Hey, I have recently finished boosting my alt from 1-60, in about 1 day and a couple hours played time if you wanna know (brag):p
with the beloved protection paladin.
now i'm wondering which instances is best to boost in from 60-70? it felt like ramps and bf had too many stunners and pushback mobs which makes me loose aggro sometimes, so I feel kinda lost here
and I don't wanna do the same old quests in outland again, or do I have to?

60-70 is fun, do it the normal way, the quests and whatnot are awesome item rewards to help gear out your character.

alright I guess so, but there must be an somewhat effective alternative for instance boosting, does anyone know?

Do you care about the Outlands reputations? If so then run the instances to Honored then do the quests. It's fast, and you'll end up hitting 70 somewhere in Terokkar.
Do you want epic flyers? The best way to get gold is either dailies or normal quests. So you want to try and save as many as you can. Note that quests that req 62 or lower don't give much gold at 70 so you can do all of HFP and Zangar without affecting your income at 70.
There was no reason to add your brag as it means nothing without visual proof, which of course is easily photo shopped and still invalid. Aside from that, I to just finished "boosting" with a prot paladin, and even being A+ game efficient you are over a day by 40. That is with Stocks @ 2 pulls, SM arm @ 2, Cathedral @ 3 hitting reset limits. Unless you happened to stumble across another exploit like which was fixed a month or so ago.
So, now that I've called BS. Hit Slave pens, tank with your pally, pay a geared 70 warlock/mage, minimal penalty. Tank, they nuke, bring free level 60 healers, not too much frustration in SP.

:love: A lovely impression to make with your first post! :love:
i started with clearing hellfire pen instsances
then mana tombs to level 68
then cleared sethick to 70
only reason i was able to was because my main prior to 4 boxing shamans was a level 70 warrior in good pve gear..... not sure what your working with

:love: A lovely impression to make with your first post! :love:Oh? And what impression might that be? A sane, skeptical person calling shenanigans on someone clearly inflating their ego over the intrawebz? I guess if asking for proof is taking negatively from you -- then I'm glad I know your type right off the bat. Other than that, I answered his core question to the best of my ability, so I have a finger for you and it isn't my pointer.

I did it for the first time with my warlock recently and it was about 1 day 10 hours - which includes all the first time multiboxing setup, learning all the instances, tons of wipes and trial and error, testing rfc, wc, and deadmines before settling on sfk, etc. My lock was doing about 14 minute runs of cathedral. I think a prot paladin can do it in about 7 minutes. To avoid lockout you switch between cathedral and armory.

Be Nice :) (Includes you wilbur :P) be nice to each other and respect the authority of Moderators and specialist staff.
Play nice.
You can answer a question nicely, or not at all.
I love the wilbur addition to the guidelines ;)
agreed.. lets be polite here.

Back on topic...
You could just wait til WotLK comes out, and solo level your booster to 80, then boost the 60s in outland stuff to 70. I bet a lvl 80 tank could solo most of outland 5 mans...
I just got my team to 58, and I will be doing quests until all I have left are 63+ (for 70 gold farming later) and going the rest of the way to 70 in instances. The gear is better, no worries about gankage (PvP server) good user experience for heroics (my goal anyway) and good experience for 10 mans. I'm still pondering 10 boxing, but it's so time consuming to level 1 team to 70, leveling another might kill me!
Wow, I didn't realize this community was full of extremely sensitive people. Did you even bother to read my first post? I just finished reading it about eighteen times for my own clarification and there was nothing out of the realm of nice. My response post to someone saying "Nice impression for a first post" was in its rightful place, someone accusing me of being a "bad" person for that post, completely justifiable response on my part.
I don't want to derail the topic, obviously you all have each others back on this sensitivity issue -- but read my first post.
Seriously
"There is no reason to add your brag" <= um, does this make you cry, is this hurtful...he called it a brag, I said there was no reason to add it. I then justified my statement with my personal experience of boosting and went right into addressing the topic. So why take the time to respond to my reply signing that it is somehow mean spirited and a bad impression, when the individual clearly didn't care enough to answer the OPs question. And thus onto my response, he ignored the OP just to tell me how bad my first impression was...thus, people like that deserve only one finger.
Now help the OP instead of riding your high moral horse.

