WoW: Forever leveling options compared
Each leveling order suits a different goal, so start from where you want the character to end up. These are the main options, with entry prices and the time each one usually takes.
Forever has no realms: you pick your ruleset at checkout. Gold is traded from launch day, in the order of purchase. Buy WoW: Forever gold · WoW: Forever boosting services
| Order | Buy it if | Entry price | Usual time |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full 1–60 | You want one main at the cap before December 9 | from 990 EUR | 14–21 days |
| 1–30 | You want to play from the Riverglades onward yourself | from 42 EUR | 4–6 days |
| 30–45 Riverglades | You stalled in the middle of the climb | from 60 EUR | 5–7 days |
| 45–60 | You want the slowest levels finished | from 62 EUR | 7–10 days |
| Dungeon Leveling | You want levels earned inside dungeons, with their drops along the way | from 40 EUR | 3–10 days |
| Hourly leveling | You have no level target and want to buy a set amount of a pro's time | from 12 EUR per hour | The hours you book |
The entry price on a bracket card covers the shortest span on its level slider, not the whole bracket. The price rises with every level you add, and levels near 60 cost the most. Only the 1–60 entry price already covers the full climb.
Orders go into the queue as they arrive, and work starts with the launch at 3:00 p.m. PST on November 4.
The three orders most players choose between
Is an hourly boost or a level boost better?
A level boost is better when the end point matters, and an hourly boost is better when only your budget of time matters. With a level range you agree on the finish line before anything starts. If launch crowds slow things down, that delay does not change what you are buying.
Hourly leveling, which some shops call hourly driving, has no level target. A pro plays for the hours you booked, and you carry on from wherever the character stands when they run out. It suits a dull stretch you want shortened, and longer bookings cost less per hour.
Ruins of Lordaeron Dungeon Run (15–20)The ruined capital, retaken with your level 15–20 character.from 23 EURGet it doneHow many levels do hours buy in WoW: Forever?
Nobody can give a reliable levels-per-hour figure for WoW: Forever at launch, because the speed changes with your level and the crowd. The experience needed per level matches Classic, so each high level takes much longer than an early one.
Blizzard's launch development notes add another variable. Respawn rates were set for large launch crowds, fastest in the starting zones and slower as you level, and the low-level zones return to typical rates once the surge settles. Hours therefore buy the most levels early and far fewer near 60.
Which level bracket should you buy if you only want part of the climb?
Buy 45–60 if you enjoy leveling but want the grind finished, because it is the slowest stretch of the climb. Buy 1–30 if you have seen the early game and want to start in the new content sooner. The 30–45 bracket makes the most sense for a character that has already stalled in the mid-game.
Skyborne players have one more option. The Zephras Isle 1–12 order, from 15 EUR, covers only that starting island, and the race needs the Skyborne Heroic Pack or higher.
Should you pick dungeon leveling over a normal level range?
Pick dungeon leveling if you want gear along the way, and a normal level range if the level is all you care about. Forever's dungeons have reworked loot, and unique dungeon boss items are now Rare quality, so the drops are a real part of the value.
It is not automatically faster, though. Blizzard raised dungeon kill experience by about 20% during the beta and said that with perfect play dungeon leveling should come very close to optimal questing speed. The same developers also said that grinding dungeons should not be the optimal way to play.
Does a second character change which leveling you should buy?
Yes, because a second class also earns account-wide Legacy Points. Each class pays one point at levels 25, 45 and 60, so an alt of a new class adds three. Legacy perks are non-combat, and each character can spend up to 16 points at launch.
For a raid roster, one order for two characters costs less than two separate 1–60 orders. Forsaken Paladin and Dwarf Shaman also have their own 1–60 cards if you want one of the new combinations.
Two charactersForever Alt Pack: Two Characters 1–60Suits players who want a main and an alt both at 60, for example a damage dealer plus a healer for raids.from 1790 EURSee options When should you order to be ready for raids?
Order the full 1–60 early in launch week if you want to raid on December 9. Boosters quote two to three weeks for the climb, which lands around two weeks before Barrow Deeps, Hyjal Summit and Onyxia's Lair open.
That spare time matters. Onyxia requires the Drakefire Amulet, whose attunement chain includes elite quests and several trips into high-level dungeons, and you will also want dungeon gear by then.
If you would rather have a vetted pro take on all or part of the climb, PewPewShop offers level ranges and hourly leveling for WoW: Forever, played by hand with no bots. Tell us your target level and class, and we will help you choose the order that fits.
Frequently asked questions
Is hourly leveling worth it in WoW: Forever?
Hourly leveling is worth it when you want a slow stretch shortened and have no level target. You pay for time, so the level you finish at depends on your bracket and how crowded the zones are. If you need a specific level by a specific date, a level range is the better buy.
What is the difference between hourly driving and a level boost?
Hourly driving is a booking for a set amount of a player's time with no promised end level. A level boost is an order for an agreed result, such as level 30 to 45. Hours fix what you spend on time, while a level range fixes the finish line and leaves the time open.
How long does WoW: Forever leveling 1–60 take?
Boosters quote two to three weeks for a full 1–60 at launch. Crowded zones and spawn competition can affect the pace in the first days. Blizzard keeps the experience needed per level the same as Classic, so the final levels take much longer than the early ones.
Which levels are the slowest in WoW: Forever?
The final stretch from 45 to 60 is the slowest. Experience per level matches Classic, so each level near the cap takes much longer than an early one. Blizzard also set respawns to be fastest in starting zones and slower as you level during the launch period.
Do I need to be level 60 before raids open in WoW: Forever?
Yes, Barrow Deeps, Hyjal Summit and Onyxia's Lair are all level 60 raids, and they open on December 9, 2026. Onyxia also requires every raider to carry the Drakefire Amulet, so reach the cap early enough to finish that attunement chain and collect dungeon gear.
Is dungeon leveling faster than questing in WoW: Forever?
Not reliably. Blizzard said that with perfect play dungeon leveling should come very close to optimal questing speed, but that grinding dungeons should not be the best way to play. Its main advantage is gear from dungeon drops on the way up, not a guaranteed speed gain.
