Healer piloted teams

Hello,

Thinking of doing this in Shadowlands. The idea of Torghast really interests me. I have not played WoD/Legion and a very tiny amount of BFA. I like this idea of the BM Hunters and the versatility of the Pets and Families and rotating the abilities.

So far the Hunters seem prety set in stone and various thoughts between Shaman/Druid/Pally being thrown about for Healer. Has anyone tried out their teams in the Beta? What tank is best for boxing? What ahs the easiest rotation, easiest survivability?

Is their benefit to running a team that wears all the same armour type (Leather?) in Dungeon content? Can they share the gear between them? I understand ML is gone and now randomly personal loot assigns an item to someone in the team.

Essentially I would like to play where I hit a key for single target DPS/tanking, another for aoe and flick between Tank/Healer driving depending on the fights. Clickthrough healing using ISBoxer.

Ellay seems to prefer Shaman over Druid in his videos but I'm not sure why other than personal preference.

You should first watch the video in the initial post at the top of this thread and then read the full thread as it answers most of your questions:

https://www.dual-boxing.com/threads/...-Hunter-Healer

In the video he makes a very compelling case for 3 Spirit Beasts.

Regarding Shaman, it is pretty great for a multiboxer to be able to leverage the Artificial Intelligence built into Chain Healing's additional targets as well as Chain Lighting and things like Tremor Totems. Druid is considered the superior healer for SL in large part as it can fully heal on the move while the Shaman does have to stop for things like Chain Heal but getting HoTs to fully roll on all needed targets and losing the AI assistance that Shaman brings hurts (especially for many multi-boxers). Ellay likely touched on more benefits with more eloquence (it has been awhile since I watched the video) but those are the things that distinguish Shaman the most for multiboxing to me.

Beta testing of both Tanks & Healers and their relative pros/cons for that team complement are also discussed in that thread and it includes some links to videos (though things do keep getting tweaked/balanced)...

After reviewing the thread I would then recommend you post what questions remain unanswered to the end of that thread as this thread is more on best teams to drive from a healer (there are multiple options) and that other thread I linked is actually focused on 3 BM Hunters + Tank + Healer...
