also for repeatables like Mud of Purity, it may as well be a grind.. i did this quest the other day... killed the required 70 lizardmen and had 3 muds to show for it, i still needed 17 more! this was solo WITH hunter's warrant. i guess luck has a lot to do with them, especially those repeatables that require a drop, not just kill counts.
Oh there is nothing wrong with grinding. I just know that some people made a few comments to me about all the grinding they had to do to get to 70. And with 3 of my characters, I normally solo, soloing can be a pain when grinding. So, I created a plan to level without grinding. So, when those people made comments to me, I told them I mapped it out with no grinding and several of them asked me to post how. So, I took the time to turn my spreadsheet into a guide.

If you like grinding, then there is nothing wrong with it. It is just sometimes easier to find a party working repeatables than finding a party to grind.
