WoW Forever Leveling Guides
One guide per class: the spec that levels fastest with its talent order, every spell the trainer sells by level (read from the beta client), what Forever changed for the class, zone order for your faction, and which races fit. Pair it with the 27 starter builds for level 60, and the zone-by-zone routes: Alliance 1–30 · Horde 1–30.
WarriorLevel as Arms
Arms gives you Mortal Strike, Sweeping Strikes for two-mob pulls and Deep Wounds bleeds with a slow two-hander, which is the easiest way to level a Warrior.PaladinLevel as Retribution
Retribution turns Seal of Command procs and crit into kill speed while you keep the Paladin's heals, so downtime stays low.HunterLevel as Beast Mastery
Beast Mastery makes the pet tank everything.RogueLevel as Combat
Combat with Blade Flurry and Adrenaline Rush is the safest Rogue spec for questing: no positional moves, two-target cleave, big energy.PriestLevel as Shadow
Shadow is the only Priest spec that kills fast.ShamanLevel as Enhancement
Enhancement levels on Stormstrike, Flurry and Windfury Weapon.MageLevel as Frost
Frost gives Ice Block, Ice Barrier and Shatter so you can pull more and die less.WarlockLevel as Affliction
Affliction with a Voidwalker is the classic dot-and-drain leveling loop: Corruption, Siphon Life, Drain Life, never stop.DruidLevel as Feral Combat
Feral: bear until Cat Form at 20, then cat with Feral Charge, Shred and Rend and Tear.
