    I haven't done it on any non-vet characters on the live server yet, but I remember getting pretty decent XP running it on the PTS.

    Why don't you try it out? Hop on an alt, record your current XP, run through it, and see how much XP you gained. From there you can determine if it is something worth grinding to you or not.

    I got about 1/4 of a vet rank for completing it. So it's slower than slaughtering zombies and vampires, but it's also much more fun.

    I firmly believe the best xp (and loot) are from IC sewers.

    Non-stop murder with reliable re-spawns and most importantly, 3 mob minimum per room. Daedroth & Ogrim are worth around two mobs XP-wise too.

    Need the gold from selling the IC loot too as Wrothgar is all BoP and you need gold for VMA.

    Well, since it was my first run and I didn't know anything about the mechanics it took me a bit more than an hour. But when you know them and have enough dps to ignore some of them, it should be much faster.
