Thanks in Adv.

Just a basic reply but...

For PvE I'd try and cover as many classes as I could that are semi-useful [and still easy to box] in a raid.
For PvP I'd try and keep most of the classes the same for ease of nuking enemy players down quicker without having to micro manage.

That is about the extent of my 10 boxing knowledge. :)

PvE, I'd add Priest, Druid, Paladin (x2 maybe) and a Mage.
That gets you a lot of the buffs; you could go with a Pally as the second tank and for AoE tanking.. and maybe Priest/Druid both as healers, which lets all of your shammies dps.

If you were looking for PvP, I'd probably go with either 5x Shammies or 4x Shammies + 1x Druid, depending on if you wanted to add 5x to your existing mix, or level and gear a second group and then run them together.

Thanks for the reply... Will need to buy a new PC this coming weekend + 5 more Accounts...

Is there any ideas to level them up? i read somewher abt spilt up the new 5 toons? Or should i train the 5 toon together?

Well I would do 5 fire mages but I really dont know how other clases work at higher levels (my highest is level 74 pal).

Living Bomb is the ultimate pvp spell (super long range, instant cast, stacks with each other, no cool down lol). Mages are squishy for sure but 4 shaman doing chain heals is going to be nice healing. Not sure about pve but mages cant be all that bad. Also the end end game is all about pvp so I would make group with that in mind.

Although no doubt shaman are by far the best all around class the fact is that mages are better on offensive and priests on healing. You have yur core of shaman so I think that offence is yur next step.

My website has the best raf method:

You Level

4 X from 1 to 30
2 X from 30 to level 60
You pay for one transfer from one account to another ($25)

The 4 and the 2 all get rafX3 exp.

You get:

5 X Level 60.


Get IsBoxer also ...
And Jamba


And finally I would get a pally or some have said bear driud for your tank. DK is needed for death grips, chains of ice in pvp but takes way to much work for pve. Maybe 4 mages and a pally is best.

[Ualaa]

I would probably go with a chain like this:

A -- B -- C
A -- D -- E

And then character transfer a boosting toon to the "A" account.
And boost several sets (ideally 4 toons), on BCDE with A.

Every four toons boosted (four per account, on BCDE), gets you:
- Four toons on BCDE.
- Two toons on BD from CE, via granted levels.
- Four toons on A from BD, via granted levels.
- Two additional toons on A, from BD based on granted levels received from CE.

For a total of:
A) Six plus booster.
B/D) Six.
C/E) Four.

That gets you, whatever you want to add to your existing five toons for PvE and for PvP, and possibly another set or two, of something you'd like to try but did not level up on your initial five.
Chances are, you are primarily interested in PvE or PvP, so from 60th level the five which will help you the most first.

You can RAF to 60th in a couple of days, fairly easily.. say a weekend. Or a week per team, playing rather casually.

If you're doing another five accounts from scratch, I'd definitely RAF and get a few toons.

Assuming you want to go PvE, I'd recommend looking at the group composition discussions like here (http://www.dual-boxing.com/showthread.php?t=28374) and here (http://www.dual-boxing.com/showthread.php?t=17539) and here (http://www.dual-boxing.com/showthread.php?t=20928).

There are some other threads, use the search to find 'em.

As far as PvP, not sure there, as I don't PvP much.

[hUi33]

heh wait i m abit confuse atm. Been away for too long...

Ok, I already have 5 toons. It was like 1 years+ ago, so i assume the RAF bonus(Exp 300% for 3 months?) is gone.

The 5 Toons are DK + 4 Shamans.

I have read quite a number of post given by the bros. And i was thinking i could have switch out my DK for a Pala, and maybe 1-2 shaman for other class.

Okie the BIG Question mark on my head is:

should i buy 5 more accounts and create the new toons on the 5 accounts?
OR
make those chars on my shamie and use my DK to lvl them up, then transfer to the new accounts?

[Sam DeathWalker]

You get your 5 new accounts and put the new characters on them.

You can use your DK to level them up if you instance boost or you can tag boost like I do. (find mobs one level over grey to the DK /i.e. easyest mobs to kill for DK that still give DK exp/, group 4 with DK, tag with DK, use ungrouped shammy to heal and/or aoe kill). I assume you can get all 10 into the game at the same time. I never quest so I don't know anything about it.

There is no reason at all to level them up on the same accounts then you have then pay to move them to new accounts and lose out on raf ....

[Ualaa]

If you want to go from 5 accounts to 10, you'll need five additional accounts either way.

It makes more sense to RAF link the 5 accounts together.
If your existing accounts are A-E, you could link the new accounts F-J from one of the existing accounts.
Something like:

E -- F -- G -- H
E -- F -- I -- J

I'd recommend a boosting type toon (probably a tank) although any 80th AoE class would work, to be transferred to the "F" account.
Although you'll group F-G-H-I-J together, if they're linked from E, then E will receive a free month of play and an RAF mount, plus get granted levels from F (which would only be the cascade granted levels from G and I, but that's still free levels).

Basically treat F, G, H, I, and J as five brand new accounts, as far as leveling goes.
Definitely take advantage of RAF, getting to 60th any combination you find fun, or that you missed.
Along with whatever you want to compliment your existing five accounts.
