level 76 and want to start Archeology so my question is what zones should I blacklist? so I wont go to a higher zone and die.
Just set the Train until option: to 375 so the bot wont level above 375 and wont go to Hyjal/Uldum (450 iirc) just use the AB in Kalimdor or EK its pretty good, for faster EXP use it in Outland if you reached 300+. Your Skill doesnt matter for EXP, your char level does. AB in Northrend is not very viable.
i wouldnt run outland unless your well over level 70, since even if you blacklist the max number of sites, there is still one you have to leave open that has an elite mob, that will kill your toon just about everytime, granted its good money and exp, but if your dieing a lot, outland might not be the place for you.
Belongs to luck were your Digsites spawn/Heirlooms/rested or unrested/Guildbonus/Mountspeed/Zone or not. But I can tell you its 100% and definite the fastest way. My Exp I can remember is rested with all that stuff I postet top 34.500 per search x 3 = 110.000 and you can easily get about 50 solves/h or a lot more with 280%/310% Mount. And if you calculate that just 50 solves a hour its 1.7250.000 EXp/h and i bet I had more than 50 solves. (level 83-85), at 76 you get less EXP because the Archaeology EXP belongs to the player level, but you also need less EXP to level up.
