| - The Scholomance (SKOH-loh-mance), a vile academy for prospective necromancers of the Scourge, is located in the ruins of the palatial House of Barov, on a rise overlooking the abandoned city of Caer Darrow. The enemy level range is 40 - 43 and requires that you be at least level 33 to enter (level 38 to queue via Dungeon Finder). Many mini-bosses were removed when the instance was revamped for Mists of Pandaria. Prior to being re-tuned for a lower level range with Patch 4.0.3a, Scholomance was probably the single most efficient pre- instance for farming, with trash runs up to the Great Ossuary taking about 45 minutes for a fast player, and potentially yielding 100-200File:Gold.png, depending on which rare items dropped. The instance had a very rich loot table for the level range, and individual mobs tended to drop good amounts of both coins and [Runecloth], which generally sold well on the Auction House. In addition, necromancers and dark summoners (as well as a few of the bosses) dropped the prized [Dark Runes], which were useful for raiders and could command prices of 15-20File:Gold.png each on the Auction House. It was not uncommon for 3-4 to drop during a single run, adding potentially another 80File:Gold.png to the instance's yield.
