@Teslah - How much of that raid content (if any) did you do with a 5-toon team?

Also, does anyone know if you can get Guild raid achievements if you have only 5 toons?
I thought I read somewhere that you need like 7 guild members to get credit for 10-man achievements.

I did most of the raids solo, some with a few characters and a couple with 5 characters. The guild I was in didn't like it too much. Plus, others would complain I was getting more loot than I should. Also, (like most here) I did most of the original ones solo going back to MC, 15 man UBRS, 10 man Strat, BWL (I always controlled Razorgore with another person). Never did BT or Ulduar though.

I did Kael today with a 10 man team and got the guild achievement. I didn't get it last week with 7 characters. I thought you needed the majority of the raid to get the guild achievement, but it gave it to me with 10 chars out of 25.

On a side note, I think the more people in your raid the more gold you get. I thought I got 25 gold per character last week for each boss, and I got 25 gold again this week. I had 7 last week and 10 this week so each person gets 25g. Bring as many as you can, even if they sit there. You'll get more money.

I'm a bit confused. You seem to be implying at certain times you had other people present on these raids.

I'm trying to figure out which raids you did at 85 with only a 5-box team (or less - and no one else, real or boxed). Or did you box more than 5 toons for each of them? (your signature implies that you only have 5 accounts)

It also confuses me that your original post mentions killing Illidan easily, yet this post says you never did BT. Am I missing something here?

The bottom line is that I'm trying to get a feel for what old raid content I can 5-box.

I might have misunderstood your question. I thought you meant during my entire time playing wow, even years ago did I do these raids boxing. When they first came out I did them at the right level with one character. Some times I could bring a few dps and so on. This was years ago. That is what I thought you were asking. I never did BT when it first came out years ago. I am doing it now no problem with 5 to 10 people by myself boxing it. That's what I meant.

Ok, as far as right now today I am doing all of these by myself with 5 to 10 people. You can 5 box all of these I believe. I am bringing more characters to make it easier, for more gold and for more achievements is all.

Illidan right now today with a 10-man team was very easy. He might have been the easiest boss in the instance becasue he went down so fast. I didn't need to move or do anything special for him at all. I am sure you could 5 man it, but of course with 8 dps blasting him it was much easier.

No one else is going with me on these runs that I am doing now or for the past few weeks. Once in a while a friend will box with me on new content to get it down, but not for the above ones I was talking about in the original post.

Again, I thought you meant when these were first released if I boxed them or ran them solo or at all.

Anyway, you can 5 man all these by yourself. It will be easier with more dps, but nothing really hurts you and if you move out of the fire they are all pretty easy.

Hope that helps.

Also, my sig is really old. I need to update it. That is from 3 or so years ago. Ignore it.

Updated the main post. Knocked out MC, AQ 20, AQ 40 and BWL 40 yesterday. Had help with RG in BWL. All of them are nice and easy and fun to run. If you didn't have a chance to run them when they were released, go back now and enjoy the content.
