Guide last updated: Updated for patch 2.3
Review last updated: 2008-05-20
These guides are written by Team iDemise, a multi-gaming team who excel at Counter-Strike, among other games. They have made a very bold claim with this guide, namely having the fastest 1-70 leveling time in the world (6 days and 5 hours). Frankly, it sounded exaggerated to me and they haven’t shown any screenshots or proof of their leveling time.
So I can’t tell you with certainty whether this guide is the fastest in the world or not (and I haven’t tried it myself), but I can tell you it’s a quality guide.
It’s made to be interactive inside the game, so you will be using an addon that shows you exactly where to go step-by-step, very much like Brian Kopp’s guide. The main difference is that the instructions are within the game itself, as opposed to in a guide that you have to reference, so you rarely have to use alt+tab to switch between the game and the guide. Let me show you what I mean:

As you can see, this guide doesn’t only tell you some coordinates and leaves it up to you to find them, no. It shows the location on the map and tells you EXACTLY what to do once you get there. Really, really neat.
There is also a HTML (web based) version that you can reference that tells you more about which zones to go to and links the quests to thottbot, so you’re never left clueless.
I’m going to have to try this guide myself before I can give you the final verdict, but it looks very good. As I said, I don’t know whether it’s the fastest guide in the world, but it will certainly be a great help for any player, whether you’re new to WoW or already have one or more level 70s.
They have informed me, though, that they’re working on an update to the map mod to make it even better (can’t wait to see what it is) and that the guide will be updated for any expansions and patches (free of charge I believe).
Definitely check this guide out if you’re looking for a fast way to level as alliance or horde.
