Powerleveling in World of Warcraft feels almost necessary after running one or two characters through quests which seem to always run you around in circles. You get bored, angry, lost, or frustrated. Powerleveling allows you to level your own character as quickly and efficiently as possible.

There are several ways to go about powerleveling a character, but a well-written guide is almost always the best choice. I suggest only getting an e-book or manual guide if you plan on printing it out. Your other option is alt-tabbing in the middle of your game and that’s just annoying. If you print it out this will make it slightly easier, but you will still be having to read over what you need to do next and hopefully remember it.

The next kind of guide is a video guide. These can be much more helpful as they at least show you what are looking for more vividly than a manual can. But this still contains the issue of having to look back and forth from the game to your videos. Without a second computer this gets very frustrating.

The last type of powerleveling guide which I highly recommend, is the in game guide. these guides run as add-ons in your game. They have arrows which point to where you need to go. They keep track of which quests you have and which ones you need. Your most efficient route will be automatically calculated for you by these. The best thing is, they can be auto-updating. This means that you don’t need to go in and change the settings for a different level or character class, it will figure it all out for you. This is definitely the best way to powerlevel any character. A manual cannot do that!
