Leveling for the bazillionth time is rough

[Moorea]

I enjoy getting my new pally team up (with booster and raf) - yesterday I got the stratholme achievement for the first time(*) and it was fun to get surprised and die a few times (pallies are now 49) - I dread the 71-80 grind though - I look forward to do 60-71 in outland with flying mounts starting at 60

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

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.

With the Thero's, I will be taking time out to level up and go through all the instances I can (powerwar bitches that I level too slowly for his liking, but this is my 1st boxing team and he is onto his third or 4th now).

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

I'll say this, there is one nice thing about boosting that came out of Wrath. Argent Dawn rep is now useful for an achievement and title. I spend a good deal of boosting in Strat since I avoid BC unless I plan on keeping the account. With the $5 black Friday accounts, I don't plan on upgrading so it looks like I'll have more level 60 exalted with AD again.

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.

Hi souca; maybe ping times aren't that bad and you can join Kil'Jaden ?

Well, I want to join Kil'Jaden, but the pings there are around 250-320ms. 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. ;(

Chances are I'll just accept it and head to Kil'Jaden. All I need to do is figure out which boosting 80 to transfer over and how to pay for it. 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

I need to update that really because I dropped one of the locks and introduced a priest healer with the priest joining in on the dps when he isnt healing... but I think that as the dungeons start getting higher, I will re-organise my macro's so that he does nothing while the tank and dps are working with another button that starts him off healing

But at the moment, they are doing great... cleared Ulda the other night and I am current working towards 45 and pushing them to get ready for ZF. I might be going slowly, but I am enjoying it a lot really.

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
