5 man multibox team team vs 2 separate smaller teams

Great and I am glad the posts are helping others! Thanks to Christaphonz making us aware of the FedEx info. Now any Alliance group with Humans in it has a really well documented path to follow to avoid the chaos. After testing multiple options for any race joining a Human group the simplest option will be for that(those) race(s) to first go straight to the Human starting area (avoiding all quests if possible on the way if you care about the non-humans being higher level for awhile). Night Elves are pretty easy with that shortcut and both Gnomes and Dwarves are trivial due to the Tram between IronForge and StormWind. Doing it that way minimizes any level differences, prevents any repetition, and keeps their Hearth Stones from ever getting out of sync...

Trying this run out again on the stress test today, and getting hammered by coastal frenzies (fish) on the Darkshore swim. Either I'm doing it incorrectly this time, or they added these mobs to stop this approach. Thoughts welcome.

Well, ignore what I said. In the mad rush, I forgot to actually boat to Menethil before attempting the swim. I just did it the right way and it works fine. You rez in Kharanos using this method. If anyone ever wants to take a swim down the western side of Darkshore for no reason at all, I highly recommend against it. Sorry for the false alarm.
