aw ic.

i boosted my raf team via a mage . the 70 mage had some t6 gear. i tried boosting with my old tankadin that was on t5 and im convinced mage > tankadin for boosting. just an opinion.
Most 80's can boost anything through 60.

After that, it changes, fast, especially if you're going to instance boost. Then, the mage is useless, as tanking is pretty dicey. They're very fun to have, and who doesnt like free water and food and portals? But as a tank...nah, gotta disagree there.

I've level boosted with a rogue, a lock, and a druid. The best, IMVHO, is the Lock - if you speck demon, and use your felguard, he can tank a LOT in Outlands - you will find it really hard to grab aggro from him. Add in the Lock dots, you can dot groups up, send in the Felguard, and watch the exp flow. Your boosted characters can sit there and play Peggle.

I don't think my Felguard ever died in Outlands, and I ran my current team through Ramps, Blood Furnace, Underbog, Slave Pens, Mana Tombs, Crypts, and Sekketh. The mage, who is also 80 (fire spec, massive dps support), died a LOT. The Lock died once, when I pulled a whole room in Sekketh by mistake.
