Ok, you all have read about the Sunken Temple exploit, and i found out something similar myself (dont think ever posted before).
First something about the sunken temple exploit
For the ones that missed the original topics about that [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
I just got a few hints here:
1. It works from 35-54
To get the max of exp, ALWAYS go with a full group. This is common sense, but lot of peeps think they get the max exp only with 3 (minimum for groupbonus) but it keeps going up by every person that joins.
Try to get lower lvls in than your alt, soyou get the most.
These guys said it only worked till 52, but with full grp it actually works till 54 (non rested 42-48 exp/hour)
2. Summon
Since a 35 can be hard to get in there, try to get a lock as one of the first in, or get a 70 lock in, since you can summon from inside instance now.
3. Auras and blessings
These guys talk about consecration rank 1, ret aura, etc...
The only thing you need is BoS rank 1 and devotion aura... Thats it...
The good thing about this: less damage to the bosses, mana preservation, etc. And the skellies get enough damage to give exp.
The seal to regen health is needed too
4. Placing of boosted peeps
These peeps should stand halfway down the stairs, against the wall. I have noticed that the aggro works with Line of sight and not the distance to the boss. Just make sure they dont buff or whatever, not even themselves since it is enough to aggro. Also totems that spawned in front of the stairs should be destroyed immediately.
Another good thing about this: you can use bubble and even reset without these peeps aggroing.
5. Tankspot
Pick a spot to tank where skellies can only approach from one side, makes it easier to tank them etc
On every terrace there is a gong, a brazier, stuff where you can hide and pick a easy spot, like this one
6. Bringing in help
lets say that you have 4 peeps in there, and you are tanking... Need a replacement since your gear is red? Someone else can run in since these minibosses dont count as real bossfights. No messages that you cant enter!
You can even summon them in (the alts).
7. Keeping help ready
let someone log out on his main at the bossplace by doing alt + f4.
He will stay at the same spot in the instance, so you could have a priest standing there for when things go bad
Now, all this are comments on a repost you say... true... but here is the second part.
Since you can only do sunken till 52-54, you want another place to go to EZlvl till 58-60... I got the spot for you!
I started thinking, what other bosses do spawn adds that can be killed for exp?
We went to strat baron, and guess what, it worked like a charm!
1. Baron regens a shitload of health, you can use your blessing to recover health on him for hours, he doesnt die (depends spec a bit, I didnt spec one H specialisation, I do less dps)
2. The adds spawn in waves and die even faster / easier then in sunken. Since there are less adds you get less repairs and you can go on longer
3. Alts can stay outside behind the doors so they wont die from the shadow dmg
This is an easy boost, the only thing is that it is a bit harder to get to the boss (clearing is needed, even when summoning with a high lvl) but just ask the alts to get their mains to clear, works smooth.
I hope all this can help a few people around here, so they can lvl a bit faster and need to do less boring quests for the third/fourth/fifth time...
If this turns out to be a repost, I apologize and will link the original post in this startpost. I searched MMOWNED and google, didnt find the baronboost anywhere.
Have fun, and if you have comments or questions feel free to post.
Yes, because I was charging pots when boosting instead of money, to use later on, and yeah sometimes I pot so I don`t need to go trough too much probs...
If you have nothing else to say then that, why even post satansblood?

I posted this on the Original thread so I figured I might as well add it here too...
After a try, me and my friends (fellow Mmowned goers) we figured out the best possible way to do this is to. I apologize in advance for the absence of links as this is my first personal Mmowned account and I cannot link yet. Any rep passed my way would be greatly appreciated, however I realize this is a "repost" or addition to another person's guide.
Efficiency Guide:
1.) Clear the top circle of guys (obviously)
2.) Locate Zolo and Mi'jan
3.) Kite Mi'jan to Zolo (make sure the 4 leechers are already there waiting)
4.) Hit Zolo once and wait until he has 3 totems out then stun Zolo.
5.) move to a new location and consecrate.
6.) Rinse Repeat (see notes)
Notes:
A* I personally recommend using Figurine of the Colossus and the Commendation of Kael'thas as your trinkets for this encounter.
B* Blessing of Sanctuary is a Must
C* Offset the use of your Divine Favor Cooldown and your Figurine of the Colossus!
D* Stun Zolo everytime it is on Cooldown!
E* Always keep Seal of Wisdom up!
F* Every time you hit 20% mana stop for 30 sec.- a Minute and just get mana back use minimal spells. Use the Figurine to heal you at this point.
G* Have a Repair bot in your party or in your inventory ready to drop when all of your armor breaks at around the 1 hour mark.
H* Keep at least 1-2 stacks of mana pots available for those close calls.
I* If all of your gear is broken and there isn't a way to repair just DI a rezzing member of your party and restart. The group we did this with consisted of a Druid, a Warlock, a Mage, and 2 Pallies. 4-Leechers 1-70.
J* I tinkered with Specs and I found that this 40/21/0 Build worked best.
Holy (40 points)
5/5 Redoubt
5/5 Toughness
1/1 Blessing of Kings
3/3 Improved Righteous Fury
3/3 Shield Specialization
3/3 Improved Hammer of Justice
Retribution (0 points)
None
If you follow all of the steps listed above and keep your spell rotation solid you can go for hours without reseting or interruption. On our best run we went through 3 hours of uninterrupted grinding. This included 3 separate full repairs, the use of 3 mana pots, 5 white shields, 4 epic shields, and 1 lay on hands. I hope this helps anyone who might have been struggling to keep this going or wanted a way to make it more efficient. I will write more details on UD when we finish it up. I will also hopefully be able to provide a video of this specific rotation in the coming days. Thanks for reading. =)
srrybut that is crap. Consecration will damage the bosses too much and you would see that i mentioned this explicitly just cause i think that is a flaw in the original plan, and what purpose has stunning zolo?
Moving all the time will also make you haave some skelettoms in your back, wich will make you get some more damage at those moments, things you can miss likehell.
The mijan kiting to zolo is mentioned in every previous thread, and all the rest that you said 2.
You dont ever need to DI, just jump down and the bosswill reset without aggroing the low lvls.
Also, keep seal of light up instean of seal of wisdom. You will rarely go low health, so that > wisdom.
The colossus thing and the repair bot are however good ideas, but we went on for 3-4 hours without it and without any probs.

Fast lvling by boosting 35-60
