Tried to leave them at the first arch in Libary. I found a patrol in the libary which killed that plan, but they still got keys.
you don't need to have the them parked close to the loot... you can just collect it with your booster and trade it with your toons, as they are eligible to receive the loot for 90 minutes (i.e. in XP range of the kill)


my ammended boosting schedule (with RAF)
1-10 Quest

(Boosting with Feral Druid 3.6kGS)
10-20 SFK

Summon with Warlock. toons left in entrance gate, 4-5 pull the whole instance 6-7 minutes (padded out to 12min with looting)

20-45 SM (Armory + Cath)

Armory
Clear first courtyard - move toons to the top of the stairs, wait & kill evoker on patrol (the one who comes up the stairs)
stealth to herod, aggro and pull instance to bottom of stairs where toons are parked...

Cath
Clear bottom courtyard in one pull - move toons to bottom of right hand stairs - wait and kill patrol on stairs
open cath - cat stealth to high inquisitor fairbanks and kill. - run to morgraine and aggro - sprint outside and change to bear form. swipe spam the mobs to death - the majority of the outside will be summoned to attack upon his resurrection. once done finish off any leftovers.

45-55 Scholomance

leave toons where they port into instance.
drop off the bridge and clear the room below, run to rattlegore aggroing one of the whelp handlers, drop down one of the the holes to rattlegore and kill him, by the time he is dead the assorted train of mobs will arrive, clear these, loot the key and head back up stairs. clear the dungeon room (bear form - swipe) of all the zombies and activate the torch. head back to the viewing room, clear the room and loot the chest.
enter the viewing room run up behind marduk blackpool and attack him, vectus and a couple of students will join in the fight. once these are done clear the rest of the room (2 pulls). dont bother doing Ras, unless you are after any specific drops
head for the study and clear the room with Lorekeeper Polkelt in (first on the left). once cleared head back to the start of the instance (unless you want any of the other boss drops).
3-4 pull the rest of the instance back to the start.

time normally 10-12 minutes per run

55-63 Ramparts

leave toons at start, pull the first 6 groups of mobs, once cleared move your toons to just past the overhead bridge (this ensures they get full xp throughout the instance) continune chain pulling the rest of the instance as you see fit (i normally do it in about 5-6 pulls) - time normally around the 12 minute mark.

as for the looting question... quite a few people say not to loot, but i have found that with looting (from SM upwards) i can easily make on average 500-600g per set of toons levelled to 60 (from cloth drops and vendoring greens and bop blues) , which pays for the cost of skills and riding training.. if you get boe blues this can add anything up to an additional 200g on top (they quickly sell for 15-25g each)
