Experience to level pre-Wrath
World Of Warcraft Subscription Numbers 2016
This table shows the character's current level and the amount of XP required to advance to the next level (e.g. '22: 24000' means that if you are level 22, you need a total of 24,000 XP to advance to level 23). This also shows the difference (percent change) in current XP requirements as compared to before Patch 2.3.0. Note that this percentage, when added to one, is the same as RF(CL) (discrepancies are caused by rounding).

The total experience needed to reach level 60 was 4,084,700. The total for 60 to 70 was 6,762,300, making 1 to 70 10,847,000 points in total.
The total number of same-level mobs that must be killed to reach level 60 with no rest or quests was 16,971 which would take approximately 76 hours at 16 seconds per kill.
An amusing but probably not very significant figure is that the half-way point to 60 for raw experience point accumulation is 12,550 XP into level 48. Halfway to 70 for raw experience point accumulation is 344,500 XP into level 62. In actual practice, quests contribute significantly to XP so the half-way point is somewhere below this.

Rest XP
The maximum amount of 'rest' that one can accumulate on a character is 150% of XP for the current level, (or 30 'bubbles') half of which is 'earned' XP and half of which is 'bonus' XP. This is because, every time you kill a mob, both the earned XP and the bonus XP is deducted from your rest. So, for example, if you are lvl 10 and 80% through the level (or 6080/7600) the maximum rest would be 11400. If you grind mobs until your rest is gone (and complete no quests), it will take you to level 12 at 1180/9800, or 12% through level 12, having earned 5700 XP from killing mobs and gotten 5700 XP 'free' for being rested. Keep in mind that quest (and discovery) XP does not count against your rest. Watch your rest marker when turning in a quest, and you will see it jump by the same amount as did your current XP.

It will costs 10 gold for a player to shut off experience gain so they won’t gain anymore experience. This is done by talking to a vendor, telling them you wish to stop acquiring experience, and then paying them 10 gold. Your experience will remain locked until you go back to that same vendor and tell them to turn it back on, this also costs 10 gold.
The vendor is called an “Experience Eliminator” and there are currently two located in game, one for each faction.
How To Turn Off Experience If You Are Alliance
If you are alliance you will head to the Stormwind Keep and find Behsten, he is a little hard to find because he is in stealth, but he’s in the war room where the Battleground commander is. If you run into the same room facing the king, it’s the room immediately to the right.
How To Turn Off Experience If You Are Horde
If you are horde you will head to Orgrimmar and find Slahtz. He is located in the Valley of Wisdom at the top of the building that houses the Orc Warrior Trainers. He is also in stealth mode so he can be hard to see.
Why Would You Want To Stop Gaining Experience?
I put the information above on how to shut off your experience first because I assumed you already knew why you’d want to, but for those of you who don’t, I’ll go over some common reasons as to why you’d shut your experience off.
Some people enjoy PvP but they don’t just enjoy it at the high levels, they like to PvP with limited skills and it’s easier to get the best gear at some of the lower levels. The PvP brackets usually end every 5 levels starting at level 14. So at level 14 if you joined Warsong Gulch you would be the highest level player in that battleground, the same would be true for 19, 24, 29, etc.
Some players will get the best gear for that high level and then want to stay that level so they can continue playing in the battlegrounds, therefore, they lock their experience so they can remain at level 14, 19, 24, etc with the best gear and just play battlegrounds for fun.
Let’s be honest, it’s a bit harder to get the best gear at max level, this allows for an easier more simple way to PvP with the best gear so other players don’t have an advantage just because of gear.
Another reason why you’d lock a level is to continue participating in an expansion at the appropriate level. For instance, the max level of original wow was 60, The Burning Crusade 70, Wrath of the Lich King 80, Cataclysm 85, etc. Some players like to experience content at the level it was intended for. You and your friends could have a guild full of locked level 70s and be raiding The Burning Crusade just to see how difficult it was.
Directly related to that may be the fact you’re gaining levels too fast and are too high to play with a friend. If you’re doing dungeons with them, most dungeons have a level cap, for example, almost all of the Wrath of the Lich King dungeons max at level 80. So if you have a friend in the 70s and you hit level 81, you’ll no longer be able to do random dungeons with them.
