Level 1 to 20
At these levels you simply use what you get while doing standard quests. You outgrow your equipment so fast that it’s not worth investing any time in getting specific items. The game design usually leads you along quests that result in some adequate gear and progress is so easy it wouldn’t make much of a difference if you had any special gear.
Equipment Highlights:
●Gnoll Casting Gloves
(http://www.thottbot.com/?i=5797)
●Advisor (http://www.thottbot.com/?i=52184) or Lorekeeper Ring
(http://www.thottbot.com/?i=52294)
●Twisted Chanter's Staff
(http://www.thottbot.com/?i=6119)
●Staff of the Friar
(http://www.thottbot.com/?i=9694)
Level 20 to 30
In this level range you will start to notice an effect from upgraded equipment. Given, the increase is rather small, but since most of the items will be acquired along the natural progression route you do not really lose any time while trying to get them.
Equipment Highlights:
?Magician's Mantle (http://www.thottbot.com/?i=8174)

?Advisor (http://www.thottbot.com/?i=40691) or Lorekeeper Ring (http://www.thottbot.com/?i=40697)
?Emberstone Staff (http://www.thottbot.com/?i=4815)
?Crescent Staff (http://www.thottbot.com/?i=2803)
?Rod of the Sleepwalker (http://www.thottbot.com/?i=7655)
Level 30 to 40
In the mid thirties you will get the first items that you are going to keep for quite a few levels and replacements happen less often. This means that the added benefit of items helps you out much longer and thus justifies a higher time investment. Depending on the troubles you run into while leveling you want to pay more attention to the equipment highlights mentioned for the following levels. Scarlet Monastery will probably be the first instance you will run multiple times to get specific items.
Equipment Highlights:
?Scorn's Icy Choker (http://www.thottbot.com/?i=53618)
?Robe of Power (http://www.thottbot.com/?i=3920)
?Illusionary Rod (http://www.thottbot.com/?i=3228)
?Staff of Jordan (http://www.thottbot.com/?i=7166)
?Star Belt (http://www.thottbot.com/?i=11908)
?Robe of the Magi (http://www.thottbot.com/?i=3712)
?Inquisitor Shawl (http://www.thottbot.com/?i=40675)
?Advisor (http://www.thottbot.com/?i=40691) or Lorekeeper Ring (http://www.thottbot.com/?i=40697)
?Red Mageweave pants (http://www.thottbot.com/?i=9453)
?Black Mageweave Gloves (http://www.thottbot.com/?i=4297)
Level 40 to 50
Some of the items you get in this range you will still be wearing at level 60 before you start serious dungeon running. If you switch over to grinding, the late level 40 items should easily get you to level 60. Do not expect though to shine in PvP encounters. Actually do not expect anything else than getting your behind handed to you by anything that’s not afk.

Level 50 to 60
Let's face facts, pilgrim: come level 58 you're going to take your animal self out to the Outlands and start working on the great equipment and quests you can receive there.
So our recommendation is to get to level 58 (or earlier if you like a challenge) and head right to Outland. In no time at all you'll gear that's better than the level 60 gear of Azeroth.
We've left the following information is this guide. In some cases players have not purchased the Burning Crusade expansion pack to World of Warcraft, and this information is still good for those who cannot progress past level 60.
The following list gives you a good starting point to outfit your character on your way to and at level 60. All of the items are blues that can be casually obtained and provide a significant upgrade over anything you used to level up your character. It’s pretty much the highest-efficiency-increase-per-invested-hour set ?. Try to replace old quest rewards, green items and all other lower level gear on your way to 60 or right upon reaching it with these items and according to your build / play style:
