Burnt out

Wow all ive been doing since 60-65 is running my 4 druids using my dk thru ramps and bf. Trying to get them all the same gear so i can have more damage and lasting in bgs. But man i got the concept of the click healing using isboxer and vuhdo and OMFG love it i can fudge up so easily and still manage to dps without stopping to think about who to heal lol. But the grind is getting old now. Ive gone thru ramps around 100 times seriously and have gotten 4 druids all renewl band and witching band and heart beeds for neck. My healers the only one that has pants and staff whew. But side note my boomkin duel specd feral for pvp tanking bal has all the dps gear out of there lol. Also in bf only got the spell gloves times 2 and chest so far. I dont know how much i can handle im hoping by 68 ill have them all the same gear from ramps and bf and onto mana tombs ub and sp to get some more gear. But hope the drop rates are a tad better lol. But meh after this my mage thats lvl 59 no gear no gold rafd lvls wewt is going thru his turn being run thru grr. The trials of being able to get free gear is time consuming. Anyone else done this to the point that after a cpl runs its time for off time.

Why not do some quests, it's faster anyway...

I got tired of Instance boosting quickly. It is just not fun. I am taking my time I will go back and forth between my different 5 boxers. I will boost to 58 and will quest and AV my way to 80 at a slow pace. No rush the game is never ending.

Why would you sit there and grind identical sets out of BC dungeons? Especially when there's *always* a better piece out of the next dungeon. You'd be better off just doing quests and getting the faction to just buy the blue PvP pieces from various city factions.

Seriously, what Khatovar said. Ramps over and over would kill any interest in the game for me. Break it up! Most of your gear will be replaced in the first couple levels of Wrath if all you do is Ramps and Mana Tombs, it's not great gear, like the end-game epics of BC, which will last you a while through Wrath.

Your priorities, if you're trying to get to Wrath and the upper levels of PvP, is exp, gold, and mats and professions. A JCer with a bankroll can replace any ring or neck piece you can get in BC dungeons, as soon as you hit Northrend, and a decently leveled enchanter can get you tons of spellpower. A tailor, leatherworker and blacksmith can get you starter PvP gear while you grind honor and marks and arena points, and starter weapons until you can get the blue weapons from Wrath quests - arena of anguish at 75, and Tirion's Gambit at 78, I think, in Icecrown - then craft titanium stuff to get you into Heroics for the good stuff.

With crafting you can get semi-decent gear, on all toons, in probably a few hours of grinding, and then as soon as they hit 70, get them the level 70 crafted epics or some BOE stuff off the AH, which will last a while in Wrath. I could see grinding Shadow Lab or higher for gear, but Ramps and BF and Mana Tombs? I don't see the point, to be honest. I'd rather DE the gear and sell the mats for my guild bank.

If you're planning to level to 80th don't even bother with gear until you're in your 70s. Our first group we leveled up was still wearing some 1st lvl gear when we instance boosted to 70th. Then we ran karazhan a few times (surprisingly good xp for being a 5 man group in a raid) to gear em up a bit before starting to run UK and the Nexus.

Are you ever planning on doing heroics? Because it is the same kind of grind. I get burned out on various things a lot and am glad I have such a diverse pool of toons. Sometimes I just level other toons, sometimes heroics, sometimes BGs.

BTW, gearing up with Outland blues really isn't worth it anymore. once you get to outland you can pretty much replace all that gear quickly with much improved NR greens.

I'm doing the same thing. I have made tons of emblems/stone keeper shards and champ seals that I have outfitted a lot of toons with full BoA items. And that was months of grinding. I have been having a blast playing low level toons in BGs. Some boxed, some solo.

Point is, there is plenty of grinding to do once you hit 80. Go out and do different dungeons, quest, PvP.. mix it up!

I have to agree with others.
If you don't mix it up, it will get old very quickly.

Yea i was pretty much doing cause my toons had like no gear but i thinkim just gonna instance boost them just to get outland dungeon master now.

Much easier to do that when level 80! :) I am thinking of going back and making sure I complete all the instances in old world and outland then finish up the northrend ones...one day.

