    I have no interest in the PvE aspect of the game, unless you count killing city bosses (on a PvP server) and dozens of opposing faction players as a PvE event.

    10-Boxing opens 10-man Rated Battlegrounds.
    The same as it opens 10-man Raid Content.

    10-Boxing is a lot more power, in PvP.
    It is a deterrent against being ganked, or someone making the attempt... more so than five.

    Obviously 10-box is for 40-man battlegrounds or opposing cities; don't think you could do that well in 15-man BG's but might do well in WSG (or anywhere else where there is only one objective to guard).

    Ultimately, it comes down to what you find fun.
    EverQuest I: Bard / Enchanter / Druid / Wizard / 2x Magician.
    Diablo III: 4x Crusader & 4x Wizard.

    Is it more power, though? You'll be able to kill people faster, but you'll lose far more games than you'll win taking up 10/10 or 10/15 slots in a BG, never mind rated BG's. The 15+ slot BG's aren't in the rated queues (for good reason - you can hardly call AV PvP).

    10boxing PvE content seems like it'd be a fun challenge, but there's just no real PvP format in WoW benefits 10 more than 5.

    My three favorite PvP activities are:
    a) Hold something in their city;
    b) Rath Strat, AV (resource win, via choke points and/or farming their graveyard); and
    c) Turtle Domination, IoC (farming them at our General).

    Ten is definitely more power than five.
    And in venues of 40's or unlimited numbers, it's not going to hurt my side having that.
    Plus having ten, does not preclude me from using half the team.

    I personally was purely into PvE for Classic+Burning Crusade.
    And very early WotLK switched entirely to PvP as my focus.
    Nothing says I won't switch to PvE for the challenge, at some point.

    I plan on setting up IS Boxer with three profiles per team.
    Or characters sets, is a better word.
    First five, second five, and all ten.
    Then can run any team, either way with the same hotkeys.
