Project Lore

I wonder when people are going to realize the ride often is even more important than the destination. The high instances/raids isn't and should be the biggest part of the game. The game has an awesome storyline with often cool and/or funny quest-storylines (though yeah, not all are that great to experience >.> ). Also the world and his critters/mobs/areas/whatever is quite interesting and teaming up with people is often quite an enjoyable thing too. If you can't see that and are only focused on having better gear than anyone else, then you miss the whole point of the game. And yes, it's just a GAME! Having the best of the best gear means absolutely nothing (other than that you're an addict). And what if Blizzard decides to stop with WoW? Then you got the best of the best gear and the highest level on a character that does not even really exist, without ever having had experienced the true experience of the game.
See it as riding with a car and riding with a bycicle to somewhere. Riding the car may be fast, but by bike you will see/hear/smell a whole lot more. You will notice a lot more things. Things that makes the whole trip to and back a whoooooole lot more enjoyable...

I still love the "no life" comments I hear all the time. We've held contests for first to 70, and now 80, so maybe that was their goal. Hell we put a top of the line computer as the prize this time.

Obviously this was a group effort, because the amount of experience required is absolutely ridiculous.

I really hope someone on this site starts to look at the people who always yell out "Well they have no life!" every time someone does something better than the rest. And I swear, if they say "You need to have a girlfriend/sex" my comment is gonna be longer than this one. I can see the headline already... "So what do YOU call a life?".

2c deposited, but I ninja'd 3g. Take care.

I completely agree with those who say enjoy the journey. The old addage getting there is half the fun applies here but should be modified, IMO, to getting there is TWICE the fun. To Virago, I am am bike rider myself and agree totally with the comparison. Its been two years and my main is a lvl 58 gnome demonology warlock. I will continue to enjoy the ride and have no plans of reaching the end soon.

I decided to create and level a DK instead of leveling my 70s, im like 64 now but the highest DK is about 74/75 and we have 2 80s warrior and rogue on my server

well hey guys i got tired of my warrior and thought hey why not try a new class insted of quiting altogether so i took the chance and leveled a death knight my name is ghray and im 59 and getting 60 tomoz im really loving the DK and the talents are sick. hey what lv are your DK's guys? id love to no. also what do you think is the best talent tree to go for when leveling a DK hope you can answer my question

I think most of the level 80 may be Beta tester and know all the questes

Pfft, I'm lvl 69... and I'm not rushing at all. I'd rather enjoy my way there, and look at the work put into it; rather than seeing how fast I can get thru so much content.

Level 79, just dinged there yesterday.

I've gotten quite 'sick' with a 'bad case of the flu' on thursday and played through day and night. Gone quite crazy over this. Anyway, once I hit 80 im going to neglect my alts in favor of a death knight...

Can't wait!

Much too precipitaded in my opinion, you don't have the time to enjoy the game, what do you do next? Raids? (how if most are trying to lvl up), so you'll kill some lvl 70?

Much too addicted in my opinion.

Im on nagrand server. 'Tulaisdaroug' i keep logging in and seeing:

Nagrand is full
Position in Queue: 986
Estimated Time: 113m

Sigh. I hope it's not like this for too long. :(

Anyways i'm not gunna rush to 80. Too much fun leveling with all the new quests and zones and everything :) No point rushing to 80 i think

I'm so busy with all the other games I haven't even opened my Wrath of the Lich King yet -_-'

Hehe its funny to me .People who make this game are hardcore raiders and they ban now hardcore raiders )
Yes if you got lvl 80 in 1-2 days You using your guild to lvl you up.I don't like people like that, but comon its not cheating and Blizz devs know that .We all know to be a UBER guild you goin to cheat every time you can.Faster we kill boss A faster we mowe to boss B,All hardcore guilds use that system .Its just stay in guild.But people who made this game shoud know better .>Hello lvl 80 I am sorry but we made this game we know how this game works but some people might get jelous so we goin to ban you.Have a good day..<

On my server (anachronos) a warrior was first lvl 80. On firday night everbody did get a message of realm first lvl 80 realm first lvl 80 warrior and first lvl 80 orc. at myself im now lvl 73 and half a way to 74 im not power lvling but also not slack lvling. I dont do instances becuase i want to hold them for heroic and im not leaving a zone without done every quest. Im now questing in dragonblight got every quest exept 4 quests for nexus done in borean.