No one gives a damn wether or not the OP was exaggerating on his estimated /played to 60 time. It's not even and unbelieveable feat as others have already done it which is besides the point.
What we do care about is people coming on the forums and flaming people for inconsequential details. You seem to be way to use to how trashy forums, such as the official wow forums, operate. In the WoW forums people will flame people over the stupidest shit such as areana ratings or armory gear or spelling/grammar or w/e other dumbass thing people choose to flame each other over.
Do we have each others back? In a sense yes that we are a community. No there is no cliques here but yes the community as a whole does not accept this type of behavior.
You have posted some legit questions in another thread and so I know that you are not a troll and it's not like the community will hold a grudge against you but yes your first post and the couple after it were quite derrogatory and insulting. If you can't see that, then reread it again another 18 times. In the future don't sweat the small stuff and post in a manner that's all constructive, not half a flame right off the bat then trying to throw in a few comments to the original idea of the thread.

If you want to get to 70 quickly, then I think you'll have to put up with questing. Yeah, getting 60x Timber Worg Tails is a pain in the ass (seriously don't know why I'm still doing collection quests), but man you fly through the killing and group quests. I had issues with ramps and bf initially at 60. I ended up going back at 62 and it was much easier. With rested bonus, the xp wasn't too bad. The key for me is that it helped me be a better m-boxer. I didnt' have a lot of experiences with the team doing instances on their own before going to Outland (well, I did spend 4 hours in BRD once.....once).
So, my plan is to mix questing and instancesing (that's hard to pronounce for a made up word), and doing each instance until I can get the strats down pat. Oh, do instances when you have double xp.

LOL, I re-read your post too (only 12 times though). Let me paraphrase: "Don't brag, because I don't like it. I need visual proof. No, wait that won't be good enough so screw it I've decided you're full of crap. But here's a tip anyways." It's understandable how people are reacting to your post, I think.
Hahahaha.
Alright, I'm going to redo my first post without an edit in a community friendly way.
Hey man! Wow, grats on getting to 60 so fast that is just amazing, YOU TIED ATHENE's RECORD with the method that was banned! You should help us out so we can be as awesome as you, woot woot. Back to the point, I think the fastest way to 70 would be to DO WHAT YOU ARE CURRENTLY DOING!, the xp obviously will just go down in halfs to about 65, so keep that up and you should be to 65 in a half a day or so!
KEEP IT UP!

My thought exactly, that does not sound too friendly, we all here to help one another, no need to be upset just because they brag about their time. Oh FYI PP03, every finger you point at people, 3 more are pointing at you. Let's be supportive here.

I actually didn't do much questing from 60-70. I completed about 75% of the HFP quests at 58-60 then farmed hunter gear in Ramps for much of 61-62 (mail legs, leather belt). At that point I quested in Zangarmarsh and Terokkar, but was back in Slave Pens and Underbog through much of 64. I did take some time to do most of Nagrand from 64-65, but then stayed in Auchindoun (LOTS of Mana Tombs, Auch Crypts) until 68. Then it was a few Old Hillsbrad runs followed by Sethekk Halls, and now I'm 69 and will prolly grind rep from Old Hillsbrad and Auch Crypts until 70.
Essentially, I let my gear needs/wants drive my questing after 60. It was just too painful to do the collext X quests otherwise. As always, ymmv, but it's possible to stick to instances if you can stomach a little repetition.

Not picking sides, but there is a better way to call someone
out in a fib without causing a fuss.
Here’s an example.
Wow, that’s quite a feat to go from this level to that in
that amount of time. In fact, I just did this and didn’t get the results you
did. What did you do differently?
Depending on the answer your pretty much going to know the real
truth based of his answer. Now you have it and can move on.
All said in done; let’s say this man is lying about what he accomplished.
What exactly would you gain by proving him wrong? Granted we have principles
and none of us like to be lied too. But judging from the provided answer many
of us would come to the same conclusion you did.
No one gets upset, everyone wins. Not such a bad thing,
right? Drama free 4tw

Good thing this isn't the Wow forums. I might have ended up calling someone a prick. Anyways, wish I could level even half that fast. Holy crap!
At least I answered the OP's question.
It goes to show you, it really does.
I don't care how many fingers people have pointed at me for mine, it was no more than an illusion directed in a defensive manner to the post immediately after mine. If you are too blind to see that and somehow attach anything to my posts beyond the comment being defensive; you are mindless and feeding off previous posts to up your post count.
I'm sorry for being born a rational person that doesn't take statements for automatic truth nor answer questions laced with falsehoods directly without first attempting to validate them in their context.
The fact that so many of you are turning this into some sort of issue is beyond my comprehension. Pretend for a moment I never defended myself from the "nice first impression comment", this would not have devolved in such a way. I find it ironic that no one tells this individual to take it to PM's, or why the personal attacks. At least from my post the OP can clearly say "I did this from x-y, this from z-x, and here is how". I would have simply said, I stand corrected, thanks for the information and everybody would learn something.
Go ahead and keep the forums the way you do, I used no l33t speak, I defended myself against a post that clearly ignored the OP for a person gouge; and further devolved myself as I saw more and more bashes based on my retaliation post. If people can utter the words ban for a thread that is not insensitive in terms of race, vulgarity, religion, and it is supported and condoned from the community. I would be more than proud to be banned, go right ahead.

