Anyone doing 5's without a separate healer? Wondering if it's possible to get to 1500 (enough to get most of the relentless stuff) by myself ... most of the posts I've read are 4boxing + a dedicated healer. Anyone?

That would be tough, but I guess it depends on your battlegroup as well. Even with a dedicated healer you start hitting teams that will gib all your shaman very quickly as low as 1200 rating
Try it and let me know! I am leveling a 5th shaman as we speak for BG and WG ownage. Tired of my paladin standing around looking useless.
never tried.. if ur looking for the stuff on all 5 just swap out guys so they get the same rating.. if ur wanting to to do it by urself just for the ease, then go try it, play like 40 games and see how u do.. i personally have no clue, but probably not as high as u would get with a seperate healer
I'll be farming arenas this weekend (4 ele shams + usually my prot pally that just stands there looking cool or a feral druid friend in crap gear there for the points). So basically alone lol. I'll let you know how we go, we are just looking to get to 1350 so we can buy all the furious pvp tier gear.
I'm not sure exactly when you start losing rating for losses.
I barely nicked a personal/team rating of 800 in 3s........and every game i loose i get negative points.Quote:

Now my gear is not ideal for Arenas, as I'm not gemmed for Res and Stamina and such, but I basically get stomped. I can take out one, maybe two people sometimes, It's pretty brutal, though, as 5 shamans. I have a 5 warlock team, but I obviously won't win anything with them, so I just named their team, "Warlock Dance Club" and let's just say they live up to their name :D
So I'm a bit bummed I won't get the higher level gear, but whatever. It's not worth trying to do 5 different teams, or at least two, and doing twice as many fights, just to do it. I have other things I'd rather work on, like alts, or whatnot.
I can tell you, though, that even with 10 losses a week and a rating of 0, you'll still collect your ~344 arena points a week. So at least you can buy gear for 12k honor and some arena points instead of 49k honor alone. :)
Always look on the bright... side... of life. *whistles* lol :D
what gear can you buy with 12k honor + arena points that doesn't require a rating??Quote:

correct me if i'm wrong, but ALL gear that you can buy with arena points REQUIRES a rating .. so unless you can actually win games, you're wasting time in arena. Seriously, I would love to be wrong here ...
