experience and getting your character to the higher levels in a very short span of time. In World

are listed here work great and if you get into the habit of using them over time you will begin to

level very quickly.

One of the easiest ways to level your character is to get in with a group of higher level players.

You will receive more experience as they will be fighting higher level monsters than you would be

able to handle on your own. Simply befriend a player who is at a higher level than you and get

 +
invited into their group. This is one of the easiest and most common ways of leveling up quickly.
 +
 +
Sometimes a balanced group of two or three is much more efficient than soloing. This is
 +
 +
particularly true when a Quest requires killing a certain number of monsters. Simply quest with
 +
 +
groups when you feel it is necessary and fight solo whenever you feel you may be held back or
 +
 +
hindered by them. In other words, use your intuitive sense to decide which is most efficient for
 +

you at any given time.

Some people actually enjoy the mindless tedium of spending countless hours grinding away at mobs of monsters for experience. While others prefer to mix things up with the excitement of faster leveling and story telling that comes with Questing. You will earn more experience and level quicker in a shorter amount of gameplay time through Questing. It all depends upon how you like spending your time while playing World of Warcraft. However, if you are wanting to Power Level then Questing is the definitely the quicker route.