This guy has copied the name of a Blood elf Warlock on the Alleria Server (well he used to be a Warlock, now he is a Death Knight). This guys is well known for his youtube videos such as "Just Loot It", "Assassinate" and "Pretty Fly for a Draenei", he is also known for his work at Mad-Cow Productions.

I can understand if this person took the name because it wasn't taken on his server but copying the class as well, did this person just want to be the Anti-Nyhm? (Nyhm is also known as Phrog801).

I apologise for the severity of my last post, it was uncalled for, but I do agree with a couple of you.

Levelling to 80 that fast is ruining the gaming experience for yourself, but if it was his/her choice to play like that then that is his/her own fault, None of us can criticise him/her for playing the way he/she wants to play.

I was playing yesterday and got the alert: Realm First Level 80! Everyone went crazy on the chat channels, it was hilarious. But indeed, if you are already level 80. You have nothing to contribute to society in real life. Still, that is impressive.

Well now its the end of the weekend and we got a lot of 80s on Bloodhoof EU..
At 2200 Paris time we had a lvl 77 DK and have no clue how he did it..
IM more into checking things out and trying the new bgs. Am 74 myself now and im very very exited about Strand of the Anchients and Im confident that Zand would love it too. maybe it can get him to pvp now :P Ive been playing a lot this weekend but also slept 10 hours every night (I like my sleep) so I could have been 77 or 78 if I had only slept 6 hours like I do monday to thursday but come on get a life and go out to a drink or have fun with your friends instead of powerlvling to 80 in 2 days. Every time some1 dinged 80 on my realm every1 was like "omg what a no-lifer" and "they must not sleep at all"
I got my copy 9 min after release and I have been playing a lot this weekend but I did go out friday with my friends so I wouldnt sit infront of the pc like those ppl. But if thats what they want its fine by me as long as they dont blame any1 else on losing RL friends when they stop playing wow.

I just got my deathknight to level 69 - and i'm loving the northrend experience, it loosk awesome, the quests are cool and have different things to do instead of a) slay or b) go collect, so i think now i'm in northrend i'll be taking my time now to enjoy the game.

Roi - Lvl 57 - Nazgrel
Pastry - Lvl 52 - Nazgrel

Now, I've had the game since Feb. 23rd 06, played Roi since May of that year till December, acc. got canceled for 8 months, and I'm finally back.
I don't have the x-Pac to WotLK.
Now my opinion on the lvl 80 thing? Heh. What's the point? I mean, sure, we all say "Oh I'd rather enjoy the game than to be lvl 80". But If we all had the chance and the energy to do such a feat (don't forget the time and patience), I'm sure we'd attempt to pull of 'Realm First! Level 80!' or whatever. I'm sure if many the many people commenting "negatively" were lvl 80, it'd be a different story.
On the other hand, you can definitely say that I'm still a whole X-Pac worth of content behind, and be keeping a steady pace of 1/2 a lvl a day from here on out. By the time the actual Arthas, the Lich King boss is released, I should be around lvl 75. By the time SK Gaming manages to beat him? Level 75 1/2 xD

Whoa whoa whoa, scratch that. I played this game waaaaay longer than that xD

dude,on day two a guild on my server already had a 5 man 80 team..

LoL we only got 1 lv 74 hunter in our guild... every1 else is lv 73 or under including mi main who is only lv 71, i must not go on wow alot... i thought i did :S

My character atm LVL74 but 2 day I will reach LVL75 yey!!

Just 5 LVL till the immortality khmm... for a priest deffo not... :D

Lywenner LVL 74 Dranei Priest

P.s. U rock Project Lore!!!!

like 5 people dinged lvl 80 all in 1 night on my server :( im only halfway 75 so unfair.

Undermine-

We had some ding 80 on our server the same day this guy did but just much later in the day.

I am at 71, almost 72, which isn't that far, however... I am a Deathknight so I feel i progressed well so far but 70-80 will obviously go much slower then the previous levels have. I predict i will be 80 in about another week or two. All depends on how frustrated i get with the queue every night trying to log in.
