i cant make up my mind on pally and 4 dks or 5 pallys
First team will be the classic Paly and 4 Shamans for me, played all the classes in beta and they are still my favorite PvE/instance group. Just so hard to beat the utility, survivability and ease of boxability of that combo. I will also be leveling my five gnome monks, ill alternate to keep it interesting.
Not sure which I'll do first, as I like all three:
- 5x Feral Druids
- 1x Holy Paladin & 4x Frost DK's (experimenting with Unholy too)
- 5x Holy/Ret Paladins
I've always liked 5x Shaman.
When I was really into PvE (mostly heroics), my team was Prot Paladin, 2x Elem. Shaman, 1x Elem./Resto Shaman, and 1x Demo Warlock (my raid toon).
My current version of this team is 1x Guardian/Boomkin Druid & 4x Elemental Shaman.
I like my Warlock team (1x Priest, 4x Warlocks); they're Cenarius Horde.
The Pally/DK's and Pally teams have been transferred to PvP Mag/Horde, and are in the The Zerg.
The others are still on my original server, PvE Cenarius/Ally.
I'm tempted to make the leap to 10-boxing, having gone as far as picking up the Classic-Cataclysm accounts... when they were $20 each.
That will be another set of 5x RAF accounts.
I upgraded my system over the summer (Sabertooth X79, i7 3930, GTX 680 4GB, 32GB Ram, 2x OCZ 3's in Raid0), both in anticipation of higher game requirements and knowing 10-boxing is a temptation.
I'm leaning towards merging the teams... 6x Paladins, 4x DK's... in some combination of Holy/Ret and 3x Frost/Unholy with 1x Blood.
10x Ferals will be fun too.
I'm not sure either, I'm going to level my Rogue first together with my girlfriend, after that I think I'll go with ret pally + 2x elemenal shammy so I can do scenarios. Then I have to decide wether to go on with my disc prist + 4x DK or to level my lowbie 4x ret pallies.
At any rate, I'll and up with at least one pally, because I'd like to run 1x ret + 2x DK or 3x ret for scenarios, and probably 1x holy + 4x DK or 1x holy + 4x ret for BGs.
5x SPriest
Have none of you been playing? just waiting for MOP? trying to wrap my head around why people are talking about levelling new groups, 5.0.4 introduced a lot of the changes already.
I think people are talking about who they are going to level to 90 first, I'm sure most people already have their teams at 85.
Aha, yes that makes sense! :) since I moved servers, I have only got the one transferred toon @ 85. So levelling to 90 isn't on the cards just yet!
First im doing 4 elemental shamans, then gear em up in full honor gear. Then 4 x rets, then 4 x hunters, and DKs Im saving for another day :)
I am not really setting goals for the first two weeks but rather the first month.
I plan to have 4 groups leveled to 90 and geared for arena on Tich.
Warriors, shaman, dks, rets then maybe monks or hunters (I'm not sold on monks being boxable with their mobility requirements in 3's and 5's). Not sure what order... deciding today.
Throughout the second month I'll be leveling another 3 groups on Magtheridon or Mannoroth Horde with RAF to 80 at least and granting a 4th and 5th to level throughout the season to play on ruin at some point. (need to have this done within two months from now, so maybe 1 group every 2 weeks or so)
I'm taking this season to branch off from dks before ultimately going back to them (hate to say it but i love the class in general even single boxing)
I plan to level 3x Monk Pandaren to start. It was a tough call to not level up my 85s first but I decided to just do the whole MoP experience from start to finish. Ill get my other toons eventually anyways :) There is just so much to do in MoP that I am just going to take my time and have some fun.
Since I do not get my boxes until tomorrow afternoon, I'm going to quest and gather in the starting zone with my druid. I don't want to get my paly ahead of my shamies.
I won't be lvling, I'll be ganking the people racing to realm first lvl 90 monk
exactly :) me and derek are gonna both be out ganking starting at midnight! hopefully others in guild will join if they arent busy tryin to level. gonna wait a day or two before start actual leveling characters but gonna level in this order probably, 15 boomys, 15 spriests, 10 hunters, 10 mages, 10 locks, 10 shams, 5x dk, 5x pally. Gonna take forever :( hopefully it ends up being not too long to level especially since aoe looting will be nice.Quote:

On another note, that experience bar is moving sooooo slowly.
That bummed me out.. why did they get rid of crusader aura anyway? BAH!!Quote:

Overall though love the atmosphere and the look of pandaria.Quote:

It took me about 12 hours to get to level 86 with 3 shamans, lock and a mage. The collection quests after about 35-40% in are HORRIBLE. They made some crappy changes for boxers for sure. In the past, collections quests off the ground or random drops off mobs were the worse. Now, MANY quests that require you to put outfires, rescue people, free people from trapped webs, speaking to them, do NOT give credit on the slaves. you have to do the same clicking 40-50 times, on quests back to back like 5-6 times in a row. It is horrible and a major drain. Very sad.
I do not enjoy that stuff either, but I always look at it as the price we have to pay for being able to have a full team of max level toons before non boxers and all the benefits that go with that. So i just suck it up and do it.Quote:

Rets
Warriors
Dks or shaman

Rets are looking stronger than i had anticipated, but not sure about their success in 5's.
one last level to go @shamans
Good luck, this time don't win trade to rank 1 like a scrub :PQuote:

Shaman won't suck in pvp. Then again at 85 my dks just roflstomped over 10 boxing shaman even with only 4 dks and a healer :\Quote:

Queue dodging is fine, if you are only queueing into a counter comp (dk/dk/ret vs Spriest/Rogue/Hpal for an example)... stop. If they are on your server make sure they are in a game before queueing.Quote:

Since this thread has derailed into a flaming ball of death... let's just keep the fire burning...
I have always been curious as to how people let themselves get DDOS'd? How does the opposing team magically obtain your IP? And even after you've diagnosed your high latency or disconnects with the fact that you're being DDOS'd (or if you're paranoid)... Why not just change your IP?Quote:

So if you change your IP and they are still somehow in a conversation you are currently in (you will still be in the conversation when you log back in, so you have to immediately leave conversation and re-log with a new IP).
My solution to it is just purchase a socks 5 proxy from NYC for 5$ a month and use that for skype only so it doesn't effect my actual internet.
@ turning into a flaming ball of death: I was mostly just being a dick and not trying to incite more hate towards him because it's already known hes a scumbag lol.

Pro Tip: Stop talking to your enemies on a public chat channel where your IP is being shown plain as day.Quote:

@poetry
Explain how I am either the pot or the kettle, I'm a dick but not a cheater. Dick =/= Scumbag in my book. But if you think I'm a scumbag then thats okay. Not like I have anything to prove arena wise here anymore.
Not like you had to in the first placeQuote:
