68 - 80

[ragawaga]

My shaman team are 68 or thereabouts now so potentially ready to hit Northrend. Unfortunately, only 2 of the accounts have 80s on them to purchase the cold weather flying item, so it would mean they'd be bound to land. I don't know if I can be bothered with that!

I was thinking that I could just continue questing in Outland until I've done all the ones I can face...I reckon that could easily get me into the early 70s. So far I've only done Hellfire Peninsula...then went straight to Nagrand...hardly done anything there.
I was thinking that when I've done all the question I can be bothered with I can either
- try my hand at the Outland heroics on the 5 team - adding in some battle grounds
- level solely in the battlegrounds
- swap in the pally tank and farm the northrend instances

I know it's not gonna get as much XP as instancing, but is it going to be that much slower? Does it seem like a valid way or will I get bored stupid?

with the new LFG system and 70-80 random instance quest reward being triumph badges... just sit ur ass in town and join LFG as group... instant port into instance.. complate it and when u hit 80 have enough badges for loads of epics.. win win win

[ragawaga]

Really, triumph badges at 70!?

[Smegster]

im guessing its 70.. logged on my 75 druid for a laugh. tanked an instance and at end got like 2 triumph badges.. or was it 3? meh.. anyways yes.. u get triumph before 80

[ragawaga]

Awesome....I'll need to try that out. I wonder if you get the BC badges for doing the same.

[heyaz]

All of those methods are pretty slow

[ragawaga]

Yeah, I didn't expect them to be all that quick, especially considering the queue times for BGs in the 61-70 bracket! It was more of a means of not getting insanely bored....but if that does work getting triumph badges for doing random instances on normal mode, then I can get myself tons of badges from throwing some farming runs into the mix.

I just got my first 2 emblems of triumph at 77 . I am going to be able to buy triump gear before I even hit 80 lmao.

You only get 2 triumph ONCE per day for normal dungeons. So this is NOT viable.

Not viable for what? If you are leveling a group that can do instances why would you not do the random daily instance for the 2 triumph? My group dinged 77 in VH doing the random daily and I can promise you I will be doing the random instance every day until I am able to do heroics.
