At level 47 hunter when first using this method you can expect a catch chance of around 56%. This gradually scales up as your level increases. Before eventually hitting a 100% catch rate at level 88 hunter.
Orange Salamander Experience Rates
At level 47 hunter, players can expect around 40,000 hunter experience per hour with Orange Salamanders. This will scale up to around 50,000 experience per hour at level 59. It is advised to stop and move onto Red Salamanders at level 60, as they provide higher experience rates.
