Is blizzard not feasible as AOE boxer vs AE?

@Yukzor Frost Armor/Ice Armor procs Frostbite, Frostbite targets benefit from Shatter. The hardest part is having your characters all lined up/facing the correct way. I typically will have them follow, use the V formation once I'm ready to drop the kids off so to speak, then move all the mobs to directly in front of the group. I try to get the Frost Nova off where the mobs are out of melee of the mages and still in AoE range, then I get my warrior out of the way as well since he will be low HP by this point.

@nodoze I'm primarily shouting for aggro yeah. I could try to hold onto aggro for longer but tbh the mages just don't die that much and I'm sure I'd lose some dps from less frost bite. I usually don't lose aggro until the mobs are about 40-50%. The huge burst from CoC is high.

OK great. That sounds smart to get into a rhythm like that where at the appropriate point you pull them toward the Mages as that will keep them from doing damage while they try to get to the mages and help spread out the damage and what not when they do (and then die before killing anyone).
