my pve bad progression

I easily solo'd mana tombs with 5 shamans at 66 so at 68 it should be a cakewalk...

Couple of suggestions (hopefully they haven't already been said)

First totems are important, you should always drop 4x healing 1x mana, 5x totem of wrath, stagger 5x tremor totems on pulls with guys that fear (the nexus terrors), and then 5x grounding on ANY pull with magic users.

I think at 66 using the above totem lists I lost 1 shaman once. Drop an earth elemental totem (or more than 1) on any boss fights you feel iffy about. In mana tombs I dropped 1 EE totem at the first boss, 1 at the second, and 3 on nexus prince, and they were all easy.

As far as trash pulls I don't know what to tell you, they can be tough but the biggest thing is to make sure you DPS everything down super fast, targetting the most dangerous mobs first (for instance ALWAYS kill the priests first as they will AoE you, followed by the guys that use arcane missile, followed by the melee).

Also the single biggest tip to give is to make absolutely SURE all 5 of your shamans have shields. If any of them are using a 2H weapon or not holding a shield they will die, a lot. You're losing about 15% armor mitigation by not holding a shield PLUS removing the ability to block attacks.

Last, make sure to heal properly. The main healing I do on trash pulls is chain heal, I have all 5 of my shamans using a chain heal macro that attempts to cast chain heal on the next shaman down the list, but if hes dead then that shaman just casts it on herself instead. On pulls of 4-5 mobs I will kill 1-2 and by then I will need to spam 1-2 chain heals, then I can finish taking down the rest of the mobs.

As far as pulling goes, switching targets fast helps a lot, and making sure to pull properly helps a lot too. What I do is pick the mob I'm going to pull (usually a magic user). Start spamming LB, then as soon as it starts casting start spamming my CL key, then as soon as that starts casting spam one more LB, usually by then the mob is either dead or if not then the LB will kill him, so while I'm still in the process of casting LB I click to a new mob (preferably one that was hit by CL) and start spamming the LB key on that one. Usually this way I can kill 2 mobs before they even reach me.

Hopefully all that helps quite a bit...it takes quite a bit of coordination to multibox and (in instances) its definitely harder than singleboxing, so keep practicing.!

Another thing look at your defense rating. That normally sucks after leveling quickly. I go to a lowbie area and aggro low mobs to just beat on my for an hour or so. That should help a lot if your current defense is low.
