Group Quests Solo?Follow

I did pretty much any 2/3 man "group" quests solo with my druid. Bear is the preferred option in most cases for survivability. Load up some HoTs on yourself, go bear, engage mob, and if your health starts to dip, pop out, toss a couple more HoTs, and then drop back to bear. You'll do more damage in cat form but you'll also take way more damage and in most cases (particularly a lot of the 3 person quests) the mobs you have to kill have too much HP to hope to burn through them in cat form before you're dead.

You can apply the same tactics pretty much to boomkin as well.

Load up hots, Starfire, starfall, pop trees and wrath until the thing is dead. If you can root it, GG it's gonna die no matter what.

I did almost all the Dragonblight group quests except for the last two solo as a boomkin in BC endgame gear.

No way! I love it when I have to fight an elite - it is actually a bit of a challenge! I'm leveling my 4th toon from 70-80 at the moment and 99% of the time you are killing a mob a level or two below you and there is never any risk involved other than unlucky adds. If I didn't have the odd elite to kill, then I would have no opportunity to learn things like counterspell,kiting and using my water elementals frost nova with my mage; fears, shields & heals on my shadow priest; kiting, bouncing aggro with my pet (FD, pet taunt, distracting shot etc)on my hunter; using bear stun & heals etc on my druid.

So much of leveling is the same easy fight over and over. FB, FB, FB, Frost Nova, FB, IceLance - dead. Dot, Dot, Dot, Mind Blast, Mind Flay - dead. HuntersMark, PetAttack, Steady, Steady, Steady - dead. Rake, SR, Mangle, Mangle, FB - dead. It is nice to have the challenges sprinkled in.

And, if you can't manage it (some quests just don't work for some classes), and can't find help, then missing out on a piece of loot is not that much of an issue - you'll get a green from an easy quest in the next level or so that will beat it anyway (in 99% of cases).

Little thing to add to this. A tip I got a little while back, perhaps not even from this forum.

Basically, if you're in decent tank gear or with a good chunk of health and have specced into Survival Instincts, pop it before using Frenzied Regen at full rage. You'll recover some ~40% (39%) of your real health instead of the usual 30%.

When I do my daily Sethekk run, I never need to pop out and heal as I drop to about 40% after the second Banish phase and use SI/FR to get me back to 75-80% to finish the fight. Helped a ton when I did the last few quests in Storm Peaks/Icecrown. (Still can't manage some 5-man quests, of course D:)
