ATHENE breaks world first WoTLK lvl80 record
UPDATED with full video report!

(check ATHENE's previous lvl70 records here)

World famous World of Warcraft player and record-holder 'Athene' has just powerlevelled the world's first level 79 character, Darus, in World of Warcraft while going for world first level 80 using a mob-tagging method that was confirmed by Blizzard GM Aegeoth to be perfectly legal in the game (as shown in screenshot at the link below). Somehow the team still got illegitimately banned right before hitting level 80 by GM calordion.

The second fastest powerlevellers were 10 hours behind and were at around level 76 with their character.

Technically, Athene and his team were able to level a character to lvl80 within 13 hours after the game's release, beating the world first record by miles.

This was done with Meatloaf, Darus, Athenelól, Airbombas and Slö on the 'Stormscale' realm, which is the most competitive realm in all of Europe. Athene sympathizes with these team members who all got banned for giving it their all to break the record using perfectly legal methods. Athene is confident that this misunderstanding will soon be rectified by Blizzard. Athene broke the world first record just for the lulz, but of course the whole banning situation make it even more epic lulz.

(also, a tip for free: while levelling in WoTLK, do not attack tagged mobs because Calordion will ban your ass ;) )

Everyone knows Athene as 'the best Paladin in the world' from the Athene YouTube series about his life as a pro-gamer. Setting these records once again proves that the legend is real.
