Flame Leviathan is free loot if you have high ilvl gear. We 4 man it every week with alts in mostly ilvl 213 stuff, and even 2 manned it before in ilvl 232/226 gear. It should be trivial to 10 or even 5-box in 3.2 with Conquest badge gear out of 5 mans. Gear scaling gives you average ilvl-170 in % increase so if you're in full 226 gear that's x1.56 more damage, do the math and you'll see he dies in like 60-70s tops. Relentless PvP gear and the new badge/raid gear is ilvl 245 or 75% more damage!

Some guildmates tried the new 5 man on PTR and said it's a super easy fight (if really buggy right) so I have hopes that clearing it 5-box will be doable with the proper strategy.

Sorry to derail the topic a bit, but I found that whole banning incident quite interesting, and hadn't heard about it before.

Anyway.... gimmicky vehicle encounters suck! There. I made it on-topic again.

the answer is yes so why bother then.
top it off you have to solo box the jousting daily so again, why bother.

---

You don't have to solo box any of the Tourney dailies. The jousting quests, right in the fair grounds, can be done with your alts assisting the character doing the quest. It can take less then 30 minutes to do both the valiant and the champion version for all 5 toons. The kill quests, Battle Before The Citadel and At The Enemy's Gates can be done together. Just assist your focus or main, throw the javelin and charge. The Tourney valiant and champion quests work really well together and don't take long at all.

30 days later you have 4-5 titles, quite a bit of gold and access to enough mounts to get an albino drake. Honestly the jousting is really quite fun to box. I enjoy setting up the commanders right in front of my 4 clones and "one" shotting them with 4 charges!

---

Ok, I spent some quality time searching.. I thought I read a post awhile back with someone explaining HOW to box the jousting dailies ( the ones on the grounds ) I can easily box the one where you kill the commander and lieutenants. But even with the opponent targeted with all my alts..ONLY the one who speaks to the npc can attack him.
Can you please explain exactly how you box these? Ive tried everything I can think of. Spending less time with these quests would make this grind sooo much more enjoyable. Thanks in advance!

I am in the same boat. You cannot have all your toons challenging the same guy for the daily jousting quest. I have not tried to make my guys who are waiting attack with normal attacks. That would be a great time saver.

I did this for a while, except in my case I was 10-boxing so I could have 9 dudes normal attacking my one mounted guy's opponent. Still, doing this for all my guys got extremely tedious very quickly. I'm honestly not impressed with anything about the Argent Tournament - lots of non-boxable dailies, stupid vehicles that are basically a slower, dumber way to play, long distance travel for no reason.

Overall, I've come to the conclusion this is all a big time waste. The only things that interest me at all about it (and why I started it) are the chest heirloom items and maybe the white/orange hippogryph. Then Stealthy told me the chest heirloom items are purchasable with Emblems (woot!) so I decided to use my pre-patch 3.2 time on more exciting things in-game, as well as another time waster, at least on one of my teams: the Netherwing rep grind, which will net me cooler mounts in about the same time.

I hated the Tourney, then I accepted it, then I hated it again, then I figured out some macros and liked it for the first time ever! -- then I did it a few more times and meh, it's OK. The part that I still like is Battle Before the Citadel, where multiboxing Argent mounts really is pretty fun. I help out whomever happens to be whittling away at a commander, and take great joy in the mighty fivefold charge (which tends to leave me with five toons spread out over an in-game quarter-mile, but it's worth it). Chillmaw is OK, a 23g*5 daily within spitting distance of Shadow Hold, so no problem there. The duels take far more time than they're worth but I'm still doing them out of sheer bloody-minded OCD, I think, i.e. if I do *any Argent quests, I feel compelled to do *all Argent quests ...
