I see numerous posts exploiting the Anguish quest chain, offering random and various AoE leveling spots, and numerous quest guides. None of these AoE guides appear to be for level 77-80, and most of them have faded off due to Blizzard hot fixing, or reducing mob XP by half, such as they did with

that great spot.
As I am never a fan of questing, and am an avid fan of AoE farming and botting, I will share a spot that I find to be great for XP/Gold, if you are AE leveling in Northrend at 77+
Breakdown:
The mob:
Library Guardian
Library Guardian - NPC - World of Warcraft
-Nearly an 80% drop rate on grey items, which vendor for ~20s.
-Nearly a 30% chance at dropping relics of Ulduar, which on my server, go for 3g ea. Can also be used to raise Sons of Hodir rep.
PLUS if you're an engineer you can harvest the mobs
The area:
Located directly north of the Crash Site.

A couple over head shots with examples of the mob pulls, and radar pings indicating the mob numbers.

The mobs are generally in close proximity of each other, and easy to round up.
You will find 4 good chains of 8-10 mobs you can grab, then restart your loop. Spawn rate is decent for level 80s. If you're leveling, due to your slower kill rate, you'll appreciate the spawn rate a lot more than a more geared farmer would.
Go at it and have fun, for what its worth i find this to be the equivalent of an average quester, if you sit down and are dedicated to it.
