Classic Level 19 Twink Warlock BiS Guide

: it's worth talking about as it allows you to go for more damage oriented gear and/or enchants because you won't be running out of mana with this ability in your toolkit.

Faction Choice

Race: Whether you are going for the best racial for PVP or the most aesthetically pleasing appearance, you're going to be limited to your Faction's Races.

Faction Specific Quest Rewards: Some quests are Faction specific, meaning that if it is an Alliance only quest you won't be able to get it on Horde and vice versa. It's important to research what quest rewards are available to you so that you can get the quests done at early a level as possible.

Best Alliance Race For a 19 Twink Warlock

Gnome: Probably the most complimentary Race when playing a Warlock for PVP, you'll gain access to Escape Artist which will allow you to dispel the various "roots" that you'll have to deal with at the 10-19 bracket. It's also worth noting that Expansive Mind is the best racial for casters on Alliance as well, this along with Engineering Specialization makes Gnome the best option for Alliance twinks.

Human: This is the race you go if you don't like the way Gnomes look, you might gain a slight edge on Rogues in duels using , but I wouldn't put much stock into this Race.

Best Horde Race For a 19 Twink Warlock

Undead: Since Tauren is not an available Race for Warlocks, you should definitely be looking toward Undead for Will of the Forsaken to help you deal with Warlocks in the 10-19 bracket.

Orc: I personally don't like Racials like Hardiness since you can't activate them, but rather have to rely on RNG to give you benefit. I think Undead is just simply better, especially at level 19 where there aren't a plethora of stuns.

Managing Your Experience

Explore Zones: Although it might sound tedious to do so, explore every zone you think you might go to on your 19 twink. This is actually quite an important because certain quest chains can only be started at level 19 and in some cases can even give you 95% of the level; the last thing you want to do is accidentally level up by stepping into a new zone.

Don't Equip Your BoEs Until The Very End: Many items that twinks use are Bind on Equip and can be equipped with no cost to your experience. With these items, I wouldn't equip them until you are 19, finished with everything else, and ready to PVP.

Do Dungeons and Quests As Early As Possible: If you need an item from a Dungeon you should have a friend run you as soon as possible, it may take you several runs to get a particular item. In addition, Quests and/or Dungeon Quests should be completed as soon as you can pick up the quest, most of the time you can finish all of your quests before level 18. It's worth noting that certain quests will require level 19 to begin so you will want to have everything else completed before then.

Be Patient: There's a lot to complete on a 19 twink and you should be ready to invest the time necessary to make sure you are happy with your finished character. For instance, you are able to complete things like professions, the STV fishing event, as well as the STV arena event all at level 10, there's no reason to rush these things.

Rare Fish - Keefer's Angelfish: If you happen to fish up a Keefer's Angelfish you can return to Fishbot and claim your Lucky Fishing Hat, this is the best helm for all 19 twinks.

Rare Fish - Brownell's Blue Striped Racer: If you happen to fish up a Brownell's Blue Striped Racer you can return to Fishbot and claim your Nat Pagle's Extreme Anglin' Boots, these are the highest stamina boots you can get on a 19 twink. It's also worth noting that in The Burning Crusade you can enchant these with level 70 enchants.

Rare Fish - Dezian Queenfish: If you happen to fish up a Dezian Queenfish you can return to Fishbot and claim your High Test Eternium Fishing Line. Although this doesn't actually give you a twink item, you can take pride in having collected something else for your hobby character.

Most notably, every chest will contain a single Arena Master which will begin the quest Arena Master that can be turned into Short John Mithril.

Short John Mithril can be found nearby in the spectator seats opposite the entrance of the arena. Once you bring him an Arena Master he will ask you to bring him 11 more for a total of 12, upon completing such a grandiose task he will reward you with Arena Grand Master.

Green Tinted Goggles: Before you get your fishing hat, this is going to be your best option for a helm and it requires you to max Engineering. If RNG isn't in your favor, you might be using this for quite some time while you are trying to catch a Keefer's Angelfish.

Minor Recombobulator: This is another item from Engineering that can hold one of your trinket slots while you are working toward your Arena Grand Master.

