50% ?
Just bosses
nice
Im leaving work now and am staying in feralas until im 60 ty great stuff

prolly not doable on warrior tho.
They practially nerfed solo warrior content to be even worse than it already was in vanilla since mobs are scaled so hard and warrior, not in raid setting, hasnt been changed much. Even with the runes you still only do slightly more damage. :p
Warriors are doing TBC level of damage. You must be playing a runeless challenge or something

Lol I can't believe he actually said that the world buffs didn't matter that much and is on a physical dps. The stones it takes to say that!
yeah then i immediately followed that by explanation - 30 minute level with buffs into 40 minute level without buffs at a higher level which you would already expect to take slightly longer, and explain how world buffs dont help you move to each enemy faster which is a good portion of the time spent.
Haters gonna hate!
or here me out level 40-48 in a hour killing the demon boss in the incursuion with him giving 30k plus exp a kill
Pretty sure this was nerfed
@@dany91307 it was lol
I wonder if this is still the best way now that the reduced incursion mob XP by 50% this past week
that was only the bosses, not the regular mobs. it had no effect on this leveling method.
@@SimonizeShowoh sweet!
inb4 this is nerfed again lol Oh well I already got 4 chars to 60 doing this method. If you're used to Korean MMO leveling grinding is pretty chill tbh, just throw on some music or a show and pew pew
Yea easy 2 levels doing the incursions and the mobs xp
The fastest leveling method is buying boosts
this is literally faster than the advertised experience per hour rates for boosters on my server
Does anyone still play SoD……. That shit tanked so hard….
People are even watching other people play SoD on youtube.
Ive got 6 60s already, Might try this with my lvl 53
You know why no one is talking about it. Cause no one is playing this mode. This is lamer than retail. No purpose or point. Last time I checked 1.2k people were playing. LOL its dead.
cant be more dead than shitbag retail
