60 in half the time it took him to get to 22 which isn't even extremely fast for RAF. I don't care how you do the math questing is faster ;)

With all the contempt he receives for not following the herd, Sam's got to have the thickest skin in the universe. I might've stomped out long ago, slamming the door behind me for emphasis and possibly even voicing an "I'll show them! I'll show them ALL!"

Good to see you again.
This will be the third online game we have crossed paths in.
We go all the way back to Age of Empires, then we played on Sullon Zek ( I remember attacking you with my 3-boxed Mages and their pets in Northern Ro - before you even starting boxing on the Sullon Zek beta realm)
I have 10 boxxed wow pretty extensively and my specialty is leveling up toons quickly. ( I have 2 80's atm - including a realm first DK - 10 more 70+ plus toons and another 15 or so 60 plus toons.)
I understand you want to learn to play all your toons at once - but there will be time for that once you get them leveled. Using your current plan you're going to be 10x slower and much more painful than it needs to be.
Here is how you should level your team up.
-1st don't activate all the RaF's at once.
-Having a 70 Prot pally to pull your others teams up should be the priority. So start just by Rafing the pally and one other toon of your choice together.
-Quest these 2 toons together until you get to 60.
- Then just quest the pally the rest of the way till 70 by himself - (Within a few days played you will now have a 70 Prot pally.) I'd get him some decent prot gear - prolly just buying Northrend blue/green boe's would be sufficient.
- Next quest in groups of 4 your remaining toons up from 1-15 in the Blood elf starting area.
- Now use your Pally to boost your teams of 4 thru instances all the till 60
15-20 SFK
20-43 SM
43-45 (worst part here I'd prolly do ZF but its not easy with just a prot pally boosting)
45-58 Strat
58-60 Ramps
Each team of 4 will prolly take you 2-3 played days to get you to 60 each. With 24 more toons to get to 60 that means 18 played days or so which is doable before your RaF time runs out. Using your method your Raf's are going to run out way before you begin to even sniff 60 - and I cant even imagine trying to level 24 toons with no RaF bonus to 60.
Once you get to 60 you can start to really take advantage of rested exp and prolly just quest your groups one at a time thru each of the zones in Outland. One group does Hellfire completely while all the others groups are getting rested. Then bring group 2 thru Hellfire completely etc..
Once you get to 68 or 70 I'd start the same cycle on the Northrend zones.
Good luck Sam - and trust me on this if you try and do all 26 at once you're prolly looking at 6-12 months before you hit 60 and it would be doubtful if you could get them to 80 before the next expansion hits.
Pacman23
Why all 25 toons at once?
I mean i can likley get a 5 man team to 60 in 1 day and 10 hours, maybe less if i dont slack to much..
Since i know were all the good quests etc are it should take you abit more..
Maybe 2-3 days played? Alot less after you done one or two teams!
Now you will be sitting with your 26 guys at level 60 within 15 days played
I dont realy see the point WHY you have to aoe grind when its just SO much slower.
One of the reason 3x xp is so fast is because you can skip ALL the grind quests in azeroth and just do kill quests wich is super fast with a 5 man team!
just look at it this way sam,
If you would have taken everyones advice that you have been given here, then in the 6 days /played time you have for your 26 toons to get to lvl 22 you could have levelled 3x5 toons to lvl 60 (average 2 days played time to 60) and granted another 7 toons up to 60 for free.
so in 8 days played all your toons would have been at lvl 60.
I know which way i would have chosen, and i'm sure Blizzard thanks you for the way you have chosen :P
Hey Pacman, nice to see someone from the Age of Empires days! Good times for sure. Man I can't even remember how it is to play with one computer anymore lol ...
Well we will see, respawn rates are important also for sure. Ya questing does seem overall faster but it sure is a real pain with 26 ...
All these 1-60 in a few days stuffs isn't counting getting professions, and seems to assume you start with unlimited gold oh and they DONT loot either, also I doubt defensive skills get maxed either, and although I lost 3 months in my first RAF, by far most of that time was offline. If you add in professions to 300 plus on all 5 (2 professions each), starting with zero gold and looting everything and having decent skills, no one is going from 1-60 with 3 days played.
Also I have lots of downtime when one guy is going to the AH or another guy is doing Blacksmithing everyone else is doing absolutly nothing so my days played will never be low.
I think its fair to say I got to level 26 in like 3 days of play time killing mobs, all the rest was doing other stuffs.
Its foolish to say it took me 90 days to get to level 26, when maybe 3 days of that was actually killing stuffs. Iv been busy in RL and Iv leared lua programing, macros of all kinds, UI set up and the like, and now all my computers are stable as well. You build a house by starting with a stong foundation and I am ready for Part 2!
Ya instance boosting also makes a lot of sense, we will see, Ill try my way first and if its not working as good as I hope its on to something else.
I really am loath to try any method that does not use all 26 of my firepower, those who play 5 or 10 dont level up one at a time for good reason and for the exact same reason someone who plays 25 might not be wise to level up 5 at a time.
We will see, I am looking forward to 25 nova totems with the new patch being non agro and if it works it works if not well ... on to something else.
Low level shaman have not every had aoe opportunities untill very recently ... of course when others leveled up their shaman teams aoe grinding was unwise, but times have changed, even the upcoming change of no threat for nova totems is a big big step up for aoe capabilities. Also aoe isnt a simple task eaither, in EQ for sure the smallest error is a complete wipe, I am sure WoW is simpler but its not a skill that everyone has. But ya lack of mobs is always going to be the holdup, but with 26 toons in one area mobs spawn a bit faster no matter where you are.
Except instead of doing research into what does and what does not work, you poured the foundation and then realized while it was setting up that you forgot to pour the forms. Or the fact that it was to rain that afternoon.Quote:

Now you have to shell out a bunch more to buy new accounts and then pay to transfer them all over.
I enjoy your optimism but I remain pessimistic that you will rocket to level 80 and own face in..... Wintergrasp and nowhere else. Ever heard of vehicles?
This is like watching a slow train wreck.
I continue to wait for Sam to show us anything that Prepared has not done.Quote:

Hell, a 10x level 70 boxer has 700 combined levels - Sam managed 25 times what? Level 26? That's only 650. And I know several level 70 10 boxers that are probably pushing 80 by now.
If he ever steps into wintergrasp it will be an instant win for the other team. A couple vehicles will be able to keep him down and the other team will have a tenacity stack of about 15, ouch!Quote:
