Hey Everyone,
I'm a new dual-boxer (dual instancing) and I've got a quick question I was hoping you could shed some light on for me.
I've narrowed down 4 classes I'd like to take to 60. Ive got two accounts with r-a-f benefits running atm.
Classes:
Warrior
Hunter
Priest
Druid

Ive narrowed it down to these combos I guess:
Warrior/Priest then Hunter/Druid
or
Warrior/Druid then Hunter/Priest

Any tips would be well appreciated!
Thanks!

Personally I'd do Warrior/Priest then Hunter/Druid.

Why? The druid is already a good solo class -- you won't need the priest's rez. A warrior (or at least when I play warrior) I'm much more likely to die and need a rez.

Furthermore, you can spec the priest shadow and do passive healing for the warrior (via VE).


There isn't much synergy in Hunter/Druid unless you lead with the druid as feral. Personally I like the pet as a tank so I'd make the druid boomkin and just deal with teh fact that they have little synergy. The pet makes an awesome tank and BM hunters can level to 70 completely naked anyway so the druid's just along for the ride.

Warrior/druid imo. Best combination for 2v2 arena?

Well, one account will have a warrior and a hunter, and the other a priest and a druid, so I will be able to use them interchangeably for arenas.. after I get them all to 70

I was under the impression that he was going to do one warrior, one druid, one priest, one hunter -- regardless. War/druid may be a good endgame combo for PvP, but I'd disagree for leveling. It's not a BAD combo, but I think war/priest for leveling is better.

Personal opinion of course :)
