How do you plan on leveling in Wotlk?

[blbjtb]

Quests?
Instance?
Both?

As for the quests is there alot of collection quests (Prays that there isnt)
what about the instance anyone know if any are multibox friendly?

Im trying not to freak about the collection quests but thus far it seems to be all I can freaking think about....

[Harem]

Anyone played in the beta know?


(blbjtb - I love the shammy names. I may copy you there (highest form of flattery) if you don't mind.)

[heyaz]

Lots of instances. As few collection quests as possible

[Oatboat]

a mix of both probably.... I'd like to get into the story line a little doing quests, but i dont want to abandon the thought of instances though.

[Duane]

Mostly quests but I'll avoid all of the BOP collection ones I can. I tend to get frustrated running instances to level since I like all of my toons to have the same gear at once.

[Hecro]

Just turned level 70 today with my team - I did 1-70 more or less on quests only and I am now feed up with it

So I will go for as many instances as possible, the problem is just that im not that skilled yet so it might not be the most effient way.

heh have @ it bro I even went so far as to make it so that their guild is The Planeteers... Yeah...

And I changed up my pally and Shaman to have the same name so that their names didnt go out of sequence when I would switch one for the other.

90% Instances
10% Questing

Whatever quests give significant upgrades that I can't get in instances, I'll do. The rest? Screw em!

Dont instances start to get like REALLY old after you have fun it for the 20th time?

Although assuming that the average mob gives 1000 xp a kill and the average quest gives 12k I mean it boils down to can you kill 12 mobs in the time it takes to do one quest I would assume in all cases that would be a resounding yes.

No, average mob gives 1k divided across your players with a slight group bonus, so maybe 300xp per character non rested. So more like can you do 1 quest (which btw in wotlk quests give ~20k xp) in the amount of time it takes you to kill 50 mobs? Most likely the answer is a resounding yes. Some quests you could probably do 3 of in the time it takes to kill 60 mobs.

Personally I plan to do almost all questing and only supplement instances as needed to get to the level barrier for the next zone. I'd also prefer to wait until other multiboxing groups have already figured out 5x shaman strategies for various instances.

I really only like running an instance once ever and then I'm done with it for good. I still don't understand how people can do the same mind numbing task 100 times and not tear their eyes out...at that point its not even a game to me anymore just a chore.

Eliete mobs only give 300 XP are you kidding me wow that really sucks haha hrmm back to my drawing board.

Im just seriously paranoid of collection quests I mean its really bad =P although i may just need to suck it up and just freaking do it.
