Really? 5 days /played to 70? I didnt start "boxing" until I had 60's and 70's, and my quickest to 60 was 6 days. I wonder if I can get 5 chars to 70 in under 8 days played.

I'm just gonna level my 2 locks, 2 mages, 1 priest until 30, then ditch a lock for my already lvl30 pally. Heroics here I come.

Hes mistaken, without some sort of serious assistance and an aoe class you will not hit lvl 70 in 5 days. I believe the record for lvl60 is still 4 days 20 hours isnt it?

Though with the newest patching coming up making the leveling process easier I cant say for sure how that would go.

..no mistake just take the time to set up your pl'ers and anyone can do it...Id assume thats how the "paid for pling" grps do it, but I dont know.. You get full xp for all kills at a hugely accelerated rate. (the 4 day thing to 60 was totally solo if i remem right? could be wrong thinking it was a rogue?) Just think of it this way... solo xp for a trio kill rate. Also means I hit 70 in nagrand and have the last 3 zones to grind quest for gold and epic flyers if so inclined.

I'm still going to level my whole group of 5, but I'm not sure I'm following your method. How exactly do you get full XP at triple the rate? If you have an ungrouped healer, you have no downtime, so you might be leveling in 80% of the normal time. But, if you do any damage to the target with the ungrouped high level player, you're losing out on XP.

Not if the mob would normally give the ungrouped player exp.

[boxer]

no, you still get decayed exp even if you tag the mob first and the high level is ungrouped.

[Dor]

sorry but youre not right box..if the mob is green or better to the one doing dps the tagger gets the full xp.. this is from lvl 1 to 70

edit.. lowbie is ungrped and tags mob... the dps and healer can be grped together but only the dps (the one the mob is green to) can dps the mob

I cart around a 70 priest or 70 druid thru 30ish then a 70 priest only (thorns add a lot of dps early on) for healing

and a mage for dps (lvl determined by what lvl mobs the ungrped lowbie im lvling can tag)

[Gallo]

The tagger does not get full XP. I just tried it out with my group of 2 mages (grouped) at lvl 14, and my priest at lvl 70 (ungrouped). A normal lvl 14 mob gave 62xp for killing it with just the mages. If I killed it with my priest when it got to 50%, they only got 38xp.

Stop RPing someone thats colorblind please.

[Dor]

heh you guys arent understanding what im saying..think Im typing hebrew or something....


ok...

you have 2 grps:

ungrped nubsauce is grp 1 (in this case he's lvl 34)

grp 2 is a lvl 70 priest and a lvl 40 mage


grp 1 tags lvl 34 mob (which is the lowest lvl green to the mage if i remem right) the lv 40 MAGE and the mage only dps's the mob down and the grp 1 gets full credit....at no time does the priest do any dps of any type to the mob... the mob isnt green to the lvl 70 therefor kills the xp. The priest can however cast hex of weakness on the mob (any debuff as long as it doesnt do any damage this means even 1 point of damage to the mob)

-- if the nubsauce tags a lvl 33 mob then the lvl 40 mage cant help dps it down since it isnt green to him, if he does the xp is jacked..

-- I find that it works best when nubsauce tags a grp of lvl 36 mobs (2 lvls higher) and then 40 mage ae's them down the 2 lvl diff seems to be the fastest range to gain xp not sure if that's scientific just how it feels to me.

and once again..IF you follow these rules the nubsauce gets full 100% solo xp

First of all Dor tvm for the info

To the people who have no idea what Dor is talking about: Try actually reading Dor's Post before replying.

To Dor: Ty again for the info. I've been lvling 1priest and 4mages and its been anoying the @%$% out of me that 1 of the mages had 15% less exp then the other guys. Fixed it in 10mins . I actually saw the exp go up 3%-5% from killing just one group at lvl 52. Which got me thinking, if you set up a group of mages at (10 20 30 40 50 60 70) with a healer, I think it would be possible to reach lvl 70 in less then 2-3 days. Unfortunately I dont have the time or the patience to do that. But would be fun.

Your are now second in my hero list
1st = xzin
2nd = Dor

[Gallo]

Ohhh I see the light now. Dor, thats why you have a mage at every 10 levels... if the ungrouped person helping out is close to the level of the nub character, he probably gets full XP. A lvl 70 1 shotting a mob with a lvl 34 would probably result in 1/2 xp.

[boxer]

ok when i meant high level i meant 70.

But yeah, i see Dor.
