EU Dungeon Boosting classes and realms

Zårthenniz

Grandfathered
I've been doing dungeon boosting for about a month or two now, since i was first introduced to the 101 bracket. (I hate to use the work twink, except as as advantage to sell boosts, hence "bracket").
After learning some lessons, i want to plan out a little more for further alts.

Background:
I started with a DH and went with vengeance to keep costs low. I know the class very well and is easy to push it with limited gear. I started out with 50k. spammed leather farming, sold some PoPP and shuffled some gear. after investing 800k, i'm pretty stable at boosting. (during these 6 weeks, i've made maybe 2mill gold). On my current realm, there is really high demand.

I took these lessons over onto a new char recently to support boosts also on alliance server. I had a 100 sitting for a year and pushed 1 lvl, capped it and began to gear. Again,with little investment, made a standard Blood DK. Strangely enough, i manged to get some leech gear pretty cheap but had committed already to blood. Unfortunately, the realm is almost completely dead and is difficult to cross realm advertise, without also a decent 101 on that realm to help convince people.

TLDR:
I'm RAFing myself, together with a friend to quickly push some alts to 90.
I'm looking for some advice as to which characters, at 101, have decent to strong mobility, combined with on demand AoE.

Boomkin seems really obvious - I like to have a bit of a challenge. So far, not many people complained about speed and are very satisfied with the service i provide. I'd probably make one later in time as a backup.

I'm making a mage right now, looking to go fire for scorch mobility, blinking and, i hope, decent AoE.

I read elsewhere Destro Lock, looking for some input.

DK will be very quick to make, do starting quests, grant 33 lvls and off i go. I have blood already, maybe branch out to UH or Frost?

I'm seeing Ret pala is not a good choice, but i wonder why not, when they can have 2 horsey horsies and, as i thought, a lot of AoE?

I see shamen are great, elemental would probably be my go-to. I played one at 110, but worried the AoE buildup of Maelstrom is maybe not good enough for huge pulls. Ghost wolf brings mobility, but stop casting time, limited by Chain Lightning might slow back down?

If anyone has some suggestions, or even want to see a different class or spec tried out, i can also try to work on it and post some kind of status / progress / review whatever.

For example, i wonder if a MW monk would even work since it's got AoE and damage capabilities. Something else crazy can be an option when it's viable.

For me, the 101 bracket is really fun, especially right now since for me the expansion is pretty much dead.

Finally, i'm looking for some suggestions for realms that are popular and looking for boosting services. Usually, the ones with the "WTS web bots" or guilds boosting +10 etc are a good indication.

I'll play both factions, but would need to be English speaking base :)

Appreciate any input on a class you've had good or bad experience with.

Thanks !

From my experience, I can say its no problem with Maelstrom. Im running with 12% leech (2 pieces) and i dont drop lower than 90% HP. Just spam 1-2 chain lightning and use Earthquake twice and i wont drop any HP. I can pull all mobs to Boss and oneshot them
 
I'll set up the Shaman next.

Right now i made a (fire) mage to 90 and a (destro) lock to 90. I'll go next for shaman and await some further feedback before getting then to 101 and spending any money on them :)
