Newish Boxer, My Plan and Questions, Looking for Opinions/Explanations

[nodoze]

Warrior+Priest+3Warlocks is likely a great team and works well on both Horde and Alliance. Often people want to mix into teams at least 1 Mage for food/water/ports but personally I think ports are overrated relatively and if I understand correctly a Priest+Warlock+Warrior team shouldn't need any food and minimal water so you may be set...

Unless there are other considerations (like iRL friends on other servers) I respectfully recommend you try to get on one of the following servers where Classic Multi-box Communities are forming:

• Region.. : Faction. : Type: Server.. : Guild Name : Primary Point of Contact;
  
• Americas : Alliance : PVP : Herod... : <TBD>..... : Nodoze;
  
• Americas : Horde... : PVP : Herod... : <Overload> : Zal;
  
• Americas : Alliance : PVE : Pagel... : <TBD>..... : TBD;
  
• Americas : Horde... : PVE : TBD..... : <TBD>..... : TBD;
  
• Europe.. : Alliance : PVP : Shazzrah : <TBD>..... : TBD;
  
• Europe.. : Horde... : PVP : Shazzrah : <TBD>..... : TBD;
  
• Europe.. : Alliance : PVE : Pyrewood : <TBD>..... : TBD;
  
• Europe.. : Horde... : PVE : Pyrewood : <TBD>..... : TBD;
  
• Oceanic. : Alliance : PVP : Arugal.. : <TBD>..... : TBD;
  
• Oceanic. : Horde... : PVP : Arugal.. : <TBD>..... : TBD;
  
• Oceanic. : Alliance : PVE : Remulos. : <TBD>..... : TBD;
  
• Oceanic. : Horde... : PVE : Remulos. : <TBD>..... : TBD;
  

Note: The above is just a quick copy/paste at a point in time from the 'List of Classic WoW Multibox Teams'and may quickly become out of date. If you want to get as up to date info as possible as to which groups are on which servers (and related contact info) I respectfully recommend you CLICK HERE.

1) Yes absolutely. Feel free to /ignore other players if you politely reply and they harass you and you can even report them if they go overboard. Over the years I had a few GMs reach out to me and with respectful dialog I never had any issues and even became friends with one GM who was interested in the topic and he would come do cool stuff periodically.

2) I would just do all 5 from the start though I would stay away from the kill X & loot Y quests where you can. That is where you can get into contention with others and it is inefficient for you if each of your 5 characters has to loot a different mob for progression. Can cause unneeded drama with other regular players trying to do their quest and is inefficient for you anyway.

3) Sorry I cant help here yet but hopefully others can. The last time I 5boxed or 10boxed WoW was WoTLK and I only re-enabled 1 subscription during the beta & 4 more right before name reservations. Now that I have 5 subscriptions active I plan to try to setup ISBoxer on regular live WoW in prep for Classic launch but there may be differences that I won't understand until Classic is unlocked. I will likely create a similar team composition on live and group them up and level up some just to prep even though I know it won't be 100% accurate representation of what Classic will be when unlocked.

The above being said (err typed), I am definitely going to watch this thread because any help you get on your 3rd Question will likely help me also. If you don't get responses in a timely enough manner you may want to go see if there is a Classic WoW sub-forum in the ISBoxer forums as there may already be guides there... There may also be some guides &/or good threads in this dual-boxing.com Classic WoW sub-forum as well (try searching with the Advanced Search Feature). I have seen some stuff related to these topics but not sure where/when/etc as things tend to blur together in my head and I typically don't focus too much on something until I am ready to actually tackle it (and not much I could do with only 1 subscription)...
