Elemental x5. If anything gets to you (that isn't elite) before you kill it, you're doing something wrong :_D
Swapping your main for a tank wouldn't be a bad idea imo.
My advise is to use a Pal or DK tank, and 4 ele shaman, but I'm like level 20 or so.
I second the thought on 5 ele from the start. If you plan on being elemental at 80 then leveling that way would be good practice. While leveling in the old old world pick up anything that has +spell power on it be it leather or cloth. As long as you have a shield equipped you should be good. Once you get to outlands you will have a chance to upgrade all your stuff to +spell power mail which is really nice.
Five shammies -- definitely elemental. Although since xpac came out, I'm replacing my 'main' shammy with my new DK on the same account to see how that works.
Thanks guys, am just starting am busy at the moment. So Shammies all are lvl 6 so wanted to know what to spec. Thanks for the info guys.
Honestly the way that WOTLK is currently, leveling up wise and the way that instances currently appear: I would strongly suggest you to roll something with a tank and healer.
You will also likely want something that gives the COE type debuff in a 3-5 magic user group, COE/Moonkin/DK.
Personally I would do:
Paladin
Moonkin (COE Effect)
Mage
Mage
Restoshaman (Bloodlust - also can lightning bolt ect)
for instances today.
For pvp, probably still 4 shamans/moonkin
I really wish I can 5 box different classes, but as of now, I really cant. I think learning the basic of boxing Shammies may one day let me do more class but I feel now I cant do it yet. I have no so much time to learn as have family and work to manage. :D
Has any 5 box team hit 80 yet? I don't think it is safe to say 5 shaman are dead or alive at this point. I would think most of the problems any group encounters has to do with the clumsly mobilty of all the toons. Which isn't going to go away magically if you add a tank and a healer. Long story short don't count out teams that haven't even had a chance yet.Quote:

You need a tank, why would you need a healer with shamen, they can heal a lot can't they? The big edge of the class is they are good dps and good healing. You cast chain heal on the main tank and then it heals those who are low health of the shaman what more could you ask for?
If you multiple classes you have to pick classes that have one super spell that is the best at what they do not "do it all" class like shaman. Causse you will use the best spell most all of the time.
Shaman are just to good though wtih the chain heal and the solid dps of CL or the burst damange of the lava spell. I mean:
Good Healing
Good Burst Damage
Good long term Damage
Not Cloth
Rez
Some CC (hex)
AND THUNDERSTORM! And Tarun is WS also!
I mean really ...
