Gotcha. About what I figured would have to be going on to make it useful in a timely manner. Just making sure I wasn't missing some new bit of ISBoxer wisdom. ;)

I am using a mashable key, and a charge macro in that key thats it.
Single target:

AoE:

Is it the most optimal way of doing it? Most likely not, but it is simple as hell.
My multipurpose charge macro I have on my AoE key
/cast [stance:3, nocombat] Battle Stance; [stance:3, combat] Intercept
/castsequence [stance:1, nocombat] reset=combat Charge, Sweeping Strikes; [combat] reset=combat Sweeping Strikes, Berserker Stance
And for single target
/cast [stance:3, nocombat] Battle Stance; [stance:3, combat] Intercept
/castsequence [stance:1, nocombat] reset=combat Charge; [combat] reset=combat Berserker Stance
Charge and Berserker stance is in castsequence as I've played around with Rending before changing stance, doesn't seem worth.
Whirlwind
/cast [combat] Whirlwind
Bloodrage
/cast [combat] Bloodrage
If Sweeping strikes is on cooldown and I want to use AoE, I simply click once on my single target key and they'll change to berserker stance and I can continue my AoE, this could be done with a Berserker stance binding aswell I guess.
I still cant get over how helpful you actually are! Once again, amazing!
Yeah exactly what it does, and yes R is my IWT.
The multiple executes might be a leftover from back in cata(wotlk?).
I think it was Mosg2 that made the spambar or popularized it, I copied it and the multiple keys on one was something that was used as a priority system, if it works like that now or then, I don't know.
One of the isboxer wizards should know :D
I setup overpower macros via weakauras with a click bar.
Stratholme Living, some sketchy moments and some deaths.

I need to make a rage dump key/clickbar because I can see im wasting rage on bosses.
The way I setup overpower/heroic strike, was an overlay bar, with weakauras. I basically aligned colored squares that indicate certain conditions with hotkey positions, so when clicking on that square, it was in a repeater region, where the other warriors had a hotbar where specific macros were placed.
AKA, enemy dodges Warrior 2, Warrior 2 has Rage > 30, a pale green square appears, I click it, it dumps rage into heroic strike. Once the rage is equal or less than 30, a yellow square appears. I click that, and its a battle stance + overpower macro.
Set that up for all your warriors, and you can now start to manage overpower for all your warriors individually. You could do the same for revenge, or for your rage dumps. You could of course bind those to hotkeys, but I've set mine up to operate with a click bar that is overlaid by a weakaura set. Click the weakaura, minions click the actual abilities.
Nice! Good to see a run with some bumps and bruises.
I updated the Initial Post at the top of the thread.
Please everyone also post your Warrior and Healer specs to this thread if they differ from the ones already listed and I will put them in the initial post (citing credit like I did for Quiding's builds).
Please everyone lets get some additional boxed melee-cleave videos posted... Would like to list some videos with different healers than Shaman and/or with dual-healers as well and want examples from all the end game dungeons...
Hey everyone,
It's been a while since I last posted but I'm also boxing 4 warriors and resto shaman, having a blast with it beside world pvp and facing mages all the time :D
I didn't upload anything over YouTube yet but I have been streaming the last couple of days on twitch doing mostly LBRS trash farm and lately stick to Stratholme Living orb farming after giving it a try and having better and better runs.
My last session of today: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/511680176
Shaman Build: https://classic.wowhead.com/talent-c...05135050005014 (I was playing deep resto build untill yesterday where I respec Improved Windfury Totem after getting my 5 set t1 on shaman and my clear time has improved to 28-30 min per run if all goes well or with 1-2 deaths max)
Warrior Builds are 31/20/0 with Axe Spec and having them spec 1 Improved BS, Improved Demo and Piercing Howl.
Currently farming to craft 2 more Arcanite Reaper's then I'm pretty much done gearing, going to craft 1 by the end of this day so tomorrow I should be done with it, wish I have started with Startholme farm earlier as I would've been stacked long time ago.
I'm using @Quiding setup which he shared with me so pretty much everything is the same, added 1 extra rotation for PvP that includes hamstring and MS before WW. Pummel on Round-Robin and AoE Taunt Round-Robin aswell.
I've tried both 2h and dual wield fury aswell, even with Felstriker it wasn't as good as Arms in dungeons.
I try to stream daily or atleast every second day, will be doing some UBRS runs together with guild later on today to finish my Onyxia questline as I've been slacking with it and also help gear up some guildies alts.
Best Regards

Thanks for sharing!
I posted your Shaman build to the initial post at the top of thread and I also added a recommended shaman build for Melee cleave teams from wowhead. I will also put your recommended warrior build(s) if you provide a link.
I am leery to link to twitch videos as they seem to disappear after a bit and then we have dead links. Please send links if you upload some dedicated to specific dungeons to youtube.
Thanks again!

