I know it takes lot of time to write all guides and I am not rushing you, but could you just tell, what direction you propose after Grizzli Hills? I mean where to go? Should it be ZulDrak or Scholazar? I suppose you want to leave 2 zones for maximum level as you did with Outland, but could you just give some direction? :) <BR/>Thanks in Advance,<BR/>Eutanazja@BronzebeardEUverudandihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01569232518853777406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102180555401015665.post-42567038354206029152008-11-21T10:59:00.000+01:002008-11-21T10:59:00.000+01:00First i wanna say that i love your guide, they hav...First i wanna say that i love your guide, they have helped me a great deal but i do have some problems. I'm playing a DK and not lvling quite as fast as I'd like to. From 55-70 it all went really fast. BUt now im kinda struggling. Took me over 9 hours to get from 72 to 73 in Howling Fjord. Crowding wasn't really an issue, i did die a feve times to horde and i made a couple of mistakes but nothing rly to warrant such slow lving time. Could it be that Howling is much slower than borean?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13186276612613248999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102180555401015665.post-26303998499978531092008-11-21T08:47:00.000+01:002008-11-21T08:47:00.000+01:00Hey Tarcy.

I know what you mean about those talents, because I had exactly the same reaction as you when I saw them.<BR/><BR/>I was like "wow 20% haste" is crazy good. And same for necrosis, I believed 10% extra shadow damage on auto attacks was huge.<BR/><BR/>And actually those talents would be huge if they were part of the warrior or the rogue talent tree, because so much of their damage comes from white damage.<BR/><BR/>This isn't the case for DKs, white damage is a much smaller portion of a Death Knight's DPS than for rogues and warriors.<BR/><BR/>Which is why haste is actually a very poor stat for DKs, compared to War/rogs at least.<BR/><BR/>I don't have the numbers with me, but people did the math back then and Necrosis translated into a +0.8% dmg per point (that's less than desecration).<BR/><BR/>And with Icy Talons, the problem is that you have to get a whole bunch of crap talents to access it. And because haste isn't that much of a big deal for DKs, it's not worth the trouble and the Blood Talents I have you took actually bring more DPS altogether than what you'd get from speccing frost up to talons.<BR/><BR/>Hope this clears it up ;)Jamehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09818852948765501817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102180555401015665.post-55509051370522928432008-11-20T23:55:00.000+01:002008-11-20T23:55:00.000+01:00Don't get me wrong, I really like your guides and ...Don't get me wrong, I really like your guides and I would love to be able to follow them and level up as fast as I could. But sadly that's not the case because I spend too much time trying to find out where are all those locations you mention throughout the guide.<BR/><BR/>I know you were pissed with a comparison with Joana's guides a few posts back, so let me start by saying that I don't think you are copying anyone! But what I liked about Joana's guide was that I had the quest info on the left and the map with all the places I had to visit on the right. It was much easier to follow that way.<BR/><BR/>But well, it's like you already said, the second time I level up another toon, I'll use it and by then I'll know where's what.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Really hope that your project of making a in-game addon is in a 'very' near future ;)Miguelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08654144519385133891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102180555401015665.post-79255508002782592382008-11-20T22:45:00.000+01:002008-11-20T22:45:00.000+01:00I've been hoping for an ingame version of your gui...I've been hoping for an ingame version of your guides for a long time! If I had any idea on how to make addons I probably would have made them myselves just for my own benefit:-p (my alt and tab buttons are basicly faded to black by now).<BR/><BR/>Anyways I've reached 74 on my DK and it's going great! I've found some minor mistakes (ie some of your coords are made into smileys:-p) but as for accuracy it's very impressive, both at level 71 and 72 I dinged EXACTLY when the guide told me to. That was with no rested and no instance xp. I went into Nexus and UK after that so I dinged abit earlier for 73 and 74. <BR/><BR/>I don't think I've died since the dreaded lagspike of 59 (level 59 that is) :p.<BR/><BR/>I still can't get my head around some of your talent reccomendations though. Are you sure blood is superior to frost as the secondary tree? I guess it's a question of getting Icy Talons early or late at the expense of Rage of Rivendare. <BR/><BR/>And wouldn't unholy aura+maxing Necrosis make you level faster than desecration? 5% dmg doesnt seem much for five points, the slow effect is rarely if ever useful while leveling (different in PvP) ofc. I haven't done any DPS testing of different specs so I am very careful about being too sure, but I can't see the talents in blood being better than the sole benefit of Icy Talons (which you will have maxed before level 70 if you wait with Rage of Rivendare).<BR/><BR/>Pleugh...wall of text, sorry:-p Anyways, can't wait for the rest of your guides, keep it up!Dennethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07266872752067384537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102180555401015665.post-54054923587055633152008-11-20T22:31:00.000+01:002008-11-20T22:31:00.000+01:00Worry not, I will write a guide for SMV and the re...Worry not, I will write a guide for SMV and the rest of Netherstorm, I always said I would do it.<BR/><BR/>It's just been pushed back because of WotLK stuff getting the priority.<BR/><BR/>But it will be done eventually ;)Jamehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09818852948765501817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102180555401015665.post-64621450279319756852008-11-20T22:22:00.000+01:002008-11-20T22:22:00.000+01:00James, Amazing work!Just want to remind you, that...James, Amazing work!<BR/><BR/>Just want to remind you, that in spite of all the Northrend hubbub, there are still Netherstorm and Shadowmoon Valley quest guides to write.<BR/><BR/>I don't think of your guides as 'fastest way to level' (though they are, aside from guild-driven tag-the-mob-and-move-on powerleveling). I think of them as 'fastest way to fulfill the most amount of quests in the least amount of time.<BR/><BR/>In other words - don't forget that your guides are ideal for finishing the 'complete X number of quests in a particular region' achievements. I am trying to complete those achievements in Netherstorm and Shadowmoon Valley and your guides would sure come in handy for the task!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10644734934711680963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102180555401015665.post-41435873100792930602008-11-20T21:33:00.000+01:002008-11-20T21:33:00.000+01:00OMG, sooooo excited for an in-game addon.
