New to MB thinking of starting a Druid, Sham, Lock, Mage Team

Hello all,

I am new to the multiboxing scene. I am looking to start a Druid, Sham, Lock, Mage team. How hard would this be to setup. I also would like to do the dynamic formation.

Thanks in advance.

I am using ISBoxer.

I run this exact team with a pally:

pally prot
shaman elemental
lock destro
druid resto
Mage arcane

My learnings for PvE:
I've tried healing with shammy and preferred the druid HoT method (+ boomkin didn't really work, shaman dps>druid
I've tried mage fire & frost and much prefer arcane
I've tried cat + enh shaman + retrib pally and it's great for quests (especially with pally in prot gear) but too many things to think about and dps wasn't great. If you plan on this you can play with the action target groups +IwT
I LOVE destro lock, almost as much fun as charlie hehe

All in all, a fun makeup, especially with portals/summons/drink.

I can't advise on PvP as a) I'm rubbish at it and b) I'm rubbish at it.

Can I ask why you're going with 4 and not 5? You could add in a tank and do instances?

i am going to have an 80 friend boost me through dungeons is the reason for 4 and not 5. Thank You for the information i was going to run a resto druid, ele sham, arcan mage, and destro lock.

It is a fair bit harder to do all different classes than just 1 or 2 types when starting out boxing. All doable tho.

if you've already played these classes individually and know how they work, then creating the relevant macros will not be a problem, just a bit time consuming.

I'm running a mixed team (paly/druid/mage/shaman/priest) and have no issue with it, but the initial time to set it up was a bit longer than running 4 of the same obviously

There's a bit of ongoing time dealing with multi class, working out quest rewards, gear, specs, modify macros every time u want to use new levels etc. As Zub says it's much easier if u know the classes already.

Worth doing if u want that team anyway :)

My first/current team I'm leveling is three types of classes. Tried 5 but decided it was a bit much to deal with on my first 5 boxing team and that other teams could be the other classes I wanted. I dropped the two classes I didn't know hardly at all (lock/hunter).

As many of the above posters stated having mixed classes is harder to control than having all of the same class due to the macro and spell timing (life refreshing dots). I have two teams. One mixed like in the sig (Paladin, magex2, shaman, priest) and one I play with my friend (War 3xshaman, my friend plays healer as a druid).
