Tap Leveling the fastest way to level?

[blbjtb]

As I have mentioned before Im currently leveling my Paladin (74) So here is what im wondering... Yet again. Im thinking if I put him with the shamans (4) of them who are all level 80. OOG obviously my xp would shoot up correct? So i was thinking of the best place to do this and I though of the place in dragonblight in the north with all the huge worm things (cant think of the name sorry) that would be great because they are all Elite mobs. Can anyone think of a faster way to level or is this pretty much the best? Also can anyone think of a place with higher level elites for this to work?

Thanks in advance!

I think this method has been nerfed to being unusable.

...and I seem to recall Blizzard considering this an exploit now too? (probably wrong here)

Instancing in this fashion is bannable.. They did nerf it to where the experience is calculated based on anyone that damages the mob. You could try with totems damage only cuz they may be looked at like pets instead of people.

Just quest its stil faster or run instances.

So its now bannable Geez lol ok back to the drawing board.

Inside an instance they have suspended players for doing it.

Outside of an instance it's fine.

There has been no nerf - it's always been as I'll describe below:

There are 2 rolls involved, Tapper and Killer. As long as the MOB is GREEN or higher to the KILLER the Tapper will get 100% xp for killing the mob. If the mob is not green, then the XP is split based on damage to prevent a level 1 from tapping a level 80 mob and the 80 killing it for them.

At 74 if you can find a ready supply of 80 mobs that give XP you should be able to tap n kill them easily for great XP. Finding the supply outside of an instance is the hard part.

in instances it is 3days bannable i think thats what that youtube dude got, Doing it out of instance is not bannable i think, 2 of my frinds did some amazing speedleveling in icecrown, were the lowbie was a prot paladin 77, aoe pulled alot of mobs, the other dude was i a druid out of the grupe he healed him and aoeed the mobs when the pala had tagged them, thay did 77-80 in about 4hrs

I'd just solo quest, and use the shamans for firing support, out of party. just do all the quests you can find, especially group quests. If you already have an 80 on that acct, get the cold weather tome to make it faster. Also, do the instance quests at the paladins level, the shamans will nuke everything, you get decent exp, and good loot and quest rewards.

It's a shame you cant do AV like you used to, mixing 80s with 71+, that was what I was gonna do...

Do the above but at level 74 you can also do the out of party technique and just mass grind mobs. I did it with my DK when I leveled him from 55-80 in 3 days (Real Days). There are 5 camps of human melee mobs in Dragonlight which you can just tap and then destroy with your shamans. With your pally just run him in tank spec and just gather as many as you can and just consecrate. After a second or two once you tap them just destroy them with your shamans. Use CL and TS mostly, as you will get reduced XP if you use straight totems.

Do this till 77 and then get flying and head to Icecrown. In Icecrown there is a part that is like NW section that is all open ground with groups of again 7-10 melee mobs (Those chained hero guys) that you can do the same thing to 80 with. Only odd ball monsters here are the casters which easy die anyways and grounding negate any damage they do.

Did you start doing these mobs at level 55? Or did you do other mobs?


And can someone explain this a bit more? Some people mension using shaman(s) and it gets kinda confusing :P

One of the best places I've found to do this is in dragonblight, the scarlet encampment just NW of naxx. LOTS of human mobs in decent sized groups on a quick reset timer. They really aren't there for much either so they aren't being killed very often. I did a few million xp/hr there while burning all my unused rested xp on my rogue while power questing him.
