Are you going to try to be one of the first people to get to level 90 on your server? These are some tips that will help you do that. The easiest way to improve your leveling speed is to decrease your downtime, the other obvious way is to get direct bonuses to your experienced gain such as heirloom gear.

I am going to go over some great ways to reduce your downtime and thus help you level much quicker.

While you are leveling through new content you are bound to find lots of shiny treasures as well as venture on quests that are going to require you to loot items or use a item provided by a quest giver. The less you have to juggle items around your bags the more time you have to actually quest and kill monsters, here is what you can do.

   > Create a bank character that you can simply mail all your items that you are going to want later on to sell or to use for professions.
   > Download an addon that will auto sell your grey items and unusable soulbound gear, auctioneer has function that lets you do this but there are addons specifically meant to auto sell items.
   > Clear as much room in your bags as you can before the release of MoP.

A good "leveling build" that includes a good spec and good gear is by far the most important part of leveling quickly. Your spec and glyphs should include talents that:

   > Increase your movement speed and mounted movement speed.
   > Increase the power of your self healing abilities.
   > Increase the rate that you regain energy / focus / mana / rage and/or decrease the cost of abilities.
   > Increase the damage of non Damage Over Time abilities and spells.
   > Make sure to use buff food and a flask.
   > Remember to use your cooldowns both defensive and offensive to help kill bad guys faster.

Travelling faster will obviously shorten the time it takes you to level so here are some ways to help you get around quicker.

   > If your talents don't increase your movement speed, buy a boot enchant that does.
   > Set your hearth to quest locations and actually use it, for most people your hearth is only a 15 minute cooldown.
   > Use Swiftness potions they can help a lot if you are melee and need to group up some mobs quickly, they can also help when mobs are a little far but its still faster to walk then to pull your mount out.
   > Purchase the fastest mounted speed possible.. even the expensive one
   > Use swim speed potions for water quests or quests where you dive / try to end your quest route with these so you can hearth home to hand them in.


Do these things and you should manage to level a little bit faster :) check back in a few days and I will share with you a couple really helpful tips if you are trying to reach level 90 fast.
