Fighting enemies even 2-3 levels below is a waste...too much downtime. Greens are the way to go. Faster, more money, and no downtime (casters will always have downtime due to their mana...it'll be much less though).

I went to Scarlet Monastery on my priest and warrior at 36 and didn't fuckin leave until they were both 41-42. My warrior solo'ed in Arathi until 44 and now I'm in the Uldaman phase where every dumbass fucking fuckwit all form together to die at the first boss everyday. It's good EXP but man I hate dying. This game has the biggest bunch of idiots I've ever seen in a single location.

Interesting. I did a little bit of the opposite. I solo'ed Arathi (besides Stromgarde) until 37 when there wasn't any more quests. Now I'm in Stranglethorn and plan on heading to SM pretty soon when I can do a little more of the work and not have to rely on the idiots you're talking about

I totally know what you're saying about downtime though. I enjoy killing lvl 34-35's and getting 190 unrested rather than having tons of downtime between killing 37's for however much more. At 38 I get to use my donkey-knocker epic mace though so I'm hoping to be able to kill even levels as fast as I was able to kill lower
