5 dk leveling

[khantuz]

Hey guys. Any advice on spec and how long leveling takes compared to 5 hunters?

Honestly, since you're probably going to just be questing to level, I would just say play the spec you like the most. With 5x no quest mobs should give you any real trouble in any spec. I don't see them being all that much different to level than hunters, in terms of time needed.

I posted here about my spec on my 5 DKs.

but,

I run 5 Blood DKs for farming and questing. I MOW through mobs and usually stay above 95% health.

I'm lazy and use this Gnome Sequencer macro when farming/questing (scroll down to his v2)

As for hunters, I haven't levelled the hunters much in this expansion, but, I like not having to deal with pets.

Back to DKs: I just use Azeroth Auto Pilot and mow my way through the quests, also jumping into dungeons from time to time (I grab my Prot Paladin if I want to quick queue). I can pull an entire area easily and have it down in 5-10 secs.

I also grabbed herbalism and mining and followed MiRAI's guid here to set up Interact with Mouse Cursor to loot:

With rested XP, I'm getting over 3k xp per node per toon. I don't necessarily go out of my way to grab a node, but, it adds up pretty quick and you get stuff to sell or use!

I run with War Mode on as well. Only really been annoyed once by a rogue that kept vanishing and sapping one of my DKs then disappear and do it again. Most other faction leave me alone. War Mode adds up to a level over the course of your levelling from 110-120, so if you can deal, it's a great way to go.
PLUS, your DKs get 3 nice auras in War Mode that add to your damage and such

Hope that helps!

I leveled my first set of Dk and Blood with no problem, as far as hunter I have not leveled them yet.

If you're leveling in war mode keep in mind you are a lot more powerful and things die faster.

Without war mode its not just 10% slower from less experience, you have to pull less mobs and they take longer to kill, its quite a slow grind.
