I've leveled 3 characters from 80->85 with this bot`, on Kalimdor, and currently at leveling a 4th.
My 2 cents:
*Stay on Kalimdor. By far the most stable zone, compared to all others.
*Do not train above 375. No comments on 375+ zones, like Uldum.
*Blacklist:
*Bael Modan Digsite*Bot will sometimes get stuck in combat indefinitely due to the two different mobs fighting each other, not to mention that the way the bot paths around this site looks very bottish (walks around the whole zone, instead of flying straight towards it).*Nazj’vel Digsite
*Sometimes gets stuck underwater, and attempts to mount indefinitely (cannot mount underwater).*Ravenwind Digsite*Gets stuck by the marble ruins quite a lot.*Ruins of Eldre'Thar*Gets stuck at one point of the marble ramp indefinitely. Does not invoke the "stuck" logic, so even though it happens rarely, if it ever happens unattended, it's a dead giveaway.*Slitherblade Shore Digsite*Gets stuck in the ramps sometimes, running into the wall trying to jump.*Solarsal Digsite*Bot gets stuck trying to fly out of this zone most of the time.
*Unless you're very unlucky``, you can check up on the bot once every several hours (I check up on it at least once every 4-6 hours), and dig the above sites manually.
*Minor Issues:
*Un'Goro Crater
*Sometimes swims through the tar pits, slowing it down quite a bit (tar gives slowing debuff), and doesn't seem like human play if someone's watching (why swim through the tar pit?).*Any Dig Sites with Water
*Same issue as above; sometimes tries to swim through it, or even attempt to dig in the water.*In/Out of Mount Hyjal
*Hits the invisible wall, and slowly climbs up/down. No one will probably see you do this, but it just annoys me enough for it to be an issue.*Large Objects in Zones
*Gets stuck sometimes in objects while trying to fly between individual dig sites, like carcasses in Un'Goro/Desolace, tents in Stonetalon, etc. It un-sticks itself, but if someone's watching, it looks suspicious.
`Takes 3-4 days running 24 hours/day from 80->85, from my experience. This is my #1 method of leveling, because I view it as near undetectable. I've had only one unexpected whisper throughout all these characters, and I was able to whisper back using BuddyCenter.
``Unlucky if all random spots happen to be those exact spots, and your bot just logs out; this has never happened to me.
Thnx lastday for this, goign to blacklist them rightnow
Lastday... How do you blacklist those areas? Can you post a snipit of those changes and where it goes in which file?
Any blacklist spots for eastern kingdoms?
I don't know. The times when I tried Eastern Kingdoms, it would get stuck so much, that it just wasn't worth the "AFK"-ness. Same goes for Outlands (bot trying to go through invisible walls, and eventually just falling to its death) and Northrend (gets stuck quite a bit). I pretty much only use Arch. to level, so I keep it on Kalimdor, and have it just cruise 80->85 in a couple of days.

Put it on overnight and bot got stucked and logged out at Jaedenar Ruins-spot. Bot flies into a cave where you cannot dig, and stays there until logout. Blacklisted the shit out of that spot.
I have leveled one toon 60-85 and another toon 60-78 [still running him] with AB [plus a mod I made to it that I won't release] and I never get stuck in EK, minus the Nek[whatever] wellspring.

I don't know what you guys are talking about. I may try out Kalimdor after I get off work though if I'm not 80 yet.
To the AB team, please decrease the distance needed for mounting. It pains me to see my char running a huge distance when it has an epic flyer. Would speed up my leveling time by a good bit.
