For the Alliance!/For the Horde!

Has anyone 5-boxed this Achievement? Wondering if I should bother trying or if I should get my guild's help.

I remember videos of this; could check the movie forum.

It will depend on your server. If you can engage the leaders, without a lot of others assisting them, I'd say you can probably 5-box this. If you're going to have several opponents join into the fight, well having a guild or pug raid with you will definitely be an asset.

I was able to kill the Night Elf and Space Goat bosses no problem. The Stormwind king would be possible, but every time i tried it i get to about 25% and then all the alliance show up. If i had more DPS to kill him faster or maybe try it when fewer people are on it might go better. From what i have read the Ironforge boss would be a pain to kill as a MB. I think someone, maybe Mercucio? had some videos posted on some of the kills.

Tried to find videos in the movies area, but no luck. Searching didn't seem to find anything relevant either. =(

You'll probably need your guilds help right now for at least Org/Stormwind.

Remember, the "leader meetings" are going on so you'll have to engage multiple raid bosses (6 in stormwind & at least 3 in org (maybe 4, don't know if Etrigg is raid level).

Thanks for posting this and Maxion's videos. I never even thought about it.

So last night at midnight I ran over to Silvermoon and downed Lor'themar Theron. I pulled them all into the side chamber to set up a bottleneck in case Horde showed up. About 5-6 Horde came, but they just stood there and watched. I think they were expecting a bigger force ;)

Now I'm on a mission to get this on all teams. Will definitely bring some friends for Thrall.

I know this can be 2 manned, so as long as one of the 5 is a tank, and the party has some heals, I don't see why this wouldn't be 5-boxable.

The fact that they can be 5-boxed is actually a joke. Don't understand why blizzard didn't buff them with the gearupgrades throughout wotlk. A city/faction boss should require a huge raid. Now any dork that walks by farts and they die. I even saw a dk the other day who was soloing him (killed him though).

Apart from that it's fun to do as a boxer of course, and you should go for it. But it doesn't make much sense to me that it is possible.

Killed the Blood Elf boss easily.
Tried to kill Sylvanas but too many Horde showed up and we didn't clear the guards in the room first. Big mistake.
Working on Cairne at the moment, as I type.
Not looking forward to Thrall.

Update - Killed Cairne, had no chance at Thrall - too many horde players

Pro-tip if you go to Orgrimmar:
Focus fire on Garrosh first. Chances are, if some horde toons are there and see you do that they will probably let you finish.
