I started multiboxing 3 shamans last week and they are sitting at 21 . I started 3 Orc shaman but i do not have other horde character cause i was playing alliance and i figured that horde was better for pvp .

Now that i see a lot of videos about 5 shamans doing 5 mans i really want to do that .

The thing is that on the alliance side , i have 5 lvl 70 on my main account : Geared Prot Pally , Geared Mage , Geared Shadow Priest , Warrior and Rogue. and also a lvl 63 shaman

Should i start new shamans and powerlevel in instances with my mains ? What would be the fastest ? Should i continue my horde ?

Thanks a lot i really appreciate any comments .... I dont know if it would be fast with my pally or mage power leveling the other 4 shamans then at level 63 level with my other shaman...

Also should i buy 2 new accounts to 5 box ? is it worth it ?

whatever is fun for you. I can't tell you that. I wouldn't split my own assets between different servers or factions though, but that's just me. I also like leveling in instances when 5 boxing. Seems like a waste not to.

If you can afford it and have the computer hardware 5 box - or in your case 4 box and boost with one of your 70's as a fifth.

When you get them to 63 you could join up with your existing shaman and start working your way through instances as a fivesome.

The way I see it you have the resources on the alliance side so use your high levels to boost instances, complete hard group quests and as a money provider to help level professions/ gear.

You could keep your horde shamans for a pure levelling experiment. No cash handouts, no boosting and see how the levelling goes 1 versus the other.

5 boxing seems very worth it - despite being able to afford it, I'm only 3 boxing at the moment. I have a number of 70's and high level characters and will go 5 box when I get into outlands I guess. Until then there's no point in me giving more money to blizzard (although I do find myself thinking - if only I had 4 accounts I could do this, if only I had 5 accounts I could do this.....)

I have 5 accounts, but i dont have a 5th shaman, i can use every other class but to make a group. Its actually annoying me as i would go and do heroics with 5 shaman but i wouldnt consider pvp with 4 as i prefer to get a guildy to come heal my ass.

There is no "real" bonus to playing a horde shaman over an alliance one imo.

alright .. im getting crazy .. i just bought 2 more wow accounts .. im sitting at 5 right now and im gonna do Alliance Shamans ...

im gonna boost them with my mage / prot paladin and continue to lvl my shaman when all the other ones are gonna be 63.

That way ill have a 5 shaman team for pvp / instance and i can replace one shaman for prot paladin in case i need it for instances :P

Lets try this now !!!!

I don't see anything wrong with investing into something you enjoy. Pretty much all hobbies require money.

Good luck

Exactly.. I can think of a whole list of hobbies I have or have had in the past that cost well over $75/mo.

I already had a 70 pally and 70 shaman but I chose to start new with 1 pally and 4 shaman for the sake that I had never done it before and figured it would be easier to learn as a I went and slowly add spells/abilities instead of figuring it out at a higher level when your spell book is packed. I don't think I could bare powerleveling either, it would drive me nuts. In the end, it all comes down to what you are comfortable with.
