4x Shaman 1x Death Knight

or.. shamans stationary.. run out with your DK.. freeze em and dps.. then if someone runs towards the clones.. deathgrip and burst him/her down

But think if the other team has a dk :cursing: . They could pull your clone or main to team and dps the hell out of you. Think about 1 dk and 4 rogue combo. DK pull the healer to them and then dps the hell out of the heal, vanish and repeat.

Since deathgrip is a single target spell, grounding totem should eat it.

I was also thinking the DK deathgrip to the shaman would be for those teams that LOS for a while at the beginning of the match. If one sticks his head out, boom he is now across the areana eating lightning bolts with the rest of his team still LOS.

I was thinking how funny its going to be watching the tug of war between a dk and a lock where the dk uses deathgrip to pull a lock to them, then the lock uses demonic circle to port back to the spot he got yanked from With deathgrip, demonic circle, blink, thunderstorm, w/e toons are going to be bouncing around arenas like a ping pong ball in an empty trailor.

what i would love to see is have a couple shams one on each side of a toon and have them use the aoe to bounce the person back and forth... might have to do it in an arena setting where everyone is against you but the people you are teamed with.

Whatever spec the DK is, they will be acceptable tanks for 5-man content.

My question is about the amount of micromanagement in order to do the job. Pali tanks are easy for boxers because of their aoe tanking abilities with consecration, as apposed to all the button pushing you have to do with a war to control multiple mobs and keep them off your clones. So can you expound a little more along these lines, will a dk be closer to having the pali aoe type tanking, or the war type of tanking abilities?

It's classified as "physical", so I'd guess it's like taunt and a grounding totem wouldn't do anything.
