8-Box Leveling

[CMKCot]

depends on what will you be doing endgame, if you plan on doing current content with ALL characters, meaning grinding everyday and keeping up with questlines, world quests, etc. then level them as two 4 man groups. and then play them as two 4 man groups on end game. (will greatly help with learning how to play as a split group, and have a ready to play setup once you max)


if you want to just run old content with the full raid and 5man current content; then level them as a main group of 5man, and the other group as 3dps, you can smash old dungeons on the lfd tool, and then switch to islands for the last stretch. once you max just forget about them, you use them for the extra slots anyway.


quest leveling IS the best way of leveling an 8man group, but only if its a mixed group and you plan ahead what you want to unlock.

im currently leveling a big group with leather/cloth/mail/plate mix. i do that not only to unlock everything, but also to fill the stupid class requirement for the 8th guild tab.

its extremely efficient, and knowing i don't have to ever go back to old zones is pretty satisfying.