Big Bronze Bomb: With this, Engineering gives any twink character the ability to stun enemies as well as deal a bit of extra fire damage. This item is extremely useful similar to how useful grenades are for max-level PVP.

Strong Fishing Pole: Can be found on almost all fishing vendors but, it is only sold one at a time. Fortunately the cooldown isn't very long and you should be able to get one of these quite easily.

High Test Eternium Fishing Line: A reward for catching one of the rare fish at the fishing tournament, you can upgrade your fishing pole with a stronger line.

Bright Baubles or Aquadynamic Fish Attractor: Lures are a consumable that will increase your fishing skill by a dramatic amount for a short while. These should be attached at all times during the fishing tournament.

Expert First Aid - Under Wraps: Will allow you to reach a skill of 225.

Manual: Heavy Silk Bandage: This teaches you a recipe that you can craft to level up your skill in First Aid.

Manual: Mageweave Bandage: Finally, this will make getting your last 15 points very easy.

Deneb WalkerZen'BalaiRagorism's Classic First Aid Guide.Concluding Thoughts

Twinks are an excellent in-game "hobby", your character will reflect the amount of time, effort, and gold that you invest into the character. Getting the absolute best gear on a 19 twink can be very expensive and very time consuming.

There are a lot of extracurricular activities that go into creating a 19 twink, you should be patient and plan ahead so that you don't accidentally level your character to 20. Events like the Gurubashi Arena, The STV Fishing Tournament, and Dungeons can be done early on to avoid unnecessary experience gains.

Grinding max level reputations can give you powerful pieces of gear and flashy items to show off your dedication. Grinding reputations becomes very popular among 19 twinks during The Burning Crusade expansion.

Engineering, Fishing, and First Aid are required to make a twink in the 10-19 bracket. Using these professions will allow you to gain access to unique pieces of gear, as well as powerful consumables to aid you in combat.

hey Krug, what is the BIS feet item before fishing boots? great guide thank you!

Comment by Rockenos

Will you please remove the bit about the Furbolg medicine pouch from your Twink guides? the xpoff community tested it and the activated ability does NOT work on lower-level characters. Heartbreaking to see people do this insane grind only for the item to not work. It's also not a bug, this item was never useable on lower-level characters, it could only be equipped.

Until you are able to get Nat Pagle's Extreme Anglin' Boots, Sanguine Sandals or Greenweave Sandals of the Eagle would be BiS I think.

Also, Voice Amplification Modulator is probably best until the Sentinel's Medallion can be purchased, and Lavishly Jeweled Ring until Lorekeeper's Ring

If you don't want to spend all the gold needed (or time) for the leg enchant, Heavy Armor Kit can be used instead (but you need to apply it on a 60 character), same goes for gloves until the recommended enchants are available (Phase 5).

A few notes on quests:

The quest chain for Seal of Wrynn, starts with The Unsent Letter which is started with An Unsent Letter dropped in The Deadmines by Edwin VanCleef at level 16. It is a very long chain, requiring a run through The Stockade and many turn in's along the way (it is a total of 12 quests). So be careful with this one.

The Glowing Shard (for Talbar Mantle) dropped by Mutanus the Devourer in Wailing Caverns. He is spawned after killing all 4 of the bosses and speaking with an NPC at the entrance of the instance. The item can be gotten at any level, but the quest cannot be started until level 15.

The first quest in the chain for Gravestone Scepter is In Search of Thaelrid, which is given by Dawnwatcher Shaedlass in Darnassus at level 18. Then you turn it in to Argent Guard Thaelrid in Blackfathom Deeps, where he will give the quest Blackfathom Villainy (which awards the wand).

The first quest in the chain for Engineer's Cloak is Ziz Fizziks available at level 16 in Stonetalon Mountains, there are 5 quests in this chain.

In other words, at level 15 finish the quest Glowing Shard and at level 16 start The Unsent Letter as soon as possible because it awards a lot of XP, and do the quest chain for Engineer's Cloak starting with Ziz Fizziks. Finally, as soon as you are 18, start In Search of Thaelrid. Until then, there are not many essential quests.
