Hey dawnshroud peaks is a brilliant place to level at 35-40
Zelniaks are brilliant to hunt there, especially as a necro (my fave!)
My technique was drop a darkness line of spell, my 2 best dots, my pet (with taunt turned off) and a fear. by the time fear wore off the mob was usually dead, and with clarity on me (picked up at PoK) my mana was back to full, ready for another - brilliant fear kiting.
Agro kiting works well too, as they have small agro radius so you get no trains. try it.

some tribals cast though so beware, also wolves have a tendancy to just 'pop up' out of nowhere, but they're static spawns and you quickly learn their locations.

try gunthak great xp 25-45 i love that place lol

id say that Dawnshroud peaks is for a little lower than 35-40 now with the new distallates and damage shield potions. maybe around 25-35 or so , if you play your cards right ,its great xp.
