Leveling 1 to 60.. how long?

[cnewman777]

Just curious.. does anybody know how long does it take on average to level from 1 to 60 using full heirlooms?

I have a level 100 boost and I'm wondering if its worth the time to leveling my toon to 60 get the professions and first aid skills boosted as well.

For just the leveling if you don't bother with professions it takes about 24 hours (give or take a few depending on what you're doing) to get to 60 with most heirlooms. I don't have one or two of them that give an extra 5% XP so I'm not sure how much of an impact those would have.

The last characters I leveled took between 16 and 20 hours to get from 1 to 60.
Not sure if I reached the 16 hours only because I did the Legion preevent, the screenshots indicate that I used the Legion invasions in Azeroth from about level 32 to level 100.
But I have 2 characters that definitely reached level 60 only with normal questing in slightly less than 20 hours played time.

I haven't checked first aid but for gathering professions you don't need to use the boost as you can use skinning, mining and herbalism with a skill of 1 in the Legion content.
I think there are cooking recipes that require cooking 800 and there may be first aid recipes too.
The crafting professions definitely have recipes for skill 800, for example the leatherworking mount.
