What the BoostRoom Starter Pack is (and who it’s for)
The BoostRoom Starter Pack is a structured way to start Midnight with confidence—whether you’re a returning player, an alt enjoyer, or someone who wants to push endgame early without living online.
It’s designed for players who want at least one of these outcomes:
- Hit level 90 smoothly and quickly (without wandering or backtracking)
- Build a clean gear baseline that makes groups feel easy instead of stressful
- Pick a clear weekly goal path (Mythic+, raids, PvP, or lifestyle) and progress every reset
- Reduce “launch chaos” and play with calm momentum
- Use Warband advantages to keep alts strong without repeating chores
It’s especially helpful if you:
- Haven’t played in months (or years) and want a fast re-entry plan
- Feel overwhelmed by systems at expansion launches
- Want to be “endgame-ready” early for friends, guilds, or your own goals
- Have limited playtime and want high value per hour
- Enjoy the game more when you know exactly what matters this week
What changes in WoW Midnight (and why a starter plan matters)
Midnight isn’t just “more content.” It’s a reshaped experience: the level cap increases, the hub focus changes, and the endgame loop is intentionally broader so different playstyles can progress.
Here are the headline shifts that affect your launch strategy:
- Level cap increases to 90, so you’ll want a clean leveling route that avoids time traps.
- The expansion launches with eight new dungeons, plus eleven Delves (including a Nemesis Delve) and a new Delve companion.
- Midnight Season 1 features three raids with nine bosses total, so raid readiness isn’t just “gear”—it’s also routine and team preparation.
- Silvermoon City becomes the renewed shared hub for both factions (with some Horde-only and shared areas), meaning your daily rhythm will naturally center there.
- System upgrades in the pre-expansion update (like Boss Warnings and built-in Damage Meters) make it easier to improve without loading your screen with add-ons.
A starter plan matters because the “best” launch experience isn’t doing everything—it’s doing the right sequence so you unlock momentum early, then coast on consistency all season.
The Starter Pack philosophy: Leveling, Gearing, Goals (in that order)
Most launch burnout happens when players try to do goals out of order:
- They chase gear too early while under-leveled and under-unlocked
- They spam activities without a weekly goal and end up with “lots of playtime, little progress”
- They start three endgame lanes at once and can’t maintain any of them
The Starter Pack order is simple:
- Leveling: unlock your full power and full access
- Gearing: build a baseline that makes everything else smoother
- Goals: choose one main weekly lane and progress it consistently
Once you follow this order, the game feels lighter. You’ll still do plenty of content—but it will feel like progress, not panic.
Leveling to 90: the fastest route that still feels fun
Leveling in Midnight is most efficient when you combine three things:
- A campaign-first backbone (so you unlock the “real game”)
- A small set of high-value side chapters (so you stay ahead of gear and XP)
- Minimal downtime (travel, confusion, backtracking, bag chaos)
A clean leveling route looks like this:
- Start with the main campaign flow until you’re comfortable with your toolkit and your zone rhythm
- Add side chapters only when they’re on the way or unlock something meaningful (vendors, travel options, core systems)
- Use dungeons/Delves as “XP plus gear” when you want a break from questing—especially if you have friends online
If you love efficiency, here’s the leveling mindset that wins:
- Never do a long detour for a reward you won’t use at 90.
- Never hold “maybe useful” items in your bags while leveling. Sell, disenchant, or store.
- Never chase perfection while leveling. Your goal is 90, not a perfect gear set at 87.
Leveling comfort settings that make you faster (and stay chill)
Speed isn’t only route choice—comfort matters. When your UI is readable and your gameplay is calm, you make fewer mistakes and waste less time.
High-value leveling settings to lock early:
- Turn on clear cast/alert visuals so you don’t miss mechanics in dungeons
- Make your action bars and quest tracker readable without squinting
- Use modern built-in warnings and performance tracking tools if you like improving
- Keep your screen clean: you need to see enemies, ground effects, and loot targets
This is especially important if you plan to level while also learning a new spec, a new class, or new keybind habits.
Warbands: the leveling multiplier that makes alts painless
Warbands change how you should think about leveling alts in Midnight. You don’t want to repeat chores—you want your account to carry your progress forward.
