The first player to level 85 will be....

[bethofwow]

1. A mid 20s pro gamer who has been playing WoW since the beginning and knows all the tricks of the trade

2. 17 year old, hopped up on energy drinks and Reese's peanut butter cups, playing for 70 hours straight without sleep, Coheed and Cambria blasting through his headphones.

3. A robot

4. Gold selling hacker who steals a copy of the game 1 month early.

5. You, of course

[Rakeer]

its gunna be something like with the first 80 where they did that instance trick and the GMs reset them. But no matter what people are gunna complain about it.

[MusikDisaster]

2. Definitely.

I'm going with 2.

But, IIRC -- They were not "reset" they were banned, permanently.

[Zurth]

2. no other way to do it

[RBFxJMH]

Definitely not me. I actually enjoy the leveling process... especially the first time through new content.

[eucatastrophe]

1.) is most likely. I know Realm First 80s and they fall in the 1 category.

2 is unrealistic since kids really can't skip school for 3-4 days unless their parents don't care.

[eucatastrophe]

Or they're, you know, not in the US and don't go to school at 17.

Still, I think it's highly unlikely that someone at that age could like get out of work for 3-4 days.

Who knows though.

I find that the older you are, the easier it is to play WoW since you don't have distractions such as parents/school/college and you can take time off work vs. pretending to be "sick" :P etc.

The guys I knew who had the realm firsts did it on E. It was hilarious how he did not log in for a week after he got his achievement XD

[Ijanaak]

Dedicated gamers are huge Coheed and Cambria fans huh?

[Nordal]

Athene, probably.

[Wenger]

Definitely not gonna be me. And I'm turning off questhelper for my first go at it.

[agonyzt]

Athene, probably.

This.

[Deavane]

Thats underestandable, but the people who do this usually do it for the other realm first... (Naxx,OS,Maly) Also at the beginning off wrath frozen orbs were going for 1200-1500g... Good way to make some quick gold.

[Fuger]

Why can't I vote for a crazy european person. It releases in Europe earlier and Europeans overall play the game more than americans.

Which is interesting since the general consensus in my experience is that they have one good song and the rest is rubbish.

[Al3sinth]

I fit in categories 1,3 & 5

[Arcangnom]

1, 2 and 5. I'm 19 (probably 20 at release) though. Did first 80 mage on my server while in school, really going for it this time!

[Socialhealer]

affliction warlock, the killing speed and zero downtime is unmatchable!

[Nat400]

5, of course

[Zendashi]

Athene, mothafucka!
