    Hi All,

    I have been playing around a lot doing level 60 dungeons on a private server and testing our different classes. The classes are Warrior (prot), Druid (Feral), Hunter (BM), Mage (Frost), Warlock (SM/Ruin), Pally (Holy) and the dungeons I am doing are Strat, BRD, LBRS and some Dire Maul. They have pretty bad gear like that of fairly fresh 60's but its slowly improving.

    I might get banned soon as they don't allow multiboxing on this private server but I just hide in instances minding my own business and i don't use the AH. I never engage in world pvp.

    The warrior is hard to play with a lot of stance dancing macros set up and rage management. As its the master character you get to do all that however and with practice you can keep getting better and perfecting your playstyle and aggro.

    The druid tank seems very good at tanking multiple mobs with swipe better than my warrior can but lacks the survivability. In cat its hard to do very good dps especially without castsequence in the old API

    The hunter dead zone was a nightmare and I've cut him completely as his dps was bad. The pet was handy as an off tank but like the warlock pet caused some annoying wipes.

    The Warlock is spamming Shadow Bolt and without castsequence in the API its hard to weave in life taps and goes OOM very quickly. The pet is a pain cos even though i have it on passive I have a /assist /petattack in the dps macro and it seems to pull random packs itself at certain times. This may be a private server issue but it causes wipes.

    The mage is OP. Just spamming frostbolts the dps is very good and doesn't seem to run out of mana anywhere near as fast as the Lock. AE is insane as well as things like frost nova and ice barrier. Poly is also the best CC by far I have found just for its ease of use and longevity.

    The Holy Pally is ok but I just keep wishing it was a priest.

    At this stage I'm fairly sure I'm going Warrior, Mage x 3, Priest for Classic. I have thought about chucking a Druid in to either tank or go balance but it just seems like I would be weakening my comp.

    My goals are to have all 5 man's on farm. I also want to be 300 skill level in all 9 primary professions across my 5 characters.

    Any questions or ideas I'm very interested to hear them.. I can't wait for Classic and to actually get started on my progress

    Bro could you answer me some questions please? I just hit lvl 10 on 5 chars on private server yesteray and tried to do RFC, couldnt go past 2 first larva mobs my comp is (Warr , pri , 2x mage, lock)

    My warrior cant hold aggro for longer than the taunt duration, gear is very bad on all the chars basically lvl 3 items.

    Is my lvl 10 too low to start doing rfc? should I hit 12 first? If yes then where can I level 10-12 with 5 chars? I finished durotar at 7 and half level and went to mulgore did the q's there and came back to durotar and grinded the rest.. that was really tedious..

    Also my another question is how do you manage the healer? Do you have some kind of addons? using isboxer vfx?

    Last question - what was your xp/hr when doing 1-60 in dungeons with 5 chars??

    Wow good post interesting dalo . Few questions : What do you think to pally at healing ? With the buffs, salvation blessing, etc , can the paladin be better than the priest?

    For the tank warrior, what spec do you use at leveling dungeons ? Protection with shield is better ?

    Sorry for bad english, french fries here..

    Thank you !

    I’m going with an aoe mage team as well. The mage will be my main raider. 3 mage + tank + paladin healer. I can’t decide between warrior or paladin tank. I want to go warrior because of better gear potential from raiding in our alt raid, but paladin in general is a bit better for holding aoe threat. Hmm..

    Level 10 seems way too low for RFC the end boss is level 16 so I would be going in at 13 at the lowest

    Head to the Barrens and quests there near the Crossroads for a few levels

    To manage the healer I tried to set up Grid and Clique through ISBoxer but with the original vanilla addons it bugged a lot.. I ended up using an addon called quickheal which selects the toon with the lowest health and heals them.. this will not be available with classic due to the API's however but there will be new grid/clique combo setups that will work

    This characters were leveled so long ago I have none of that data regarding leveling sorry... it wouldn't be anything like the Melee cleave speeds of 5 good players on there own characters but its still decent XP once you have a good rotation and set up going

    The Holy Pally is ok I don't even use Salv I use Kings on the group and Light on the tank as keeping aggro isn't that hard if your a decent tank... I just feel that overall the priest is the better option with things like Renew, PWS, shackle and Fort. Pally seems decent enough though.

    Tank Warrior is purely protection... with all the DPS from your other characters no reason to make him a dps spec as well

    Hope that helps

    Would a video of my running through some of BRD help? I'm really struggling the lyceum at the moment I wish i had more mages hah

    Cats have always been hard to derp-macro. ISBoxer's steps make it a LOT easier, though it's still much like rogues in that it's an energy management and timing game.

    Can't disagree on the deadzone issue, though the DPS as I recall was mostly a gear thing in vanilla. What spec are you running? If pets are causing wipes I suspect you're doing it wrong. See next comment.

    Question: are you making use of a /stopmacro statement at the top of your DPS macros? If you are not, this is why you are randomly pulling stuff. Pet classes suffer from this where normal melee (I think) and casters do not.
