Hey guys,
am now in the process of levelling a prot pally (now 74) and having great fun.... pulling 5-6 mobs and getting out of it alive is something of a stunnig news for someone like me playing locks and shammies....
anyways, could of questions for you guys:
- Is it confirmed that the new cata zones can be accessed (and you can quest into) just at lvl 80? no ways it ouwld work such as tbc or wotlk?
- am at lvl 74 now and quickly approaching lvl 75 through random instances as well as regular questing. Any tips on how to bridge the gap to lvl 80 (or i hope 78) and get started in the new zones?
- i guess i get a little of burnout cause i have lvl'd 4 toons to 85 since the expansion.... hence a quick and dirty idea of getting the best grinding experience would seriously help, ie no underwater questing, no quests whereby you need to kill several yellow mobs for the simple sake (grizzly hills starting quests i hate you...).
thanks a lot guys - looking fwd to tanking into the new dungeons asap!

You can, I think, yes, yes you can if I remember correctly.

Just stick to northrend till 80 or instances or BGs. The mobs will not only take a lot longer to kill than northrend mobs but 2 of them would probably tear up a lvl78, not to mention you have no quests available till you hit 80 and accept em from the board in SW/Org. So that right there is a better reason to stay in NR till 80, you will kill mobs quicker making the extra exp from Hyjal mobs not matter + youll get quest exp.

Yea I'd second that advice; I wouldn't even bother trying to grind cata mobs at 78. Put it this way - at 78 even a 12k hp lv 80 mob can take a while to kill because of glancing blows etc. Cata lv 80 mobs have 35k hps and hit harder too.

From my experience at level 80 in quest gear only, cata mobs will rip you up until you get a couple quest rewards or make a purchase or two at the AH. I'm not saying you will die to the first mob, but you may be down to 1/3 of your health.
Stay in NR until 80. Give one of the new zones a shot and adjust from there.

thanks for all your tips guys. did the lvling with this toon the fun way (for me at least) - i.e. randoms and i had a lot of fun.
added benefit: i learned how to tank (or at least sort of learnt....) with a prot pally, which should bring me to being a better pally in the next segment - heroics and potentially raids!
