Efficient ways of levelling teams from 60 to 80

[neoflo]

Hi Multiboxers,

First off I want to say what a great site chalk full of great information. I recently got back into wow and my friend showed me one youtube video and I was instantly hooked. From following all the readily available information I now have 3 sets of 4 x 60's and still have a ton of raf time to go.

Now I've gotten to the point where I am starting to want to take the sets of 60's up to 80. I've tried to find a some information on how this is best done but have only found small snippets of information in assorted threads.

I was wondering if anybody in the community could share with me their ideas on how to most efficiently go about the process of leveling fresh sets of 60's to 80. I do have a 5th account with passable to well geared 80's on it to help with the process.

Any help would be much appreciated, thanks in advance!

In burning crusade i prefered a good mix between farming instances and questing from hellfire peninsula to nagrand.

When you hit the 70: http://www.dual-boxing.com/showthread.php?t=29381
Iam 75 atm and i noticed, when you know the quests you are faster then grinding istances, even with no heirloom-shoulders or flying mount. With a lot of rested XP, instances are faster.

If you are Alliance: dont miss the first quest chains in borean tundra. At the beginning you have very rare gather quests (except in this gnome area).

What is your group composition?

Thanks for the quick reply,

I have a 4 x shaman set, 4 x pally set, and a set with a mix of 2 + 2 lock/mage set.

The 5th account that I've been taking these 4 accounts through the instances with has shaman, warrior, druid, rogue, warlock, hunter, death knight all level 80 that are passable to well geared.

I still want to make more sets of 60's so that I can mix and match composition as I haven't reached that stage yet.

Thanks Mike,

That's great information looks like I can keep boosting through instances up to 70.

You might not like to hear it...level more teams. having them at 60 is great "in Case" but also try to get to 80 with a team for all that gold

I leveled from 60-80 in Instances and then soloed my toons up from 70-80 solo. It took about a week for each toon from 70-80 the faster you learnt he quest lines the quicker it takes. I normally did it in rotation so i did not burn through all my rest xp. I guess heirloom items really help now also if you have access to any.

Thanks guys,

Yes Alcattle it will be a long road but ultimately I would like to have all my teams sitting at 80. From what I gathered from the thread I was directed it seems like I will indeed need to run quests from 70-80, but can boost from in instances still from 60-70.

One thing about questing about leveling from 70-80, can I also do that as a team but skip all the collection quests?

Three problems with that in my opinion.

1. Northrend is made up of so many very very long quest chains. Skip an opening collection quest and you could be skipping a dozen follow-ons.

2. Some quest chains open up phased areas etc, which you'll need later on for chants and such.

3. Blizzard annoyingly made most quests in Northrend collection rather than kill, and stupidly made all but one of them (one in Borrean Tundra) single drop rather than group drop (ironic that an MMO penalises group-leveling).

My current team is 2 levels off Northrend now, and if there's a faster way to level beyond just sucking it up and wading through mountains of boring collection quests, I'm all ears.

Thanks for the insight Oz.
