Its also really super easy to pull scarabs. I dont show it in this video but from like 45 on I started pulling the entire scarab room (which you can probably do before 45). You simply wait until the boss is on the left side of the room patting around after you clear the graveyard. Pull a scarab with lightning or frost shock, start moving and Ghostwolf ASAP (improved ghostwolf). Run around the room and if you timed it right, the boss will never aggro. You then run back and jump into the corner safe spot you first go to when entering the graveyard. Jump on the statue and then up to the ledge quickly. If you make it up there before the scarabs reset you will pull them and kill them just like you do the zombies. You also have to keep the disease debuff on you they cast or it will screw up kiting them as some will stop and cast. It takes less than 5 minutes and yields another 7-15k XP depending upon your level. Don't forget your dynomite!

Awesome vid! I do this on my pally often, and just a little tip: That corner that you're jumping back and forth on, if you do it faster the mobs group up a lot easier, no earthbind totem needed. Just jumping back and forth really fast when the mobs are on the opposite corner (like what you see at 16:00) should cause them to keep pathing down and up the hill, making them group up really nice.

After running this from 43-53 I discovered several minor but helpful improvements: 1. Throw the dynomite slightly ahead of the group when they are on the platform side of the hill, not the rocky side of the hill. 2. Use Earth Shock in addition to chain lightning to get threat on the stragglers to speed things up. 3. No need to rush, if you run out of mana simply just hop back and forth with mana totem down and you will go positive. 4. It is not impossible to do without Improved Fire Totems specialization, but those points make it a lot easier. 5. EZ-Throw Dynomite Mk2 generates more threat than Mk1, and lets you use magma totem longer. 6. If mobs die on the hill where you cannot normally walk, you can still loot them. Mount up and jump parallel to the hill but do not move once you jump. Half of the time your character will glitch up there and you can just stand on the side of a nearly-vertical hill and loot things (thank you glitchy game)! 7. Flasks of Mojo are used to level Jewelry Crafting, so hold onto them maybe. 8. After you place the Nova totem, run back hugging the left side of the platform so you do not get smacked. 9. At the higher levels, you may need to throw flame shock on the zombies in the archway and even the boss, just do this by jumping/casting when behind the boss. 10. If you missed zombies but go to pull scarabs, you can grab them in your scarab-killing rotation for bonus XP. 11. If you go to kill scarabs, you need to kill the random patrol in that hallway that leads back. You can melee every one except Shadowhunter, keep him at range and drop a windwall totem, you will take MUCH LESS damage that way. 12. When killing scarabs, make sure you have their disease applied to you during the actual jump killing. 13. If you fall, you probably will die, but depending on where they are don't panic: ghostwolf and run back up the hill, drop slowing totem. 14. If you die at any point in this, Ankh is your best friend. If you ankh a few seconds after you die, you will till retain aggro on the mobs and do not need to re-pull things, but you will be left with little health and mana. You may want to do a reset regardless but up to you. 15. Even after you are done leveling, the graveyard and scarabs still makes between 6-18 gold a run (on average) and you do not necessarily need to use dynomite since you are not worried about threat. 16. You can sell ZF boosts but people usually just go to Mara.

Good job! I knew it was possible. I did this with a mage a few times just for fun and it worked really well.

I did this on a mage from like 46-53 I have a 35 shaman that needs to hit 60 for TBC cooldowns and will be doing this. Ty for the vid.

Want to add one thing that some have touched on: In classic and TBC, the xp of the mob will reset if its not hit within a certain amount of time. This means if get the mobs down to 75% and then you stop to group for another minute, you will only get 75% of the total xp. Their HP doesn't change, only the amount of total xp the player can expect to get. If you take them down to 25% and then have to stop to group them for a minute, you will now get only 25% of the xp from the total you're now at. This means if a mob has 100xp and it resets to 75xp, then resets again, you may only get 14-15 xp per mob as it resets on the current total. I've heard anywhere between 10-20 seconds, so make sure you're always damaging them, even if it's only a little bit to keep the xp gains from resetting.

Wow didnt expect that any class without mage can do this first pala and now shaman this is awsome man and the loot gives them all the crone good job man

Over 76k views didn't like OR dislike. Well played, making fire totes good.

Nice to see this Video in my recommendations. Will do this in as enhance Tank in SoD. Should be a cake walk with the gear and abilities

This is good, you need a mana spring totem at the spot whre you jump back and forward and it's perfect :) Currently doing it at 42 with no consumes

Nice guide, could have done with mouse cursor showing though. Another thought, the lightning helm from Gnomer could be amazing for initial agro on the mobs.

13:25 Pull starts

Yo! Tell Kabb its his boy Exhile here!

That it's your hunter in shadowlands as Waffle?

