They are great and rather easy to play compared with warlocks shamans who have 15 spells to worry about. Facerolling ftw. Hard to tell in BGs cause I've always got 12 people dpsing my main pally down so fast, but they do great dps. Gonna try to do some PTR 5v5s today and see if we can practice a bit.

I think I'll make a rogue team and start testing the ability to stealth > 1shot someone.

Edit: the nice thing about the PTRs - everyone is full 1100 resilience geared, so you don't accidently get a false sense of security by 1 shotting scrubs on live realms.

Opinion on 4-5 DK's with any spec as well. Interested to hear how they do with full gear.

Ok I might do that for my 4th team.

alright 4 Enhancement Shamans, reviewing it with Mythaniel and it seems like it would work out well, the only issue is possibly not enough passive healing. I think not having a Judgement of Light might do it in. Anyone else think their healing is enough? The wolves do passive healing for 45 seconds while they are out, your burst is insane, you have added protection from the grounding totems. Multiple fear breaks, some instant to close to instant healing via Maelstrom weapon. Shamanistic rage provides 30% reduced damage...

With the 10% ap you gain, you can grab Hungering Cold for the main DK for another aoe cc.
Throwing down Earthbinds is group freedom everytime you drop one and the snares from Frostshock is huge, if they are 15 yards or more away it's a 5 second root.

Someone try 4 Enhance Shammies!

The wolves will be able to lock down a target with the stun as well. I'd guess you can try 1-2 targets within the time frame that they are up, Constant purge will drop the BoP's so no need for target switching, the only lacking part the combo has is possible not enough passive and active healing to keep yourself up.

I would still run 4x enhancement with a healer, and ya it does sound really really stupid good. I'm out of character premades on PTR tho /cry.

Downloading now. I've copied over Druids. Once I've tried them I'll give the DK's a shot.

You can look at it this way, if you dont win by the time BL/wolves go down you are going to lose. ;p
