Best pure "gold farming" comp/content?

I think he means 5 teams with 5 characters in each - so 25xalchemy cooldowns and 25xtailoring cooldowns

That would be correct.

Ah OK. I was assuming 8-9 teams (still having room for a main team and an alternate team)

Bit of a sidenote... i copied this strat at lvl 60 and it was a lot of fun. Took a lot of time to get the gear and the trinket, which procs a shield, makes you basically unkillable, with all the mobs hitting you. Worth a shot if you plan to play solo

Now that movie was Classic (pun intended)!

IIRC that shield is mainly good for lower level mobs and was great on my 49 Twink Paladin (especially when going Ret with Truesilver Champion).

Prob the best way to make money as a mboxer is going to be transmuting arcanite and mooncloth. Once you have a level 60, warrior or mage ideally, you can boost groups of 4 to level 35 in probably around 18 hours played. Fill up your account slots, PL enchanting and tailoring up, and then cycle those transmutes on CD. if you put in the ground work, you will be Pablo Escobar E-rich in no time.

What would be the easiest class to boost to 35 with a Warrior or Mage?

I am interested in the answer to this also and whether it is really possible to efficiently boost a group from level 1 to 35+ with a high level main (like a capped level 60 main) of any class.

I have 6 accounts currently and one thought I had was using a main on the 6th account like a "guard" to boost the other 5 accounts... In essence find a good grinding spots with fast respawning mobs and have the 5box group tag and AoE/dot/wand/etc and then maybe the main kills the mob(s) when they hit >49% health.

Alternatively have the 5box channeling AoE dropping health and & have the 6th main outside the party doing AoE heals on them to keep them going.

There was some discussion about somehow pulling a bunch of mobs to the front of an instance and somehow having a main help the group but I don't remember the specifics right now.

If none of the above pan out my fall back plan is for my 5box group of 5 Warlocks+Priest to just dot/wand with pets in a grinding area (maybe trying to leverage the 5 second regen rule). Hopefully with some responses some more clarity on efficient boosting methods is attained before my focus returns to my non-main groups.

Back in the day my buddy would run all the way to the final boss of an instance and the drag the whole dungeon to the entrance where I would wait and then he'd kill them all.

Since I'm on Horde, I'm thinking on Druids, coz I want to make them all Tailoring/Alchemy for passive gold income (Mooncloth + Arcanite) and to craft Mooncloth you need to access a Moonwell + Mail to send after. On Horde only Druids have easy access to that (Moonglade Portal + Hearthstone) without losing access to the bank to also use them as Bank Alts.

Was that the best boosting method? I wonder if it still works.

I don't know if it was "best" but it sure leveled me pretty quickly. It was especially quick in Scarlet Monestary.

Correct answer for best boost class is Frost DK . However, since we don't have those, mage or warrior is good. Mage is better early on, warrior will carry your group further. This means, for level 35, mage is probably best bet. If you want to push past 35, a 60 gear warrior will be solid well into the 40's where a mage will start to struggle a bit.
