I still have yet to get a team past 60. Once the RAF experience dies, is it a really big hastle to grind out 60+? I would image it cant be TOO bad, but I just have been having so many problems lately with my software / hardware that its been hard to keep focus. I have the tme / desire to level, but I'm a perfectionist :)

Second question: I dont know what it is about me, but people who give me crap for multiboxing REALLY sets me off. I have to really hold myself back from going off on them. What Im talking about are comments like "OMG SCRUB u gota play leik 4 akounts 2 be good omg NOOB" I know that the person behind that is a complete moron, but how do you deal with it?

Going for 60-70 is not bad at all. Get a good leveling guide and questhelper and you should do fine - they cut the experience in half so you can skip most collection quests and grind out a few instances in between. I did it over about 6 days real life time while working durin ght eweek, it's not bad at all.

70-80 on the other hand, is grueling and painful. The amount of collection quests is just atrocious, and the expansion is set up like one long quest chain where everything unlocks another quest, even if they aren't directly related. A lot of boxers who were well geared when they hit 70 were grinding out instances most of the way. I've done the same, but my gear wasn't very good. I tried to do as much rested xp instance runs as possible, mostly UK and Old Kingdom. Other than that, you will defintiely hit some streaks where the quests in a zone are easy to multibox and you'll just blast through most of a level, then a few instance runs to finish.

I deal with the haters by giving them no response whatsoever. No tells, no witty quips or comebacks, not even so much as a jump. All they want is the satisfcation of seeing you pissed off or at least acknowledging them in some way, and I just deny them that. Most people will go away, the little kids will jump around you and talk nonsense and even start sending tells when they realize you don't give two shits what they have to say.

In battlegrounds if the abuse is bad, I click on the combat log so I can't even see bg chat. Being ignored is the ultimate insult.

As for the level grind, do Boomkins do very well in instances? I know a few people on the boards say they have boomkins and they do well, but I'm a complete noob when it comes to Druids and I only have 4, not 5.

your deff right about the leveling. I got my shaman team to 70 easy peezy in outlands then at 68 went to nr and made 70. Next got on my dk team did samething then i gt to lvl 73 atm. But om friggin god i feel like i am leveling as slow if not slower thena turtle moves. I mean yea i did all quest in bt but out in hf i am missing 11 quests and you know what they are COLLECTION grrrrrrr. So i figured i am going to get to 80 someday right and when i decide to lvl my professions i will do all the quests i need to do the achievements in nr. Oh on professions i have 22 toons that will be 80, 14 of those toons are miners. You say why TITANSTEEL. One day cooldown from what ive seen so i can make 14 bars a day and on my server 200g a bar so go get mats not hard to do and make 1400-2800g a day just from that. So until the market drops out on them i could make enough money to afford all my epic flyers mounts and cold weather flying np.

Depending on my mood I will generally ignore ignorant whispers with nothing more then a chuckle to myself or screw with them. In chat if someone brings it up I try to enlighten them without being a jerk, if it's a busy zone there are usually one or two people that will chime in to help me or at least tell them to stfu if they are being stupid.

As far as battlegrounds I have learned to at least respond or they start getting everyone to report you afk so I'll say something like "I am too busy trying to win a BG to discuss boxing or anything other then how to win the BG really, as you should be". After that the scoreboard can speak for itself, since I am pretty much always on offense it looks decent even if we end up losing. Yeah I realize I am honor farming but then again that is exactly what everyone else is doing, at least we aren't doing it afk ;)

70-80 for me went just as fast as 60-70 did, pre-xpnerf.

Man, I'm pretty sure you've been on this board longer than me and you're still leveling teams to 60? I know I saw you post the first time I read the board but my RAF expired like 1 1/2 months ago. If I had spent so much time leveling to 60 I'd probably be sick of the game and ready to give up by now after doing the same content so many times!

I just tell them I get lonely and its much more fun to play with myself....

Usually they leave me alone after that...dunno why

In all honestly, I have not had issues yet with leveling in WOTLK. I have done maybe 1-2 collections quests and i am sitting @ level 76 and I am in Dragonblight >.> I've done a few instances runs. I've been able to clear the nexus and UK minus the end bosses with not that much issue. This is on 5 shamans. I really think the key is rested exp and not over doing it in a session.

If you've only done 1 or 2 collection quests its probably fair to say you've missed half the content.

The only way ive found to get through 70-80 is to suck it up and do 90% of the collection ones, once you get the hang of them they really aint that bad, unless its a awful drop rate or few mobs on a long respawn then I wont bother - especially if I know its not a chain anyway (wowhead will tell you this).

When you get to dragonblight (i think thats the zone) make sure you do -every- quest there basically, they all lead up to the wrathgate and battle for uc which are awesome.

I must agree, most of the collection quests arenīt that bad, espacialy in wotlk. Great quest content on wotlk.
