What about Essence of the Pure Flame?
Does it tap mobs, or would it be enough (maybe combined with thorns) to kill the skeletons fast enough?

Would it be possible with a feral Druid ? I' m a bit short of 70 pallies ...
I got my brother powerlvling me atm with this method he plays a paladin and after that Zolo is at like 5% after consecration you can just jump down below and Zolo will start to evade and then reset so you can farm this really easy
Hope this helped someone that was having trouble with him dying
Just a leecher trying to share some helpful info![]()
So how fast will I get lvl 35-55?
Edit: A tip is to get [Petrified Lichen Guard], requires honored with Sporeggar, which is done easily. I got 4 shields, and I'm gonna try this later tonight.

Seriously, how do you guys stay alive? I just tried this with my warrior, and he died after like 2 minutes![]()
nice hope theyll not fix it soon
+Rep ANY post you like!
Is this possible to do if my alt does not have stealth. we are going to try it with a shaman but are afraid that the alt will pull threat when the skeletons first spawn, since shamans dont have a consecrate to get initial agro.
Nice, will have to try this
That is actually an awesome idea for a warrior to use.
You have to be decently geared for the most part. If you are with a shaman you could try using healing stream totem.
What you have to do is just stand back a good bit,. I did this with a level 35 shaman and he never pulled agro by just standing around, he even used his healing stream totem (because our tank was a warrior) to see if it would work and he didnt even pull agro with that.
One thing I suggest is instead of sitting up on that ledge or what have you, You pull them to the entrince. You can take them to a corner down by the intrance and just have the characters getting XP sit near the instance portal for JUST IN CASE the tank dies.
PS Thank you to the people who Rep'd me for my earlier post, got me out of leecher, apreciate it.
ok. so best bet is to pull to the entrance if your alt is not a stealth toon then? or just make sure that the tank is positioned between the boss/skeletons and the alts so he can pick up agro? additionally how does a resto shaman tank tap the mobs for the group? only shield spike or dynamite? or is there another shaman ability that may do it?
works like a charm, until my gear turned red after 20 mins![]()
I got 40-55 in no time at all on 2 toons, and I love whoever found this.
Ok, as I´m one of the people benefiting from this find, I also want to contribute something.
I got a Friend of mine with his 70 Paladin to level my toons up. Worked really well. Especially with "Figurine of the Colossus".
But of course, like all them Pallys are wussies, he startet whining for me not helping him in exchange. I obviously couldn't, because I don't have a Paladin at all.
But I got my Restro Shaman. And as stated here before, someone did it with his/her Shaman as well.
The first try was horrible though. I'm not that well geared with my Shaman(Toon) and after a while my health startet droping so fast that I couldn't really counterheal it.
Then we worked out a little tweak, that will ease the whole thing for Restro Shamans:
0.) I´m specced deep Restro, plus the Enhancement-Talent "Shield Specialisation". I found it helpfull to skill "Nature's Guardian" because you will often cross the 30% health border. It procced almost allways! I use 3 shields from Stonard with Iron Shield Spikes on them. More are not nessecary, because the rest of my gear will be trashed before the shields are...
1.) Do everything as explained (we pull Mijan to Zolo, because running back to the entrance with them is just wasted time)
2.) Get your totems ready (I use Stoneskin, Grace of Air and of course Manaspring. No fire, all useless) while Mijan is punching you. If you run along a wall Zolo won't add and you can set up Totems without any hectic
3.) pull Zolo (with some R1 Shock) and wait for the Totems to show up
4.) It's important to note that you should have pressed "v" (Standard Keybinding) to see healthbars right above the mobs, because now you can easily spot the totems ol Zolo in the skelettal crowd
5.) Try to limit the number of totems to about 3 (I sometimes just let 2 be alive, because, as said, I'm equipped poorly. Some Cloth, some blues)
6.) Keep Earth Shield up all the time. Heal yourself from time to time. Watch out to keep your totems alive.
7.) Profit!
The downsides of doing this with a Shaman are:
1.) It's much slower. I don't think I tagged every skelleton before it died. That is because I just get straight 10% block chance. But still we made 60k XP in one hour (with a Lvl37 toon, not rested)
2.) You got almost no "emergency plans" besides "Nature's Swiftness" compared to Bouble, Lay on Hands, BoP. (OK, only LoH if your toon can't stay out of combat)
3.) Your whole gear will break over time (about 1 hour) beacause more hits will go unblocked than with a Paladin.
4.) You actually have to do something, stay concentrated or you'll mess everything up. Compared to klicking "Figurine of the Colossus" every 2 Min. and Blessing of Sanctuary every 10 Min.
Well, that's it. I hope I could help a little for my fellow Shaman friends out there.
Keep the XP flowing!

Yeah, this is great, went from 36-46 last night, and planning to get to 55 or 56 today. The skeletons are level 47, so on the 10th level they go grey, or am I mistaken? Technically you should be able to get to the VERY beginning of 57 with this.
It is super easy to do, if the paladin is a bit geared (I have a 16.5k unbuffed do it for me, and gave him 5 shields, and we had no problem. Got around 2.5-3 levels before he went full red.) As said above, if you jump off the ledge, the boss will be reset, but it is still a lot easier if you have Mijin pulled to him as well.
If you have a main and want this, just fork out some gold for it; works very well. If you have friends to come in, this also helps (adding about 13-15 xp more per kill. Now, sit back and enjoy your level per 20 minutes.