What about this scenario? Sorry I was a prick. Was having a bad day. Then everyone moves on. You have a really weird way of dealing with things. You think it is everyone else that is 'out of step'. Just like my old boot camp days back in the 80s. We had a guy in the company that was always out of step and he would get yelled at. He told the CC that the company was out of step. And what sucks is he truly believed it. You sir are out of step.
Knobley
07-22-2008, 10:23 AM
.... still waiting for psypuls to tell how he did it.
What about this scenario? Sorry I was a prick.
I understand where you are coming from, but I'm sorry, I've looked at this from all logical perspectives.
In this very instance, I am willing to play all cards that the group is out of 'step'.
Why the heck are you bringing bad days into things? It has nothing to do with a bad day...why would I say I'm sorry I was wrong, what was I wrong for doing? That is my point.
So, you want me to apologize for what exactly? For saying I don't believe you to the OP -- is that what you want?
For using the metaphor of the middle finger to someone that crudely assumed my character from asking for proof and ignored the ops question?
Really, I don't have a weird way of dealing with things. I just find it a bit ironic how everyone is jumping together, getting on my for simply saying there is no way he did what he stated, and by asking for proof that is a verbal commitment to it being my opinion and not fact -- until I have proof.
All I'm doing now is amusing myself. Referring back to my last post, if being out of step means that I can ask for proof in statements without being flamed to hell for being mean, by god I'm out of step and I LIKE IT.
.... still waiting for psypuls to tell how he did it.Woah, lock the doors, I hope you aren't afraid of pitch forks.
I think I want to marry you (not really) a logical person on these boards, woot!
Hahahaha.

Personally, I don't see how calling someone out on an exaggeration is overtly rude. Many of us come to this forum to share ideas and experiences; those are tainted when mixed with fiction, so I understand PP03's mindset when he made his original reply. I read it just after he made it, didn't find it commentable. Nor did I find the criticisms of him, or his rebuttals that commentable. The drama isn't why i come to this board, so I ignored it. However, his original reply had content. He pointed out that the guy was obviously exagerating. His language may not have been as padded as others would like, but I don't see how flaming someone to call them a flamer is defensible in any way.
Lets remember we are here to share ideas, experience and knowledge, not fiction, not drama. Try to overlook when people use harsher language than you would have.
PP03: Obviously, you feel ambused somewhat. The whole situation got blown out of proportion, there are some strong personalities on this board that get cranky sometimes; that's life.
That being said; I followed Suvega's tips and did the HFP, Zang and some Terrokar quests and then ground to 70. However, rather than doing instance grinding, I ground for Primals so that I'd have enough for epic crafting profession gear once I hit 70. I didn't win any speed records, but I'd have to grind the matts anyway, might as well get XP for it.

This is actually kinda key. For me at least I was starting to burn out during the last stretch to 70. Finding something you can grind for may help. I chose to grind out as many enchanting recipies as I could (I got really really good at speed running crypts) and went from 68.5->70 just getting those. I had motivation to keep going because I knew if I wanted to grind these at 70 it would be a real waste of time (do to not getting xp or even rep for most things).

Yeah, I know a lot of boards have strong personalities, I've been partial to forums for many years ;)
I'm just going to address one more issue towards the drama and let it go, I feel I've defended myself enough and am glad to see a few people defending me.
I'm glad Blaster put me on ignore, it goes to show that the moral soldiers are always the first to play childish games. He couldn't even be a man and just hit the button, instead he has to make it a community issue. That is why THERE IS DRAMA, people like him and the first reply to my post. None of what they typed couldn't have been discussed in personal messages, yet they bring on the drama forcing me to publicly defend myself and then say I go on about things weird. Well no crap, you can't make your stupid assurtions in personal messages and expect to let it just stand on the forums and not have me reply to it? Like I'm just going to sit here and let blaster say that I'm wrong like he is the final word on the matter? Hell no. Good ridance to bad rubbish, I hope he is never talking to or at me in another thread, I'll always refrence his childish /ignore post.
That aside, I'm not replying to this thread anymore, make all the accusations you want, my defense is relegated to PMs.
Bumping this thread because I have the same question.
I plan to quest @ 70 and focus on daily quests prerequisites. For now I need a grinding instance for 60-70 that has a similar number of mobs as Strat or SM Cath.
It will be great if its in list format like
60-62 Ramparts
62-...etc
Thanks

