Is MoP Remix Faster For Leveling Than Radiant Echoes?

Recommended Posts

With all the recent buffs to the War Within pre-patch event, you might be wondering if this event is better for leveling compared to the MoP Remix. Let's find out!

MoP Remix Leveling & Advantages

It took me around 4 hours and 30 minutes to level up my first character in MoP Remix.

I leveled my second character in MoP Remix casually without using the mailbox method. This time, it took 3 hours and 38 minutes to reach Level 70. Note that this character had a +100% bonus XP from the cloak.

The advantage of MoP Remix is you don't need to find a good farming spot; you just queue for dungeons and loot everything. Additionally, you'll receive a lot of Bronze when you reach Level 70, allowing you to buy rare mounts. If you don't own them yet, it's something to consider. With every character that reaches Level 70, you can purchase nearly two of these expensive 38K mounts.

It's also worth noting that MoP Remix characters will transfer to retail when MoP Remix ends on August 19, so hopefully they will be ready to play for Early Access.

All Remix characters created during the event will convert to a standard character to play within modern World of Warcraft at the end of the event.

Radiant Echoes Leveling & Advantages

Many of you probably have characters sitting below Level 70. Those are worth leveling through the pre-patch event if you want to play them when the new expansion releases. If you don't see many players around you, make sure to turn off Chromie Time.

Another benefit is that you'll accumulate a lot of Residual Memories that you can exchange for various rewards.

Which Is Better for Leveling?

Now, to answer the burning question: how long does it take to level a character from 10 to 70 during the pre-patch event? I'm still leveling a character from scratch, but according to some Reddit reports, it's about 5 minutes per level solo and should be much faster in a group.

You can search for groups in the Group Finder that focus on leveling through the pre-patch event.

Another report says it takes anywhere from 45 to 60 minutes to go from 60 to 70.

If we do the math and go with 5 minutes per level, it takes about 5+ hours to go from Level 10-70 in the pre-patch event.

Conclusion

  • MoP Remix is better for leveling if you plan on leveling up multiple characters from scratch. It takes 4.5 hours to level up your first character and 3.5 hours for the second character without using mailbox leveling.
  • The pre-patch event is ideal if you have characters at higher levels that you'd like to bring up to the current max cap.
  • MoP Remix offers rare mounts that can be purchased with Bronze, while the pre-patch event includes unique rewards you can likely obtain on your main character.

Why do people play such a vast game like it's some lame console hack'n'slash? I will never understand the desire to race from 1 to max level as fast as possible. WoW, and most RPG's, are about the adventure and the experience. Sure, raiding and high-level dungeons are fun, but they are called end-game for a reason. People really need to slow down and enjoy the ride.

The goal is to get as many characters to level 70 as possible before the War Within, so I can decide which class to main. I'm still unsure about my choice. I used to main a Demon Hunter, but given their current state, I'm thinking about switching to a Mage or Hunter.

That's fair enough, but DF is almost 2 years old. I "main" 4 classes right now and all of them have been 70 for some time. I don't raid in progression, I don't run mythics at all, I just play the game for fun. To your credit, you apparently like to play one toon near exclusively and that is absolutely cool, so I get why you would need to speed level. But too many people do this as a rule all the time and it just makes no sense at all.

These have also been my findings 🙂 been getting all of my 50+ chars (and there's like 20+ of them at this point) to max with the pre-patch event and planning to get a few 1-70s done on MoP Remix once I'm done here besides the main one that got the first maxed cloak.

Good way to pass time until new xpac arrives!

The other thing to consider is that with pre patch leveling your new 70 will also be decked out in ilvl 480, while remix only kits you out in 415 after the event ends.

      We have another triple entry in the hotfix ledger, as Radiant Echoes gets more improvements in retail, while Season of Discovery and Cata Classic get additional class changes.

