[WoW] AOE Paladin Boosting, when to move on to next instance?

[Coltimar]

Sadly, downranking Consecration is rubbish these days And yes, I hate Gnomer too.

body pull the boss, have your back against the wall

go afk whit blessing of stanctuary and retribution aura, come back every now and then to press your Figurine of the Colossus

When the boss dies of hitting you, zone out reset

if you cant see the movie then just find a mini boss troll named zolo in st and do what i postet above

this is the gear/spec i use, but you can prolly do whit any paladin aslong as you have the blessing

i bring 3 shields whit me when i do this and 2 stacks of repair bots

Wow, so you just afk and auto kill the skeleton adds for like hours at a time? Eek! I'm holy spec currently, but I'd respec for this. Gotta get that trinket too, never dropped for me so far. I have a 41 hunter im gonna try this with.

Are there any other similar encounters at lower lvls? If you could do this before lvl 20, you could have 60 levels in under a day while being AFK most of the time...

[Thulos]

I'm so going to have to try this, was thinking about boosting with a 70 mage but this makes me want to try out my paladin. Can anyone recomend a paly spec for this. I've only ever been a healing paly.

[pinotnoir]

I guess I need to start running shattered halls for that trinket.

Do the skeletons interupt spell casting? Because if they don't you don't need the figurine you could simply throw on concentration aura when you need to heal yourself along with Spiritual Focus and not have any healing spell push back.

[Tdog]

Well the skeletons don't seem to interrupt and this method seems to be working great however Zolo eventually dies on me. How do you keep him from dying when you do this? Just turn off retribution aura and have your back to him?

[daviddoran]

I assume he'd have to die eventually, unless he self heals, but then he still will eventually run OOM. Maybe your spell damage is too high? Too bad you can't downrank auras. I guess once he dies, you just run out reset and repeat.

[Ramesses]

oh man i cant wait to try this.

How long is it before he dies? Has no one figured out a way to keep him alive longer?

Seems like its a pretty far run with 5 lowbies, to get back to the boss every time he dies. I would think this slows you down quite a bit?

I tried this yesterday. My first run I used the Petrified Lichen Guard shield with a felsteel shield spike Zolo died in about 2 minutes. For the next runs, I only used the Petrified Lichen Guard to clear the trash and used my other shields without spikes for Zolo himself. Zolo lasted much much longer when I only used ret aura and BoSanct. I believe it was 3 cycles of the colossus trinket, so about 6+ minutes. On the next attempt, I feared Zolo every time I could bubble myself. This prolonged the fight a bit and also caused Zolo to drop another skeleton totem whenever fear broke. My twink was level 45 when I started and 48 when it was time to raid BT. On my best run, I reset the FuExperience statistics counter and hit 200k xp/hr. Obviously, the true number is lower including clear/travel time to the boss, but when you're actually at Zolo, you can crank out a lot of exp.

If you view the big circle as a clock, you have 6 possible locations for Zolo to spawn. If he spawns at 11 o'clock or 1 o'clock, you can leave the twink right there near the entrance portal which makes the run much faster. Tip: Make sure you have sense undead on. I think out of the 6 times I did this yesterday, Zolo was at the 7 o'clock position 3 times, 11 o'clock 1 time, 1 o'clock 1 time, and 9 o'clock 1 time.
