5xRet Pally = love

I recently decieded to get back into multi boxing, after a much needed break from WoW. I was having a problem with choosing the right classes to go with, but i finally made a decision to run with 5 ret pallies after reading the mellee topics on the board.

I would have to say that this is the most fun ive had since ive played wow and started boxing. I cant believe how fast things drop when you are jsut spamming judgements on a mob. And with the 5x JoL, SoL ; you never run out of health. I have been using the RAF 1-60 guide(somewhere on this forum) and in 13 hours managed to get to lvl 36 with only one death.

Did RFC, SFK, BRD each in a matter of minutes, and it was was a breeze. Dont think im every gonna run a caster group again. Maybe il go for 4xWAR and 1xPriest next time.

***Thanks to everyone who posted information on how to boc a mellee group. couldnt have done it without you***

**Also, Thanks to the Creator of the one through 60 guide, it works flawlessly**

just can't wait till my slaves get fully rested up to match up with my main pally that's been parked now for months. all at lvl 24 right now, so i've got a long way to go before i can get to the real fun parts. but been running a priest on main with 3 bm hunters in tow and loving it right now. next melee team will be my warriors and priest as well. no raf left :( but i've never played these classes so i didn't want to skip around on them. don't wanna get burned out too quickly on them.

i once had a similar group, 3x hunters and 1xresto shaman, but that was back when i was 4 boxing. It was a fun group, but it is nothing compared to my pallies.

I would love to see an all warrior group, but im a little confused on how that would play. I mean, would i play a WAR as main and then charge everything. Or would i play the priest as main and then charge everything. Kind of up in the air.

My pally team just dinged 71 yesterday. You might want to think about changing your main to a protection pally and leave the other ret. It would be hard if not impossible to do instances with 5 rets but one of them being protection and you are good as gold. I love my pally team.

btw, i am going to dual spec my main. protection and ret. that way i can change it to ret when i pvp.

I actually didn't bother running my main as prot until dual specs came out. Before that I was actually killing some heroic bosses with 5x ret. Now that I have dual spec though I've killed most of the heroic bosses so far. My gear is still lacking and I don't have but maybe 10 hours a week to play otherwise I would probably have the rest down as well.

Yeah, I love my Pally Team, Wintergrasp is crazy fun. But I've struggled a little with heroic bosses that deal large close range DPS though.

Can anyone help me with some testing on Judgement of Light stacking? I've tested a lot of old world pre-60 dungeons and I could not get the JoL's to stack. However, they would stack on mobs outside of instances. I tried using the exact same gear to not have the possibility of overwriting any of them and it still would not stack.

Can anyone test this in BC and WoTLK instances for me? My pallies aren't high enough yet to test these areas and I'd like to find out the results.

Maybe this was snuck in a recent patch? Seems a bit odd to me...

Thanks!

It looks like that JoL doenst stack anymore, I have tried it in the blasted lands (on those servants mobs who can't die) and when I cast 5 JoL's only 1 stays under monsters portrait for life leech. (5 * Judgement damage though)

Is this an undocumented change?

Boxing 1 Prot pally + 4 Ret Pally's

I asked about this right before WOTLK came out, when I was first experimenting with boxing (my first team was 2x ret pallies). From what I could tell at that point, any stacking of the healing debuff (the debuff that heals you when you hit the mob) is a bug.

Not sure if anything has changed from that point.

hmm. thats a little strange. Nothing has been officially released about judgments not stacking, as i was just a my pallies a few hours prior to this post. All judments were on! However, i have noticed that sometimes , 2-3 of my slaves JOL will not be there on one mob, but on the next one, every JOL is on. Maybe it is a bug as suggested.



Making a vid at the moment to assist in mellee boxing. If you run into anymore problems pm me.
