New here

[Andreauk]

Hi all :) I'm new here and new to multi boxing. Here is my first ever video of some of my boxing antics. Was very happy to complete mana tombs and even do the escort quest. Go easy on me :P

Just one thing.. now I'm 67 should I keep grinding instances to level fast or switch to questing? I have the wrath expansion on all 5 accounts.

Questing is "faster", supposedly.

What do you prefer? =)

You might consider making sure you do all the quests for each instance and running instances for particular gear drops you want and otherwise doing world quests.

I for one prefer instance grinding to questing because its less hassle than trying to deal with quests for 5 people.

I love grinding instances.. someone said it was faster to quest. I know that the bar hardly moves when handing in quests, but when I have run an instance I can really see the results. I guess the only drawback is the repair bill.

I've been doing nothing but questing and keeping the instances as a backup, in case I don't make it to 68. But I've done no collection quests and am doing fine. If you feel like taking a break from the grind, then quests can be a lot of fun and give some nice rewards.

Welcome to the addiction :)

Thanks Frojax, I am truly addicted. I'd rather play wow than shop! Guess I have it bad lol

I'm very close to 68 atm. Will do a bit of both I think.. I will be in the Wrath area soon.

The fastest leveling method is the method that you enjoy the most (and therefor can keep up the best.).

For me, instance leveling goes terribly slow, because I hate doing the same instance for more then once in a row, specifically during leveling. Most instance tend to be on the boring side, etc. Whilest questing keeps me busy with new things constantly and I can keep at it for longer. :p

Personally, I would only do instances when you're well rested. Then do all the kill quests you can find. The only reason I've ever grinded an instance was to a) farm a certain drop (or multiple drops for my shamans) or as I'm doing currently b) Emblems and Shards (40 shards away from 5 mammoths, woot!)

Do collections if you know it leads to a bigger chain, but for the most part collection quests suck.

I quested. But my play schedule let me get more rested than I would burn while questing. Once I had about 25% of a levels worth of rested I would go burn it off by farming the first boss in Underbog. The sanguine hibiscus sell for 4g a pop and I would have about 80 of them or so by the time I burned off that rested.

I quest with my intial crew of 5 (Pally + 4 Shammies), I ran some instances but nothing really reliable as my tank sucked. At 77 I moved to Icecrown and did the dailies everyday and leveled to 80 in no time.

I then leveled a DK solo and quested him solo until 68, hit Northrend and then did the quests till 71 and then AOE out of party grinded him from 71-80 in about 30 hours.

I did almost purely instance grinding from 60-68, and could really notice the experience gains through each instance. My team has hit 68 and I've hit a wall in that I've done all instances up to Black Morass and Shadow Labs at least 15 times and I am bored stiff of them all, but the next instances available are all level 70 and I seem to be lacking the dps punch I need to achieve success (Black Morass is owning me atm). Trying to avoid questing because I'm on a PVP server where EVERY ALLY I PASS tries to have a go at me and then calls in fiends, and I hate wasting time corpse running when I could be levelling.
