Joana's 70-80 WotLK Guide

JoanasWorld.com is here!  I made this guide for people who are tired of grinding levels, looking up how to do quests and trying to figure out the right ways to level up.  If you're confused as where you should be leveling at, then you have come to the right place.
 
 It's Here!
Joana's 70-80 WotLK Guide is now Available!  This guide goes along very well with my Famous 1-70 Leveling Guide!

My new guide is totally ready for the Wrath of the Lich King Expansion pack and Includes a full In-Game Leveling Guide Mod!  My new 70-80 Northrend guide is a fully functional step-by-step guide with all quests already linked to wowhead!  For those of you who have not bought it yet, please read on to learn more about who I am and what my guide is all about!  For those of you who already know who I am and want to get to know me even better, then you can go to my section here and venture with me on my journeys through the various servers I have played on!  Those of you interested in hearing about my latest projects I'm working on, you can sign up to my newsletter if you'd like.

UPDATE:  I am currently getting prepared to do 1-80 speed runs on new servers to see how fast it can be done!\

I have been playing in the WotLK beta for the past 5 months and got 4 characters to level 80 perfecting my questing route each time I went through it.  I have a very extensive understanding of Northrend now and have developed a full 70-80 horde leveling guide that you can use to quickly breeze right through Northrend with absolutely no confusion at all.

More info about me:

I either play a male character named Mancow or a female character named Joana. In the past I have been first to 60 now on 6 different servers, one of my goals with World of Warcraft is to get to the end level cap on new servers with the least amount of /played time possible, this means each time I level up through WoW I have been revising my routes in order to achieve a better /played time. So far my best time is 4 days 20 hours /played time to 60, this was done on the Jubei'Thos realm. I have this entire 4 day 20 hour run RECORDED, the whole thing is recorded and implemented into my 1-60 guide!

I was the first to 50 in the race to 50 leveling contest Blizzard held last year, here's a pic of the runners up when I hit 50:

Why do I level characters to get good /played times? Well, I am a speed runner, I have been doing speed runs through games my whole life, I am a dedicated gamer, and spend LOTS of my time finding the fastest ways to finish a game. I am most likely the fastest Power Leveler in World of Warcraft because of this, many may know me by now with all the servers I have played on, and have seen the results of me hitting 70 under a weeks span. That's right I can get to 70 under a week (playing less than 5 days of it), so I log out plenty to eat, sleep, and other RL things.  Take a look at typical screenshots of me leveling up on new servers, I get tell after tell all day long while leveling! (also note how far ahead I am from everybody on the /who list, usually when I hit 60, no one else has even hit 50 yet!)

Well guess what, I am now willing to share ALL my horde leveling strategies with the world, I have put together a FULL comprehensive guide that explains how to power level a horde character (more details on it below).

Why was my guide created?

My guide was created simply by the fact that I got tired of SO many people asking me how I am able to level so fast.  Since SO many people have asked this, I took it upon myself to create this website and show all my speed run accomplishments and of course the FULL 1-80 horde guide I have put together for you!  So if you want to learn my secrets and level as fast as me, then you can get my guide.

Do not buy Store Bought Guides!

Another reason why I decided to create my guide is because of how crummy other guides are out there.  If there is one important tip I can give you, that is not to buy store bought guides for World of Warcraft!  You have to understand that WoW changes all the time, new patches come out and makes things obsolete, if you buy a physical book, it will be outdated within months of the time it was published.  However if you buy my guide, you will be accessing it from a members area where I continuously keep it up to date ALL the time for FREE.  That's right there are NO monthly fees to my products, you pay only a small one time fee and you will always have access/updates to it.  Call me crazy but that is how good I treat my customers!

The forum post:

After hitting 60 on Jubei'Thos server in 4 days 20 hours /played time, I proceeded to make a post there (on the realm forums), although this has been awhile ago and the post is now dead, I'll post it here so you can see what I said:

1. Joana - 60 in 4 days 20 hours /played!   /played time to 60 is 4 days 20 hours over an 8 day span, so I logged out for 76 hours. Incase anybody is wondering who I really am, I usually go by a male character Mancow, or female character Joana, I race myself to 60 on new servers, trying to beat my last time continuously. Since so many people have asked me how I level so fast, I figured this time I will record my gameplay all the way through. So yep, I FRAPSED (recorded) the ENTIRE thing! As soon as I get done editing the whole movie, I will then be able to distribute it. I plan on putting voice commentaries in it, speed up any boring parts, I figure I can bring 115 hours of gameplay down to a 35 hour movie, obviously you don’t have to watch the whole thing, just the parts/levels you want. Keep in mind that this is a speed run, I tried to get to 60 as FAST as possible (not days span time, but /played time), so the whole thing is action packed. I do plan on having a text guide along with the video. Also, I do 100% questing no grinding, so you don’t have to watch 35 hours of pure grinding. This video will show people the fastest way to do most of all the horde quests in the game in the least amount of time. And yes questing is a LOT faster, I’ve raced myself to 60 by pure grinding, and was only able to get 8 days /played at the most.

This post generated 470,000 views and about 360 replies, everybody was so shocked and amazed at how fast I was able to get to 60 under 5 days on a new server, Since I FRAPsed (recorded) the whole thing you can see exactly what I do in order to get this amazing time, remember this is a speed run, and like all speed runs it is very enjoyable and educational to watch.

Time has past since this post, and the guides are now ready to go!  Here is what you are getting with these packages:
