Mage Exp Questions

[Halius]

So wanted to throw another question out for my mage. I feel like lately I have been getting a bit more playing time but I still feel like I am leveling too slowly. I have tried soloing spots according to the guides on the wiki (there are only 2 guides) and crag spiders in EK are ok, but are netting about 1% or a little less per kill. I have tried ill omen near the windmill but it is about the same exp as the crag spiders. And I have also tired Oasis with crocs which are also about 1% per kill.

On one of the guides it is saying that in Oasis I should be netting about 2% per kill which I have yet to see anywhere I go, and also that I should be gaining about a level every 2 hours which I have not. Maybe I am just doing something wrong here but I was just wondering if anyone recommends any other spots to level. I have been keeping my max level pet out each time I play, I am not re-summoning on each pull to net the full exp but neither of the guides say to do that until like 39+.

Anyways, long winded post I just want to know if anyone has some other strategies I can use to level my mage more quickly. I just want to make the most of my time when I play and I feel like I am moving a lot slower than the norm. Thanks in advance for any feedback!
