I know that most 5 boxers that are PVP-centric post this very same post when they get to this level, but I'm going to do it anyways.

I got to lvl 55 on my 5 Shaman group, and decided to do the 5-6 quests in AV that give great XP. I loaded up StinkyQueue and jumped in. I did 3 AV's, and for all 3 I had my 5 toons in the top 8 for kills. It was INSANELY FUN! Finding a place in AV where you can shoot "through" the mountainside without people seeing, hunkering down with 20 totems, and unleashing the FURY... was pure bliss. Even at lvl 55, I was instagibbing everything in sight except highly geared plate-wearers with tons of stam.

I had quite a few fans in there following me around, and even found a pally friend that noticed my devastation potential and kept me healed for an entire match.

IMO, the best part wasn't necessarily the killing, but how little I died. I averaged only "wiping" maybe 3 times a match. It was great. If 1 died, I'd rez him... if 2-3 died in quick succession, I just let them all die.

Anywho, I'll stop my rambling and get back to work :)

Yeah, I had a blast the first time around with my girls, though I didn't go in until level 70.

Of course, 150k honor from AV later... I'm kind of ready to be finished with the grind hehe :)

I went at 52ish with my twins sans-70 for the quests(Stealthing through the cave for trinket ftw lolz managed to make it all the way without being spotted since they nerfed the harpies juuuuuust enough to get past); got 'em all done within 3 games, made a killing in honor and exp...then at 61 or 62 I took 'em in to play with the big boys in the 61-70 bracket...first game we burnt down Galv then defended IB once we took it...I never got a chance to rest long enough to move up so the game ended(In our favor) with me at the top of the dmg done/HK/killing blow lists and my alts a lil ways down the list pulling their weight

They only died once during the initial invasion of IB when 2 or 3 mages spotted "us" and they all fucking homed in on me like assholes and started spamming AE for all they were worth while the rest of my team destroyed them...since my alts' hp was shit they died fairly quick but I survived, pala res'd 'em both, I rebuffed and buffed the pala as a thanks and set up shop as the horde kept trickling in thinking "HAY LOWBIES FREE KILL LOL" then promptly get fucked raw before even the lowbies die by moonfire & wrath spam out the wazoo

The lesson here kids is this: NEVER UNDERESTIMATE AN ANGRY FATHER BOOMKIN PROTECTING IT'S YOUNG >D lol

I need to put some music to the video I made of my first 50-59 AV that I did with my 5x sham then I'll post it. AV is crazy as a multi-boxer you can almost play defense solo with the 1 shotting 3 people at a time strat.

AV is the best. I love that place. I can't wait till they make it so you can queue your entire group. PreformAV doesn't work too well.

AV has to be the most fun BG to multibox in. It also appears that you get less heat from other players (of your faction). Its a shame that Stormstrike horde have 2 hour queues, 45 min on AV weekends.
