lvl45+ boosting... Yet another thread.

[Mendicant]

Okay I'm level 45 now, 20-40 I was run through SM, and I've been run through ZF twice now for the quests. I will probably get run through ZF a few more times yet, but-- looking to the future, which instances should I get boosted through, at what level, and which classes are best for boosting?

I've searched through a bunch of the old threads but haven't found anything concrete.

After ZF where should I look to for boosting? At what level? What are the best runners?

ST?
BRD? Prot Pally, Fury War?
Strat?

I actually boosted with a Demo Warlock, did Scholo and BRD a bunch.

What do you think the mini lvl the pally should be? I have a 42, think that is too low?

min level to do it normally? WowWiki says 47-50. I believe the final boss is a 52 elite (unless they nerfed it, I soloed it as a just dinged 70 in greens once) But to get boosted min lvl to zone in is 35.

Zolo is a 49 Elite with around 8,400 health. His summoned minions are 47 non-elites. This is why the XP starts to drop off around 50th level. But you can push to 52 still fairly quickly.

Strat?I can't tell you which are the "best runners" but I can give you my experience. I have boosted a paladin, mage, priest, and warlock from 8-60 using a level 70 enhance shaman. As best I can recall, the path went...

1-8: leveled them in a starting zone
8-14: Ragefire Chasm
14-20: Shadowfang Keep
20-24: Razorfen Kraul
24-33: Mixture of SM graveyard/library and Razofen Kraul
33-37: Mixture of SM armory/cathedral and Razorfen Downs
37-45: Mostly Uldaman, some SM cath
45-48: Mostly Sunken Temple, one or two Uldaman runs
48-59: Scholomance, one or two Sunken Temple runs
59-60: Stratholme

I still plan to do one or two more Stratholme runs, because I want to switch to the setup I will use in Outland. So far I just use the shaman to plow through the zone, using the priest/paladin to heal him when needed and using the warlock/mage to nuke if I feel like it. I want to have it set up so that the paladin is tanking, the priest/warlock/mage are DPSing, and the shaman is healing. He's got a full set of healing gear and I figure it works out best in terms of aggro.

Once that's done I will try the Outland instances running the group that way. But at the moment I'm leveling a hunter the traditional way because it's kinda fun. :p
