View Full Version : [WoW] Gimmick team to use up my RAF.

so, moving from 3 to 5 accounts has left me with 2 running RAFs.

I currently have all the toons I want at max level, but it feels a shame to not make use of all that triple xp goodness,
Therefore, i'm thinking of building a gimmick team, which will most likely not go past level 60.
I have an 80 tank on my unlinked account so boosting will not be a problem

First I started a team of 4 pig-tailed gnome mages, just for the fun, but by level 5 i realized there was no point since all my toons are horde. I am now thinking of doing 4 troll mages instead, to join my existing 80 troll mage when they arrive at a higher level, just to try out 5xglyphed mirror image :-)
but then i realized Mirror image is a level 80 skill, so i'll probably never get to use it x5.

so looking further i noticed that druids get Force of Nature (treants) at level 50, and it sounds like a very satisfying thing to use them x4 :-)
Any other class that has gimmicks like that which would be usable at a reasonably early stage (level 60 or lower) ?

Cheers,

Not knowing which classes you already have several of at high level, here are the ones I can think of.
Not sure how gimmicky you want them though.

Shamans (enh) for ghost wolves at 60. (and the forest of totems / chain heal fun times)
Mages (frost) for water elementals at 50 (I think it's 50).
You already said druids.
Death knights for army of the dead whenever they get it (not all that useful as far as RaF goes since they start at 55 and can't be boosted until about 57-58, and I'm not sure what level they get army, don't think my lvl 65 has it yet).
Warriors and paladins for their respective spin attacks at 60. (not so gimmicky)
Rogues for killing spree at 60. (not so gimmicky either)
Priests for holy nova awesomeness now and in cata as discussed in threads such as recent ones in the movies forum. (not really gimmicky)
Warlocks (demon) for Metamorphosis at 60.

Thanks for the feedback.
my higher levels toons are in my sig :-) paladin, shaman, druid, priest, warrior at 80 and mage at 79.9 ;)
on the unlinked account i also have a rogue and hunter at 70 and lock and dk in the 60s.

5x hunters would be fun at sub-60 levels i guess.
5x shamies ,didnt think of the totem farm lol, but a bit seen too often..
5x locks and the resulting dot-extravaganza!
5x mages... hadn't thought of x5 elementals... or 5 Pom Pyros.. or 5x arcane missiles !


i think i might have convinced myself to go troll mages again..

ARGH. important decisions are so hard to make lol (and then i'll need to pick names >.< )

Heh, yeah, I read about extended maintenance and made plans for tonight... might as well get the RL stuff out of the way while the servers are down :P

I'm currently on a priest kick, so I'd seriously suggest them. I'm looking forward to dual-speccing them disc and seeing how well they do in PvE with 4 priests and a tank. I think the passive healing of smite would be enough to keep the tank alive, when mixed with shields.

i thought about priests, but i levelled 2 already and am not too sure about the class.
i think i'm pretty set on mages atm, and will try and get 4 of them to 60 quickly, to either join my current 80 mage to blast shit, or my 80 warrior to instance. The advantage of priests would obviously be the healing ability, which brings me back to think of druids.. DAMN YOU CLASSES.

With my last round of RAF, I put in order the classes I thought I'd want to multibox at some point and then I leveled them to 60 until I couldn't handle anymore. In the end, I didn't make hunters, rogues, or warriors (or DKs, but those are easy to get to 60).

As I'm getting to 80, I noticed one thing - the classes I enjoy playing the most are ranged DPS with healing ability: priests, druids, and shaman. I'm sure locks and mages are fun, but in the end I personally loved being able to heal my toons with ease.

Just my .02 without a point :P

pretty much went that way as well. my favorite part of the game is healing. my first 80s were a paladin, shaman, druid and priest :-)
Then i added a warrior and now a mage.

for this second team, i thought of what i'd want it to be eventually, and for taht (instances) i needed a healer.
in the end i created 3 troll mages, and 1 troll priest. They will either join my 80 mage later on, or make use of my 80 warrior.

Along the way, i might mix them with my 58 dk or 63 lock, but i'll probably just use the mage or warrior to boost them.

Thanks for all the input !
