Level Up In World Of Warcraft

By Jake Green

Videogaming is a relatively new industry with billions of dollars invested into it. The most prominent players are those who create the consoles and PCs to play the games upon. However more importantly are the gaming companies who create and sell the games for the different platforms. The biggest platform to date is the PC, and one of the biggest players is the company called Blizzard. The biggest potential for revenue and market is in the form of a game called an MMORPG, or massively multiplayer online role-playing game.

This genre of game has the highest potential market of almost any single product in existence. The game itself is massive, with hundreds of thousands of active players online at once on Blizzards servers playing across the globe in epic battles. The landscapes within the game are also huge, sometimes amounting to thousands of square miles. These miles are not dull either, housing varied amounts of animals and exotic plantlife.

World of Warcraft is one of the most successful videogames in existence today and in history. Commonly referred to as WoW, this game has over 10 million subscribers monthly, and Blizzard stands to make 150 million dollars in revenue each month! You have to wonder then, why is it that other companies do not produce similar products and reap in the cash? It all grinds down to, well, grinding!

Power leveling, or learning how to level up very quickly in a videogame is a important aspect of how well someone will enjoy the video game. In World of Warcraft many people use services and pay using real money in order to get the grinding levels out of the way so they can enjoy what is referred to as endgame material. However Blizzard has made sure to make this process as easy and as appealing as possible so what many people do is level themselves.

Leveling yourself is a daunting task, as you feel it will take forever to get to the higher levels, 60+. However with the newest patches wow has become a very easy game to level in, mentally speaking. There are a constant stream of relatively easy to do quests and tasks to perform that will give you experience and gold and sometimes rare items.

The two routes you may go when you decide you want some assistance in leveling involve either a guide or a service. While the service is the quickest and most sure way, it has the highest price tag. Guides however come at a relatively low price and while they do demand time, it is about the same amount of time as a service and you get the personal enjoyment of playing through the levels of the game. After all, it only takes a few weeks to get to 80, maybe one week if you are really good. Wow leveling guides were created to simplify the leveling process for the average newbie.

Take my suggestion, get a cheap wow leveling guide and don't waste your valuable time finding all the quests you need and simply follow the guide directions.
