So i'm bassically got all the arena gear atm, sitting around 1900. So, im thinking about doing some raiding. Ive done naxx, ony, VOA, and all that, but what about Uludar+TOC+ICC. is it multiboxable? ive done the first 2 bosses in uludar but nothing after. Wondering if u guys can pull it off, or should i solo raid, then multibox pvp?
Yeh would be nice o know aswell, please share :) Ive only done voa and mos hcs as 1 reso + 3 ele with random tank.

Naxx, VoA, Sarth are all boxable very easily. Ulduar is going to be hit and miss. Lots of movement lots of singlet target debuffs. And some bosses, there is just no way in hell 1 person can 10 box it, you'd have to have at least 2 people if not more. I think the LoB guys have boxed Flame Leviathan, Razorscale, and XT-002. Anything past that is going to be pretty tough. ToC is going to be the same way. The first 2 fights are taunt intensive for tanks, debuffs on single targets and getting out of fire QUICKLY. The first boss can probably be boxed if you can outgear it a bit. The second, maybe. The third? Doubtful. The 3rd encounter in TOC is Faction Champions, it's a PvP fight where you have to be able to lock down multiple targets at 1 time while focusing down 1 target. As for ICC? I *really* doubt it until you can out gear it substantially and even then, I think the first 2 bosses may be boxable, but after that, there are too many different things going on.
But hey, give it a shot, multiboxers do stuff everything that people said can't be done.

Running multiple dps in a raid isn't that difficult. I'd bet that you could at a minimum dual box 2 elemental shaman in everything, and do just fine. Tanking/healing is another story. I've done ony with 3 dps, first 4 bosses in ulduar with 4 dps (3 classes). Maybe someone could dual box tanks, for some fights, it's beneficial for the tanks to stack. But mixing roles is much tougher. Maybe boxing tank and tank healer, but raid healing, I doubt it.

I've done Ulduar-10 (in t7/t8) up through Mimiron with 2-4 sham and ToC10 up through Lord J with 2-3 dps (mostly still t7/t8). Haven't raided since I reactivated a couple weeks ago though.
You would probably want to run the encounters solo first to get details sorted before you bring in your alts, but running as multiple DPS is pretty painless generally. Be ready to practice your independent movement though for some of the encounters :D

If you solo run them as resto you will have zero problem finding a raid to take you. Healers are always in demand.

Then have fun convincing the raid you want to roll on Elemental Gear as Resto. :(
I've dual boxed tanks in all but Algalon in Uld, and Blood wing of ICC and Putricide. I'm not sure I'd get much more complicated than that. There are a lot of movement fights, but while doing MT and OT duties it's relatively easy, just stand here and tank the boss.... kite with the OT. Burn cooldowns when necessary. Or switch between tanks for those tank switch gimicks.
