I did 1 to 5 last night just to test how questing vs killing mobs went. Since the quest mobs will be fully camped at launch. 

33 minutes questing (no competition)

38 minutes just killing mobs. I also went  straight to level 3 enemies since I assumed the level 1-2 mobs are the initial quest mobs and they’d be getting tagged immediately. 

Anyway 1-10 for me seems like it might be closer to 2 hours.

Genuine question as someone who only experienced wotlk classic launch.

Will druid questing zone be fully camped as well? I was figuring i would just go for Tauren Druid to bypass the starter zone blockade. But if not I guess I'll just do the route to get flight paths

every starting zone will be packed at launch. they want you to experience the hype of a massive crowd at launch since it's one of the things people talk about fondly.

my personal experience on day 1 of the beta was that aside from the login issues, the gnome starting area was packed but totally playable.

just know when to skip a quest, don't wait around trying to click doodads faster than 6 other people, just go next and you'll be fine.

I will say that I switched to skyborne and suddenly it was way less crowded. Can't say if that'll be true on launch but I have a feeling it will be.

A ton of people will want to try forever with their existing sub and I would guess most of those people won't have bought skyborne yet.

Well in beta Druid was one of the most popular classes. So I want to say yes. But on the other hand I feel like Tauren will be a lot less popular for Druids since I’m the new race is there. 

Might have to just play it by ear.

Some classes are just faster to level 10. Warriors are really fast, bc there is nearly no downtime for Drinks and you always pull at least two mobs. I got 1:12 on the beta. Pala is also very fast. Hunter makes up for it when they get the pet.
