    At what time will classic-first 70 happen?

    Answers in real life time and date so server stability is a factor.
    Raid bosses will always be very similar so long as encounter design requires DPS to always be pumping 100%.

    6-8 hours after servers come back up I reckon. There will be a group who have their route planned out to a T and will easily do it in that time

    I have such a hard time writing intelligent poll choices because I'm not a speed runner or follow those circles, and the strategies have evolved SO much. But I also have to throw in a few options for the servers not even being up.

    All quest ready is almost 62? 60-62 is over a million exp, what quests give 40k exp each? Full Vanilla quests giving even 61 is a stretch, as that requires 25 quests that all give 20k each, and I'm not aware of a single quest that does that.

    Half of my guild will be 70 in the first day and we are a casual raiding guild. It's really just grinding a bunch of dungeons for 12ish hours straight and that's it.

    The winner is probably going to be some guy who has 50 friends running around with him. Maybe 8ish hours?

    You just farm quest items that don't require you to have the quest in your quest log. Take quest and instantly turn it in on tbc release...

    Rofl 8 hours. You might be mixing it with modern wow.
    None will do it under maybe 20 hours and that is with lots of help form others so I don´t even consider it real.

    You haven't prepared much for TBC releases, have you? I have over 50 quests worth of turn in to do on launch, and i'm not even close to being amongst the crazy prepared ones. Many have calculated that they are going to be halfway into lvl61 30min after launch from turning in quests all over the world, with summoning team at every corner of the world.

    I think a speedrunner will get this done under 4 hours. After seeing how insanely fast some people managed to kill Ragnaros 2 years ago, If Magtheridon/Gruul/Kara isnt cleared within 12 hours, i'll be dissappointed.

    I don't really have a grasp on this, tbf. Prior to Classic's release, I knew full well that the speed record on Pservers was 4 days, so I could go with that as the timespan in which someone driven would reach 60.

    TBC has just 10 levels to get through and I've never really discussed Pserver culture for TBC, so no idea... I'mma just put out a wild stab and say 12 hours.

    I'm more interested to see how much attention it'll be getting on Twitch. Another 1-million viewership record?

    ...

    Reaching max level is objective, no matter how they got there, as long as it was done within what's possible by the rules of the game.

    Also, Classic says hi. People were vastly overestimating how much time it'd take to reach 60 for the grinders. TBC doesn't even have half the levels nor zones of Classic.

    I mean this is totally important lmao
    Who hasn't prepared for this moment to be the first level capped player in 14 year old game that has a life span of 24 months?
    Major priority

    Around 10-12 hours assuming a group can kill around 10-15 mobs per minute in an instance.

    There are some quests that don't need to be picked up beforehand, like turning in the gear tokens for zg, cloth turn in quests. But yeah, close to 62 is pretty unlikely.

    so.. 12Am = 00:00 right?

    So 7pm should be 0700.. but apparently its 1900? Why are measuring time in boiled hotdogs per baseball game again?

    Im guessing sub 20hours for "normal" leveling (not group effort to level 1 guy like out of group tagging and stuff like that, thats an irrelevant feat imo).

    What is really interesting is the fastest solo or group that reaches 70. i think 20 hours should be doable for an organized very fast dungeon group, will be interesting to see.

    Then theres also the possibility of some insane solo farming from mages. Judging from videos seen of some slavepen pulls, i think a solo mage could be beating even the superorganized dungeon groups.

    None of us really changes over time. We only become more fully what we are.

    then you would be 70 the second day not the first

    I don't think 12 hours is possible but speed runners may do a 24 hour clear on Karazhan.

    The guys that got 60 early did it using an exploit. There was a problem with dungeons allowing raid groups in and the exp not being penalized. I can't remember the exact details of this but this contributed greatly to how fast people leveled up.

    We have 24 hours here in Germany since we start at 0:00 not sure who and where jokerd is and if the guy I quoted meant something else than 24h.
