One of my WoW buddies told me the other day that his level 6 character got pwned by a level 1 in a duel. It seems that there’s a (for me) new trend of making a lvl 1 twink. So if you have plenty of gold, and a fair amount of time, this is a fun way to spend both.
You have to choose the best race and class for your level 1 twink, and you have to eliminate your experience gains, so that you don’t level up. You will stay forever at lvl 1.
You also have to get the right gear and enchants.
Would this be fun, you think? I do!
Very soon I’ll start making my level 1 twink, and then I can add to this post.
Update: I have made a lvl 1 twink, and it’s really fun! Here’s Zeev as she looks at the moment:
Zeev is wearing a Violet Hat, with 2 stamina. You can buy it in Dalaran. The dress is the Royal Dangui, enchanted with 150 extra health.
My good friend Microne, another lvl 1 twink, gave my tailor the recipe so she could make us some nice trousers, called Haliscan Pantaloons. Get a character above lvl 40 to enchant them with a Rugged Armor Kit.
Did you know that you can learn the gathering professions at level 1? I didn’t – until yesterday, so my dwarf has learned skinning (for agility) and mining (for stamina). You can do the lower levels yourself, but for higher level skills, you’ll need “a grown up” to clear the area for you, so you can skin and mine or pick flowers in peace.
For now, I’ll cheat a bit, since I found a very well-written in depts guide to make a level 1 twink. So without further ado, I’ll leave the word to my collegue:

When you’ve read the guide, you’ll see that it is recommended to get a mage to teleport you to one of the two cities, where you can freeze your XPs.
If you don’t know a mage, this can become a problem, because you cannot even send gold to yourself to pay for the service. So I propose that you instead, right after having created your lvl 1 char, attack the nearest beast, let yourself getting killed, and then move to one of those cities as dead. Then log off, and log back in, and rez at the angel.