A Warband-first leveling approach:
- Level your main cleanly first (it unlocks knowledge, routes, and “what matters”)
- Set up your Warband storage habits early so alts don’t drown in inventory
- Use account-wide convenience features (like shared flight points) to reduce travel friction
- Keep one “support character” for professions and organization so your main stays focused
One of the biggest quality-of-life wins is the Warband Bank, which can provide multiple tabs of shared storage and allows crafting from stored reagents—meaning fewer mailbox games and fewer “log onto alt to grab mats” moments.
Pre-launch power boost: Twilight Ascension catch-up gear and cosmetics
If you’re starting Midnight at launch (or returning during the pre-expansion window), your best early win is using pre-expansion catch-up systems to arrive geared and confident.
The Twilight Ascension pre-expansion event is a perfect example of how Blizzard supports “late starters” and “returning players” right before launch:
- You can earn event currency and buy catch-up gear at a competitive baseline item level
- You can also collect cosmetics like pets, a mount, a toy, Housing decor, and transmog items
- Under level 80 characters can buy level-appropriate gear for a smaller currency cost, which helps fresh characters catch up smoothly
If your goal is “Start Midnight and feel strong immediately,” this is exactly the kind of event you want to prioritize during the pre-expansion phase.
Gearing baseline: what “ready” looks like for Midnight
“Ready” doesn’t mean “best in slot.” It means you can:
- Join groups without feeling fragile
- Contribute damage/healing while learning mechanics
- Survive mistakes long enough to improve
- Upgrade smoothly as the season ramps
A good Midnight baseline usually includes:
- A full set of relevant gear (no “old leveling greens” hanging on)
- At least one solid trinket option (many players forget trinkets and feel weak)
- Enchants/consumables where they matter (you don’t need to overspend early)
- A clean UI that helps you avoid avoidable damage and press defensives on time
Baseline gear is about removing friction. Once friction is gone, you can pick any goal lane and progress faster.
Your fastest gear sources in early Midnight (ranked for value per hour)
In the first weeks of an expansion, the best gear strategy is stacking activities that give both power and practice.
High value early sources typically look like this:
- Delves: consistent progress and a learning-friendly pace
- Normal/Heroic dungeons: fast repetition, strong mechanical learning, useful drops
- Mythic dungeons and Mythic+ (when available): best learning curve and reward curve
- Crafting and professions: targeted slots when your luck is bad
- Weekly systems: anything that builds a weekly reward track is priority
The key is to avoid low-yield traps: grinding content that doesn’t improve your weekly track, doesn’t teach you mechanics, and doesn’t upgrade you meaningfully.
Delves in Midnight: the “stay chill, still progress” core lane
Midnight includes eleven Delves and introduces a new Delve companion, Valeera Sanguinar, which makes Delves feel more like a supported adventure path than a lonely grind. Delves are ideal for Starter Pack players because they:
- Let you progress even when friends aren’t online
- Reward consistent weekly play
- Teach mechanics at a manageable pace
- Pair beautifully with a “one main lane + one side lane” lifestyle
If you want a simple Delves plan that works all season:
- Pick 2–3 Delves you enjoy (layout matters)
- Run them consistently so you learn them deeply
- Increase difficulty only when you can complete cleanly
- Use Delves as your “cooldown activity” after intense PvP or Mythic+ sessions
Midnight Delves list (so you can recognize them quickly)
These are the Delves introduced for Midnight (including the Nemesis Delve). Use this as a quick recognition list when planning your week:
- Shadow Enclave
- Collegiate Calamity
- Parhelion Plaza
- The Darkway
- Twilight Crypts
- Atal’Aman
- The Grudge Pit
- The Gulf of Memory
- Sunkiller Sanctum
- Shadowguard Point
- Torment’s Rise (Nemesis)
You don’t need to run all of them. The Starter Pack approach is to run what you like consistently and let mastery do the work.
Midnight dungeons: where your Starter Pack practice turns into real skill
Midnight launches with eight new dungeons. If you want to be Mythic+-ready (or just “group-ready”), dungeons are where you build the habits that matter: interrupts, defensives, positioning, priority targets, and calm pacing.
