If you mean a high level character running low levels through instances then i would say a Paladin

Answer by Jonathon
feral druids are great for that, trust me.

Answer by Arath
There’s a famous paladin tank called wowhobbs that has a lot of videos, including some on powerlevelling in low level instances:

Don’t know if that’s the best class though, any class capable of tanking/aoe’ing should do fine.

Answer by Dustin M
Any class that has an area of effect (AOE) spell works pretty good. If the spell is instant cast, then that’s all the better.
For example, a rogue has a spell called Fan of Knives that works instantly, no delay. So rogues are good for running lower player through instances.
Paladins are often stated as the best because they can have a lot of armor and hit points, making them better tanks. I agree with this depending on the level of the instance. If the mobs in the instance are level 30, and the high character running you through the instance is level 80, then a paladin is certainly not necessary.

Answer by Tony
Death Knights and Paladins are both the kings of running lowbies through instances. Depending on the instance, getting a level 60-70 DK may be favorable due to the smaller penalty in experience gained. The run won’t be any slower than a fully epic geared death knight either.

However, any class with powerful AoE will suffice. The higher level instances (ZF and up) might be harder for cloth and leather wearers, they’ll have to pull smaller packs at a time and will therefore take longer.

pally or priest

Answer by Hank
I would say a tauren shammy. For sure, this class can chain heal multiple lower levels, stun when things get a little too crowded, and deal out a heck of a lot of DPS.

Answer by Gamer 99
Paladin you will be able to heal your teammates if they are getting hurt and do a lot of damage

Answer by Marc
Best available are mage and paladin; downside to the mage is mana-usage; downside to paladin is the melee/orientation the class has.

Answer by WoW master
Paladin Or Death Knight.If you go with death knight,pull a bunch(depending on your level),and use death and decay.

Druids!

Answer by Asema
Definitely a pally. Can solo a lot as ret. I have a level 80 ret pally, and just use seal of wisdom, free Flash of Light when Art of War pops for the harder instances.
Over level 70 instances, I take my holy priest buddy along with me 😉

Paladins or possibly mages – if it’s DMs or below rogues with fan of knives are good.

I can pull the entire instance with my gnome rogue and fan of knives them down. (I couldn’t do it before I was GEARED though.)

Answer by Mike
I’ve been running low level people through instances as a mage since before Burning Crusade. Mages are the best because we can run through the instance, gather all the creatures and then hit a couple AoE spells to kill them all.
