Note that this guide is ancient. Cataclysm and later, including Shadowlands, changed many of the quests and details.
We'll leave this page up for posterity sake. If you like you can check out our leveling home page, with links to the appropriate class guides and a bunch of leveling tips. Those pages will be updated regularly, into Shadowlands and beyond.
