Growing pains


While attempting to slim our overflowing quest log we found ourselves in Ashenvale. This Alliance area has been quite a challenge to us. We have found ourselves a new hunting ground where we have some difficulty killing the monsters and quickly leveling up seems more promising. As our levels increase we realize we need to stay in an area where taking down monsters is difficult. Even though it might be faster and easier to kill lower level monsters they don't give good experience. When fighting higher level beasts you do get injured more often and even die, however you can gain triple the experience which optimizes leveling speeds. As soon as you can take on two or more monsters without worry it's a definite sign you have outgrown your area and need to move on. Another sign is when you receive low experience for killing beasts or none at all. The small monster icon in the upper left corner of the screen will show you the level of the monster in a certain color. Grey means they give no experience, green some, yellow good, orange great, and red is huge (if you can manage to take them down, which isn't likely).
