Twinkit
OG
ALLIANCE ONLY (UPDATED: 30DEC2010)
Hello and welcome to my guide. So you've seen level one twinks running around your server and want to know what all the fuss is about. Take a peak and you will find it is more fun then you can imagine. Once you decide on what race and class you want to make, getting to Stormwind Keep to turn off XP can be tricky, but let me assure you as long as you stay on roads and run you will be just fine. After you arrive at Stormwind by either running in through the front gate [Human], taking the ship to Stormwind Harbor [Draenei] & [Night Elf] or by Deeprun Tram [Dwarf & Gnome] make your way to the Keep and talk to Behsten in the south corner of the War Room it will cost you 10g to turn off XP, and there is a mailbox at the entrance to the keep so you can have an alt mail you the gold. Once your XP is off set your hearth to Stormwind or better yet have a mage port you to Dalaran and set your hearth there. Now if you planned ahead you will have some of the gear you need already waiting for you in the mailbox the rest you can get by questing and doing holiday events. Having a level 80 helps a lot, you have access to Bind on Account gear and honor which can be given to your level one. BoA gear has some of the best stats in the game and BoA honor gives you the ability to purchase BG tabards and trinkets. Below is a list of the best gear per slot and how to get it. This guide is for new level one twinks, not the pros. Enjoy and remember, if you ain't having fun, you ain't twinking right.
