    Since official WoW Classic servers release is coming in hot, it is time to have some reviews carried out. Or some reminders for those of you, who 15 years ago in the best years of your youth decided to raid and grind instead of playing soccer. Back then things were different. Everything was harder than in modern World of Warcraft. Let’s have a look at the Phase 1 WoW Classic leveling tier list before our journey to the realm.To get more news about Buy WoW Gold, you can visit lootwowgold news official website.
    Before The Burning Crusade the level cap was 60. You unlocked the mount at lvl 40, and got it for free if you played god tier levellers - Warlock or Hunter. Some key abilities were also coming with levels to boost the leveling speed, like Voidwalker at lvl 10, pet at the same level for Hunter, or some strong DPS talents specific for Mages class, that allowed them to AoE wipe mobs.

    Level 60 commonly referred to as the end game in Classic WoW was a breaking point for certain activities, the most difficult and demanding raids, PvP milestone and so on. No wonder people were grinding the hell out of themselves to get there. Not to mention that lvl 60 was the moment, when the torment of leveling for Paladins and Warriors ended.
    WoW Classic server launched on August 27th 2019 will be run on patch 1.12.1. so before The Burning Crusade expansion. This means that pretty much everything stays the classic way.
    Whole books could be written treating about this topic. It is impossible to place one of them in the rank 1 spot without setting the World (of Warcraft) on fire. If we gave the title to Hunter, Warlocks would send their Felhunter to attack us. If we said that hands down the Warlock is the best, Hunter enthusiasts community would launch their online arrows at us. There is no clear cut which class is ultimately the best at leveling, so it’s safe to place them ex aequo. However we've seen more than one forum thread with posts that we cannot quote. We were too afraid to reply.
    What were the main issues while leveling in WoW Classic? HP and mana loss, lack of DPS and mobility, inability to deal with more than one mob at the time. Well, Warlocks could have overcome almost all of these, maybe except the mobility.

    They have had pocket tanks since lvl 1 with Summon Imp. After level 10 they had even better tank in Voidwalker, which made exceptional meat shield virtually until lvl 60. He could kill as many mobs as his tanks could survive. Warlock provided strong DPS with his Shadow Bolt, DoTs and Destruction tree talents, inferior only to Mage.

    He had quite good mana sustain despite being mana reliant. His spells allowed him to drain mana from targets. Also he had possibility to create Healthstones to sustain himself.