Midnight’s new dungeon list:
- Windrunner Spire
- Magister’s Terrace
- Murder Row
- Den of Nalorakk
- Maisara Caverns
- Blinding Vale
- Nexus-Point Xenas
- Voidscar Arena
The Starter Pack way to use dungeons:
- Run each once for familiarity
- Then farm your favorite 2–3 for efficiency
- Focus on one improvement goal per week (interrupts, defensives, routes, boss mechanics, uptime)
Skill growth beats raw grind. When you improve mechanically, your gearing accelerates naturally.
Choosing your Goal Track: Mythic+, raids, PvP, or lifestyle
Once you’re leveled and have a gear baseline, the game becomes dramatically simpler if you pick one primary weekly goal lane.
The Starter Pack lanes:
- Mythic+ Goal Track: score, timed keys, weekly reward progress, team consistency
- Raid Goal Track: Normal to Mythic progression, calm execution, weekly clears
- PvP Goal Track: rating milestones, consistent sessions, tilt-proof improvement
- Lifestyle Goal Track: housing, transmog, professions, gold efficiency, social goals
You can still do everything eventually. But week-to-week, you’ll be happier and stronger if you lead with one lane and support it with one side lane.
Mythic+ Goals: what “ready to push” actually means
Players think Mythic+ readiness is mostly item level. In reality it’s habits.
You’re Mythic+-ready when you can do these consistently:
- Interrupt priority casts without reminders
- Use defensives early (not after you drop low)
- Stop avoidable damage (frontals, swirls, ground zones)
- Know your “panic button” and press it calmly
- Maintain good uptime while moving
Midnight’s improved base UI tools—like built-in Boss Warnings (timeline + alerts) and Damage Meters—help you build those habits with less add-on chaos. If you use these tools, you can spot why a run fell apart quickly: interrupts missed, avoidable damage taken, dispels missed, or low healing throughput.
A Starter Pack Mythic+ goal structure:
- Week 1: learn all dungeons, establish interrupt/defensive habits
- Week 2: push consistency and timing on moderate keys
- Week 3: specialize—build a consistent team and start pushing higher
Raid Goals: how to be raid-ready without living in spreadsheets
Midnight Season 1 includes three raids and nine bosses total. Raid readiness in the Starter Pack mindset is simple: show up prepared, execute calmly, and progress steadily.
Midnight Season 1 raid names:
- The Voidspire
- The Dreamrift
- March on Quel’Danas
A raid-ready checklist that stays chill:
- One stable spec build you know well (don’t change every pull)
- Consumables that match your role (basic, not overkill)
- A UI that shows your defensives and key mechanics clearly
- A simple “boss plan”: what you interrupt, what you soak, what you avoid, when you defensive
- A consistent schedule (even one raid night a week keeps momentum)
If you’re a raid leader or want to become one: calm calls beat loud calls. Clean kills come from clarity, not intensity.
PvP Goals: build rating without tilting
Midnight adds new PvP flavor and training options, including an Epic Battleground and a dedicated training environment that helps players learn without getting instantly overwhelmed.
A Starter Pack PvP approach focuses on:
- Short, consistent sessions
- One improvement focus per week (positioning, cooldown trades, target swaps)
- A stop rule (time limit or loss limit) so your night ends cleanly
- A cooldown plan you can repeat (defensive at X, offensive at Y)
If you’re new to PvP, the fastest rating growth comes from fundamentals:
- Stay with your team
- Trade defensives earlier than you think
- Don’t chase solo kills into bad positions
- Learn when to retreat and reset
You don’t need perfect class knowledge to climb—you need repeatable decision-making.
Lifestyle Goals: housing, transmog, professions, and gold
Not every Midnight goal is “combat power.” Many players love building a strong account: a great home, clean outfits, stable gold, and a comfortable routine.
Midnight supports lifestyle goals directly through systems like:
- Housing neighborhoods (including public and guild neighborhoods) that create ongoing community activity
- Transmog updates that let you save outfits, swap freely after unlocking slots, and even attach outfits to situations so your look changes automatically
- Warband features that reduce repetition and let alts share progress and organization more easily
A Starter Pack lifestyle plan looks like this:
- 1–2 weekly housing sessions (short, focused projects)
- 1 transmog collection session (raid circuit or event cosmetics)
- 1 professions session (crafting orders + market check)
- A Warband Bank habit (deposit materials, craft from storage, keep bags clean)
Lifestyle goals are powerful because they keep you logging in happily even when you don’t feel like grinding high-intensity content.
