Went in with Paladin and 4 x DK and did the quests and rares to unlock the Warfront

What I walked away with:

- Highland Mustang mount
- Witherbark Direwing mount
- Lil' Donkey Mount
- Multiple pets, lost track

Paladin
- 345 belt (warforged)
- 340 1h Hammer
- 340 2H Sword
- 370 Trinket (Heroic)

DK 1
- 340 belt
- 340 cloak

DK 2
- 340 2h hammer
- 340 bracers
- 340 Helmet

DK 3
- 340 Shoulderpads
- 340 gloves
- 340 pants
- 340 boots

DK 4 <- The lucky one!
- 340 chest
- 340 bracers
- 340 gloves
- 340 belt
- 350 boots (Warforged)

Funny story, I swooped in where 2 poor folks were taking on a tough rare and started exploding it.
Guy yells "MULTI BOX HERO!"

Good times

(edit: missed some things)

I'm worried that the loot was bugged. I got a few mounts as well ( two raptor mounts) and lots of 340 gear. was too easy. Anyways, ill be back today to try for more!

You know I think I agree. I mean one of my characters got 5 pieces of gear and I didn't roll bonus loot on anything.

Although, I am trying to treat this as a "catchup" mechanic and hope that it was intentional.
We'll see I guess.

BTW, you're on Whisperwind! Me too. You in a guild?

No mounts for me. Got a few pets and loads of gear including a 365 piece. How often are we allowed to kill the rares? Do they reset when the warfront changes sides?

Yes, just DON'T zone out if you aren't done, apparently Horde can't get back in after you leave. At least that's what I'm hearing

Did this last night, was also a lot of fun. I think I got 8 pieces of gear, 2 mounts and a bunch of toys/battle pets, and the world boss gave me a 370 trinket.
Was enough gear to help me do my first mythic in ilvl 315 avg!

Just takes longer to get there since the portal is gone. At least it had for me. I went back to get a few rares I had missed.

Yet to reach 120 to try them out, are they like LFR and people can vote kick you?

Nope they are just rares on the map. Anyone can tag em and kill them with you. I got so much gear there it was crazy.

Get the Handynotes addon for this because there are lots you will miss.

My first run through here was on my Paladin group, they each walked away with 3-6 pieces of gear and 5 pets, no mounts :(

I just finished with my Druid team and ..... shitty shitty drops! Two characters didn't get anything but pets, no gear. One character got the same piece of gear 3 times. The Druids were ripped off.

Just took my 5 pali team through. Received total of 9 pets, 4 toys, 2 mounts, and 7 gear. Through out 7 duplicate toys as well.

So when you have the queue for the warfront scenario, are we, as multiboxers, better at just helping kill stuff? or would the raid benefit more from us gathering?

I ride around and help to kill the bosses to activate stuff at the very start, then im on a constant watch afterwards to stop and kill and patrols of the oposite faction: you can see them on the world map, a group of mobs is heading towards "x" and the zone map updates their location realtime. If possible i also help secure new bases.

Well, finally got to get in and do some attacks with the team a couple of times.

1st Warfront - went great. Everyone got their 370 and a 340 piece.

2nd Warfront - One of the team died next to the demolishers or whatever and I could NOT rez him, tried and tried.
I should have just ran him back but I was determined to rez him. Guy calls me afk and group kicks me. I ended up leaving early.
I can see how they'd think he might have been afk, kinda my fault.

3rd Warfront - I'm running around leading with my paladin, doing the little quests I didn't do at first. You know run around and learn where the places are. Went and collected some ore and came back and was reading the other quests and finishing them up. Mind you I'm leading from the paladin. Guy yells out "Hey there'a multiboxer here just standing in town" and they vote-kicked the paladin, AS I was doing quests.
I finished the warfront but, I exited out after that.

WTF? I was so mad. I was actively running around and only stood a few seconds here and there to read quests.
I think maybe it was just an attack on me because I'm a boxer, even though most of the time, I was leading the charge and taking out elites and clearing areas. *shrug*

Anyone else seen anything like that?


PS. Weird story on the 2nd warfront with my toon that died and got kicked. I could NOT return to graveyard. After I left the warfront even my paladin couldn't rez him. Stuck didn't work. I had to submit a ticket that I couldn't move and got ported to Westfall by the support system which rezzed me. Very odd bug.

I personally have had a very good time in the warfront attacks. the method I use is as follows:

1. kill first boss
2. Straight to mine, kill boss and cap
3. Valorcall, the first base north, kill and cap.
4. Then I mount, run around and dot the 2 war machines, corruption never runs out so over the next 12 mins it does about half their hp. I take the death from the mobs and res in base.
5. Collect iron and donate to either whatever building needs it and grab a 2 stack of the dmg buff.
6. Take highperch of newstad whichever hasnt been taken.
7. Defend attack waves until sieges are built.
8. I return to base with 2 mins left on buff to refresh with 3rd and 4th stack.
9. Proceed with sieges to end the instance.

EDIT: If I have extra iron I use it on buying the healers. You can take circle of elements while sieges are killing war machines.

I never got booted, but people would comment on me being there. I read " anyone else think its weird a multiboxer is taking up a huge portion of the raid?" Even though I only 5 box lol.. But was all prots.

I didn't know about a buff! Ill look for that next time. I was afraid to try and do gathering, so I just patrol and killed stuff.

Yea, the altar of kings. Once it's built you can hand in 10 of either resource for a buff that stacks up to 4. Lasts 10 mins. Increases dmg/healing/hp by 20% each stack. If stagnate your hand ins it will refresh, you can't refresh at 4 stacks.

yea i got a ton of hate, i did about 20 of them with 8 toons at once and people would protest and just sit there but i was able to pretty much solo them lol, if you run straight to the mine and loot those carts with all toons at once they all get loot credit instead of 1 so you can 200 iron cap all toons in a few carts, Then run to newstead and cap that so you can recruit 2 knights per toon and you are almost unstoppable. They do sooo much damage, also go to the alter of kings and grab the buff on the left at 4x stacks. with that i can kill those 2 8mil hp siege towers faster than 3 siege tanks can
