I so wish I would of RAF these paladins I got going on. At lvl 52 and just hating life even though I'm powerleveling with my DK. I can only stomach an hour and maybe a little more of a session before I have to stop. At 58 I'm just going to level the normal way I think that'll be better.
This is just me venting but playing wow is only fun when multiboxing, and I need to box it up!
Welcome back (part3? lol).
Give AV leveling a try - my guildies seem to like it.
AV leveling is terribly slow until you hit 71+ bracket :(
i've heard they are fixing that next patch, we'll see.
I am actually enjoying levelling up my team normally...
Yes I have done it to at least level 50 at least 6 times... but I am enjoying getting away from the normal path I took with my other toons and I am doing a few areas that I havent done since my very first toon...
I may get into PvP stuff later on, but considering that this is an instance team I am building, I am not overly worried about pvp :)
Ya, at 58 I'm deleting my sorta geared tank DK and making a fresh one so I can level up through the normal process. Mindlessly running through LBRS aoe killing everything just makes me sleepy :(
Actually I was doing a level in 1:30h in the 60-69 bracket (might be because my rogues just own in AV capping dun baldar :p)Quote:

Now, the 70s bracket is a whole different story.....I think XP is still decent there.
I'm going to have to agree with you there Ellay, that powerleveling 4 toons is boring as hell. I think you made the right decision in restarting a DK to level up with your team.
Aye, my issue is that I am already thinking about end game/80/pvp before I have even thought of names.... I dont think I could lvl without raf. 60-80 is more than enough leveling for me. Call me raf spoiled.Quote:

Though I remember last year when my first raf ended I swore myself I would never ever redo 1-60 again as I was burned out getting a bunch of toon there - but as time passed; and the opportunity to reroll on a new server with other boxers for guild chat company and more (KJ) - it's fun again !
*: my first wow toon hit 60 about when BC came out so I never got to do stratholme fully before - there are a few more old world instance I want to visit - calling it wow tourism
Why would you delete the geared one?? Just make a new one, level them all together and then reintroduce the geared one back into group at 80.
I just started doing RaF again. I got in on the black friday deal and bought 4 vanilla wows @ 5 bucks each. i linked them to four of my main accounts so i have to level 2 teams until 60. I just finished my 1st half of teams to 61 (2 Pals & 2 rogues) and now working on second half. Once my second teams hits 60, i am ditching the vanilla accounts and going to just use the lvl 61's i have on my 4 main accounts.
Main a + Main b + vanilla a + vanilla b = team 1
Main c + Main d + vanilla c + vanilla d = team 2
@ 60 ditch the vanillas and only have main a + b + c + d
It was cheaper doing this than transferring. $20 total vs $20 per character.
Not sure how geared he means.
Anyway, welcome back Ellay, good to see you again :)
Made some pallies myself the other day, figured I'd try it too, but I think my main focus will still be to do pve with my multiclass team since they are so good at it :)
ooh shit, just saw Ellay's sig. Looks like he was on my old battlegroup. good thing i transferred to a new server!
Thanks :) I don't get to play as much as I used to, but that's why multiboxing is awesome. I'm just envisioning right now being able to log in and do any instance at 80. Even with 4 Shamans doing a heroic still required to find a tank.
Eeep. Just when you think you've gotten away, it pulls you back in.
I picked up 5 of the Black Friday $5 copies, but I haven't decided when to use them. I'll prolly level up my 70 pally who is collecting dust and use her to boost groups of four. The plan that uses the RaF accounts to level characters on the main accounts sounds good, I'll have to look into that so I don't have to deal with the 90 transfer block on new battle.net accounts.
Now all I need to do is decide what groups to level and what server. I'm in Florida now so all my pings are messed up ;(

Ellay are you seriously on Gorefiend Horde side? I've been boxing there for almost 2 years now lol. I moved my Retadins from Horde to Alliance for the honor grind but they're coming right back after another few pieces of gear.
F' leveling.
That is all.
That must be painful. I'm using RAF, for the 4th time now (once for my friends).... and I can barely do it. I don't ever get instance lockout anymore because I can't even get through 5 runs before I have to take a break for several hours... haha.Quote:

I never understood why you didn't level a tank :)Quote:

With a moderately geared Prot Paladin (mix of heroics, badges, ulduar 25 and ToC AH stuff), I boosted 3 teams for my roommate in there, 55-60 (RAF) in a day.
Just kind of ran along killing things, with him looting behind me.
At 60th, move to Underbog.
I only got into wow since TBC came out... so I missed a lot of high end instances and raids because as soon as I hit 60, I went straight to outlands... where I managed to miss a lot of the instance content there until I hit level 70.Quote:

ive done student amount of team boosting and leveling since classic and how i bare with it is, 1. good food, 2. a good collection of music 3. lots of coke colaQuote:

How is your Thero's team working out without a healer? (your signature says it is one pally, two mages and two warlocks)Quote:

The big problem I'm having is deciding on a server to start this new plague of alts on. Anyone reccomend some good servers in the Dallas datacenter? I get the best pings from there now that I'm in Florida and far from every decent server I've been on. A sick part of me is considering Cho'gall, but not sure if I really want to be alliance with that much imbalance.

Welcome back Aelli!
Your awesome
Hi souca; maybe ping times aren't that bad and you can join Kil'Jaden ?Quote:

I know it's not horrible as what some people deal with, but having just been in Orange County where I got pings of 17ms on those servers, it's forcing a change in my playstyle even with solo characters. Dallas is only marginally better at 120ms or so. My current internet is FIOS, and while it has good bandwidth, the latency is all over the place. Quartz has been telling me I range from 240ms to 1200ms within a one minute span on Scarlet Crusade. Considering I'm not downloading anything I'm guessing it's dependent on how much porn my neighbors are streaming. ;(Quote:

I have an 80 DK and a druid I could use, or a 74 pally I've been meaning to level as well. Aside from seeing some ICC raids, I really want to work on farming level 60 and 70 raids, esp now that I've heard BT has been 5 manned, although it wasn't boxed. I could always bring a 6th character to make it even easier ;) I need glaives and thunderfury for all that can weild them ;)

PS: I am about to re-organise my accounts so that all my current high level toons are spread out across my 5 accounts so that I can sort them out into a team for doing dailys and stuff like that. Just need to finish levelling up my rogue and warrior for that one :D
