Mages are t the best at killing multiple mobs at one time with AoE spells. The basics of AoE grinding are as follows: use a mage, agro a bunch of mobs and use AoE spells to kill them all at the same time, while ultimately avoiding damage and death. WOW GOLD Because mages have at their disposed damage spells such as Arcane Explosion, Come of Cold, Blastwave and Flamestrike, a mage is ideal and indeed the best class, at killing multiple mobs with AoE spells. On top of the damage spells, there is also access to useful spells such as Frost Nova and the extremely handy Blink to assist in grinding.

The ideal talent build for AoE grinding is focused generally on the Arcane tree, as Arcane Explosion will be your main source of damage to kill mobs. From level 10 to 20, Arcane Concentration and Improved Arcane Missiles should be picked. From level 21 to 30, WOW GOLD talent points can be spent on the Fire tree (Improved Fireball, Pyroblast, etc). After level 30, continue to spend points in the arcane tree, improving your mage's efficiency with Arcane Meditation, Arcane Mind, Arcane Instability, and Arcane Power.

The best low level 17-23 spot to AoE grind is in the Wetlands, near Loch Modan. The Mosshide Gnolls found in camps just outside the tunnel from Loch Modan have an extremely fast respawn rate and only one caster per camp. Make sure to kill the caster first, and then you will easily Arcane Explosion the rest of the camp to death.

For level 21-27 mages, the Shadowhide Gnolls in Redridge Mountains are prime grinding targets. There are no ranged mobs, and very few caster ones.

The next must-visit spot is in Duskwood. Recommended for mages level 28-32, there are many Vile Fangs just outside a cave to the east of the Rotting Orchard. The mobs here are ideal for AoE leveling as there are no ranged mobs or casters.

Continue to AoE level at Stranglethorn Vale, around Nesingwary's Expedition. WOW GOLD Completing the quests found there along with some quick grinding should make for some rapid leveling.

At level 40, proceed on to Tanaris. The Wastewander Pirates here make for excellent AOE grinding, as there are several camps full of them. You can move on to the Southsea Pirates located around Lost Rigger Cove later. You can stay in Tanaris well until level 46.

For level 46-51, mages can choose to level in the Blasted Lands. Kill the Nethergarde Humans wandering around, but watch out for the ranged mobs. Alternatively, at level 49-54, grind the Thunderhead Hippogryphs found in the northern part of Azshara.

A good place to mage AOE grind in the level 50s is in Winterspring. WOW GOLD The Ice Thistle Yetis are perfect as they have a fast respawn timer and there are no ranged mobs or casters. However, keep in mind that these mobs have a high resist to Frost spells.

Finally, if you are itching to reach level 60, you can start killing the Earth Elementals found in northwest Silithus.

Before AoEing, make sure you are always at full health and full mana, and also fully buffed with Ice Armor. Remember to strafe away from mobs instead of backing away as strafing is faster. For tight situations, use Frost Nova and Blink separately, instead of together, as this can buy you more time.
