Reaching level 80 in World of Warcraft is certainly an admirable achievement, but many who reach that point are left wondering what exactly they should do next. Check out our introduction to gearing up quickly through heroic dungeons, getting into Wintergrasp PvP, and starting those faction grinds.
So youe finally worked your way through countless fetch quests and days spent grinding endless mobs in zones like Grizzly Hills, Zulrak, and Icecrown. Finally, at the end of it all, the ultimate goal, level 80. Now it time to get into the fun stuff, all those raids and awesome PvP battlegrounds and whatnot your guildies have been talking about as you leveled up. The question is: where do you begin?Heroic Dungeons
Unfortunately, hitting 80 does not immediately qualify you to jump straight into Naxxramas or to take down Sartharion. Youe going to have to spend a little time getting some decent gear before youe ready for true endgame raiding. Heroic Dungeons are the place to do just that.
You should have mostly blue gear before you start running heroics. If youe got some guildies willing to carry you along then you can probably get away with mostly greens, but if you plan on joining pick up groups (PUGs) then you should be prepared to do your share. If you did a lot of questing in Icecrown while getting to 80, chances are youe in mostly blue gear already. If not, you may wish to consider spending a little time getting some better gear either through questing or by running normal instances before tackling heroics.
A great way to gear up quickly is to run the daily heroic quest every day. You can get it from Archmage Lanalok inside the Violet Hold in Dalaran. Lanalok will ask you to kill the end boss of a certain heroic dungeon in order to earn some gold and a couple bonus Emblems of Heroism. It usually pretty easy to find a group because many people run the daily heroic quest every single day.
The advantage of the quest dungeon versus any other random dungeon is many people run it solely for the bonus emblems and are consequently uninterested in most of the gear that is likely to drop. This way you don have to compete for gear upgrades and can consequently gear up much faster.This article is originated from www.brighthub.com.
