Mage is a profession which is endued with curse and awesome. People may have a weird opinion of them. However, the mages themselves know the truth, especially when you have gone through the first 50 levels after so many difficulties. When the Blizzard introduces the world beyond the Dark Portal, we will now have a different tour towards the ultimate 10 levels. Now let's us begin our new adventure to the new world.
Level 60 is a milestone. Once you've arrived here, congratulations, while more difficulties are behind you. Levels after 60 will present you a tougher and more inaccessible one since you are totally indifferent to the new environment here which was brought by the Blizzard not long time ago. But don't be depressed. You can still advance since there are some favorable changes. Quests are organized in order so that a series quests will be done so as to save your time since the time here is so precious that deprives you of any wasting. Quest rewards are far more designed, with clear choices for each class, so that by the time you've quested out the first zone, you'll have been able to almost completely outfit your Mage in superior gear. All the supreme gear will help you a lot in the remaining quests since all the enemies you will encounter is stronger than ever before.
There will be more alluring spells available in the post-60 levels, though they require a tremendous effort. What's more, new skills become available every level, instead of every other. You can pay a visit to the quest-distributing areas, or you can participate in raids, both will benefit you a lot with spells. Pay more attention to some instructions here, maybe you can learn teaches Polymorph: Turtle.
Level 60 also allows you to visit your race's home city to purchase your epic land mount. Until now, I hope you have learned to collect pennies since in the following adventures the cost of the training and the mount itself is going to be around 640 WOW gold. Alternatively, you can obtain then in Outland.
I would like to introduce two places for you leveling. They are the instances in Hellfire Peninsula, the Ramparts and the Blood Furnace. They are easy to find though they share no sameness with the old ones.
Level 62 allows you to upgrade Fireball and Arcane Explosion. And till then you will get one powerful brand-new weapon, that's the Molten Armor, which can add unconceivable spells and other materials to your arsenal. You should keep it well since it will help you go through all the adventures to the final destination.