ThanksGoGo thread necro!
I just hit 67.67.68.68 with my 4 shaman yesterday. Boosting with my reasonably well geared prot pally.
I did, some quests in Hellfire, just to get some filler gear (they were RAF and gifted to 60/61 best gear was from SM cath - still had starter zone boots etc). Mostly the chains that lead to the instance quests or group quests. I ran Ramparts about 5 times until I got tired of it. I did Colossal Menace for the first easy totem item. Then I realized I needed to do the totem quests to get all the spells (two gifted shammies did not have fire water or air - water sucks BTW if you ahve never played a shammie). After that did a couple more quests and did Bloodfurnace. Too slow so only went once. Went to Zanger, did Boglash and the stinger couple chains. Did SP and UB for the quests. Then stayed in SP for a while. I got all my guys the mace from the 2nd boss. Stopped at him and reset. I could do it in under 20 minutes. Very easy for me to mass pull. Stopped that at 65 and 66. Went and did CoT Durnhold. Reset Thrall the first time because I screwed up a a LoS pull on a mage and he sheeped me. That was bad. Finished instance no problem. Went to Black Morass. That was exciting. Big test of my skills as a MB'er. They are not there yet. But that said I did not wipe or even have one death. But was overwhelmed by 3 portal after second boss. I thought I solo'd it on the pally before but thinking about it I might have duo'd it with an 80 Druid (not played by me). So not too bad for 2x65 and 2x66 Shammies with under 500 SP. I did pull all the trash in one pull (non leashed mobs and magma totems make for a very exciting combo).After that I went to Nagrand. The Nessingwary quests are just too easy to skip. Also did ring of blood and replaced the mace I got from SP. I did the Altrius chain and all the Auch instances once for the quests (in sethink be more careful then I was getting them out of LoS of the last boss). Couple ok quest rewards no drops in there worth farming. That got all 4 to 67 which is what you need to quest in Netherstorm. My main will be loremaster one day and had zero quests done in Netherstorm so now she is questing too (made over 150g and 20 stacks of cloth for bags in under 30 quests - just on the Pally). The bigger guys dinged 68 last night and the little ones should hit that tonight. Then straight to UK to see how I do in there since that is the point after all. Then quest too much cash to pass up.
So it isn't a step by step guide but what I have done in a few hours a day only on the weekends the last couple of weeks.
So if I were to step by step, just to zerg to 70 with maybe a little DPS and/or healing I would do:
60-65 Slave Pens with 1 Underbog for the quest you get in there.
65-66 Nessingwary and Ring of Blood.
66-68 Your favorite Auchendon instance I guess or run through each once for the quests. Crypts is easy but there is a Mob that MCs. Sethik has a mob that drops an MC totem too. Mana tombs is not bad really. I just don't like that place.
or
66-68 CoT Durnhold for the quests. If you can handle it try Black Morass for fun. At least turn in the quest inside for a free 3k or whatever.
68 Your favorite side of Northrend (I would pick HF first just to get a quick path to UK).

I did all my instance grinding in BC with Underbog to the first boss. Rinse and repeat. You will get rich off the sanguine Hibiscus. By level 69 it took about 15min to clear for 6% of level with rested.

Well as many already know i lost my job canceled 4 accounts and guess what lol. I got three interviews this week go figure. Well newayz im hoping cause i rerolled on a friends server same as period and prepared to get 80 on my dk this week. Then once i know for sure i got the job imma reactivate my other 4 acounts and boost some lowbies. I am wondering how long do u think it will take a lvl 80 dk to run 3 mages and a resto shaman to get to 80 doing nothing but instances. You all might be sayig why mages. Well i got the how from dk then mana healing totem from shaman and 3 pyro blast mages. If that doesnt work i will change one mage to elemental shaman for the tow totem. So for all purposes you think i can break 3 days to get to 60 on those 4. Since i believe once i get into hellfire and bf ill be able to fly with the leveling shorter instances.

Great thread necro right there! Wonder what happened to pp03? Seems he grabbed his toys and ran off!
Suicides, gz on the job interviews mate! you should be able to smash 3 days to 60 no problem. As far as instancing from 60-80, well I'm still in the process of levelling 4 DK's with my bro using his (same level) shammy to heal. Found 60-70 flew by.
I'd recommend going to Northrend at 68 though and doing the starting area's as I found gearing up with Northrend greens was much more beneficial than going straight into the first instances undergeared.

For myself after 4.5 years of Azeroth content and about 15-20 various leveled toons ran through it... I'd pay MONEY to skip it.
