Ok im sitting at lvl 70 and figured why not give it a try and instance farm to lvl since i am rested. 5 shaman group and trying to figure out if theres an instance where i can just farm and make good money off and also level faster then questing. If you have any ideas please let me know thanx.
With 5 shaman at 70 theres not really an instance that will net you anywhere near the XP and Gold per hour that questing will, sorry. Even with a tank running something like UK/Nexus over and over again will be slower than questing and also way way way worse money.
questing makes big bucks. if you're capped at 70 (aka, without WotLK), then isle of qq would help greatly.
also, i've found running underbog is great to DE drops and pick sanguine hibiscus. those are for sporegar rep, and is going in my server for quite a lot. they're super easy to get, though its super duper easy to get if you're a rogue or druid. thats the only instance with anything of value that you can farm i think.
don't forget the armaments! I sold 78 of those a week or so ago for 221GQuote:

i think the armaments only drop in normal steamvaults and heroic of all three. so if you do underbog in heroic, this would be good. for armaments though, i'd do steamvaults normal, as only half of underbog consist of nagas.Quote:

UK or Old Kingdom were good for me -but only with rested xp. Otherwise it's too slow.
And quests aren't always faster in the xp- there's a lot of collection quests and chains that are very difficult to multibox. Sometimes grinding out rested xp to the next level is the best way to go.
With WOTLK, you will be seriously hurting if you don't quest to open up certain factions / areas.
Much of the content in Storm peaks and Icecrown is completely phased and requires doing a lot of the available quests just to open them up.
I would also tend to agree that the questing exp and the money for 5 toons is probably going to be better than any instance you care to run.
Yes, there are some annoying collection quests, but there are also a lot of "do it on one, and all get credit" quests so that in the end, the money and exp make it worth it to grind through the collections.
Just my $0.02
Now that enchanting mats have hit rock bottom I can guarantee you that questing is more money than instance runs. Lately all I do is farm 4 instances and then go to my alts and I really dont have much cash to show for it. Before I was questing on my mains and wow would they come out a lot richer after each day of full questing.
edit: not to mention you run into more gathering stuff, I see maybe one flower and 2 mines per instance.
Heh, enchanting mats are the same price on my server as they were the day after wotlk came out. its like 5g for a single infinite dust :\
Yea, the shards are almost worthless though, I imagine with the new mat requirements in 3.0.8 that will change though.
