Leveling insanely slow

[Kalyse]

So I have just done my first set of team to 68 and I'm about to switch onto the next team and do it again.
I figured I would keep all the characters levels relatively close. 1-60 is wave 1, 60-68 phase two, etc. Anyway, after completing 60-68, I never managed ot average more than 120k an hour.

This is surely really poor? I tried, Questing and instances. Sethekk halls I think was the best at 140k but I had to work hard for that. Is this the XP that I should be expecting or am I just being slow?

I can't PVP... Whenever I join we just lose cause I take up 5 valuable slots and epicly fail.


I just do random instances, but should I stick to a particular instance, which do you find it better?
I just did 1x Paladin, 4x Shaman, but I am about to do either Druids or Priests next.

Why stop at 68. 1-60 again would be painful. Keep trucking from 68-80, it is not that slow. mix up the questing with instance. Don't forget to level gathering + enchanting along the way. The true pain would be to have 10+ level 80s and realized you have 0 professions on them and go back to level professions.

The key here is not to get burned out. and focus on 1 group at a time.

If you still have RAF time, I'd get lots of combos (anything you might want to play, down the road) to 60th.
And then use your RAF granted levels, before RAF expires.

Once you have every combo you might want to play.
Or your RAF time expires...

You can focus on one team at a time.
Which gets you the most time between having to repeat an area.

Or you can bounce between teams.
So you always use rested experience.

Either works, and is a preference call.

How much do you guys get an hour in XP at the 60s up to 70.

I have a pally/shammy team right now at 65, and they're getting around 120k per hour, and have been so far in Outland.

I thought I was running slow too, but I guess it's right on target.

Download some good TVshows and enjoy the lvling :)

Collection quests tank your xp/hour but I don't really see a good way around it. Boosting gets you more xp/hour if you're only leveling 4 or fewer but it also doesn't unlock many factions/reps or quest chains. /shrug

I can't PVP... Whenever I join we just lose cause I take up 5 valuable slots and epicly fail.
I only use all five toons in wintergrasp. In BGs I only use more than one toon in Alterac valley and Isle of
conquest (usually two or three toons in those). When I play other BGs I do them with one toon each time.

Usually I join random BG with a party, when it pops up I join with one char first to check which BG it is. If
its AV or Isle, I join with the others as well. :)

You could try Wintergrasp and Alterac Valley, as your group.
In the larger PvP battles, having five toons in one place is not much of an issue.

You'll get some honor, win or lose.
Which will eventually get you better gear, which definitely helps.
Playing with your team, will also make you better at it.
In particular look to your weaknesses, and practice/devise ways to be stronger in those areas.

Over time you'll improve.
Once your five toons (or any number really), are as strong as an equal number of individual players, then smaller BG's might be an option too.
If you have Path of Frost, for example, you can control Stables, Blacksmith and Farm in AB.

How much do you guys get an hour in XP at the 60s up to 70.

here are my numbers @68 (all without rested xp):

Rhinos 250k/hr (4 shamy @80 boost 4 lowbies)
Dungeon 200k/hr (1 pala @80 boost 4 lowbies)
Quest 180k/hr (4 lowbies)

In my experience, xp/hr doesn't really matter, its fun/hr that counts :)

Mix and tke it easy...

Well I think at 68 you just might be able to do the camp in dragonblight with the 5 camps of soldiers. Basically unlimited mobs as when you get done clearing the last camp the first has repoped. Its near Naxx I think, in the north east part of the zone.

If the mobs are to high for you there then I think that the stairs at the training camp in the outland zone way to the right lol ... just go to my web site you can see where both spots are.

I just run to the mobs now but you might have to make a camp and pull to the camp like in EQ.

Just get lots of HIT on your gear if you can't hit the mobs at the dragonblight camp. Just pull and aoe.

But AV is this week I think and its like 100 times more fun.

If you are around 68 and Alliance, the starting town of Valgarde is constantly attack by the Vrykuls. Just stand there, Tab(sometimes multi-targets), and mash the same range spell. The I forgot if its 1 or 2 hours per level with rested bonus.

Do the Banner quests mobs give xp? Like the Battel for Crusader's Pinnacle. I know that you can throw all 5 out at the same time.

I found 60-70 pretty fast and easy. 70-80 I found to be as painful as chewing on broken glass.....single or multiboxing.

I LOL'd. I have 11 80's right now:
One (old solo main) has maxed mining.
One has maxed skinning...is there anything easier to level than skinning?
One has enchanting at 326... for the DE's only, but even that needs to be 375 to really be useful.


I have played these two teams for over a year and it's to painful to think about leveling professions on them now, even with all the clamor over multi-Alch xmutes and the rivers of gold it pours into your personal guild bank.

Oh well, maybe now that I've come out about no profs I'll be embarrassed into leveling them up.......... nope. Not a chance lol.
