I was grinding for lowbie loot in the Barrens the other day when i happened to notice that you can shoot a mob while looting a dead corpse. Just do as follows:

1. Kill a mob (obviously)
2. Target a different mob
3. Shoot an Arcane shot, Serpent Sting, or any other instant cast shot at the mob
4. Immediately after firing, loot the corpse; you should fire an autoshot as you loot

*note* You can only fire off 1 autoshot while looting; I suggest that you have a lot of free room in your inventory so you can autoshot/loot all without missing a beat

This has been tested by me personally and it's relatively easy to do; I find it helpful for those serious grinding sessions.

Good luck, people!

kool but no offense.....wats the point i mean i already have a 1.43 shooting speed and kill things within 2-3hits i can just get another off and loot both

If you're a hard-core grinder that makes every second count this is a nice tip; it saves roughly .5-1 second from looting every corpse, which seems low, but over time that adds up.

ok lets think about it fard-core grinders...
lets say u save 5 sec every kill by doing this:
12 loots = 1min
120 loots = 10min
lets say u get 120 kills/hr while grinding
so that means that after 3 hours of hardcore grinding you have saved 30min. (i know its a very rough estimate, but makes u think).

Also, send your pet to attack a mob while you're eating/drinking.

If you send your pet while eating, you wont regen health, seeing as you're in combat. Atleast that's how it is for me.
You can still regen mana though

This trick works a bit better if you're a Marksmanship specced Hunter .. I know, my Main is using that specialization. ^_^
