Dual boxing on the down low? (PVE raiding)
Does anyone here run 2 characters at once in lower tier raids such as Kara/ZA/Gruul's etc., as well as heroics? I play a shaman main, and thus far all my boxing has been done for fun on the side. I was thinking of rolling up a new duo (or going elemental on the shaman + a character) so I can farm up badges and gear for a new character or 2 without having to run everything twice. Is there a pair that works well for this? I would think mele is out, healing would do doable but not ideal, so that pretty much leaves ranged dps, at least one of which is probably going to be the main for whatever CC ability they have, or at least need some good focus/assist macros. Any ideas?

I bring my 4 Shamans to Kara every week. I do Gruul on 2-4 depending on raid need. I used to quad box them all in SSC and TK, with great success.

this is a WWS report of Lurker death from a while ago, and I had greens still. My guild is new to raiding, so dont mind all the other scrubs but needless to say, 4 totems of wrath = win =) and 4x healing streams means you take almost no damage from the boiling water and can spend the whole fight DPSing hard.
Void Reaver is pretty easy, you just stand with the Melee and Chain Healx4 when you take pounding. you heal yourself and most of the melee too.
Hydross sucks cause you can only really DPS half the fight, but I usually save my Heroisms for that phase and make my Frost tank work for her epix =)
