I followed the grinding strategy on both Nost PVP and PVE, and it worked well. Grind from 1-45/50ish, and quest from 50-60. Especially useful in the beginning, as you can go grind on non-quest objective mobs. Keep a log of mobs people avoid during your first leveling experience, to know where/when to go.  Pros: 1) You get to watch a hell of a lot of your favorite TV shows or listen to podcasts 2) You will easily earn the required amount of gold for your mount, and gear as you level (be smart with professions) 3) You'll get to 60 faster and have a sense of when you'll hit 60  Cons: 1) Can be a bit of a drag, and can be very boring 2) You might burn out
