Hi,

I love multi-boxing videos, and I also played around with 2 wow-windows, but without scripts/addons, just pulling a twink through low instances with follow-mode.

But I love the idea of doing instances with a 5-man-group alone, no lvl70 pulling them.

Why are there so less groups with a dedicated tank?

I currenty would prefer this setup:
- 1 paladin
- 3 warlocks
- 1 priest

this would give me a nice flexible group:
I always have nice single-damage and also very nice bomb-damage. I have 3 soulstones and I can ressurect very often (If either the priest or paladin dies, there is a second ressurecter, if all 5 die, I have soulstones on them).
- while questing, I could use: 1 holy-paladin, 3 warlocks and 1 shadowpriest. This give very good damage, and also good healing if there is something to heal (life-tap, mob-damage). Shadowpriest could be a problem because of mana/drinking very often.
-while doing instances: 1 prot-paladin, 3 warlocks, 1 holy-priest. This gives me a good tank with also easy multi-tanking, good heal. Then I should be able to do hard instances as well, that I couldn't do without a dedicated tank.

I personally like instances more than questing (5-man-questing seems very easy). So I think I cannot do it without a dedicated tank.

But I also saw some nice videos with 1 priest and 4 warlocks in <60 instances, voidwalkers tanking. Could be a nice option, too.

Would be nice to get some more deep information about group-setups with/without a tank.
