I just got my final character over 3k which means I got all 13 classes to 3k this season. This has NEVER been recorded in history before. Right now my combined IO is 39,364. I did most of this just playing casually a few hours a day a few days a week. But my first few toons were a hard grind. But I figured I’d do an AMA, below are a few answers to some common questions.
How Long have I played?
On and off since 2004 but always had an active subscription.
What’s the highest content I’ve done?
I generally end up doing mid core mythic raiding but due to my hectic RL, I often fall off and cannot commit.
Do I work and/or stream?
I have a full time 9-5 job as an engineer and also sit on the board of several nonprofits that keep me busy. I don’t stream
What is my favorite class?
Paladin is my OG main but right now I’m loving priest. I first picked up priest in Legion.
My best class?
I’d say elemental shaman I way over perform on, same with SV Hunter
My worst class?
Definitely rogue and DK, I’m awful at both and I really get frustrated with them.
How many keys did I do this season?
I’m currently sitting around 1,000 20-25s timed, with a bulk of them happening the first 2 months.
What’s my highest and lowest score toon?
I have a toon at 3050 and a toon at exactly 3k.
How many hours do I play a week?
On average less than 10, but that includes several 40 hour week grinds and 4 weeks I took a break. I typically average 2.5 keys an hour.
Do I pugs?
A lot of my keys are plugged, but I’d say it’s about 50/50. I am always in a key or raid if I’m on. I never sit idle doing nothing.
What’s my fastest toon to 3k?
My SV Hunter did it in from fresh 70 in 9 days. I simply get my toons to 450-455 ilevel, make sure I have 4 piece then get a +19 key running with a friend then slam every key on an 18/19 that night (Monday) then run 20-23s the next week and the following Tuesday run a few 20-23s to up my 1st weeks score.
Would I do again?
Probably not, some classes like rogue and DK I don’t enjoy and it was grueling to get my DK to 3K.
