Well, interesting thoughts. I'd really like to see a quest guide for 1-40 though... or a screenshot of /played... after personally boosting in ~5 hours for L40, I don't think it's possible to match that through questing. I do believe questing is more efficient past a certain point, I think 50+ for sure - knocking out the WPL quests would be better XP than boosting in Strat/Scholo, turning in undead bits at EPL at L55 is an instant 2 levels pretty much. I don't know about 40-50, maybe cherry-picking kill quests in Tanaris and Hinterlands is faster than boosting in ZF but I'm not convinced. But from 10 -> 40 I don't believe there's any possible way that questing can beat it out. There's simply too much time spent running about even if you do cherry pick the quests.

BUT, I'd love to see otherwise as I have some more alts to level up yet and would like to do so in the most time-efficient way possible.



I will however respectfully disagree that questing is less effort than boosting. While boosting I do nothing but zone in and kill stuff. When you quest even if you're doing only select quests and moving in the most efficient route possible, you have to move around and click on NPCs with your alts to turn in quests and so forth. Some instances I don't even have to move my alts from the zone-in, it's just go through and kill with my Paladin then zone out and reset and repeat. EZ mode.
