Best way to level LK?

[The Legendary Joe]

I know a while ago people said it was taking down Kasa in thors with pierce.

a pike carded against fire/formless with water endow, and nice resists to take the hits.

But then Kasa got shield reflect. Does that make a notable difference in the survivability of melee damage dealers?

Is it still a viable leveling spot? Are there any better places with insane exp that a well geared LK could grind fairly easily?
