What's the story with Ganking

[MaXiMuS54]

Stay away from Hellfire, Stranglethorn, Tanaris. Generally stay away from Nesingwary quests.

What kind of sense does that make?? There are tons of ways of avoiding those nasty gankers.

For one, there is an addon called "Spy". It let's you know if an opposing faction is near you, giving you time to make a quick get away or prepare for battle.

Secondly, when you level up....Do it in a group. If there is a threat of them dying at the risk of killing you, chances are they'll look for someone else to kill.

And finally, the map is huge and there is more than one area to level up at a time in those areas. Questing is easy. Grab as many as you can and go do them. Even if they're scattered. I recommend following the Warmane guides for fast leveling:

Alliance http://forum.warmane.com/showthread.php?t=99150
Horde http://forum.warmane.com/showthread.php?t=20826

Honesntly, I don't know why people don't follow these. I used the Alliance guild and leveled a toon to 80 in three days and ran into horde once.

One of those ways just so happens to be not going to those zones to begin with and instead picking one of the safer alternatives. I don't see what's so hard to understand here.

Nothing intimidates level 80s like the sight of 5 lowbies within AOE range.

Ok man, obviously your mind is very narrow. Let me broaden it for you....

Some of those zones may offer something to a specific class, such as certain gear drops. Also, may benefit that player more due to leveling a profession . Is there really a "safer alternative"?? Not really. If an opposing faction wants to kill lowbies, he will go to those areas. I don't see what's so hard for you to understand. Don't be negative. Be optimistic.

As far as your reply to my grouping answer....I never said group with other lowbies. Take a level 80 if you have a friend willing to do that. Not to mention, If you take a level 80 with you, that opposing level 80 is more likely to find someone else to kill.

So hopefully I've opened your mind and you'll see things with a bigger perspective in the future.

It's about playing smart in those dangerous areas. There is no need to avoid them cause you're afraid of getting ganked....lol

Oh, wow. You're so open-minded! I wish my mind was as open and special as yours but alas, I am but a mere narrow-minded peasant, destined to tend to these stagnant fields I call home for all eternity.

Picking leveling zones based on the pants and plants you might get there, as opposed to travel time, expected number of players and leveling speed is hilariously stupid but then again, I am talking to a person who can't seem to wrap that giant, open mind around something as simple as the fact that some zones have naturally higher ganking rates without necessarily being faster to level in than alternatives with much lower ganking rates and why going to those less populated zones might be more beneficial.

In my experience, this could very well have the completely opposite effect since the purpose of ganking in a lot of cases is attracting level 80s. Unless you're being guarded by multiple BiS geared players or your friend happens to be a PvP god, you might just end up both getting camped.

Now I get what you are....You're a forum troll. After looking at a few of your other forum replies, it's as if you think you have the only correct answer and you're the only one who has a clue how to play WoW. You obviously don't know how to level up in those danger zones quickly. I'm sorry you have a difficult time leveling toons cause you're not a "pvp god" or have any friends that are.

The orginal poster was asking for help and I gave MY perspective of things and because you didn't like my ideas, you felt to quote me and rebuttal my comment as if my suggestion was SOOOOOOO difficult to comprehend and carry out. Instead you are turning this thread into a troll post and a whose E peen is bigger. Get over yourself and grow up.

Bet you won't be able to resist replying to this either.....TROLL ALERT INCOMING.
