AoE Grinding post 2.3Follow

Hello fellow mages. Just something that I've been curious about.

I currently have a lv50 Mage and, have AoE Ground...Grinded... um...whatever. since lvl 40.
It was going pretty good only slowing down a bit now when all the Pirates are green to me. I am almost to the point where I would pack up my Hearth and head off to the Plaguelands.

But then I got to wondering. Would I be better off changing up my spec a bit to a less AoE talent set and then just questing out my remaning time in Azeroth? Just curious if anyone else has/is experienceing the same thing. AoE grinding was going great for me. When I could get the camp to myself I would really rake in the exp and the loot from all the drops.

I know that the exp to lvl was lowered but the quest exp was also raised. Think I would get more for my time invested just questing? Anyways, open to any opinions.

I had been doing aoe grinding from about 42 to 57, then finished the last 3 levels with quests right after the patch. My advice, is that if you want Argent Dawn rep and/or rewards, aoe grind the plaguelands. Be warned, it can be some work to actually get the rewards, especially with outlands right there. But grinding for rep to Honored is the best way to get started.

But to answer your real question: quests are now faster than aoe grinding. Except in the few levels that a camp is perfect between danger and exp gain, even with rested exp quests often beat out grinding.
