I'm currently leveling 2 groups, an all shaman group and a 5 toon 4 class holy trinity group. I'm thinking of taking them into some of the lower level BGs while leveling. Maybe I'll skip the 19 bracket since everyone's twinked out there. What's everyone's experiences with lower level BG's. Which BG's do you play and at what level? If you're instancing, is the BG gear even useful?

Welcome to the Forums !!!

I dont BG while leveling because I dont want to deal with the drama that comes with multiboxing in BG's early on. Furthermore, in my personal exsperence the gear that you spend time getting is more valuable spent leveling your guys to 70. But this is just my opoin. If you could get exp from BG's like you used to Pre-BC I would level my guys doing nothing but. But unless you plan on making just a twink team, I would not do it. Yet, once again just my opion. Give it a shot and tell us what you think about it. :thumbup:

I farmed 80 AB marks before i turned 70, i did most of them in the 50-60 bracket and did so at level 59. It was the best thing i ever did. As much as i enjoy quad boxing AB, its usually 50/50 chance of winning and is totally dependant on your team mates. You could say this about most other BGs but for some reason i get a much higher win rate in AV / Eots.

As someone already said, it's likely that you'll get a lot of drama in the lower brackets of battlegrounds.. I did a few WSG's at lvl 18-19, and even though I had fun scaring the horde that came into the alliance base, not expecting 5x curses to hit them where it hurt, some of the members in my groups didn't appreciate what I brought to the team.
I also tried a couple of WSG's in the 20-29 bracket, at lvl 24, and ended up as mush under the feet of some tauren dude that didn't like me at all.. (Just wait till I hit 29.. )

I guess it depends a lot on who you meet and who you go in with.. Meeting a premade as a multiboxer sucks, as they will most likely just aim for your lead, take it out, and while you change stuff around to control the group from a different window, they'll be done hammering on them as well..

I like to spend some time in WSG before 40 so that when i hit 40 i can get the epic bracers. There sick for the lvl.

I'd recommed not getting any gear with the honor, but save up some marks they will come in very handy later. Mostly WSG marks. They can be a real pain to get at 70. Everyother BG is MB friendly IMO.

I've been in some matches that where like an hour long and we still lost. They should make the flag penalty happen a lot quicker. The ones that i love are the ones that as soon as i enter we lost 2 flags and they have our flag for the last cap... I say yay easy mark for 1 min worth of work.

I have been running AV when I first get on to get water and rack up some honor. I have yet to understand why people hate AV so much.

I always hated AV because if you get into the wrong game you could be there for hours.

Heh. I hate twinks, so I could go into WSG with my toons at level 10 just to mess around with them.

And to see how I would do. Frigging hunters.

Hmmmm... maybe I'll just wait for the upper level BG's and avoid the lower levels altogether.

Everyother BG is MB friendly IMO.I think I'm going to give this a try and do a little farming before hand to get my groups geared up for the 70 BG's.

And to see how I would do. Frigging hunters.It's almost as if you have to be twinked out to even play in the 10-19 bracket these days. Any time I brought a none twinked toon, I'd be dead 2-3 hits.
