    Default Boosting 45-60 where/how?

    ok, all going well boosting a couple new characters I made last night. I am now at 45 and trying to get Scholo pulls down.

    Is strat better or is scholo the place?
    In SM I could pull Cath and Armory in less than 9min total which netted a ton of exp. Cath you could pull the enire place if you pulled both bosses.

    I feel like I cant figure a decent path in scholo atm..tried twice.

    I leave the low levels up top on the bridge/steps jump off kill the mobs there.
    Just cant get enough mobs at once cept when I pull rattlgore all the way back to the entrance and a billion skels got summoned lol.

    I am T10 geared paladin.

    Watched a couple vids but they kill mobs to far away..My slaves dont get exp... Seems like that room you jump to should be the kill room??


    Maybe I will try strat but not giving up on scholo quite yet..

    I have always used Scholo and just did a simple room by room pull, I used a druid using swipe which kills everything really fast.
    Rattlegore is not worth doing IMHO unless you want the shards or drops.
    I normally just pull the first 3 rooms, each time moving my lowbies up to just outside each door.
    Also worth getting the quests as they get a ton of XP and real easy when boosting.

    yeah, I did gore to get the key..then I pulled 5 of the lower bosses and all their mobs all at once and brought them to the room with all the students. Killed them there and slaves got the exp

    The only thing that 3.3 changed in this video was the AoE nerf. I'm told it didn't change for Paladins so you have nothing to worry about.

    Saw that vid but some of the spots he kills mobs are too far away for the slaves to get the exp

    Sholomance is the place. It should take 18 clears to get the 15 levels from 45 to 60. (with RAF 3x more w/o)

    Park toons at the entrance.
    Kill the 4 mobs on the bridge.
    Jump down and kill that room
    Go up and kill the big room with all the casters.
    Gather up the welps and jump down and gather rattlegores room and kill, get viewing room key.
    Go back to the caster room and go down behind the book case and kill all that.
    Come back up and reclear the first room where you jumped down as they will have respawned.
    Open locked door and agro the teachers and kill the entire student room.
    Start going back out. Dont agro any of thoes summoner guys in the bone rooms as they wont follow.
    Gather as many casters as you want from the room past the bridge.
    Done.

    Takes me about 12 min to clear that.

    I found Strat much easier and slightly more fun, once I had the rythym down, I was getting far more XP/h and the mobs are simple to kill, plus unlike SM/Scholo I wasn't hitting the instance/h cap which is really annoying.

    However I did do both Scholo and Strath to get my T set's

    Another cool thing about Strath is the ammount of Pristine black diamonds and rightious orbs that drop, the former sell for 200g on my server, the rightious orbs, not so much, but they easily paid for repairs.

    I prefer Stratholme to Scholomance.

    However, pick your poison between the two.
    And run either from 45th to 55th.

    At 55, migrate your team to Hellfire Ramparts.

    If you want to boost beyond 60th, at 60th move to Underbog.

    At 64th, move to your Auchendoun instance of choice.
    I forget which one I used, but you want the one with mostly melee types.

    At 68th, I moved to Steamvault.

    I did extensive testing for auchendoun instances... it is most effective to run Sethekk with a high damage class that can heal themself (ret pally, feral druid) you get upwards to 30% per run until 66, 66-68 is between 15 and 20% per run, and you can hit the instance cap per hour.

    I boosted in Scholo last weekend. I left my toons at the entrance and they got full xp/reputation no matter where i killed mobs. BTW I don't have RaF.

    Only mobs that really piss me off are those stunlocking guards at the beginning of instance, other than that scholo is fast instance to clear and gives good xp/hour.

    I've done both Strat and Scholo boosting and i prefer Scholomance.
