Well if you been reading my threads I've been power lvling my team using my rogue.
Team is (as now) 2 locks (31), 1 priest (31), and 1 pally (34).
I just want to know how far i can solo instances with my Rogue ('http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Vek%27nilash&n=Demonna')?
I know that i can do sm solo no problem and zf (never did with rogue, but cleared easy with a lvl 70 hunter with greens), but can she solo schol?
I could have my team help with dps and healing but the dps wont be that good because they will miss a lot having the mobs 5-8 lvls higher then them. The Priest healing would be ok but not that good for a lvl 70 rogue (could have the pally heal too, but wont be that good sense he will be prot build), bad thing about healing is that they will get agro and being a pvp spec rogue i can only attack one mob at once. Also getting them in range might agro other mobs that i am not ready for.
If anyone wants to know this is what i did for runs and xp seemed good
8-15 RFC
15-19 SFK
20-24 RFK
24-30 SM lib (maybe next time stay till 29 and go to sm cath at 29)
30-40 SM Cath (Working on now)
40-45 ZF (Next step)
45-55 Schol (Hopefully)
Or if anyone has a better idea for a layout plan. I did a udaman run once and the xp there was not that great. I am also skipping BRD because it is walk and to get into the instance you have to do some clearing. With schol you can just run in, plus i have rogue to pick lock so don't need key and i can also get some rep there too.

If you armory Toned on durotan that's my Alliance Rogue I've used him from Deadmines to freaking Sethekk Halls before rogues are beasts, and your alts can heal you (pal + priest).
I stopped playing around release of season 3, but with that gear and even season 1 you should be fine.

Im in a similar position as you Drizzit, i have a 70 Rogue in good Blues and 2 pieces of glad AR for what it's worth!
The guy im boxing with is a 40 pally, hit it last night:) and last thing we did was a run Through ZF for the Big Bad Pauldrons which didn't drop:(
I must say it was very easy instance from what i frist thought, i had a lot of flash back from when i was there in my 40's worrying about dying etc!
The sergent bly part got a bit hectic but the only part of his team that dyed was the Warlock. everything else was easy, i never even needed pally for healing.
Going to try ST tonight and then Sholo, strat. i'll let you know how i get on.

i have enough points to get 1 piece of s3 but holding off till s4 so i can get 2 or maybe even 3 by the time it comes out. I also remember about doing RFC and SFK and wiping a couple times and sometimes not able to kill the boss and those instance took like an hour to do... now i do them in 20 min. I just wish i had my pally at 70 or my mage and it would be a 10 min deal... i guess like not that many people rush with rogues cause no one is responding too much :(

I boosted a friend of mine with my rogue, equally good (Fairly good actually :P) as your rogue.
At the time he was lvl 49 we did ZF wit ease and when he was 54 or something we did ST.
ST was a bitch due to the big packs of mobs and the lack of AoE. So me being Hemo/ShS-specc I had to use evasion a couple of times, but if you specc BladeFlurry it should be no problems what so ever I think!
The bigger packs of mobs did more damage to me than the bosses :P Many of the bosses down there use magic attacks (Spells or poisonsprays whatever), and we all know that cloak of skill is pewpew :D Also being 15 levels higher I resister alot aswell.

Yea I also used ST to power level, I did it from 40-50. zf wasn't enough xp for me :P I got impatient and went for the big stuff 8) Scholo is not to be underestimated, alot of those mobs hit harder than everyday 70 mobs, mainly because of their enrage and weird abilities. I personally wouldn't bother scholo, only reason I did it when I did was when I was paid 80 gold. And we still did it with 3 well geared 70's. hope this helped, Good luck :D

don't actually know any bout rouge (think zf will be hard coz u need 2 move ur toons)
i have prot Pally ('http://eu.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Burning+Legion&n=Kirammal'), i do SM cath in 2 pulls, it takes me about 7-8 minutes, he kills mobs from 1 pull with 2-3 Consecrations :) easy

First of all, it's "rogue". LOL, sorry, us rogues are touchy about that. I've played one since the game came out, it's still a sore spot.
Anyway, I've soloed mine with quest greens/blues and a full S1 set (retired her and gave up raiding before I got any Kara loot) through pre-BC dungeons up to UBRS/MC/BWL. Scholo is tricky, a freind helps a lot - a rogue with a pocket healer will mow through it, same for Strat. LRBS is cake, parts of UBRS are doable, but without T4 at least forget it, alone.
I was soloing Scarlet Monastary pre-BC at 50 with no problems, it's a longer process because you have to pick off mobs one or two at a time at the end - even a well geared 70 will get their asses kicked if the entire instance pulls on you. 20 minutes top to clear it tough, my 70 rogue has taken a few of my alts through for easy exp and gear. 40 minutes to do all 4 instances, taking your time.
ZF is also easy for a 70 rogue, the only tricky fight is the stairs - a pocket healer can make it a breeze though. I've cleared that a bunch of times for mageweave, it's not that hard. Blade Fury is a MUST here, and you just have to pick your pulls carefully, and on the stairs, manage your trinkets/cds and blade fury right.
ST is one I havent run in a long time, I HATE that instance.
Recently, I took an alt through Mauradon with my 70, and she tore the place up - The Princess went down FAST. Easy exp, the only issue is pulling mobs that need AOE, like the slimes. (Those fucking slimes....grrr.....)
My rogue can clear up through half of UBRS solo without bandaging/potting. I can't see taking Drak unless you have T3 or T4, and even then, maybe, he's just a pain. My rogue has what i would call entry level gear for Kara, too, it's not great at all - but it's gemmed right, and I went combat, so she puts out pretty serious damage. Shadowpanther.net is THE place to gear your rogue out.
I love my rogue and the class, but I'm taking a break from her now until WotLK comes out, I'm just burned out. After what, 4 years of playing her, I just need a break. :) Plus, I have zero interest in raiding, and got bored of PvP, and dailies, and that doesnt leave you with much to do - which is why I tried multiboxing!

K, how about this. SM till 40 (getting mount will be better and sm grind is pretty easy). Go to ZF and do the quest line so that will put me at around 43. Then head to BRD till about 53 then head to LBRS till 58. Then off to outlands.
So with my rogue I will be able to solo BRD and LBRS with no problems? Only been to BRD a couple times, is there stuff that i should/should not do there. I have never been to LBRS so what should i expect there?
