WoW Dragonflight Leveling Guide - How To Level Up Fast In Dragonflight?

To level faster in Dragonflight, the best thing you can do is have a good time while doing it. We will be recommending some routes that will give you a very fast leveling time that will also be easy to follow. There are paths and strategies can take that will mega-speed level you through the zones. There are amazing people that have compiled a lot of info for speed leveling if you all have the gold spare, all the heirlooms necessary, and so on. Now, let's check the best WoW Dragonflight leveling guide for 1-60 and 60-70.

Dragonflight Leveling Guide 1-10

The best way to level from 1 to 10 if you are not playing an Allied race or a hero class is through the Exile’s Reach zone. If you have a new account, you will automatically be sent their herb anyway, otherwise, you will get a choice for this once you are done creating your character. Not to mention Exile’s Reach is one of the most beautiful Warcraft zones. The questline is straightforward and if you finish all of the quests with no heirlooms or rested XP bonuses, you will get to level 10 before even finishing the end scenario. There's also a side secret quest where you do a little thing for a light spawn elemental and you get a move speed buff, definitely helpful.

Dragonflight Leveling Guide 10-60

From Level 10 to 60 in World of Warcraft Dragonflight, alliance and horde will have somewhat different routes but they will intersect at times.

1. Get the Dalaran Heartstone

First of all, we would highly recommend you go to chrome and select the legion timeline first. If you have done the intro scenario before, you will get an option to skip it and we would recommend you skip it. The reason for this is to get the Dalaran Hearthstone, as they will save you a whole bunch of time in traveling. You will use the Dalaran Hearthstone to quickly get back to your Capital City learn writing skills and buy more constables and use your normal Hearthstone after to get back to your questing hub. Without the Dalaran Hearthstone, you will spend a long time flying around having to unlock stuff like Ashran just to get a portal to Stormwind.

2. Kill All Rare

Kill all of the rares you can find while doing quests in the old world or the Cataclysm revamped zones whereas there give a lot of experience. depending on how you level it might even be worth it to go slightly out of your way to do so and this is where Silver Dragon comes in handy. If you are not having this addon, who knows how many rares were accidentally skipped? You can still clear rares in other zones that are not the old Cataclysm zones but they won't give you as much experience.

3. Learn Riding

The third WoW Dragonflight leveling tip is always to go back to Stormwind or Orgrimmar to get your riding skill. At level 10, you get the basic riding by default since you are already there. But at level 20, you get the fast-riding skill. At level 30, you will get flying and at level 40, you will unlock fast fly. If you can afford it and can fly in the relevant expansion, 100% go for it.

Dragonflight Leveling 1-60 Alliance Routes

Let's get into the actual route as an alliance character. You want to start questing in Redridge Mountains. If you had your map toy activated, you can simply fly from Stormwind there and to all other zones in this route. Once you are in Redridge, you will see a big question mark on your map which signals the main quest chain there. Pick that quest up and pick all the other quests in the town you can find. As a quick tip on your quest, you will get to the point where you have to mind control and edit to lift a big boulder. The map shows several locations where this is. You will keep questing until you reach the quest of prisoners of war. This quest is poopy pants and you'll have a lot of annoying mechanics to deal with stealth. If you are not smart, you will lose out on some precious time better spent elsewhere and that elsewhere is Duskwood.

Duskwood

You want to pick up all of the quests, you can find and finish the entire zone. Mounting will definitely help here and enough gold to give you the consumables to speed around would also be helpful.

Loch Modan

When you are done with Duskwood you want to quickly hop back to Stormwind and fly all the way to Loch Modan. If you have discounting map toy, you should have zero issues getting there. If not taking the deep run tram is also an option and might even be faster than flying. Finish the entire Loch Modan zone and you should be around level 30 if you also didn't use any XP bonuses and missed rares.

Warlords of Draener

After that, we want to start a new crummy time and that is Warlords of Draener. Some people would recommend legion but the questing is very stacked and with the zone buffs you will get a lot more benefits from leveling here. The Warlords of Draenor intro is super good for lots of XP. You would get here at about level 30 and you can get up to 3 levels of experience just from this with no rested XP to exploit as well.

Shadowmoon Valley

After you finish it, set up your Garrison and do all of the quests available. You'll reach a quest hub called Starfall Outpost and you will want to do all of the quests here toward the end of the question. You will need to kill some stuff right next to the blood thorn cave bonus objective. Do that objective as well also although treasures used to be the biggest source of XP they have been nerfed very heavily. So if you do happen to come across some on your way, they still award several mobs worth of XP. They're not bad but probably not ideal to go out of your way to find them. Plus you can find the occasional item in there that can boost your power so not worth completely ignoring.

Skip Ashran Questline

Before getting on the quest to move out to Ashran, you will probably want to transition. Going to Ashran is a lot of time-consuming back-and-forth zigzagging and talking to a lot of NPCs.

Talador

Move towards Talador after this making your way to the Town of Fort Rin. On your way, you'll get some rares and bonus objectives to complete Aruna's desolation. It's super easy and super quick, we wouldn't recommend stopping for all of the rares and treasures though since they are not what they used to be in terms of experience points. Once you get to the city you can build the artillery tower there. This is a quest part of the world story where you have building bonuses in different zones. This one in particular unlocks the Zangara bonus objective, another easy event for a fat chunk of XP.

Gorgrond

Your next goal is Gorgrond and you will walk there or apply if possible.

- In Gorgrond, you will get to the southern part where you will want to do two bonus objectives since they are on your way to the starting quest chain. "Tailthrasher’s Basin" and "Ruins of the First Bastion" are pretty quick to do. Depending on your level, you could spare some time for more objectives. If you are around this level doing more bonus objectives on your way to the middle part of the East Coast where your quest change starts will be beneficial in saving time off of the last part of the wad leveling that you will have to do which is a bit more tedious.

