Instance Boosting Question

[Clanked]

I had originally thought that linking A>B>C>D>E wouldn't allow boosting. Reading this thread changed that...

Now I am stuck with these options, and I don't know which is best:

1) Fresh Paladin + Fresh Group + Questing to 60
2) Fresh DK + Fresh Group + Questing to 60
3) Fresh DK + Fresh Group + Boosting to 60

I have about 7.5k gold saved up from Pre-WotLK, so I should be able to afford spells/lvl 60 mounts no matter what method I choose.
I am definatly leaning towards the DK route for various personal taste reasons. So that really narrows it down to 2 and 3.
Would a lvl 55 +4 be efficient at questing to level?
More importantly, how well can a fresh 55 DK instance boost?

Update: This morning I took the duo to ramparts and got main gifter to 60 and the other guy to 60.9.

By 55(and56) I couldn't take strat anymore. Ramparts was cake. The only deaths came with the dragon fight. Funny because I left them on another planet and they still got smacked. However, this could have been avoided if I had heals setup. It's a short run, so I didn't care. I was getting a full level per run, which took about 20 min. Basically, I just rolled through to first pathing boss, up stairs to hang right to warlock guy and then back to dragon guy. Drop down to instance start and repeat.

I'll never quest before 60 with any char unless impossible. This has been so incredibly fast. And the strat run was full of loot. I was getting angry with ramparts. Mail pieces kept dropping, but my shaman is on the account with my DK. Guess I better bring up another shaman. 8o

To clanked, when you come out of the DK starting area, you'll be level 58 with awesome blue gear. When WotLK came out I got a DK from 55-80 in a week through regular play, so they can mow down content on their own. As for instance boosting, if you can play the class you should be able to at least boost any char from start through SM (35-40ish). Going past that, Strat, may be possible, but it would be insanely slow. It's one of those things where you'll have to try it yourself and see how you do.

Got a question related to that.

I linked my RAFs as follow (I had 2 accounts Acc1 & Acc2 to start with) :

Acc1 -> Acc3
Acc2 -> Acc 4 & Acc5

I have a pally lvl 71 with woltk quest gear on Acc1. I f I understand correctly, "boosting" with him would prevent Acc3 from getting RAF xp, but would give the other accounts the XP. Am I correct ? And would the 71 pally be strong enough to boost properly in the later levels (50-60) ?

Another question : I never see people doing instances with their 5 leveling toons (e.g. all at the same level, compatible with the instance) during the 0-60s. Is it because compared to questing it yields no xp ? I was wondering if doing SM at lvl 35 repeatedly would be a possibility compared to questing.

Any thoughts on this ?
