The most reliable mid-40s solo camp for a Mage is spectres in Oasis, I think. The five ground-level spawns can be cleared before repops, consuming sufficiently little mana to keep this cycle going indefinitely.
I don't know how long the respawns are, but 9-11 minutes feels right.
Reasonably speaking, a Mage requires about 2-3 minutes of meditating to regenerate enough mana to come out ahead relative to what is required for the next pull, rebuffs, etc.
In other words: in the 2-3 minutes it takes for a Mage to kill one mob and prepare for the next--that is, real grinding, not simply draining your mana bar to kill as quickly as possible--a group could easily bring in 2-3% exp. I did it tonight at BNB myself.
Ceteris paribus, grouping is faster.
