thoughts on best healer for 4x DK

I'm planning on rolling 4 DKs when WoLK comes out, but I don't have any healers anywhere. Any thoughts? I'm thinking holy priest. I'll main the priest and run the DKs on the other box.

with so little information on the class changes or how dks will work i think its nearly impossible to say which class will be the best healer.

my guess is resto shaman tho

but thats all it is atm anyones guess as to what class will be the best

I am really liking my resto shaman. She has really big heals when I need them, earth shield is simply awesome, mana tide totem is sweet, and heroism!

If you haven't played 4 melees I'd suggest creating 4 warriors/pallys to see if you like the play style. I play two, and I believe more are possible. But it's a royal pain in the arse. And DKs are going to be melee heavy, most likely applying their DoTs via a melee attack.

Taking only lvl 70 into account I'd say shaman due to:
rez
good single target heals
good multi target heals
but most importantly WINDFURY

I have not played 4 melees. I have been leveling up my warrior, rogue, and warlock together (they are level 63), so that's two melee, and sometimes throw my 70 hunter into the mix for bosses. Since I need a healer anyway for this group, a resto shaman might be the way to go then.

Thanks!

Chain heal is full of multiboxing win.

I would agree with Shaman having a slight edge over the Priest due to the nice totem buffs. Otherwise though, Holy priest and their group heals are nice and probably easier to box if you set a DK as the main character.

I think you mean box, as most of us hate the term bot for multiboxer :D

Edited, thanks. I've been multi-boxing since EQ was released...no bad intentions :D
