Ta da... i will hit 70 and start farming (already technically started, made 3k gold on friday)

I already have a 4 shaman team at 25 but with the whole not being able to sell arena points once s4 comes out i'm having second thoughts.

All be it shaman are the best for instances and all that jazz i just dunno what i wanna do.

I already have a 70 lock so i might make 3 more... who knows

opinions please.

PLEASE dont just pick non shaman to have me not be cookie cutter... i want your honest opinion.

PS... i only pvp pretty much

Hunters seem to be very fun in pvp and VERY good.

Balance druids seems to be a nice one aswell, tho not as powerfull as hunters and shamans imo in arena.

But dont you like mages? ;)

Jungle love,

I chose 4 Shamen since you said PVP. Shamen have high armor, fast, powerful heals, instant dmg shocks/interrupts, chain lightning, and most importantly: GROUNDING TOTEMS. "WUTS DAT MEESTAR LOCK? YER DOTS DIDNT LAND? HUH, THATS ODD...OWAIT I HAVE 4 GROUNDING TOTEMS LOLOLOLOL HAW HAW NOW DIE" :P

Definitely go shaman or hunters. I have a team of both but from what I've read and seen here, shaman destroy. I can't wait to PVP with my 5x draenei shaman team.

the only problem with that is the whole pvping to actually get gear to pvp lol

I have beeen playing a hunter for a long time. Now, boxing 5 shammies is fun and forgiving, but I guess hunters would be just as much fun. I picture a wolf, a gorilla, a boar, and a bear tanking multiple mobs and four hunters multi-shotting into the crowds for PvE leveling. With a combination of specs, you could get some nice synergies, too. In PvP, you have traps, feign death, boars, stings, etc. Might be tougher to get good at, but hey no pain no gain.
Vote for hunters.

My opinion... don't roll a new group yet. Or if you NEED to, only play them when they're at 100% rested XP. There is so much to do at lvl 70 to gear up your character and rep grind and pvp, that you should have fun doing that. The game is meant to be played at the highest level. Have some fun! Don't be an ADD altaholic (I used to be).

the only problem with that is the whole pvping to actually get gear to pvp lolI have actually put some thought into that ...basically comes down to DON'T do it at 70
Think I am gonna do it in either the 59's or the 69's That way your not up against stacked resilience but still have pretty much all the "cool toys" to demolish people with.

I'm at ~67.9 and I have considered this approach. I decided against it mostly because 1) I'm in a guild who will give me nearly 100% of Kara drops that I need 2) I won't be able to have fun with anyone else in my guild because they are all lvl 70.

It's all in the eyes of the beholder, but even if it take a little longer to get PVP gear at lvl 70, the amount of fun that I have in BG's and in Kara with my guild more than makes up for it.

For you Gallo that is a good way to do it.

Saddly my main's guild ... dosnt pvp ... dosnt alow alts in any "raid" (let alone rotating 5 of them) and in general unless I am spamming "DPS Button 1" for them in a raid, dont really do anything with them.....

Part of the reason I am raising up 5 shaman... figure if I cant play with my "friends" at least I can play with myself




... That sounds so wrong... I am gonna post it anyway =P

I'd say to you, as you get closer to 70, look for another guild that won't discriminate you because of your 5 characters. Guilds that are starting Kara or that have trouble filling raids sometimes would probably love to have someone with the ability to fill 1-5 DPS slots.

Hunters need to be played well to do well. I play my two 70s a lot, and just with two hunters nothing can get to me alive ( minus shadowstep and feral or warrior charge) I drop anyone. Ive taken T6/S3 warriors out before they knew what hit them. Anything without plate has no chance. SO MORE than 2 hunters? omg! You have to play smart and kill the closest guy to you and change targets fast. But if you in a group of other players..most people die before the realize wtf happened. Its hella fun.

I'm building my shaman/pal team to PvE. Ill level 3 more hunters after that for PvP( their 14 atm. ) Can't wait!
