Monsters that are ranged are tougher to do this strategy on, but not impossible. Avoid monsters that silence, mana burn, fear, sleep, etc.Target monsters a few levels lower than your mage for maximum XP yield.
Tips for the Mage
Use frost nova to root monsters so that you can AOE them without getting damaged as much. Also remember that you can combo frost nova with cone of cold for some massive damage if you are frost specced! If the priest is getting hit you are both dead since his heals will be interrupted. Make sure you move around to keep aggro on all monsters.wow gold
Frost nova will also prevent mobs from running when they get low hp.
Mage Build
Pretty much any build will do, just make sure that you have improved arcane explosion. If you go frost make sure to get improved crit % of cone of cold as well as lower the cooldown on frost nova. wow goldIf you go fire then combustion is nice for that initial bang.
Priest Build
Improved PW:S is a very wise investment. Also improved flash heal (70% chance to not be interrupted) is a good thing to have if you want your mage to be able to survive while you are getting hit, however it is not necessary if your mage is doing his job. wow gold
Finally, a mage can do this himself without a priest but it is much less efficient. Typically a mage can only do this to 3-5 monsters at a time maximum because of their low hp and no healing abilities. If you do the math, 5/1 is less than 20/2 so by duoing with a priest you are actually increasing your own profits!
