Bout to buy one of these sucker's. Wondering which foundry is best to do or if there is another method to level this thing to max ASAP.

I'm a CW.

    Don't bother doing foundry. Do Sharandar daily quests instead, they give craploads of exp. If you didnt finish the questline in whispering caverns go there, also quick as hell.

    Yea, I finished whispering caverns unfortunately...beside Sharandar dailies do you recommend anything else? I imagine that could take several days since I can't repeat them...

    Sharandar dailies will level pets in a flash. Even the Midsummer Festival dailies offer a fair chunk of XP for little effort at max level.

    Personally, I capped out with a ton of zone questing unfinished, so I've had those to draw on for pet levelling as well.

    Keep it summoned when you do Leadership stuff and invoke as well.

    I agree, Sharandar is the way to go. Just make sure you also put some training runestones in there. You can overwrite them later at no cost.

    You say that as if that's a bad thing. It's not meant to be instantaneous. Several days is pretty good... I think mine took 3-4 days or something.

    The Foundry has tags now, so if you select 'combat focus' you should be sorted. I did 1-20 on skirmishes (Call to Arms) and Foundry quests in a weekend, pre-patch.

    prayer and leadership xp also work toward your pet. If you focus on XP giving leadership instead of AD rewards for a few days, you can get a surprising amount of xp in a 24 hour period assuming you have worked on leadership somewhere along the way (have some guys, have slots open, can do at least rank 12 tasks)

    Note that praying in the bar in PE or other areas where you get the message "your pets cannot help you here" will NOT give you the XP. Nor will turn-in of leadership! DO NOT DO THEM INSIDE THOSE AREAS.

    Shar quests are great; hopefully by now you can do the first 2 areas daily which is a ton of xp.

    Other than that, just kill stuff. A couple of hours of killing the weak mobs in the shar areas or maybe even festival trolls and powries for example.

    Do Dailies > Unifinished Zones > Foundry (Esp during +50% exp hour) > Leadership > Invocation > Grinding mobs.

    It's foolish not to do foundries if you want to powerlevel it. Do foundries, AND Sharandar. You can search for "AoE" or "farm". There are a few foundries with 50 mobs/pack you can do quick. Just control them to smithereens and blast them with OF. 4 minutes/run, going from level 24 to 25 in 15 mins. Some AoE farming foundries even count towards the daily.

    So foundries are the way to go if you want to powerlevel it in a day or two to unlock all slots, since Sharandar's offer while very good, is limited to daily runs.

    Also don't send the stone to train only when you go to sleep or will be offline for a few hours. Keep it with you so it can get Xp for all the mobs you kill, it will accumulate levels, but they will stay locked until training is complete.

    If you're gonna do foundries do ones that count for the daily, and try to do them during the "foundry" event, which gives extra XP. Even better if you get the Lord daily foundry quest. That will level pets real quick. I agree though, do Shandalar and summerfest quests first, good XP there.