Yea exactley one day lol. But meh imma eat now then get on and do ring of blood then fly thru the nesingways chain kill all the elites out there and be set to roll. Im hoping halfway thru 65 atm after all nagrand quests i could be almost 68 then i might do mech and stuff like that for 68 good gear and my dk can solo that np so with 3 boomchickens and a tree i can do it. Oh yea i got credited for my names on my server other then naming my healer after the wife which got brownie points wewt. My chickens names are chickngoboom, chickenwangs, and chickenfries lol.

Yup Northrend Quest rewards are far more better than the majority of blues in Outland. It so much easier to dress up your alts from quest rewards. Just use wowhead filter. For your setup, if you have lvl 80 DK, just spec your low level alts to healers and spec your DK to DPS . Check Instance by level and go to the highest lvl instance that your lowbies can enter. At lvl 60-70 all I did was Underbogs and it's way faster than any instance at that level. Plus I was able to level up my mining since there is always an Adamantite or Khorium node on each reset not to mention herbalsim nodes are everywhere. Another plus is Cenarion expedition reputation gains if you wanted their flying mount. At 70 I did all the quest that will reward my alts all the equips I needed for AV. By the time I got all of them dressed up they are already 71. Que in AV while questing is the most recommended way of leveling nowadays at 71-80. If you want to burn your rested XP then I find Old Kingdom trash to be the fastest. Just maximize the 12 minutes then go out and reset. It's averaging 250k-300k xp/hr

Just some notes on instance boosting. You can get in Steamvaults at 55 and UK at 65. With even bad dps you should have no problem in UK with an 80 as tank.

- Souca -

With flying at 60. I just ran a group of shaman from 60 to 62.5 in about 4 hours played time doing multibox friendly quests and clearing out ramparts and blood-furnace once to do their quests. Flying at 60 just makes outlands trivial and insane fast.

Wow so your saying to take my 4 druids with my 80 tank spec them all into heals and just run uk over n over again now u think ill lvl them faster that way to get 70.

Well my druids are about to ding 67 i took advice and started questing nagrand cause those quests are easy and lots of elite quests so good exp. So imma hit the hay now and before work when i wake i will get 67 so when i get home i can bust out 68 i hope lol. Then ill head to nr and run uk a cpl times and see how i do. Plus theres some good gear there plus get the quest blue item otherwise known as last rights on alliance quest but given to u on horde lol.

You should do the starter quests in Boring Tundra and Howling Bord to get the quick northrend gear before running uk. 4cerius. it's like jumping into black temple raid gear for doing 20 quests.

Since you'll be knocking out a big quest chain to get to Last Rites, might as well do the other quests in BT - with 5 they're trivial, especially if you skip the gathering ones. Make sure you do the baby Murlock ones, 5 toons running around with babies is cute overload. Do the starting zone quests in Howling to get the HK quests, there's some nice rewards for those, even though you may be too low to equip them.

The only advice I have for HK is make a /target Ice Tomb macro for all of your players. Makes the Prince easy.

You know i never thought of making a macro for the ice tomb but thanx a bunch. The only part that gets me really is the skeletons lol.

Well im just about to go to northrend finally doesnt help when u get this quest http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10252 boy does that blubber drop rate suck doesnt help the clefthoofs spawn sucks too lol. Meh once i get to northrend 70 will come so fast. Not sure if imma quest my locks as well since they are 65 or keep them pvping since i do want my mage 60 and priest 63 as well to 70. Lets see by xmas i have at least my 5 druids i want to 80 and my shamans and locks 2 mages and priest at least halfway to 80. Lots of work so little time.

What's the rush? The entire reason I started MBing is I can go at MY pace. :)

I'm enjoying my 80 team right now, as much as I enjoyed leveling them. Enjoy what you're doing, let go of the final goal for now, seriously, it's a good way to burn out if you're constantly frustrated.

Also, keep in mind, once you have 5 80s, you'll have 4 80's to power each of your lowbies through content a LOT faster, so you might have all your guys leveled faster than you think.

I'm also someone who likes to slow down and check things out, that's why I'm getting Loremaster on all of my 80's. There are some cool quests in Northrend that are very worth the effort, the obvious ones like Wrathgate and the Undercity ones everyone knows about, but there are a lot of other cools ones, like the one where you ride the harpoons in HF, or the ones in Dragonblight where you fight yourself, or the baby murlocks, or riding the logs in Grizzly Hills.

Plus...the gold is really, really good. :)