I hope BC comes to classic..i want to do shamy+4 warriors.. but I will never go back to the dark side!
Yeah my favorite team was 10 shaman (Alliance) for PVP and PaladinTank+4-9Shaman for PVE.
My hope is that they create all new servers for BC and let us choose to move up to the BC servers (or not). Even better would be to have the option to copy our Classic 60s to a new BC server yet still be able to play them on the Classic server...
If they want to keep server identities they could go 'Herod Classic' -> 'Herod BC' or what not...
Something like that could allow folk to both have their cake and eat it too...
Finally got around to making a weakaura bar for sweeping/heroic/cleave/overpower. Heroic/cleave will only light up when mortal strike and ww is on cd and above 30 rage, tried playing around with it not showing up when ms+ww is x amount of seconds away from being off cd, but I couldn't get it to work.

WA Warr
How are yall gearing out your warriors? Most of the pre-Raid BIS guides show a lot of Leather pieces....
I really appreciate all this content! It's helped me get a melee team started. I mainly play alliance -- and am curious if Pali + 4 War is viable for 60 dungeons. How much is this team WF dependant or multi-target heal dependant?
Guys, why are you all using mortal strike? What is advantage over slam?
At max lvl:
Slam: swing + 85 dmg for 15 rage.
MS: swing + 160 dmg for 30 rage.
You can do + 10 dmg and + 1 swing damage, if spend 30 rage to slam, comparing MS. With slow weapon this is a huge difference.
Yep, slam is casting, but...
In any case, with the focus of a single target, you spend all your rage. Instant cast is important in pvp, but in pve it does not cause problems. Especially in a long fight.
Anyone get their team Unstoppable Force yet? The ring is spicy too. I'm in the home stretch at about 5/21k
I could see this weapon pushing warrior comps to the absolute top. It sucks that you basically have to troll your faction to farm it on 5x accounts though...
I feel bad, I've already quasi played 5 at same time to exalted.
I'm already exalted with 3 of my chars and last 2 are missing 1-2k more rep I couldn't be bothered to finish it last night so I just gave up and about to finish it in a second :D then I will buy TUF all at once and go do some testing but I belive it will be way better than x4 Arcanite Reaper.
Also the grind is pretty much just AFK run into a wall and then watch your favourite series. Just keep an eye on your clients and jump every once in a while so u dont get AFK deubff and kicked, I did get voted for afk maybe a total of 5-6 times over the last 3 days since it started.
Funny how doing shit like that is suddenly okey... disgusting behaviour that should be bannable imo.
you dont really have to/should not afk your way through exaltet, I run into bunkers and defend, you will rarely have multiple fights across different clients at the same time as towers are low priority. You can also suicide into the opposing raid at the beginning spamming howl/fear which is actually super good in the current 6 minute game meta.
that way your group spot is more justified than the people grinding field of strife the whole game
AV rep first
i dont think he's in the same AV with all toons, that would be quite stupid :D. I honestly doubt blizzard does anything against non botted afking in BGs unless the whole raid reports you (not meant to encourage it). And to be fair, I'd rather take the afk guy over that one ahole which taps snowfall every game, ruining the game for 39 others.
I have been matched maybe once with 1 of my others toons in same bg and dodged that with the other one. Also its not like im the only one doing this, people even do finishing inside AV and there is always 5-10 ppl afk every game. I'm not using any anti AFK software/macros or such thing. I'm at/near PC always while playing so I don't really see a problem, but u can have ur opinion.
EDIT: since we are going off topic, did some testing in stratholme with x4 TUF and mace spec on all, I can see a DPS increase over Arcanite Reaper by 20-30 overall after a complete run. Also there is less healing since u constantly stun the mobs.
How many AV rep u can get from every single BG? And what is average lenght of fights?
Im still arms spec, from the emperor axe i can see a 15-20 dps increase with unstoppable force and thats still 30 dps lower than the warrior with spinal reaper. So its certainly worth to farm but on the long run I'd got for one of the rag weapons. In absolute numbers, mace wars are around 320 dps and spinal 350, averaged over 2 strat living runs.
