Worth leveling my 70 Shamans just for the Gladiatior Mount?

[Ellay]

I guess just kind of thinking aloud here, but my Orc Shamans which I completed most of my feats on have the Season 3 and 4 Gladiator mounts, the 310% speed is amazing and they are truly unique mounts (sorta). Am I crazy to even consider leveling them up to 80 and attempting to re-gear them like my current characters with the option of faction changes coming?

[accretion]

Are you crazy? No. Especially with BG xp being relatively quick nowadays.

Would I do it? Maybe. 310% is tempting...

[Ogloo]

hey ellay ive been confused for a while.. u have a 70 4 box shaman team (orc), then u decided to remake alliance alliance 4 shaman to 80? (why?), if so why not get ur glad. on ur alliance guys

[Ellay]

you can't transfer the titles, I just want it for the mounts basically :) I switched to alliance because when I first played wow I was on alliance~ going back to my roots. For the H.. Alliance!

I would lvl them up. 71 -80 in AV is cake. 310% on all 4 is very nice.

Go for it! then 8 box shammies.....

Frost wyrm mounts look awesome (much better than drakes in my opinion) so I say go for it.

edit: yes, I did read and comprehend ellay's post but I'm working on the assumption once at max level he won't be able to resist some more arena and a chance at another set of gladiator titles.

Do you think you could get there with you alliance toons? Is pvp still your primary goal in playing? Are there any arenas where you could use a 310% flyer? It seems cool but I am thinking the extra speed is just a boost to normally playing and maybe nice to chase down and kill people.

It's just a nice novelty item to have :) I'll try to pvp this season and see what happens, I need a little bit better gear and awaiting the Fan of Knives nerf, then it should be on!

[mrmcgee21]

Been leveling a rogue solo but you would be crazy NOT to level right now. Over 500k an hour exp on my solo sub 75 rogue who sucks. Put your shamans in AV atm and your going to dominate, even in the lower levels because its full of sub 80 people wearing no gear. You can get 5 levels a day easily though, hit 71 by questing first, as asoon as your 71, queue for av and never look back.

Oh also over 100k honor farmed so far at 76 now, so expect to hit 80 and immediately have several items, combined with WG mark farming.

PS: Bloodfury > Gift of the Naaru ( have 80 alliance as well )

[Gares]

I still prefer Gift of the Naruu but my 4 Horde shammies are troll so I don't really know how good bloodfury truly is.

[Eloxy]

Cmon ellay!

I mean your draenei's is cool and all... But you orcs is what made half of this pvp comunity!!!!!
think about it, 310 mounts, pimpest gear of all, and to be the original aelli orcs from old wtfbbq vids, if it was up to me, id swich back ;)

(on the other hand, i play alliance cuz of my roots and friends so i altso see your point )

The return of the king.

Also, there was the question at Blizzcon "...if we have a 310% mount but have other, better looking, slower mounts will there ever be an upgrade in the slower mounts' speed?" that seemed to get the panel interested.

The response was "we're thinking about it" though.

[TeamFrosty]

I say stay Alliance. Mainly because this is "Suxtobeyou" so I may be a bit biased. How'd your games finish up the other night? Playing at 2k MMR with gear thats1.5 seasons behind is tough without a doubt.

I was able to get 9 upgrades when S7 went live. maxed honor+ 1500 stone keepers shards and 300-400 WG marks of honor! gearing up is fast and easy! ) (PvP or PvE )

[Multibocks]

300 WG marks! Holy shit that is a lot of games!

Come back to Kiljaeden! :(

p.s. AV leveling sucks on KJ as alliance. Im getting maybe 200k exp/hour. I can easily beat that questing /pouts
