First of all, love the forums, seems like a fantastic group of people.
I've just recently started multi-boxing WoW (5 instances, 1 computer, Keyclone (I own two copies, but am only using 1 atm LOVE IT on a self built gaming PC [vague, I know ;-)])

I have been playing single instance WoW since closed Beta, but the multi-boxing appealed to me.
I prefer PvP servers and my friends currently play on a PVE (Horde, of course is all I play) and I figure Multi will actually give me a challenge ;-P

Onto my question:
I am a 70 Undead Mage (perhaps that I say am instead of have shows the level of addiction, or not, whatever :-) )

I am trying to boost 4 alts through SM Cath.
I can sometimes pull the entire first courtyard and then rest up and single pull the second one.

USUALLY though, if I try to single pull each courtyard, I wipe.
I have about 500+ spell damage and was a 61 point frost mage, I am trying out the arcane/frost, and while interesting is not as successful as I would like.

In searching over the past week for better methods, I am unable to match the ~6 min Cath runs.....

I did notice this after reading the post for the 6th time....

Makes me worry that I am not enough bonus damage....but I think 500+ (540 or something) would be enough, or am I doomed to 30 minute Cath runs?

I was trying to use this pattern sort of (now without the elemental since I respecced)

Forgive me Skuggo for using your pic......

Any ideas?



P.S.
Oh, and Vyndree, you are my Heroine (Female hero, not drug) lol....I love your setup, unfortunately (or not) I left M$ to join the service in 2001 so I am envious of your setup.


Sorry for the large post....
Okay I have used a frost mage with about 650 spell dmg, 7.5k life to do this. Leveled 2 characters from 22-43 in SM Cath doing runs. Normally took a total of 4 pulls to complete it -- 1 for lower area, 1 upper (above waterwall), 1 clearing main room inside, then boss pull with the extra adds - aoed all down.

Here's how I did it, never dying - made this real quick to show you (You do need a semi big mana pool for this but based on your stats you are using a better geared mage for it so you should be fine anyways).
Always use ice barrier and rank 1 arcane explosion to gather the mobs, saving you life and mana to kill them, then ice blocking at the stopping point waiting for all of them to come to you, then frost nova, frost pet, aoe away.

Just how I did it, you can do it whatever way you want, found this way fastest & easiest to pull,live, and kill by.