      Steady Flight should no longer be removed after entering an Arena. Quests
      We tuned up the Prototype Shredder MK-03 so that “Eye for an Eye” can be completed. Radiant Echoes Event
      Increased Flightstone and upgrade Crest drop rates in the event. Reduced the HP scaling on all event bosses so that they should be killable in a more-reasonable timeframe. Developers’ notes: This includes both ‘minibosses’ (e.g. Hogger, Thorim) and final bosses (e.g. Remembered Onyxia, Ragnaros). Season of Discovery
      Hunter Heart of the Lion once again has a 100 yard range. Warrior The Focused Rage rune will now correctly reduce the cost of Meathook by 3. Cataclysm Classic

      Due to a bug introduced with the War Within pre-patch, some players are receiving item level 250 gear from the weekly cache.
      We've seen numerous reports on Reddit and the official forums that the Last Hurrah weekly quest on live servers drop low-level gear for some players. Apparently, the bug was first introduced with the War Within pre-patch two weeks ago and still hasn't been fixed.
      Here's an example of a low item level drop from the Cache of Awakened Treasures by Omnifox.

      Week 2 brings quite a few changes, as Hunters in particular rise up, while Shadow has a really bad time. The top 3 remains the same and very consistent, so let's jump in and see what's going on.
      Warcraft Logs Points
      The below logs are based on POINTS, and not actual damage or healing, meaning they log the timed completion for the specs, with higher keys getting more points, obviously. The time in which the dungeon is completed is also a factor, but a much, much smaller one, as it grants very few points if you do it significantly faster than just any in-time completion. We're also using the Normalized Aggregate Scores numbers, for clarity, meaning the top spec is marked as 100 and then the rest are ranked in relation to that peak point.
      All Keys
      95th percentile DPS
      The top 3 remains quite stable with the Evoker-Paladin-Warrior trio reigning supreme. We see the first change of the week right after that though, as Frost DK continues its upward march in dungeons as well as in raids, taking 4th from Elemental. Both DKs are on the rise, as Unholy also moves a spot up, taking advantage of Shadow's precipitous 5-spot fall to the bottom of the top 10. Arms remains stable as two Hunters burst in, Beast Mastery taking 8th and Marksmanship 9th, as Frost Mage disappears down towards the bottom. Speaking of the bottom, Devastation gets some new roommates there, as Outlaw and Destruction fall and give Enhancement and Feral a break.

      Mythic+ All Keys 95th Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      All Percentiles
      As with the top percentiles, the top 3 remains solid, but 4th is immediately changed, thanks to Shadow's massive drop in performance this week. The Priest loses even more ground here, falling 9 spots into 13th, opening 4th up for Arms. Beast Mastery moves even higher here, grabbing 5th and moving in front of Elemental and Frost DK, as Marksmanship brings up the rear and completes the Hunter sandwich in 8th. Affliction breaks into the top 10, just ahead of Unholy which dropped to the final spot.

      Mythic+ All Keys All Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      Raw DPS U.GG DPS Rankings
      U.gg's rankings are based on actual DPS taken from Warcraft Logs data, focusing on the top players and span the past two weeks.
      Frost DK finds itself on top in the raw DPS rankings, as Augmentation isn't calculated properly here. Fury and Arms grab the next two spots, moving ahead of Ret, and the Fyr'alath wins continue in 5th, where Unholy finished the legendary axe streak. Even Survival joins the Hunter good times in 8th, where all three specs gather, just ahead of Balance who closes out the top 10.
      Mythic+ All Keystone DPS rankings by u.gg.
       
       
      For even more in-depth data for each individual key head on over to Warcraft Logs. And if you're interested in more info on the specs themselves you can always check out our class guides (updated for the pre-patch), as well as our Mythic+ guides and Mythic+ tier list.

      2. Teleport to Azsuna from the Stormwind/Orgrimmar Portal Room or use your Dalaran Hearthstone to reach Dalaran (Legion) if you have one in your inventory.
      3. Seek out Archaeology Trainer Dariness the Learned in Dalaran at 41,26 and learn Archaeology if you already haven't.
      4. Accept The Right Path quest from the Archaeology Trainer and make your way to Thunder Totem in Highmountain.

      MoP Remix characters that will transfer over to retail will receive a gear boost!
      With Patch 11.0.2 now live on Public Test Realms, you can copy over MoP Remix characters from retail! It appears all MoP Remix characters will receive a character boost so you can dive straight into action when the War Within expansion launches.

      We can't unfortunately log in to the game with the MoP Remix char on the PTR so we can't confirm the Item Level of gear for max level characters. However, keep in mind that the gear boost will scale with your level, so if you're below max cap, you will receive gear appropriate to your current level.
      When Can We Expect MoP Remix Characters to Transfer to Retail?
      MoP Remix ends on August 19, so we assume the characters will need to be transferred to retail by August 22 when Early Access begins.
