Instance grinding vs quests
I currently have a 70 mage and am wondering what is the fastest way to help level my 16 drood. It seems that running my toon through instances and not doing the quests may be the fastest way to use my /played time.
I was thinking...
WC 16-19
SFK 20 - 21
BFD 22-25
RFK 26-28
Quests 28- 33
RFD 33-34
SM 34-40
Ulda 40-43
ZF 44-48
Mara 49-50
ST - 51-53
BRD - 54-55
Please let me know if you have tried this, or have any suggestions. Thanks.

for power leveling aoe'ing an instance will be faster than quests. And you can just stay in SM for a long time instead of moving around unless you need gear from RFD. just do SM starting with GY at 28 and end at cath at 40. Same goes for ulda, I personally like ZF over ulda so just go there early and stay longer then go to mara. And you can go to mara before 49 easily since you are just PLing. Make sure to bring an enchanter though since you will have a lot of loot you cant use, might as well make some money off it to pay for training :)
http://www.wowwiki.com/Instances_by_level is a handy reference to use btw

You put Mara way to late. Purple can be done at 43ish and at 49 wouldn't be worth it. One thing you can do is run orange/purple at 45 to get keyed for Inner Mara and then go back to ZF.
Also the list is kinda dependant on your group, depending on drops you may prefer one over the other (I only ran Uld once). But overall up to ZF, which is where I'm at currently, it looks good.

hehe read the OP again, he is talkig about PLing a single 16 drood with a 70 mage, no groups involved ;) But i agree. id say remove ulda and do ZF from 40-44 then mara till 48/49 then move to ST for 49-53 then BRD till whenever, and depending on your mage maybe even LBRS
