going to start dual boxingFollow

after the last several months of trouble getting groups, I decided to start dual boxing, which should make XPing a bit easier since my main toon is a 60/warr, I will make a healer on the 2nd acct and get him up to about 50 and just group my tank and healer together until we find a caster and DD.. seems to make sense. heres my question.. first, I want to get this healer up to about 50 asap. I'm not gonna spend anything on CMs.. probably not gonna do many quests. this toons for the most part is gonna be pretty basic, all he will do is sit on my 2nd screen and keep my tank targeted, when the tank needs a heal, I will reach over and press the O button on the other controller. I do plan to build him up someday but there is just so much more I gotta do with my tank now that he is 60, but finding groups have been a pain lately.. so I figure if I devote some time and build this healer up, it will help me out in the long run.... (i know i said i was gonna ask a question... so here it is) for just a basic healer, what do you guys think I should make and how long til I can get him around 50? I just made a druid and my plan is to just xp him myself til about 10-15, then have my tank help him with pickclaws around 15-25, then just farm sloth rings for him til about 45.. anyone with a better way, just let me know.. I been playing for over 4 years now and this will be my first alt that I will get beyond 40 and the first time I will be power leveling, so I feel alittle lost.

To get to 50 should be a few months not knowing how your population is. And also not knowing how you plan to PL if any more than Hunt and Gather. AND also not knowing how much you play. I think Druid will be a good combo for you; SoW, Invis, gates, buffs, etc will go pretty well. If you are going solo; rings, herbs, roots, etc hunt and gather is probably the best way.

Not exactly sure what you are asking here. I can only guess path since MC isn't till 55 and you're only going to 50. As far as Path, i'm not 100% sure. DoT will not do much good since he's just following you around with con on your tank for heals, so I guess I'd say group heal.

I can't help but to think this is not answering your question though. if there is anything you can think of or that I missed, please let me know.

I ended up making a Druid. I soloed him up to 10 just running around Rivervale doing quests and killing wildlife. Then I whento HP and used my main to kill the brawler and shaman pickclaws for him to loot and got to 20 in a day. When he hits 30 I am gonna farm siloth rings for him til 45, then I will probally start using him in my groups.

What I am looking for now is a place to get him from 20-30. Pickclaws seems a little slow for those levels. Anyone know a good Hunt and Gather quest for 20 through 30?

It gets to be a hastle, but if you can't find a group, hang along the road in HP and kill the Adept Brawler and Shamans (though I think 21 is the level to start turning them in, i'm not sure). Your WAR can still probably kill them in 1 hit and there's usually 60's along the road that ignore the greens.

I started an ALC on Wednesday to run with my buddy's SHA, we PL'd as we got time, and got 36 yersterday. Does your Warrior have a WBBP? If so, PL's can be fairly easy if you have an AoE'r. If you can get a DD atleast, get the mobs under half life and have the WAR finish them off.

Along the same lines, if you've never had a decent level healer before, I'd frequently get some practice in. Alot of people who don't use healers don't realize how crappy the timing is on just about all their spells. Healer spells are about the slowest in the game short of RH, CotH, and gates/ports...which I think is BS but I gave up that fight.
