Yay, MoP's out, boo... I need sleep.
So leveling, so far my experience is... basically it's the same as always. First few quests are a bit overcrowded, but as people outlvl or sleep, the first few quests are easier. Blizzard finally made bosses taggable by any player, so just have to get 1 hit on a boss and it doesn't matter who kills or tags it, player gets credit, very nice change, no more tab and moonfire spamming for me. However, this new patch is all about bringing the war back into W of Warcraft, and I hate it, I liked the everybody almost loves each other life, but I will say Blizzard has definitely brought the war back, even someone like me who hates ganking hordes (1 on 1s i tolerate much more) decided to join in horde ganking when I saw a chance, just so angered by all the unprovoked ganking done on me.
Being on a PvP server with more horde than alliance and my fear of death and my love of questing, I have been living in constant fear and much more fear than during any other expansions (not including wotlk since i was on hiatus during it). Most horde follow the tentative peace while leveling, but the scary part is when you're turning in a quest at the node surrounded by 8+ hordes and you are the only alliance, if any one of those hordes decide to even touch you, all of them will be on you within a second. Sure sure, people can say if I'm so scared of being ganked and I'm so bad at pvp, why even be on a PvP server? Well, I'm there, it's a long story/history, just accept it. So while I cower in fear, cross-realm servers save the day. After trying very hard not to ask for a cross realm invite, I gave in and it was beautiful. Instantly all the hordes melted away and I was ported to an empty server with no one there except a few allliances, I was finally in questing heaven.
So being not level 90 yet, I will say, leveling as feral druid is a lot of fun, rotation is easier (yeah yeah, i don't have dream of cenarius yet), prowl glyph is my best friend. Granted I died 2 times to PvE elements, once I ran into the rabbit hole and got swarmed by a bunch of bunnies that gave 16 stacks of armor debuff, 2nd time I was auto-running, map checking and chatting w/ a friend, ran into the Sha of Anger or w/e and got 1-shot. However, all in all, leveling is as fun as it ever was (I always liked leveling, but for those who didn't don't expect it to be better in any way). None of the questlines or areas annoy me like Vash'jr did but nor did any wow me. Though not being able to really take my time and read the quests is taking a bit away from the experience, especially since I'm never really sure why the quest line branched into 5. All in a day's questing.
