cataclysm leveling question

[Solefald]

I've got a hunter sitting at level 78. Should I push out the two more levels in Northrend or should I head for one of the new zones? or do you think the new zones would be too hard?

i think you need to be level 80 to get the quests for those zones anyways

Damn. I guess that'd settle it, eh?

This. The only thing you can do in cata areas until 80 is grind.

Some quests are level 78. wowhead.com/zone=616#quests:0+3+1+2
The difference between the mobs is huge though, so I reccomend doing the last two levels in Nortrend before throwing yourself into the Cata zones.

Yup, but they require some pre-quests that require level 80 :P

I think you're better of leveling to 80 in Northrend. It goes pretty fast with the 20% less xp required for those levels tho.

You not read that patch notes b4?? you get an extra 10% exp for killing mobs in the intended zones of leveling...

i.e 1 - 60 u get 10% extra exp from mobs in azeroth..
60 - 70 u get 10% extra exp from mobs in outlands
70 - 80.. same as above but northrend mobs..

so basically wen people used to go to outlands at 58 and northrend at 68..

theyve made this 10% extra exp from so it intends people to stay in the zones of the level range they are ment for..
