Just curious how UBRS is for 5x 70s.

Thinking of heading into there to finish up the Onyxia questline and just wondering how UBRS is for 5-boxing.

should be cake, before i started 5 boxing i would run alts through all he lvl 60 5 mans on my priest...i soloed everything, Scholo,Strat, DM (kinda tough), LBRS, never tried UBRS though, but you shouldn't have a problem.

Yeah, it's pretty easy. Drak is the only one that's interesting and then only if you're all squishies.

Cool... only curious because UBRS was (is) considered a raid instance...

Cool... only curious because UBRS was (is) considered a raid instance...Yeah, I remember when 15-manning UBRS was hard.

Yeah its pretty cake. If you are all casters then Drak may be mildly difficult, though I found the packs of dragons before him harder than he was (still not hard). It was pretty fun actually to go back and reminisce, also picking up 2 ace of beasts was nice >:) Though as much as I enjoyed it, it only slightly offset the pain of getting the onyxia key.

I recently soloed BRD on my 70 lock with my paladin healbot in tow. Its highly entertaining and challenging to "ironman" the old content and its nice to not have to wait for your groupmates to get their sh*t together =)

Opt and I 10manned it just the other day. It took roughly 10 minutes to clear if you don't count all the times I lagged and d/c'd. Oh to be back in the day, good, good times.

Instances as 5box is great...at least you don't have to argue who summons!

It probably depends what the "5x70s" actually are, but I multiboxed the BWL attunement with my balanced instance group (pally, mage, mage, hunter... or maybe Warlock, can't remember which I used, priest) with no drama at all.

Ubrs is fairly simple. The only thing you need is two classes (or pets) that can take hits from Drakkisath. Since he does conflag and drops aggro on the tank for x seconds.

Some classes can two man it easily (resto shaman and bm hunter for example). But the only annoying part really is drakkisath's conflag. You just need something to counter that. (Either a lot of dps to down him instantly or a second capable tank-ish)

I 4-boxed it with mages at 70 just to see how it would go. The toughest fight was Rend. Had to be careful with mana in that one. The good thing was that the mobs wouldn't aggro me if I avoided 'em. Just did the "arena drinking" thing and engaged when I was ready.

Agreed. Cake.

Suvega and I did it for my Ony attunement and BWL stuff... 2x5 boxing. We ended up just each taking our own pull on our way down. Cakewalk.

If you have 5x priests or 1 priest and 4x mages you can go leroy on its ass and aoe the hole thing down.

I've been meaning to try it solo on my Prot Pally, just haven't got round to it.

I really doubt it would be in the leat bit difficult for 5x 70's considering its level range.
