So bouncing around on the web waiting for the prepatch and I stumbled on an old WOTLK guide that advocated Doing 25 quests but not turning any of them in till the prepatch hit.
Anyone doing it? Any reason it shouldnt work?
That is a very common tactic at the start of a new exp to boost your exp a bit quickly. Some quests give way more, and can push you into level 71 in wrath before you even hit the new zones. So expect a lot of people to do this.

Any suggestions on a hub to use. Obviously you’d want to turn them in as fast as possible

Does this work with dailies?

That I’m not sure. I believe on beta they did, but if that is the case once it goes live, i can’t make that promise.
If you have any level 70 zones like netherstorm or SMV, those should be good. Any higher level 5 main quests will give good exp (the orgre ones to get access to the dailies in blades edge). If you haven’t’ got max faction from Karazhan, Mount Hyjal, those will be very good for exp. Any level 69-70 dungeon quest will give good exp. If you haven’t done the attunement quests for MH/BT (killing vash/kt), this will give good exp. But yea, proximity and efficiency will make a difference. A lot of people will do it, so they can skip a zone and get right into dragonblight to avoid the quest mob competition in the starter zones.
Edit to say if you don’t do ANY faction quests turn ins for kara or MH, each faction level quest you turn in should give you a good chunk of EXP, so those would be good to get.
I just found an old post from og wrath and people got xp but it was far less than a netherstorm quest. Someone said they got about 1/3 of a level turning in a bunch.
Yea, it totally depends on the quest. The group, raid or dungeon quests will be better. There are some guides out there on which ones to do, but i you got a max level toon that has done all the quests, its going to be harder.
I plan on saving the isle quest the day before and thats about it. I’m not too concerned about it. Layering really helped on tbc and once I got the first 4 or 5 quest done it was pretyy smooth sailing, but I was there right at the start.
Now that I think about it maybe doing those dailies might set me back 
I suppose it works at any level. Given the XP requirements for the levels squish no matter what level you are you should stop turning in quests just before the pre patch and wait to turn them in after. The XP you get will be the same but the xp needed for the next level is less. Tuen them in before prepatch and the result gets squished with everything else
A real pro would have stopped leveling at 69.95% and let the rest keep building.

Way too much work, for very little pay off.
Unless you have a team of people to summon you around for turn ins, it will likely be very little advantage compared to just hopping into wrath dungeons
I think the kara/MH ones would be the best, because each faction level gives you a turn in and can be done pretty quickly. Park at CoT, do turn ins, hearth to city, use statt portal to SW, run to kara, turn in. Those i think would be worth it time wise.

Well perhaps not the full 25 that would having you hoping all over the world but at least a few at one quest hub that you log out at the night before would seem to make sense

If the blood elf isles dailies give exp, that is 10 quest turn ins in like 1.5 minutes. The question is, will blizzard let them give exp of a level 70 quest (which they are).

This will be a quick shot in the arm xp wise. Not super, but a quick boost.