*This still works* . I'v been testing it for a couple of days when alone and combined with questing when not. *My findings so far are:* - I was able to get to the graveyard and pull the zombies *as low as level 41* , however i got aggroed *from afar a lot* while getting there *and the zombies did resist a lot* the earth totem slow. - The first time i got to do it successfully was at level 42. - Having a mail set ( whatever pieces you get from SM for example ) *with a shield* to run to the place and a int *spirit* set when doing the killing is very nice. - My *nova totem rank 4 deals 150 damage, 250 if crit* . And *magma totem rank 3 deals 25 damage, 35 if crit* . Making it much slower than on the video. This is with 45 spell power i got here and there ( totems do scale scale with sp, but poorly ), i also have 180 int and 120 spirit. - At higher levels when jumping over the boss, you got to shock the adds below or they sometimes ( most times ) wont move. - You also got to *stop several times while on the wall* , as to be sure that the adds follow you. 13:40 - You can start to juggle-jump at 13:50 to build the ball of mobs, then pull the remaining, making it so that when the new ones arrive they join the ball if you make them stay at this corner. - Im getting about 30k/xp per run, this should be 150k xp/hour if you are able to do the 5 resets; however it took me forever to even do one. - You can however logout and have somebody reset the instance when you are done, when back in you should be at the door to save some time. - Use mana totem at all times, its basicaly free mana. - As im leveling a draenei, use the racial if you get hit to heal every so often if you happen to get hit. - *Its a lot easier* to skip the first two-box safespot ( 2:35 ) and go around over the wall ( at 2:25 , like tommysalami does in his paladin zf farm ), this is also because as a draenei the mount is so big that you will get dismounted ( it collides with the thing on the wall 3:15 ) unless you jump cross the boxes back, making it worse. - There are also many more other safespots, like just after the pot jump ( 4:50 getting behind the pot inside the corridor to the left just after the doorframe ) in the scarab room ( 5:10 jump over the solo box to the right of the centre structure, or get in the crevice jumping over the pile of skulls near the pot just to the left of waffle at 5:13 ) etc. - *Overall it feels a nice place to spend your time, however as im in a time rush because of the portal opening in a few days, i dont feel like i will master this to be efficient enough xp/hour. Mostly because it is muchs slower than before the prepatch ( im guessing the pre-patch is at fault for the totem damage difference )* , also there will be better ways to get gold in TBC so it feels a little bit pointles; it however has been a nice experience :) .

Can anyone confirm if this method still works in pre-patch?

This seems to not work anymore, I've been getting only 100ex per 1 mob kill : / anyone any updates?

doing it on a paladin pre tbc patch (spell power scaling patch for them) its painfully slow

whats that weekaura for totems times?

I'm guessing this won't work in prepatch due to aoe cap on magma/nova totem

sounds like esfand in discord with you

Mage gnome can do the jump :) just really hard to hit the right spot when you jump the last ledge fyi :) great video!

u need to be ele?

if u use rank 1 chain lightning youll save more mana... if that was r1 and it just hits harder then i realise my mistake

killing my totem almost immediately??

They hot fixed the bug, now the mobs will teleport to you if you try to hide behind any reset spots.

the only downside with this method if u not dmg the mob frequently then the EXP scaled down to the actual HP% left on the mob. So example if mob got down to 50% HP and u dont hit it for like 15 sec it reset the exp and with 100% HP should give u 500 exp then after this it will give u only 250 exp. With mage is easier, but it is nice run, GJ.

ppl been doing it since old classic wow , and tbh to make gold.. create a mage... which does this job 10x faster... each run in ZG takes around 5-7min

XD you can always log out and make a mage too

I'm curious, should we adopt some of the paladin methodology and have a spirit set and a 'tank' set for this on shaman? like all mail/tank gear for the run to the GY and pure spirit and maybe intellect too idk if there's much spell power gear available at that point. im assuming you know about the pally zf solo: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/f7yoedZq2tappnk.html

no matter wtf I do with bombs they fukking destroy my fire totem instant

How come the mobs wont kill totems?

mmh I dont get it - I did it at Lvl 44, did it 2 times, I used EZ-Thro Dynamite and spammed a lot of chain lightnings, on second run even used 2 Dynamites just to be sure - first time I got like 8k, 2nd time I got 7k exp... weird. But nonetheless, maybe I did it wrong, otherwise it works and is insanely easy to do once you know how to get to the graveyard.

mages without mount can make that jump

Aw, was sad to hear engineering is required since im not planing on lvling engineering on my shaman

And then i see mages get boosted in mara till 52 paying 50g per run :D

Pog

Path of Exile is waiting for you Guys

i can do it

If you spec into instant Ghostwolf for this strat it'll make life a lot easier

you can forget about this farming method, it not works in tbc

you should edit the videoname.. to wow legion client ^_^ this aint classic
