How's the healing going with yours? And what builds are you using? (BTW, I get "character not found" on your armory links)

Its actually going very well. For 1 year prior to multiboxing, I made a paladin healer, and leveled it in a raiding guild, ran her solo, and did FR raids as one of the guilds top healers. Prior to that, I had a priest healer, and a druid healer.

My setup is:
Heal bound to F1; Shock to F2, Flash heal to F3, Shield to F4 and I have Beacon on a macro for "=" so that when I buff, the Tank gains Righteous Fury, one pally does kings, one pally does might, healer does Beacon macro with SoL.
Grid, with Gridcustomlayouts, (of course)... and the Healers F keys have mouseover macros for those spells. so my mouse doesnt move more than an inch to each member, Fkey, and back to the std DPS1-0 keys for blowin stuff up.


Very nice!

Ty sir. (Side note), I had some dude randomly whisper me and ask me if I was "Sweets" said he ran with "me" in a TB once, ..loved playing along side a boxer. I dont recall his name but the toon was a level 47 warrior.

MiRai and I were looking at this last night, looks like an encoding issue. I updated your toons in your profile and they should be working now.

Interestingly enough, I was "attempted gank" by a 67 Belf DK at the stadium, when I was doing the PVP quest. He died. He came back. Died again. I got my capture, and left. Did the elite boss for Cruel Intentions quest, and was met with the 67 again, he died. Yet, only seconds behind him was an 85 of the same guild. I died x5.

Later still, a huntard (skull) but had to be pre 70, attacked me IN Honor Hold. He died. I lost two. I ran RAMPS again two more times, and it was smooth sailing at level 60. Tonight I am going to do Blood Furnace, and perhaps jet on over to Coilfang.

Level 67 now.

Guild Challenge... BING!

Sethekk was a BREEZE! Only the last boss gave me any guff, but spamming the Follow command got me around the pillar to avoid the AOE blast. Tank N Spank after that single maneuver.

Botanica and Mech.

Alright, End boss in Bot kicked my ass when I tried to utilize a strategy and kill the adds while working down the boss... FAIL! stupid melee group, always stunned, boss healing, and I cant heal up... I decided to brute force it, and he went down faster my sister in high school.

Glad it all worked out in the end. :)

[Apps]

Shadow Labrynth.

alright, so I know hes not the end boss. But the second boss, (Mind Control boss) Blackheart the Inciter... WHAT A PAIN. First, all the group is melee, so when he mind controls everyone, they are all in range of one another, and often decide to pick on the healer. they swap auras, so that makes it very hard to get back once the control is given back... there is the AOE knockback... ugh. Just note-worthy. At least it was for me.

Murmur on the other hand, was a walk in the park. In, boom boom boom, out, in boom boom heal AOE damage, rinse repeat.

I had to go back to Arc to complete the quest chain to enter Arcatraz. I may do the quest chain for Entry into Karazhan, just so I can say I did it. I think there was some really nice EXp. Better get it in now, before I get too far leveling.

Leaving Outlands and hitting up Northrend. This is a little bit more challenging. The bosses arent easy enough to Tank n Spank, as I have been doing up to now. But im learning.

this bitch is pissing me off.

Make sure you occasionally jump on all characters to reset the AoE dot down to one stack. Also face the dragon away from group.

[Bumblebee]

I assume you're aiming to go PvE with this team once it hits 85?

[Ughmahedhurtz]

With pally groups, Keristraza is MUCH easier than casters. Just jump constantly while dpsing, stop long enough to cast a heal if you need to, then continue mimicing a box of mexican jumping beans.

Apps, when I was doing that on my pallies, I would stack the rets to one side of her in melee range (basically on the left edge of that pedestal thingy she's on while frozen), put the prot in front of her in range, then run over and click the last orb with a ret. The prot could quickly get aggro and everyone was already positioned out of the breath and tailswipes. Then just save cooldowns for that last 20% and loot.

[edit] It is somewhat harder now that you can't spam cleanse to clear the root she casts on someone every so often.

This is definitely my problem. That and simply running out of mana to heal. Im excited to pick your brain now that I know you had a pallies team. I do have them positioned as you pointed out. I remembered solo play, so this was the plan all along, and I did also remember the "jump" to keep the dots off. Problem is, Whats the best method to do that? I have been doing is getting into position, then activating the full broadcasting, so that when i spacebar for my tank, they all jump too. but when I heal, they all heal, and I burn through mana far too fast. And if im jumping, and healing, then Im loosing valuable dps. Frustrating.

I did AN last night. Still cant do Nexus. Jeez.

By default, CTRL+Space is mapped to make your slave characters jump.

[Oatboat]

Yeah, or you can just change your keymap to make all jump when hitting spacebar. I did this for battlegrounds to keep alts from going AFK while on follow.

[Ughmahedhurtz]

Set up a key for everyone jump. Mine is spacebar (CTRL+SPACE is only alts jump; think it's ISB default). Or an easier solution might be to add a new keymap for the same button you have for DPS but set it to "on key up/release" and have it spam everyone's jump buttons. You can even set it up in a "Keristraza" keymap so you can disable it for everywhere else. :P

You might also try using seal of wisdom so you have a bunch more mana -- I think that's what I was doing when I first ran it on heroic.

[edit] I ran most heroics in WotLK pre-4.0 on my pally group (except for two of the ICC's and Oculus *shudder*). I'll be happy to tell you what I did for them.

Right, Im using the ISB defaults. the CTRL+Spacebar, then Spacebar, then DPSkeys 1-=, and mouseover heal clicking.. its a lot to do, and be "spamming" jump, to be able to maintain any decent amt of dps. That was the point I was trying to make. my own coordination isnt working well. so your keymap to a "Keristraza" is a great idea.

[Apps]

So anyone have ANY idea why I get Honor Points from completing this dungeon??? Have I just always overlooked this?

Because you were killing bosses as your faction holds Wintergrasp. You used to get shards or whatever they were, we they did the currency revamp at cataclysm they changed it from the currency to regular honor.

[Apps]

Ohhh yeah! man I forgot about that. I havent checked my Honor for any of those toons. I was so preoccupied with getting honored with the guild so i could pick up more heirlooms. I bet I got enough for a pvp piece for each by now.

[Apps]

I need to go back to Nexus and beat that... just for my own satisfaction.

I have an alternate solution - make sure IWT is on and you spam the hell out of it so the run in circles. You won't need to jump since moving clears the debuff. You only need to worry when she freezes the group.

Hmmm... an all pally team :) I likeie

I seem to recall trying that on heroic and getting hit by tail swipes or breath occasionally, which was lethal if that toon then got frozen.

[daanji]

What macro(s) are you using for your retribution pallys?

Aragent's 2-step macros or something different?

[Apps]

I'll log in tonight and get all the macros. I dont use many, since I am using ISBoxer.

[jstanthr]

i would also like to know what macros you are using for your rets? and how do you manage the holypower / templars verdict? or do you even use it?

Thanks in advance.
