Found this out myself while leveling, never heard about it anywhere but assumed it was intended as it makes plenty of sense. A good addition imo and makes leveling just that much more enjoyable.

I actively plan my leveling around this feature. There's an area in Northern Barrens with three rare spawns that are nearly always up, and the area also happens to be within the path of Takk the Leaper, for a chance at 4 rare spawn kills in under 5 minutes. They also give considerably more XP than the quests in the area.

The best part is most of these respawn every 3-4 hours.
I know in Redridge, there are 3 that spawn within 15 seconds of the inn. ( gnoll, dragon and spider) You can basically level from 15-25 with about 1 hour of played time. Log in, kill the 3 rares, log out at inn.. play your main, or another toon for a few hours, log back in, kill same 3 rares.

Didn't realize this- I've mostly been killing them on my hunter once, then taming them on a later re-spawn when I'm leveled enough to tame them.

However, overall it should be more effective to just do quests or dungeons though.

Unless you plan on a ridiculously low-pop server, it would definitely be more effective to level through "normal" means.

Not necessarily. There are some rares with ludicrously quick respawn rates.

Of course, levelling is more fun when you switch activities occasionally, so when you come across a good "rare grinding area" while questing, use it.
