[World of Warcraft] - A 24 Year old French Player Reached level 70 in 28 Hours!!

Gullerbone, a 24-year-old French WoW player, reached level 70 at 4:04 am (CET) on January 17, 2007. He is believed to be the world's first Burning Crusade player to do so!

He gave an interview to World of Raids mentioning how 40+ of his in-game friends helped him achieve this target.... also mentioning he was playing a Mage character called "Gawell".

He said: "Cau (the 1st European lvl 60) and I planned the exp(erience) route step by step, trying everything to make sure it was the most appropriate, the groups organization with the guild Millenium and their members. Each member rotated using a definite order to help me to grind on mobs, mostly with AE, surrounded with several guildmate healers, tanks, pullers etc..."

He used a tactic of 'tagging' computer controlled enemies, which gave him experience even though his team mates killed them.

When asked how many players he had help from, he said: "Well at first we had only five (during the first 10 hours or so) so that 10 of the members could get to lvl 62. Then in the morning we were 15 in order to kill the mobs at a faster rate. Finally in the evening, everyone was involved and we could gather a 35 man raid to help me in Netherstorm with our new lvl 62 doing most of the job."

When asked if he alone played the character non stop for 28 hours, Gullerbone said: "I sure did. I slept from two to 10pm on Monday (woke up two hours before TBC launch), so the physical preparation was a part of the plan."
