How in the world.... boost w/ a dk

[zenga]

I think the OP means this:

Gather 40 mobs on you, and as soon as you put a disease on a mob it dies, so no way to spread it. With a DK you are limited to your runes & weapon swing speed on how fast you can kill. Thus it's way slower than what consecrate would do for example. Scarlet monastery: I don't run towards each mob, but I usually just pull the boss or run within aggro range, to pull large packs. However .. how about death & decay, you can even glyph it just for your boosts.

Another idea might be to go for a boss, put the diseases on him. He might stay long enough alive to actually spread it

Boosting with a DK is simple, just follow these 5 steps

Step 1 - Build a time machine
Step 2 - Go back to November 13, 2008
Step 3 - Level a DK to 80 and get crafted epics and some quest blues
Step 4 - Boost all the characters you want with ease and fun
Step 5 - Delete DK before returning to present day to avoid severe depression whenever you play them in current patch

A useful tip for Death Knights and pulling mobs with low aggro range is (Glyph of Pestilence - extra 5 yards) then just pestilence all your targets while pulling (with no diseases) this in effect spreads nothing, but aggro's anything within pestilence range. This is also a trick to pulling massive amounts of mobs outside of instances as they cannot reset even though you're doing no damage.
