Anyway, there has always been this question of "Should I grind or should I quest to get to level 70?"
Well, there is a real easy answer to that question, but it's solved by mathematics.
The XP required from 1-70 is currently at: 10,847,000 or, an average of 154,000 per level.
My leveling time of 5 days 8 hours, put me at an average of
84,742xp per hour.
The average xp you will gain from a mob over the 70 levels works out at 252.36xp per mob you kill (starting at 50 at level 1 and
finishing at 585 at level 70)
Keep in mind that this has all been averaged out, leveling xp per hour in the early levels is far lower in the end (I think I was getting
6k/hr in level one and 70 I finished around 260k/hr)
Now, if we take this 252.36 figure, that means you would have to kill
336 mobs an hour, that's 5.6 a minute. It might be possible to do this for the first few levels, but try doing this as a Rogue
or Hunter or Warrior or anything at level 30. It won't happen consistently.
The only classes that this is even remotely possible on is maybe mages (downtime has to be taken into consideration too) and that's a big maybe
