I'm very impressed. You are doing with 3 what I did with 5... With the dragon boss, are you DPSing him down before you start the event? That's the only way I can do it. Maybe jut running 3 makes it easier to micromanage movement... Good luck in future endeavors! If you go for a third team, try a lock or two :)
Allrights folks,
the past days i leveld another team as mentioned above:
Feraldruid ("tank"), Restodruid ("heal") and a BM-Hunter ("dps")
Its an awesome setup, i have no downtimes -> 2x innervate ftw,
at level 15 i bought some water for the healer - i'm now lvl 56 and i have still 56/60 from the lvl 15 water xD
The DPS is incredible high, leader of the pack + beastmaster = zomfg o.O! around ~450 dps
this screenshot was a lvl 51 fight against landslide in maraudon

Hmm, you're tempting me to try out a few hunters - I don't know why but I'd like to play hunters now ... and I'm talking about NOW! :D
Feral Druid as a tank, 3 huntards and maybe a healer - hmm hmm.
I never wanted to level again. :P
today i cleared Scholomance (full incl. the summoned boss + cellar)
so the team is now lvl 60, too!
this team is so much fun, HoTs are nais for multiboxing purposes and the BM Hunter is a no-brainer :D

Outstanding work so far with your teams. I didn't know it was even possible to 3 man the old instances so that is great you are able to run them.
You also take great pictures and I enjoy reading your updates. Good luck in outlands and have fun! :D
Love the pics. Any chance for a video? I'd love to see how u 3 man it!
I compared the Achievment section today, between the Holypriest and the Restodruid:

I played both chars approximately the same time
and i did the same instances - amazing isn't it?^^
maybe is should change the language of my wow clients to english :D
Sorry for hijacking your thread but a few more questions since you seem like you were fairly succesful...
How did you manage money?
What was your method for leveling? Instance grinding?
Did you only use gear from instances? Quests?
How long did it take you?
Which instances did you run?
Did you have diffuclties with any instances?
Any other tips and tricks with 3 man boxing? (Addons, Setup)
How do you think my computer will fair with 3 wows running....
2gigs of ram, Dual Core Intel 6600, 2.4GHz
8800 GTX, Vista 32 bit
(Note:I ran 2 wows at medium settings at around 40fps on main, and 30fps on others)
Again, sorry for 'hijacking' your thread but you did an excellent job of tripple boxing.
The Hi-Jacking thing is no problem ;)
Money wasn't a big deal, the Paladin got Skinning + Mining and the Mage Tailoring+Enchanting.
The Palamount @lvl30 was for free and the auctions of copper+tin+leather were so successfull, that i had
enough money all the time. Also the disenchanted items bring you alot of profit (Greater Nether Essence = 20g / Piece!)
I leveled both teams from 0-14 in the starting zones, after that i only grinded instances:
14-18 -> Ragefire
18-24 -> Shadowfang Keep
24-27 -> Black Fathom
27-30 -> Razorfen
30-40 -> Scarlet Monastry (started in graveyard and so on)
40-42 -> Razorfen Hills
42-47 -> Zul'Farrak
47-51 -> Maraudon
51-57 -> BRD (<3 that instance)
57-60 -> Strat & Scholo (imho scholo is a bit easier)
On the second team i also did WC and Uldaman (nice leather drops here)
Of course i grab all the quests for the instances, which required no PreQuests...
the gear i used was only tailored or from instance-quests and bossdrops, i did not waste money in the AH!
/played was about ~2Days when i dinged 60, realtime playtime was about 1+1/2 Week
I had no difficulties, 99% of the bosses are tank+spank.
Jandice Barov (Cellar Boss Scholo) is a bit nasty, due to the fact, that you loose her target, when she created the clones -> a macro helps /target Jandice Barov
Other Tips - not really
just get it started and you will see, that it is not so complicated as it seems ;)
Your computer should be fine, mine is a bit slower and i had no problems running 3 WoWs (1 @ high settings and 2@medium settings)!
Addons&Setup?
I used Jamba + Recount + xPerl + SCTD (added the fix, that it displays the whole damage of the group - very nice)
I hope i could help you, if you have other questions do let me know
(and sorry for the bad english :D)
No problem man, thats huge help! I can start soon i hope. Thanks again!
