Battleground XP (150k per 10 min)

[Daeity]

I've found that a LOT of people still aren't aware of the massive amount of experience you can gain with the new BG changes (over the past couple weeks, 80's are still surprised to learn that they can level their alts in BGs). I haven't seen any other information posted about this, so I figured I would share this with the MMOWNED community.

(If you're already aware of this, please skip this info.)

The best BG for gaining XP is currently Alterac Valley. I've been levelling my alts at a rate of 150,000 - 175,000 xp every 9-12 minutes in AV. This is probably the fastest method to level outside of the old instance AOE approach. I also get roughly 1800-2000 honor per game, which can be turned in for 80 PVP gear or the new epic gems (which cost 10,000 honor each.)

You'll be able to level your 70's to 80 easily in one day. I'm suspecting that this will probably be patched by Blizzard however..

Each Tower Cap, Boss Kill, and Tower Hold rewards roughly 17-20k XP depending on your level. The trick is though, to ensure that you win every time. Jump into AV and see for yourself, if you win you'll see an increase of 2-2.5 bars of XP each time.

However, I would recommend that you check your Realm Forums and see if there are any AV Pre-Mades available that you can join. They're very simple, just jump on Vent and listen to instructions - if you follow your objectives, you'll win every AV match (occasionally a "Perfect AV" (Achievement) if the leader changes up strategies.)

If you are Horde and on the US Cyclone Battlegroup, the following AV-Premade is very active:
> Xrealm Premades / Easy honor / Need Vent - no addons / Multiple AV Premades / No groups needed - pst for info
> VENT - 8.9.2.167 - PORT 3812 // Name Format: Name / Server

[You'll see posts on your Realm Forums advertising the vent info as well.]

The rules have recently been changed however. They used to allow any levels in, but some of the members were complaining. Now, if you're a guest you'll need to bring in a 78+ alt, but if you're a member 75+ are fine. Lower levels they will often allow (ie, a well geared 70 can out-DPS an 80 in trashy blue/greens for example), as long as you're non-fail and you follow instructions. (It also depends on who is leading the group though, Spazzer is the best and is pretty fun to listen to. Just keep your mouth shut. =] )

You can join for free (Guest), and come-and-go as you please. However, there are sometimes long wait times depending on the time of day you join.

You can gain full membership (meaning you skip the queue and can jump right in), by paying $5 IRL on www.xrealm-premades.net (I know I know, but it's actually a really good service and worth it), or you can pay in Gold in game (depends on server, but ranges from 800 to 2000G).

One bonus is that if you're a Member, the owners will allow you to collect gold yourself on the servers (higher if you have no competition). You can charge any amount you want and keep the gold, but you would need to pay their $5 (Paypal, CC, etc) for their membership. For example, 5000 Gold (which people WILL pay for this service.)

Hope this helps guys. Normal/random AV matches are fine, but I find that the Horde Cyclone group loses a lot (because of the terrain unbalances and distances. Alliance side was definately favoured by Blizz for this BG.) If you're Alliance, just ignore this post.. but if you're Horde and you want to level your alts fast, check out the vent as a Guest for a couple weeks and see if the full service is worth your while.

But I figured you have actually added a lot of useful info about premades so I can't be too harsh. It is a slight repost though.

[Mgerg]

Does this work with say.. 60-70/80's (Read most but.. Grey wall of text Crits you for 9999.99 :/

[Rohi]

If you get honor from tower cap and def, could you actually just do that the whole game with someone? ;b

And 100% battlegroup/faction dependant.

[Da Hitman]

this is eu or us or both?

[Smygelito]

do you need to be in some kind of range to a tower when it is being taken to get exp or can you just anti-afk and achive the same amount of massive exp?

[xRANDYx]

I wonder if this still work can anyone confirm please?

[tykoll]

Yes still works I'm level 74 on my do toon and get 20-30k per cap

[Sylese]

You can stay anywhere in the bg for the exp. Tower destroyed is about 19k. Captain is about 19k. The amount of towers left at the end of the bg for your faction is 19k for lvl 79.

[Daeity]

do you need to be in some kind of range to a tower when it is being taken to get exp or can you just anti-afk and achive the same amount of massive exp?

Yeah, you an anti-AFK. If you're in the BG you get all XP that everyone else gets no matter where they're/you're located.

Since there are more 70's in the BGs, there are more upset players and they're tagging everyone AFK.. so be careful. Remember, if you're reported you have to fight (not just move) to remove the flag.

Too bad AV on EUcyclone is getting raped by allys. My record is two wins in a row...

[Daeity]

this is eu or us or both?

All servers, both EU or US. It's all part of the new patch, not an exploit or anything. They just wanted players to be able to level via PVP instead of just the old PVE method.

The XP rate is a bit high though, I'm levelling very quickly so it will probably be nerfed (unless this was their intention.)

[Daeity]

I wonder if this still work can anyone confirm please?

Yup, still works.. doing it right now on my toon.

The only thing that would change are the XP rewards, but nothing announced by Blizzard as to changes. I'd take advantage of it while you can though.

Any levels that can enter BGs can level via PVP objectives.

And 100% battlegroup/faction dependant.

I suppose if we had enough folks, we could create a MMOWNED premade. Strategies are easy, just need vent server, and a list of everyone's battlegroups - determine which one(s) has the largest following from here. =]
