That and even with RaF I found grinding past level 10 to be ... mortifying
Yup, past lvl 30, getting like 200 xp per mob kill, or handing in 5 quests at once after doing a quick circuit for about 15k xp each. Yea, grinding ftw.
Well at level 30 a different approach might be warrented we will see ...
There is no way I would even consider grinding like that, not a chance. It's going to take roughly 10 times the amount of time it would take to quest.Quote:

It'll take many times longer for each level once you get past the starting areas.Quote:

Past about 25 you won't find instant spawning mobs so it'll come down to time running between mobs, your xp rate will drop down to about the same as a group of 2-3 dps would get. If you are stopping to loot you will be slower then that 2-3 man group since your whole group stops to loot instead of 1/3 of it stopping. Grinding is pretty silly in wow, in this case it is silly x26.Quote:
But as you all say you need more killz per level as the levels get higher, BUT if your mana regen and damage per mana goes up proportionally equal to the number of extra killz you need then ...
Once you get to the level limit and have a good flow of money you can power level a profession to max in about 2 hours.Quote:
Went from 60 to 150 on tailor last night though heh ...
After reading your last few posts and checking out your progress(or lack thereof as the case may be) I have update the leveling meter I made for you.
1...5....10....15....20....25....30....35....40....45....50....55... .60....65....70...75....80....85....90....95....10 0
In case you are still clinging to the idea of grinding to level here is another chart for you..
60 - 494000
61 - 574700
62 - 614400
63 - 650300
64 - 682300
65 - 701200
66 - 734100
67 - 753700
68 - 768900
69 - 779700
70 - 815000
These are the levels you will be doing without RAF bonus. If you aren't used to questing by the time you get to this point that portal to outlands is going to be like a brick wall.
The xp per level in WOTLK may or may not be finalized but right now its 26,106,500 to go from 1-80. Good luck with that grind.
What you should have done is organised help from someone on these forums, split your guys up into teams of 4, and gottem them to run you through instances most the way to lvl 60. This method of boosting requires no actul skill from you apart from movement. Also, if you played about 8 hours a day doing this constantly, you would have a team to 60 every 3-4 days (26 - 36 hours of boosting).
In fact, if you had done this from the start, you would be lvl 60 now and in outlands (where the real learning begins) getting awesome gear. In return for this person running you through...well, 26x dailies is a lot of money, I'm sure you could have come to agree to a reaosnable price.
To each his own though :) if he's enjoying himself I don't see the harm. My question is and I vaguely recall this being answered somewhere in one of these threads, do you work or have you retired. If retired that would give you more time than the average person to level I guess :)Quote:

Although even retired you prolly wouldn't want to spend all day on wow lol
Fark, if I wasn't working, I'd be out playing golf or 10 pin bowling or hitting up the pool bars. Would be awesome. More time for a propper girlfriend too. As it is, my lifestyle doesn't fit one right now, maybe next year when I move.
But Sam...get yourself some boosting just to help you along a bit. Like get it up to 30 or something.
