Solo or Multibox in Expansion?

[outdrsyguy1]

I'll be 5 boxing from the start with my 5 shaman team for pvp. I'm totally going to ruin some alliance players lives during leveling since i'm on a pvp server and i'm sure it will be a gankfest race. A lot of quest hubs are shared with both factions AND DO NOT have guards at the questgivers currently.

After that i'll level an instance team (not sure combo yet). Then start thinking about my 2nd pvp team. Possibly 4 dk's/1 disc priest. Dk's seem pretty damn good in beta right now. I"m really gonna miss the pallies and the bubble's but with dk's actually doing good damage now, 4 death grips will be a riot.

The cost of the expansions certainly sucks though, 6 accounts to buy, ouch. I wonder if the stores will even let me buy 6 boxes on release day... hmmm....

You can pre-download the client and purchase a digital copy online form Blizzard like SC2. I wish I knew this before pre-ordering 4 normal copies and a CE copy from EB games who are going to make a sheer $100 profit off me on top of what Blizzare selling the shit for.

Makes me sad. But ah well.

Hm, how did EB games made 100 bucks extra from you with those retail boxed compared to those digital copy online ? They should be the same price, no ?
and I thought the digital copies were later than the retail ones, not sure though.

Plus a lot of folks were collecting those retail boxes (lay them on top of each other to make matchstick house, idk)

We are talking Australia here.

EB dont lowertheir prices to account for exchange rate.

WoW Cata Normal is $58 AU

Digital Download is $39 US.

We are 97c in the dollar to the US.

The colelcters edition is estimated to be $150 AU

vs $79 US

i'm in Sydney and went to EB games (and a couple other shops, JB hifi / Dicksmiths ) and only EB had a 'tentative' price for preorder.
At the moment you can preorder the collectors edition for $108 (australian) and there is no price yet for the normal edition.
their 'guestimate' was 26/28 November, whereas JB told me Xmas.

I guess the normal edition will be around AU$70
which is still very steep considering we still pay every month
