I've done all of Mount Hyjal and first 3rd of Stonecore, and the collection quests all drop one for each character now. It's really nice. Leveled guild from 4-6 in that same period of time. And all my toons are lvl 84 now (started at 80). I wonder if Hunter range limits being removed will change group setups. They could really add to a melee group now, couldn't they?
I'll have to try, but the BElf starter zone didn't get updated, but I'm thinking the Draenei would have?
I wanted to throw in a confirmation about low level quests counting for guild XP. Basically any level appropriate quest you complete on any character of any level will yield 60,000 guild XP. So your level 1 character completing a level 1 quest is just as contributory as your level 70 character completing a level 70 quest.
Also, yeah, it seems like the blood elf and draeni starting areas don't work with the "everything drops one for every character" but every other zone I've been able to try does seem to in Azeroth and Cataclysm. Someone mentioned that the drops work in Outland, and I assume it's the same as Northrend, so we should be good!
Anyone happen to know how much EXP you need to get from 1-25?Quote:

Info is from mmo champ forums
So are u suggesting, doing all quests to 1 to 25 for guild xp? and then just deleting the toons and start again?
So whats the best zone for horde to do that? Goblins?
I don't particularly think that the rate of quest turn in 1-25 is faster than the rate of quest turn in at higher levels, so I don't think it would make sense to delete. Probably the best strategy, now that dailies are unlimited and looting quests work for boxers would be to do a lot of dailies. You get gold, you get rep (ha!), you can do them extremely fast, etc.
The only benefit of the low level questing being so good now is that when you start a new team you aren't slowing down your guild progress, which is always something I had to balance in my head when deciding what group to level.
Also, I think any repeatable quest - reputation turn-ins for Aldor/Scryer would be very fast, though I have yet to test that since I don't have a character at that level right now to test it with.
So this isQuote:

Hannibal is talking about guild levels not character levels. Shodokan asked how many quests it takes to get a guild to level 25 (unless I'm completely misreading that).
Math for multiboxers:
14,095 / 5 = 2,819 Quests
14,095 / 4 = 3,524 Quests
14,095 / 3 = 4,698 Quests
14,095 / 2 = 7,048 Quests
Yeah, we're all talking about guild xp and levels, not sure where the idea of character levels came in.
2819 quests means its still gonna take some time to get to 25, but at least its alot more viable now than it was. Last night i took a brand new horde team in a guild that had 27k total xp, and went from level 1-7 and had almost 4m guild xp. Pretty sweet in my opinion, once I can devote more time to that team I can start making some real headway on the guild leveling. FYI the 27k guild xp was all pre-patch, so not sure where that was from. Does anyone know what the guild xp rates are for boss kills and battlegrounds now?
I suspect the simplest answer was that it wasn't high enough on the priority list until they got major new features done. Lately (i.e. Cataclysm forward), the shift has been towards retention efforts with subs dropping, so they're adding focus to make the game more fun a.k.a. less tedious all around. Some of these efforts are working great (group loot of quest items, etc.) and some not so much (dumbed-down talent options).Quote:

was 1-7 character level in about a half hour, got 4m guild xp in that time.
Thinking of getting that add-on also.
Looks like 46500 for heroics and 31000 for non-heroic.Quote:

looks like questing is the way to go, with more xp per shot and usually you do quests faster than you kill bosses.Quote:

My shammies where at about 70% before the patch, now they are 1 XP away from dinging, although I'm not quite sure my memory is serving me right. But the reduced XP thing I'm 100% sure about, I wrote the XP down before the patch, and checked it afterwards.Quote:

I did 80-85 just last week and it was about 2 hours a level, 3 for 84-85 with the new collection quest looting system. You still have to pick up items off the ground separately, but they seem to spawn more if you are in a group, I had no problem doing the quest 4x in 10 minutes.