-Once you reach your starting point in the quest chain, follow it with all of the side quests.

- You can pick it up until you get to Highpass, which will be the main Hub in Gorgrond, and as with Talador you will construct something here.

-Savage bits seem to be the best thing to make. Either of the two buildings gives you a special ability, the pits let you summon dudes to fight with you once every 10 minutes. This can be used when you pull a whole bunch of packs together when doing multiple quests at the same time.

- As you quest you will also at one point get into the Crimson Fen zone, a big huge red mushroom place.

-Finish all the quests here and continue questing until the quests strike while the iron is hot is available.

-While also finishing the bonus objectives valley of destruction, mistcreep mire, and the Razerbloom.

Spires of Arak

Once you are done with all of this head into Spires of Arak and quest until you reach level 60. One tip here is that when you get to Southport construct the Stockton Brewery so you can get a 5-minute quick Hearthstone. You will zigzag a bit between quest hubs and having this helps speed things up. This is the last part of the questing and where it gets a bit tedious mostly because of all the zigzagging and less straightforward questing route. You'll get 60 sometime during the quest chain depending on whatever experience boosters you have used during this time.

Dragonflight Leveling 10-60 Horde Routes

Aside from the starting point, horde does most of the same things and literally murdered from the alliance counterpart. So we will quickly blast through this section of the WoW Dragonflight 10-60 leveling guide.

Silverpine Forest

-Horde will start in Silverpine Forest and you will want to quest until on your Majesty's Secret Service. This is an easy and straightforward area to keep blasting through. You'll get to a point where you are an old Dalaran crater going after human mages.

- Take some time and kill the Arcane Remnants. One of them will drop a quest item that will make you want to kill a whole bunch more. Since you are already here might as well do the “Ley Energy” quest as well.

-Another quest to make sure to get is when you are fighting the infantry with Godfrey next to you.

-One of the infantries will drop a quest item “I never forget a face” instead of XP. So make sure you kill the infantry even after they drop the battle plan. You are normally looking for until you also get this particular quest.

-Soon after this you will reach a quest called “On Her Majesty Secret Service” Stop here, this quest eats up a lot of time and it's particularly difficult to do with certain classes if you aren't decked in Big Boy gear.

Hillsbrad Fothills

After Silverpine, you want to go to Hillsbrad Fothills and make sure you finish the whole zone. Remember that there are a bunch of situations where you will be sent into a quest area to kill some stuff that can drop quest items for instant quest XP. Whenever you see a special name mob, tag it.

Wod Intro

Once you are done with Hillsbrad Fothills go back to Orgrimmar with your Dalaran Hearthstone and start the Warlords of Draenor chrome time. Don't skip the intro even if you do have the option to. The experience game is massive and it's like mega easy and quick to do. Although the checklist is similar to the Alliance side, you will differ here and there. After you finish your garrickson, stop just before being sent to Ashran. There's no need to do that since you're Dalaran Hearthstone gives you the means to get back to Orgrimmar.

Gorgrond

So instead head to Gorgrond first since it's more convenient on position same. As Alliance, you want to get the Tailthrasher’s Basin and Ruins of the First Bastion bonus objectives with anything else in your way clear at your own discretion.

Talador

After Gorgrond, you will walk down towards Spires of Arak but stop in Talador

for a bit. Here you want to go to Mor’gran’s and construct the Arsenal building and proceed to clear the objectives Mor’gran’s , Logworks, Zangarra, Aruuna's Desolation and Zorkra's Fall.

Spires of Arak

Doing all of these is going to get you the big chunk of easy XP from Talador at which point you will actually move down to Spires of Arak where you'll quest until you get to level 60.

Dragonflight Dracthyr Leveling Guide

If you want to play the new class spec combo, the first thing you need to do is to make sure that you already have a level 50 character on the Realm you want to play on and go create the new class which will start at level 58. Once that is done you will get your first two levels in the starring area for the Dracthyr. In the end, you'll be a bit into level 60. You won't need heirlooms for this since they will only work for one part of the quest phase, not really worth it.

Dragonflight 60-70 Leveling Guide

Dragonflight similar to Shadowlands in a way has gone back to the streamlined quest chain where you go zone by zone as it was designed instead of choosing your path. Once the Zeppelin takes you to the first area you're going to explore in Dragonflight the waking shores. you will start the storyline which will take you to the main city eventually. The shielded quests will represent the main storyline while the side quests won't have the same shield icon. Depending on the content you do and how you like to level, it may take you from 4 to 10 hours to get to level 70 by following the story.

Dragonflight 60-70 Leveling Tips

-If you want to get to the max in a decent amount of time, you can probably get everything done in about 5 hours. Blast to the storyline but don't forget that you will need side quests as well to get all the experience you need.

-As a side note, the questline and dungeons are not the only things granting you experience.

-If you choose to learn a crafting profession, you will also get quite a lot of experience from crafting recipes for the first time. The bonus is often more than you would get from a normal quest. Assuming you have the materials and or gold you need for all the crafts, you can get a level or two from them as well, or if you choose two crafting professions XP will double. Of course, this depends very much on the mat available and its price.

-The main storyline quests will not Grant enough XP to get you all the way to level 70, so you will have to either do side quests, bonus objectives, reputation side quests, dungeons, and or professions to get your character up to max level.

With all of this, you should be level 70. Congratulations, you made it here and you can enjoy the end game. Hope the Dragonflight 1-60 and 60-70 leveling tips were useful for you.
