Leveling Addon Speed: Chapter 3
Here we go for another chapter of the adventures of Holyjame. This chapter will cover levels 20 to 30, while following the WoW-Pro Leveling Addon version of Boston's Alliance Leveling Guide (20-30).
At the end of the previous chapter , we were Level 20 with a /played of 9h 3min.
==Note== I had a little bit of rested bonus at the start of this chapter, for about 40% of level 20. This couldn't be avoided, despite the fact that I purposedly logged out outside of an inn, I still had rested bonus from not touching this character for a couple of weeks.
In any case, this is still less rested bonus than any normal player will get. So the results are still very accurate and are obtained under very handiccaping circumstances:
Now let's see how this section went:

In any case, this is still less rested bonus than any normal player will get. So the results are still very accurate and are obtained under very handiccaping circumstances:
- I remind you that this is done with NO rested bonus. I logged out my character outside of an inn on purpose. I only had about 40% of rested bonus at level 20. That's it.
- I'm leveling a Paladin, they aren't exactly the fastest levelers, as you all know.
- No twinking. I'm leveling on a new server, so this character isn't getting any financial help for his gear. You can check Holyjame's Armory Profile and you'll see he's only using greens from quest rewards or which dropped for me while leveling. The only exception is the weapon, which I bought from the AH. But this level 30 sword was quite a bargain and only cost me 1 gold.
- I'm leveling First Aid, simply because it's something I think every character should level. This probably slowed me down by a good 10 minutes.
- I died a couple of times once again, simply because I played like a reckless noob trying to take on camps of 5 mobs with no mana left and lay on hands on cooldown. Another 10 minutes wasted.
- I alt tabbed and fixed a couple of mistakes as I went. Another 10 minutes.
- I added the whole Paladins quest line in this chapter while doing the speed run. It made me waste another good 10 minutes because some quest turn ins were being annoying and not updating properly. However, I'm quite happy with the end result, I think the paladin quest chain is now incorporated beautifully and fits perfectly in the guide ;)
Now let's see how this section went:
Level 21
Level 23
Level 25
Level 27
Level 29
Level 30
Level 23
Level 25
Level 27
Level 29
Level 30
Total time /played at level 30: 19 hours
Average time per level from 20 to 30: 60 Minutes
I think it's safe to say that this is simply amazing, given the circumstances. And without all the time wasted since I started speed running this paladin, it could have been 17 hours to level 30. WITHOUT rested bonus and WITHOUT twinking. Let's just say I'm amazed at how good this addon is turning out to be :)
And that's not all of course. When I dinged level 30, I was far from being done with this guide. So I went until the end of it to see how much extra XP there is in this chapter:
Level 31Average time per level from 20 to 30: 60 Minutes

==Note== Level 30 to Level 31 only took 51 minutes. Quite impressive. I guess the 60% speed mount helped, but still impressive.
End of the Chapter
And that was the end of Boston's Alliance Leveling Guide (20-30). I ended up being level 31 and 74% EXP in. This means I'll be able to skip any eventual grinding session in the next chapters and generally have a very easy time completing quests, being 1 or 2 levels ahead :)
The next chapter will be interesting, because I'll finally start following my own guide: Jame's Alliance Leveling Guide (30-40) . I'll include a lot of revamps in that chapter and add extra quests you haven't seen in the paper version yet. The leveling speed should be quite something.
So stay tuned!
