Duo box vs 5-man box

[Hiddenbrom]

4 mages + 1 priest is currently the fastest setup. Can get to 60 in less than a week if you know what you're doing.

I assume this is with AoE dungeon farming. I am familiar with AoE grind but have never multiboxed before. I have thought of this but figured duo questing with a druid and hunter would be around the same speed

There is no way questing is the same speed as 4 mages grinding dungeons, i'm afraid. I also wish questing was more multibox friendly but I can assure you it is not, from my personal experience. (leveled 10 shamans to level 37 purely by questing)

That is correct. Last Thursday I made 4x mage disc and atm I am lv 53 ( last 2 days been chill mode). That should tell you the speed of leveling using that setup (5 days 4 hours played or similiar atm).

Nothing trumps this setup apart perhaps paladin/3xmage/disc. Also, I'd recommend grinding last 8 levels in dugeons and leaving quests for completion upon reaching 60 so you can get massive gold. 1 quest usually gives you 15g-20g but I've had one quest where i got 70g (with item rewards as well). So you can see how lucrative that can be.

Yes after reading alot on this forum this seems to be the case. How does it actually work to make 5 accounts, do I have to keep track of 5 diffrent emails or can i create 5 subscriptions within my main account? Also, for classic you just pay subtime so its like 5*$12 + isboxer?

Essentially yes. You have both options (1 account with multiple accounts or 5 emails/accounts each with it's own subscription). Personally I like the latter (I have 5 kids & a wife so I like the separate logins).

Supposedly Blizzard is going to re-open the Recruit-A-Friend program Soon(TM) but even though they announced it on 9/10/19 and it was in the Patch Notes it hasn't gone live yet for some reason. I likely will wait on it before maybe reactivating my 6-10 accounts but I am not sure I would wait for it for your 1st 5 though it is something to be aware of:

Well RaF wont come to classic and I'm only concerned about classic. There's no reason to farm gold in retail. But if I enjoy multiboxing maybe it would be fun to try on retail one day

So if you were strictly pve you would throw a paladin into the mix?

[Peregrine]

For dungeon purposes, yeah!

So quests that can be turned in at 52+ can be turned in at 60 and give you more gold if you wait till level 60?
