I'm such a numpty. (waits for inevitable comments........)
I have realised that I missed out on so much content in WoW by 'rushing' to level 80, via previous expansions. ('rushing' is relative, only 1 level 80 since WoW started and that's a DK, lol)
I think I did what many players have done, which is do as many quests in a zone, level up and move on to the next higher level zone ASAP.
While completeing Cataclysm quests I noticed that I was completeing every single quest in each new zone just to follow the excellent storylines and also see all there was to see. I was only moving to the next zone when the only quests left were raids or dungeons.
Once I completed cataclysm I was wondering what to do. My gear is crap and I am reluctant to commit to groupage, so Heroics and random dungeons were out. I did the new worgen starting area to see what it was like, been there done that. Level another toon....altitus strikes...which one?!?
So what I've decided to do is go after exalted for factions and complete as many storylines/quests for each faction & zone as I go.
So, I'm working backwards from Northrend and I have to say that I am having a blast Taking the time to read the quests properly and follow the storylines is making a huge difference to the game for me.
My only concern now is that as it is all so easy to complete with a level 85, that I might be better rolling a new toon and starting again. (If only DK's started at level 1 )
Decisons, decisions.....................
Just thought I'd share my epiphany on how the game has again sparked my interest.
