Anyone have success stories of 3boxing melee characters - or tankless groups (no pettanks either)?
I really want to level some rogues or wizards from level 1 by running through old zones and what not. I'm not really interested in leveling/gearing another tank, loading up healers & 6 accounts. I found it to be too slow/tedious 1-70 when your stopping very often to regear, buy new spells, etc. I got caught up a lot reconfiguring ini's and shopping for entire evenings when I did 6 accounts, get tired and then afk botted while I slept instead of actually playing, just to repeat the next day.
I was thinking of doing rog/rog/rog or wiz/wiz/wiz or something else for the 'funsies' maybe 2 chars and a bard (only if necessary), allowing me to copy/paste ini's and quickly pick up identical spells/weapons and move on.
Running through some tss zones/quests (I remember the hive being lots of fun).
Not even remotely close to optimal. Will I hit a brick wall doing that? Is relying on tank mercs/healers reasonably effective? I'm not sure if I've used a tank merc past level 20 before.
At what level do you even need to start using a tank 60? 70?
I'm thinking the tank merc would have the advantage of being able to get & maintain aggro on multi pulls (something I haven't been able to get right on my tank bot - and even when it would, the content would be too tough to stay alive for long).
Upto level 70 rogues do silly damage with their poison procs, I recall one shotting mobs at level 40 when the new poison procs first came out. I'm sure triple nuking is just as quick upto level 70.
