5 box suggestions

[delafoo]

I dual boxed on my brother's teamlong ago, 5 shamans... didn't really care for it.

I'm looking for a 5 team suggestion.

I have an 80 mage, 2 80 pallys, an 80 dk, an 80 mage, an 80 priest and an 80 lock..... I'm probably going to level a druid and a shaman.

Looking to do solo, pvp and BG content, as well as alot of ganking :p.

Your suggestions are appreciated.

level up characters and try the 4 frost Dk's 1 healer team people are talking about?
its better to have 4 or 5 of the same class for pvp so maybe druids?

If you have done a melee team before (or are brave), the 4DK+Healer option will probably be good for both PvE and PvP. It's not an easy (re-)introduction to multiboxing, however. I'd stay away from mixing too many classes in PvP, since it can be difficult to maximize your advantages.

5xDruids is VERY flexible and might be something to try...

Since you basically have seven toons, but are considering five boxing.
Really take a hard look at Recruit a Friend.

Assuming you have one account now.
Or even two works.
Add the remaining two or three.
Either:

A > B > C > D > E

A > C
B > D > E

Have your choice of Mage, Pally (Prot) or DK on "A" to boost with.
And level a whole bunch of 4x combinations, to 60th via instance/quest boosting.

two suggestions....

A. For pve stuff you already have a good selection, prot pally/mage/mage/preist/lock is totally viable for 5-mans. You did mention more focus on pvp, so maybe this is not a main part of your plan.

B. If RAF is an option for you, I would consider

Current acct A = booster (Prot pally or DK would be my choice)

current acct B > new acct D

Current acct C > new acct E

As long as B + D are in the party, they both get bonus exp.
As long as C + E are in the party, they both get bonus exp.
Party all four together, and all get bonus exp.

This gets you 4x boosties with only 2 new accts. Unless you need 4 new accts to get set up 5 boxing, then Ualaa's way works just the same as this.

As far as class choices, play what you find fun, and spend some time here reading up on which combos seem to work well. I've even made new team combos on the PTR, set up all the macros and ground out a few dungeons to see how the team works before commiting to leveling and gearing a new set of toons.
