Instance grinding vs quests

[Boylston]

The XP required per level has been reduced from L20-60, this includes L58-60... The concern that you'll "run out of quests" is just largely unfounded. I even skipped some collection quests that were particularly annoying and never had any issues.

Granted, I did a fair number of Ramparts runs with my shammies from 61-63, but I also basically completely ignored quests in Zangarmarsh. In my past experience, there's more than enough quests in the first few zones to carry you through to Nagrand at L64/65. After that, there is an even greater surplus of quests to level off of. The caveat there is that some of them are "group quests" that you may want help with. For example, Hellfire has a couple 58 quests for great gear/XP that you may need help on, but you should grab a main or guildie and have no problems. Another good example is the Ring of Blood line, which you can get at L65-- I *always* get a group together of friends/guildies to knock this out ASAP. I can see that you may need some grinding sessions if you elect to skip some collection quests AND these group quests.


Post 2.3 with my multiboxers, we were basically L60 by the time I completed all the gear quests that the team wanted. Post 60 is a little slower and there's no XP reduction in effect, but it's still easily doable with the many, many quests available.

Some of the things to look is if you have an alt or your main is leveling Enchanting. Instance grinding will gather you a lot more mats than questing will. The other thing is it helps having leveled a few times to 70 and having a leveling guide. Planning ahead those quest that have great drop rates or just plain old kill quest will go a long way. You don't want to completely avoid collection question but you have to weigh the XP gain/Reward vs. time. Can you gain just as much XP doing an instance over and over with better loot drops?

For my part I have leveled in Azeroth so many times now that I am just sick of doing the same quest for the tenth time again.

Hi

Leveled my shamans from 8-15 in 1 hour or so in RFC, manly because i need to take them in turns.

if i go level 1 char it takes shorter time... i usally level 2 lvls each pull.

from 11-15 with 1 char did take me around 10 min or so ..maybe less.

Iam 5 boxing..so can only take 3 at a time since i need my 70 paladin and 70 something to do it.

Kinda nice that my toons get full xp, as they would kill them alone.

But Icant tell you guys how I do that, its the way athene used to level 1 char to 1-70 ijn 1 day and 2 hours.
maybe some of you know already---- but want it to last until my 5 shamans get to 70 atleast=P
