The only way is up...
slowly.
I'm definitely feeling the 60-70 slowdown, but after 3 hours for the first half level I managed to do the rest in around two. I think that's just choice of quest/mob. One that took quite a long time - for a "kill 10" type quest - was the longbeards ravager quest. The big green ravagers were slow to kill, also the skitterers kept running up and aggroing - those things reset their aggro table at random so half the time I couldn't get range on them and I can't take a pounding.
The other thing that helped with levelling time was *fan-fare* upgrading my mount! It's so nice to get places in finite time, and be able to evade pursuing bad guys. At the same time I visited a hunter trainer and got all the level 58+60 skills, which were many and do seem to have had a huge impact - especially combined with Archie hitting 60 and holding aggro like a limpet. Well okay, he's talentless too so that's an exaggeration, but I now don't have to wait anywhere near as long for him to get enough threat.
Sometimes the "kill x things" quests can be boring, sometimes they're satisfying. Usually I don't like the buzzards, but tonight I kind of enjoyed the wholesale slaughter of those feathered fiends.
I think I may move on from Hellfire, now I just have to work out where.

Hey, saw your article on wowinsider and just popped over to your blog to offer some support, keep it up! - and great job keeping a blog of it.. 1 suggestion I do have is a recount/dps of specific fights or general grind time to see exactly how it changes you.. and some info about your gear upgrades etc... but yeah! - great job, great blog and sounds like fun!

Hi Josey, thanks :)
Hey Dan, thanks for the support, I'll think about the recount info, I could add it to the level/played/location/theme section at the bottom of each post. Thanks for the idea :)
