Thou Shall Use a Map-Mod
Map mods, such as cartographer, are an essential tool to help you navigate around the edge of that leveling funnel I talked about earlier.
Apart from the handy side effect of being able to see where your guild mates are, anywhere on the WoW map, Cartographer tells you exactly where your quests need to be completed, and where you go them from.
Essential for planning your route around the zone’s questing locales. Right?
Yes and no.
You see, while cartographer is an essential add-on, you’ll still find yourself wanting just that little more in the way of guidance. All the world’s top power levelers will tell you certain quests just aren’t worth your time, and this is where you’ll find cartographer falling down.
A great tool, but without a “leveling soul” to go with it.
So grab it, anyway, you’ll find it immensely useful, and you WILL improve your leveling speeds because of it. For instance, how many times have you had to alt tab out of your game to try & look up a quest on the Internet? That time alone will boost your leveling speeds, especially when you think back over 20, 30, or more than 40 levels.
The cartographer map mod – its an excellent time saver – and its free.
Getting back to that “leveling soul” comment, the best in game leveling map mod I’ve found so far is John “Zygor” Cook’s in-game leveling guide. Believe it or not John has managed to find a way to automate his map mod, which makes his guide like a souped up automatic cartographer that’s programmed to know exactly which quests to do first, second and third for the most efficient and fast leveling route possible.
In other words, it does all the hard work for you. Its the ultimate in laziness!
I like it!
