Wowzers.

I've gotten so used to 1 blue per hour, no matter the group or the zone, on my rogue, that the thought of measuring xp in yellows seems ridiculous. Lol. Only time I've earned xp faster than that since 50 was duo with a necro in BW, but too many light blues there now [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

So my favorite way to level as an enchanter is to find backstabbing rogue mobs and either fearkite or group with a tank/healer and just drop things at an alarming rate. With that in mind the spots I've found leveling up to the low 50's so far:

1. Unrest. The barkeep backstabs and can be used to duo/trio the whole upstairs.

2. Mistmoore. Mistmoore is an enchanters paradise, besides being great exp, lots of low HP mobs, always people around to group with, etc. There are numerous backstabbing mobs. The Dark Elf Initiates in leather armor (male or female) which can be found from the entranceway up to right before the pit backstab and are easy to charm. Once these get too low and you move to castle entrance groups, the gypsy dancer pulled from the ballroom backstabs. Additionally, the gypsy musicians all backstab too, however they have a major disadvantage in that every night they despawn and turn into werewolves (so you lose the pet automatically every PM). The dancer doesn't do this. This means MM can take you from 20-40 in very short order as mobs can be killed at an alarmingly fast rate with your quadding, backstabbing, hasted pet in small groups.

3. Spirocs in TD. The Spiroc provens (which are the highest level basic mobs) backstab for around 312 dmg and quad w/ weapons for 104. You can fearkite these and basically just drop every bird in the zone at a sickening rate. I did it with a cleric mostly, also tried with a necro and druid, it all worked well.

Aww OK. I guess I should mention

froglok Zol knights are L42 to L46
froglok Dar knights are L43 to L49
froglok Bok knights are L45 to L50
froglok Krup knights are L48 to L52

According to Allakhazam in 2012. I trust them Bok knights the best from experience, at my level 55, all the same =] Watch the wanderers tho.

Pirate Cartographers in FV - backstab for 192 and triple for 63ish. Also, they usually come with a weapon already so worst case scenario you need to find 1 more wep for them.

Head over to the lone rock along the coast to where Tracker Azeal is (he is usually kneeling), pull using tash and fear. Hasted pets without any other added DPS require 1 of this type of fear before pet kills them:

Pirate (lower level): Fear.
- higher: Chase the moon
Drolvarg Savages: Fear
Drolvarg Growlers: Chase the moon.
Drolvarg Snarlers: Chase the moon with possible Fear thrown in towards the end depending on duration.
Pirate Cartographers (lower): Fear.
- higher: Chase the moon.
Pirate Destroyers: Chase the moon.


If you pull them closer to the coast (at least past the tracker) they will usually stay running around and just do circles. If you fear them past the rock they will run straight out into the great yonder.

At 38 I am getting 2.5 oranges/hour chain pulling - solo. Remember: this is with the pet taking 50% xp.

Why are you eating the pet penalty instead of mem blurring and finishing mobs off?

Costs me 30 mana to fear and in 1 cast they're dead. Can do it more sustainably with a greater amount of loot and at a greater speed. I just suggest duo - can do big things like that.

Sorry, that was a shit job explaining it.

It takes me 20m to pull and between 30 (fear) and 70 (chase the moon) to fear it long enough for the rog pet to beat it down. So I'm looking at between 50 and 90m per kill. Multiply by 2 and you get between 100 and 180 mana per 100%xp.

If I mem blur, we're looking at 20 to pull, between 30 and 70 to fear successfully, 40m for blur and between 70 to 150 to nuke. Total for this is between 160 and 240 for 100%xp.

First one is faster, yields more loot and can be sustained fairly easily for max results. As always, the best way to eliminate the pet taking half is to get a partner. Better to share with someone else than Ms. Cartographer.

Happy hunting.

Would also like to throw this out that Goblin Stalgknights in Nurga make amazing pets. They are SK's and proc Vampiric curse almost every swing. In addition, the only REAL casting they do is their 5pt lifetap which is an almost instant cast so you don't really have to worry about reduced DPS as a result.
