Welcome to the Alliance Northrend Leveling Guide. This guide will take you from level 70 to level 80 throughout the various zones in Northrend. The guide is broken up into levels and zone sections. If you’re starting at level 70 then the best place to start is the first page. For those of you joining at a different level than seventy or if you’re seeking some quest/area help then use the below table of contents to find your way about.

This guide makes a couple of assumptions, they are as follows. The first is that you’re level 70. If you’re not level 70 then stay in Outland! There are a lot of quests in Outland that give good experience up to and past level 70. There is no really good reason to start Northrend until 70. The second assumption is that you had no problem getting to level 70 and that you know how basic quest mechanics work. The next assumption is that you not avoid all creatures when questing. If something comes remotely close to getting in your way, engage and kill it. You need to kill as much as possible to gain experience while leveling.

The last assumption is that you have rested experience. Rested experience is worth a ton at higher levels, and as such you should always park at an Inn when you log off. Many players go so far as leveling 2 characters at a time so that they can always have rested experience. Play one character until the rested experience is used up, then switch to your other character.

As a small note, the guide is under construction with the recent launch of WotLK. Updates are coming frequently so be sure to check back often.

Instructions

Load up WoW and then load the guide up in your browser. This way you can either alt-tab between them, or if you have a dual monitor setup have WoW on one screen and this guide on the other.

This guide assumes that you will have a few simple add-ons to make your life easier. The first and most important is some sort of location mod. You can use any number of mods that will display your location, my favourite is the one included with Titan Panel, although there are many others including TomTom or Cartographer.

The second very useful mod is Quest Helper as it will display on you map and mini-map when you are near an objective of a quest. Sometimes you can get to the general location of a quest, but just not find the right item. Quest Helper highlights it on your map and lets you know what quest a creature or item is for.

If you wish to print the guide then be sure to turn off images to save paper, ink and the environment!.

We now have an instruction page that helps explain how to use the guide and gives some helpful advice on questing.
