Hi ,
i started 3 boxing shamans and i got some questions ..
Is 3 boxing shamans any good ? What else should i go for 3 boxing then ?
If 3 boxing shamans is good , what race should i get ? ( i currently have 3 orc shaman lvl 6 and wondering if i picked the right choice. ) I dont want to regret my race choice when ill be like lvl 55 :P
Thanks a lot for the feedbacks
You wont regret your choice of 3 shaman. It's a great well rounded class. Perfect for multiboxing.
On horde you have a choice of troll, tauren or orcs. The orc is pretty good - bloodfury can be nice for extra dps (when you wont have to be healed). It has 15% stun resist which is good, but not something you notice.
Taurens have the war stomp racial, which is a great pvp ability. A nice extra interrupt.
Personally I think taurens look the best in end game gear... looking big and imposing, with orcs a close second.
Starting area wise I think the tauren area is the worst... .lots of running to get to quests but when you are out of there life is good.
If i was rolling a shaman 3 team I personally would go for the taurens, but I have a level 70 orc shaman, and Ive never once regretted it (blood fury is great, I pop it as often as it's up).
I have 5 tauren shamans and definately would swap them in for 5 orcs.
The orc racial that increases spelldamage can actually play a large factor between wiping or not.
nice then .. ill continue my 3 orc shamans :P
i just bought my 2 other accounts and im ready to rock
Not true at all, I've noticed on a many a boss fight where the boss is suppose to stun the group that 1 or 2 keep going and they can switch to healing for a bitQuote:

If your end-game goal is PvP, go with Tauren (AoE stun/interrupt).
If your end-game goal is PvE, go with Orcs (+spell damage) or Draenei (+1% spell hit).
omg im loving it !
3 shamans with lightning bolt and earth shock is pretty sweet .. Currently im grinding to lvl .
I find that doing quests is pretty annoying with 3 boxing .. anyone else feel the same ? or any advice ?
Most quests are faster with more characters.. just skip collection quests unless they're part of a chain that you feel is worth it. I know I couldn't have done the Overlord quest in Hellfire at level 60 without help if I weren't 5-boxing.Quote:

I've ended up doing many collection quests, and it's not a big deal if you think of it more as a grinding session than questing. Helboar blood samples, purified helboar meat, and voidwalker essences were a pain in the ass to get 5x the drops, but I did it. I grinded out a few primal shadow, and quite a few stacks of helboar leather in the process, not to mention the gold from all the gray vendor drops.. those animal body parts usually sell for 1g+ a stack in Outland.
Try getting 150 human skulls in Hillsbrad Foothills...
I'm currently boxing 3 shaman on the alliance side. So far the only drop quests I've skipped were the cooking ones, which have been my experience to be the really, really low drop rates. If you know which quests to grind out and which to avoid, its not too bad. (so far for me anway)
The cooking quests are by far the easiest to complete, since they're not "Quest Items," you can buy them at the AH or collect them with a lvl 70 alt. :)Quote:

is there a way to loot the quest item with your main or you have to switch screen each time you want to loot a quest item ?
Also , when you cash the quests , you have to cash it one by one right ?
The only good thing i found so far is that i take a quest with my main and my alts auto accepts the quests when i share.
What i do is set loot for free for all. When it is a pick up x number of stuff off mobs, i always have my main loot the mob. He will be the first to complete the quest once he is done with the quest he cannot loot it anymore, but the item still drops. So when the main finish and you kill your next mob, look at one of your other toons screen if the body is still shinning (meaning there is loot on the body still) that mob has a quest drop on it. Just continue this until everyone has the items.Quote:

Now for pick up items, like pick so many flowers. I have the main pick up last. The reason is after the main finished the quest the items do not shine anymore.
I do this too for collection/pick up/drop quests. I'll go in reverse order - complete with 5th character first.. then 4th.. then 3rd.. allt he way back to main - that way, when the main is done, I'll double-check the quest log for all character to make sure it's ready to turn in.Quote:

Sry i forgot to mention that i have loot everything set. I just got sick of clicking on all the items, having loot all set make life so much easier.Quote:
