I am about to start a two box team but am a little undecided on classes.

I think for a 2 box team a tank/healer setup could work to my favor as dps are a dime a dozen and tanks and healers are always wanted. I havent decided if I want to go pally/shaman (ret + wf = ouch) and with anhk and both toons being able to heal and rez would make things fairly easy. My other option is druid/druid. Bear and tree (dual boomkin to level i think) could be successful but I really think that druid healing leaves a little to be desired when things go bad and the res CD kinda sucks, and they will be fighting for gear as they level.

My major issue with the paladin/shaman thing is if i go horde (which is prefered) I am stuck with some orlando bloom looking sissy belf. and if i go alliance (would prefer not to) I have to have a squid faced cthulu looking thing following me around.

The druid/druid team is appealing for stealth boss runs though :D



any ideas or suggestions?

any ideas or suggestions?There's a sticky in the newbie forum that lists all of the possible duo combinations, you should go check it out! Lots of great info there!

Thanks for pointing out the sticky. Turns out I was well aware of it and have read it a on several occasions. I was ultimately more interested in perhaps a reply from someone who has tried both of these combinations personally and found one of them lacking or excelling in one area or another. But it turns out that pointing out the sticky was more than adequate. Sorry to have wasted the bandwith.

I'm dualboxing, so I'll add some thoughts tomorrow, right ow I gotta get some sleep.
