Level 1 to 60 the Forever way.
Forever changed where your XP comes from: lower-level mobs pay less, dungeon kills pay little, and new bonuses stack. This guide shows how XP really works, how to keep every bonus running, and the route for both factions.

Questions
Is this just old leveling advice?
No. Forever changed the XP rules: lower-level mobs pay less, dungeon kills pay a fraction of what you'd expect, and new bonuses like Well Fed food, the Cozy Sleeping Bag and the Camp Tent stack. The guide is built around those rules.
Does it cover both factions and Skyborne?
Yes. There are separate Alliance and Horde routes from 1 to 30, a shared route from 30 to 60, and notes for the Skyborne start on Zephras Isle.
Why is 30–60 marked "Planned"?
The beta stopped at level 30, so nobody could test higher levels before launch. Those chapters use Blizzard's published level ranges, and the next edition will replace them with a tested route.
Will it be updated?
Yes. Buyers get every new edition free, sent to the email address they bought with.
Is this made by Blizzard?
No. It's an independent, unofficial guide, and it's not affiliated with or endorsed by Blizzard Entertainment.
