Well I only started dual boxing a couple of days ago but I'm really getting into it. I started with 2 shamans and find that they are incredibly fast to level and very good in pvp battlegrounds. I am only 31 at the moment (as I do not have an extra account to boost with).

However, I can afford another WoW account and plan to once I hit 60, I shall be adding another character to this setup (via grant levels then transfer). So which would be best to go with two shamans?

I pretty sure the answer from a lot of people is going to be "A third shaman" which is a very good choice. But really it depends on what you want to do with them long term. You could easily team them up with a DK or some other tanking class to make taking on PvE content that little bit easier, which would then also make getting heroic groups with your 3 team easier as well as tanks are always in short supply.

So I guess my answer is either a tank (I said DK as they are 58 oce out of starting area so easy to get up to that level) or another shaman. Im presuming your elemental at this point so Boomkin or Warlock would give you nice spell casting buffs as well, with the boomkin being another healer/resser like your shamans.

Id like to suggest a boomkin. Druids are incredibly flexibile so if you change your mine later about wanting to fill teh tank role (cuts down ALOT of time in LFD queues) youll have that option available to you. Also the crit buff will be very handy for your shaman.

Moonkins currently suck in PvP, just to warn you.

And the moonkin crit buff DOES NOT STACK with the shamans 51 talentpoint totem.

You'd add a moonkin for Earth & Moon, which is 13% spell damage which is a buff the shammies do not have.

However, for the druid to do comparable damage to a shaman, they will need to manage their Eclipse procs, which means spam Wrath until you get a proc and then Starfire until you get a proc. Ideally, your rotation is Wrath or Starfire on trash, and Insect Swarm > Moonfire > Wrath/Starfire on bosses. You can also get 3% hit from improved faerie fire, which is significant in raids, but likely not going to do much for you in heroics or dailies.

If you want the 13% without managing anything, go with a Warlock, any spec. Curse of the Elements will do the same.
