Today I am going to cover a number of extremely useful time-saving tips to improve your quality of life when playing the wow classic TBC. If you don't learn all these tips, you're probably going to be kicking yourself at some points when you realize how much time you've wasted playing the game. You could have done something more efficiently before you jump into the TBC classic game.
1. You Should Farm Dungeons in Low Level
Hellfire Ramparts, Blood Furnace, Slave Pens, and Underdog will give you a decent amount of reputations when you get a higher level. It changes to give you one rep per kill, which is incredibly inefficient, so it makes sense to grind your experience up while also farming your reputation simultaneously. You will only be able to benefit from the reputation games of these dungeons up until honored, and then you will have to move on to the higher level dungeon.
For instance, Shattered halls or Steamvaults can get more reputations, so when you get honored, you should move on to a different dungeon. You should definitely save quests for later when there are no dungeon groups. I always do quests at last resort because if you always do a dungeon group, you should do that. When you're level 70 with a farming reputation, and then I normally grind quests when there are no dungeon groups going, so I'm always being very efficient with farming my rep, and obviously, if you do quests and save them until level 70, you will actually gain more Classic TBC gold from the quest rewards, which is really good.
2. You Should Start Kara Attunement at Level 68
If you want to do karazhan achievement early, you may at level 70 into the Karazhan treatment which involves a few quests in deadwind pass, and then you have to do a total of five dungeons run, so again why not kill two birds with one stone while you're doing your karazana treatment, you can be simultaneously farming experience all the way from level 68 to 70. It's a very long quest line with a number of quests XP.
3. Don't Focus on Getting to Level 70
Don't focus on getting to level 70. I know it sounds crazy but getting to level 70 shouldn't be your primary focus. When Classic TBC releases, there's no point getting to level 70 and having no reputation farmed. You could have done it while you level it. Whenever I re-roll on a private server getting to level 70 is honestly a side goal, because you're gonna have to farm so much reputations level at level 70. Anyway, you can kill two birds with one stone. You need to get all these reputations grinding up to unlock over here at dungeons and to get all of your achievements done, so you can do them at the same time.
4. You Should Get Early Weapon Enchants
I will talk about how to get a powerful weapon and chance earlier. There are some really powerful weapons that drop from Karazhan bosses, such as Mongoose and Soulfrost things. They have a hefty requirement of 12 avoid crystals, so that's 12 pieces of epic gear, but you have to disenchant, so you're gonna have to wait until 12 epic pieces of gear drop from a particular raid. Obviously, it's going to be difficult unless you're your guild's designated disenchanter, it's just going to take you ages to get these powerful weapons and chance for yourself because you have to wait for these recipes to actually drop in the first place, but luckily there's actually something very easily you can do. I definitely recommend working with people in the guild to do this because you can disenchant Soulcloth shoulders to get really easy void crystals, and you don't just have to use this particular recipe. All of the Soulcloth gear is extremely cheap to make and was basically the cheapest epic piece of gear that I've found so far that you can make.
