Today I brought to you a leveling guide that way totally busted. So now I am fixing it a bit. Instead we also going to alter it right now to do levels 1-20.

This guide is all about how long it takes to level while grinding mobs. This is boring but not to bad for lower levels. I did this guide with a Priest only and with Rising Tide as my only Damage dealer maxed out. This is very important because a Priest is NOT a DPS in comparison to a Mage/Rouge/Scout. This is also WITHOUT turning in the Dailys that Drop off them.


Levels 1-3 (8-12 minutes) 880xp
Area: Howling Mountains ; Mobs: Wolves/Fungus (1-3 Level Range) ; Actual time: 11m40sec
Pretty straight forward here. Got about 18 daily drops (didnt turn them in)

Levels 4-6 (20-30 minutes) 2380xp
Area: North/West of Logar ; Mobs: Beetles(5-6)/Bats/Spider(5-7); Actual time: 25m5sec

Levels 7-10 (30min-1 hour) 4600Xp
Area: North of Logar Heading up to Barron Cave ; Mobs: Bats/Spiders/Wolves(6-8); Actual time 35m45sec
Wow so now we are dramatically cutting down the worth of this at least on my Priest

Levels 10-12 (1 hours) 8700xp
Area:Silverspring Entrance ; Mobs: Kobolds(10-12) ; Actual time: 1hour and 10min
Ok this is slow but I have around 140 Shabby Shoes I could have turned in on this one netting 292xp each daily for turning in.

Levels 13-15 (2-2.5 hours) 17400xp
Area: Sliverspring ; Mobs: Kobolds/Farm Guys; Actual time: 2hours
Holy junk tons of junk drops. Again I didn't pick up the silvermane or bandit killing quests this is pure grinding with my priest.

NOTICE after all this I come up with an average of 800XP per 10 minutes of killing. For the rest I am just going to do some math figuring since I have a base of what XP I am earning over a 15 Level trial taking the time it took and XP gained to come up with the 800 XP per 10 Minute Average on my priest.

Levels 16-18 (2-3 hours) 21500xp
I would have kept on with by doing Slivermanes and Bandits around this time. Let me know if you do this and come up with something different.

Levels 19-20 (4-4.6 hours) 35000xp
Area:Tagena/Aslan (spelling?) Very Nort of Silverspring ; Guardians/Marauders/Ant Eaters

TOTAL Levels 1-20 ~100660XP ~TIME=12.5 hours
Going on from that Lets Run Some Math! This works provided we maintain 800xp per 10 minutes. I don't if the xp changes by killing mobs in the upper levels as I am only level 25.

Levels 21-29 (70-80hours) 592000xp

Levels 30-39 ( 415-425 hours ) 3358000xp

Levels 40-50 (1780-1800 hours) 14382000xp

As you can tell Grinding is very uneffective although I am unsure as to if you were grinding and doing the daily quest associated with the mobs you are grinding how beneficial and how much that would cut down on the time. Any takers to do this math???