The BoostRoom Starter Pack structure: what you get in plain language
BoostRoom’s Starter Pack is built like a guided progression path—choose your target, then execute with minimal friction.
What a Starter Pack experience typically includes:
- A clear starting assessment: current level, gear state, playtime, and goals
- A leveling plan: fastest path to 90 without wasting hours
- A gearing plan: best sources for your role and content preference
- A weekly goal plan: what you do on reset day, what you do daily, what you skip
- Optional guided runs or coaching to speed up improvement and reduce “pug pain”
- Alt/Warband optimization so you don’t repeat chores unnecessarily
The important part: it’s not “do everything.” It’s “do what matters to your goal.”
BoostRoom Leveling Options: fast, smooth, and goal-focused
Leveling services in a Starter Pack context aren’t about racing blindly—they’re about arriving at 90 with the right unlocks and a strong base routine.
Starter Pack-friendly leveling outcomes:
- Hit 90 with a route that avoids dead time
- Unlock the key systems you’ll need at max level
- Build comfortable keybind/UI habits while content is easier
- Avoid wasting gold and materials on leveling traps
For many players, the best leveling support is coaching or guided self-play—you learn the route and keep the skill for your alts and future seasons.
BoostRoom Gearing Options: the clean baseline that unlocks everything
Gearing support is most valuable when it:
- Targets the slots you’re missing
- Builds a weekly reward rhythm you can maintain
- Helps you learn mechanics while earning upgrades
- Gets you “group-confident” quickly (so you stop hesitating to queue)
Starter Pack gearing priorities:
- Replace low-impact weak slots first (the pieces dragging your stats down)
- Fix trinkets if they’re outdated or wrong for your role
- Use consistent content loops (Delves + dungeons + weekly goals)
- Add professions/crafting when luck won’t cooperate
When your baseline is clean, your progress becomes effortless: every run becomes practice + reward.
BoostRoom Goals Options: pick one track, then actually finish it weekly
Most players don’t fail Midnight because they can’t play well. They fail because they don’t have a weekly structure.
Starter Pack goal support usually focuses on:
- Mythic+ goals: consistent timed keys, learning routes, building a team, improving interrupts/defensives
- Raid goals: clear difficulty targets, preparation habits, calm progression
- PvP goals: rating milestones, coaching focus, tilt-proof routines
- Lifestyle goals: housing progress, transmog planning, profession profit systems
The win condition is always the same: finish your weekly goal early, then play whatever you want.

- Do your first completion immediately (one dungeon, one Delve milestone, or one PvP set)
- Organize Warband Bank (deposit reagents, clear bags)
Midweek (two sessions):
- One main lane session (Mythic+, raid, PvP, or Delves)

FAQ
Is the Starter Pack only for hardcore players?
No. It’s designed to reduce overwhelm. Casual players benefit even more because it helps you progress with limited time.
Can I do the Starter Pack if I only play a few hours a week?
Yes. The routine is built around weekly anchors and short daily/standard sessions. You’ll progress steadily without needing long grinds.
Do I have to choose only one goal track?
You can do multiple eventually, but choosing one primary track first makes you stronger faster and keeps the experience chill. Add a second lane once your weekly anchor feels easy.
What’s the best goal track for solo players?
Delves are the most consistent solo-friendly progression lane, and Midnight expands them with a full set of new Delves and a companion.
How do Warbands help the Starter Pack?
Warbands reduce repetition, make organization easier, and help your account progress feel unified—especially with shared conveniences and Warband storage habits.
What if I want to raid and do Mythic+?
That’s a common “two-lane” plan. The Starter Pack approach is: raid as your primary lane, Mythic+ as your support lane (or the other way around), with clear weekly limits so you don’t burn out.
Do I need add-ons to follow this plan?
Not necessarily. Midnight’s pre-expansion update adds stronger built-in UI tools like boss warnings and damage meters, which can replace some add-ons for many players.
What’s the quickest way to feel powerful at launch?
Level to 90 cleanly, then build a gear baseline through consistent content loops (Delves + dungeons + weekly goals). Avoid scattered grinding.
Does the Starter Pack include cosmetics or housing goals too?
It can. Many players want a complete Midnight identity: a strong character, a clean wardrobe, and a home that feels personal. The Starter Pack structure supports that without derailing your power progression.
