I have leveled 17 characters to 70, and between them they have over 8000 aa's so i have some experience here. Even completely ignoring the hotspots atm know your eq expansion history. Luclin was designed with the lets make mobs harder by having them hit the same as velious mobs but give them more hp, and Planes of Power the theory was alot less hp than luclin but they hit alot harder, GoD and OOW gave us medium hp, and hard hitting, fast hitting fast running bastards lol.
The key to xping fast is fighting low hp mobs that dont run at low health. Please listen to me here, kunark is your friend with leveling fast. I have tried everything, and this is the fastest path for a warrior with druid pler (oh yeah you NEED a shammy if you want to keep going fast after lvl 35). I am assuming here that you had someone give you, or you bought some plat online, and have decent gear.
Best path: Make toon, get in the tutorial and get the charm, great stats for 4 min work, and you wont replace it for a while. Then get out of there, bind in pok, follow the stupid path and hail the chick at the library entrance, free level (should be 3 now) and get your twink gear on. From here I get buffs and port to field of bone for easy access tons of mobs killing spree.
The xp is stupid fast but dont kid yourself here, get to lvl 6 or 7 max, and get out! Swing by the trainer and smack the few points you have in something usefull, then click shar vahl stone and run over to the back entrance to Paludal Caverns. EVERYONE says omg you cant go to pc till liek lvl 15 omg!!1!
DO IT! the back side starts at like level 6 or 7 underbulks, just kill em all and keep going into the tunnel, in and right toward the other side of PC and by the time you even see a potag flag thingy you will be lvl 11 or 12. I just clear across to the shadowhaven side, do a few laps on potarg things and hit the badits (will be lvl 16 or 17 with less than an hour into the toon. Smack the badit camp, be mean and dont share you are a pl'ed twink, so act like it! Stay here till 22, 23 pushing it.
Now hit hotspots, which atm are all kunark which makes me have a happy face, because they are sissy hititng, low hp xp machines. OT by the water, ans slowly work towards the ramp, get to lvl 30 the beat it.
Now the bestest xp spot in all the world is City of mist. The mobs hit like a bard, have tiny hitpoints, and best thing ever? they never run (cept like one stupid named ghost thing) Pull like crazy, the ground floor of the zone is like 3 large rings, go in further for higher levels, and stay here till lvl 50! Great money, decent loots to sell or use, destroy all the stupid shammy no drop quest items.
Now get better gear cause you are outliving the twink crap you had at lvl 1, and head to veksar, stay here till 60, start to group if you are bored but stick with dps classes, you got heals covered, and if you listened and go that shammy you got buffs, and slows if you get named. DPS makes you lvl faster, slack ass healers and the like anre on there own.
After 60 lets face it as a warrior you will want to group, make friends, and get some damn raid gear cause you arent gonna tank shit with bazaar gear on. Have fun, listen to me and you will see lvl 65 in less than 4 days played.
