I know a lot of places to gain experience in each act except for act 4 so
can some one fill in the blanks or if they know any extras feel free to
place them in:
act 1: Tristiam
act 2: Arcane santuary
act 3: Travistal
act 4: ??????
act 5: Baal Runs
if there are any places else anyone knows of fill them in thanx

For act2 i would find that Tomb Running is more efficient for experience
gaining, and for Act4 i would probably just run through to Hellforge from
the River of Flame wp.

Call me a newb, but who is Pindle and Eldritch? Shenk is the overseer
at the end of the Bloody Foothills. (I learned Lister is the guy in
Baals throne room).

But yeah, at level 25, you can at least a level each Baal run in his
throne room (Do not kill Baal, just his minions). This experience
drops off at about level 45.

I don't think people generally run through Act 4 for experience since
Act 5 has a lot safer places to level.

In Act 5, doing a few Bloody Foothill runs is pretty common.

Myself, I just run Pindle/Eldritch/Shenk a bunch of time to build up
some gold and possibly get some decent items... which also nets me
some decent experience.

Cows are level 28 or so, so you can get decent experience from them
25-30 or so.

Baal runs are definitely the way to go most of the time 25+

Actually, I think from level 20, Cows are pretty good. At least from my
experience. And definitely level 20. At level 19, you hardly level at
all in a full game. At 20, you can get just over a level in a single
player game. 2 levels in a full game.

I beg to differ with you. At least in normal. I run the River of Flame
WP to the Hellforge a whole bunch of times usually. That normal Diablo is
tough enough to make me want to be stronger and stronger before taking him
on. If you only go 'left' from the WP you don't have to deal with OK's
that show up if you go 'right'.

Shenk = Overseer
Eldritch = Super Unique above the waypoint above Shenk
Pindle = Super Unique at the entrance to Halls of Pain (in Anya's red
portal)

It's quite common to MF these three Super Uniques.

Yes, Baal runs give massive experience...

Since I play SC, I don't worry about dying to Diablo too much, but if
I were playing HC, I think I would indeed try to gain some levels
before Diablo.

I think in SC though, most people are like me and try to get to Act 5
fairly quickly to level there.

Pindleton is inside the portal to Nihlithacs temple. Eldritch the Rectifier
is in Frigid Highlands near the Waypoint.

Before LOD, there were River Runs.
