Pally is my alt and has t6/badges stuff, Phien is my main, she has pretty much all best in slot/sunwell gear(just so happens that ele shaman is my main :P), 3 of the shamans have full badge gear with some random kara/za stuff.

Very nice! I tried this last night with 5 shamans. Trash was very easy, but it looks like a tank might be necessary for the bosses, was only able to get attumen and moroes down to about 40% with an all out zerg and no strategy.

Gratz Niley, awesome work mate!

If you have time I'd like you to tell a bit about your aggro cycle/macros with the Pala as it may differ from other posters and all experience sharing is welcome.

Also, how do you handle it? One button spam for both dps/tanking? Using ,,,,, for aggro opening?

Thank you and bravo again!

So here is the question. If you can 5 man it with one pally and 4 shaman. Can I ten man it with 2 5boxers groups. That is the plan this weekend. To take a shot at it and see how far we get.

Tuesday a guild group got together and did kara. They said they killed attune in 43 seconds. I am not sure if this was just when he was together with his horse or what. But if this is true I think 10 dps should be able to do it easy.

OK went in to kara with 10 shaman. We killed attune/Morros/Big bad wolf/curator/shade/ilhoof/chess. I think a couple more attempts we would have gotten maiden down but we decided to call it. We got Prince to 50%. I think if the other 5 boxer I was running with was a geared as I was we just might be able to kill him if we were lucky. Too tired to type up a whole report on it right now. But I am very happy with what we did tonight.

I actually have everything separate, I also use lb/cl combo on my shamans, so basicallly if You would see me boxing, it looks like drunk dude playing a piano, Im pressing 3-4 buttons at a time every second :P This also lets me choose what ability i can use, unlike one macro would, also makes it harder which equals more fun!
My opener looks like this avenger shield->consecrate(i have 10s glyph, and do this before the mob gets to me)->Judge wisdom->hammer of the righteous
Now lately Ive been having fun with seals, also noticed that this way i can get my tps at 2k level, I use Seal of Vengeance at the start, let it stack 5 times(judge it too of course), then switch to Seal of Righteousness, before 15s runs out re seal Vengeance(quartz buff bars really help with this), now add to that shaman management, regular tanking rotation, heals, watching whats going on around You etc etc, makes this game way more fun then any single boxer could have :P

Sounds awesome! Some of those mobs hit pretty hard, Im quite surprised that You guys made that far, very nice job.

How did you do chess? pre 3.0 I tried chess once solo (the group I was with stopped at aran after wiping a lot, so I went in afterwards and solo cleared to chess) and just could not do it. If I controlled the king one one char and the healer on the other, Medivh would "cheat" too much and just burn my chars in fires before I could move em out (ie healers would die and then my king was sol). I didn't have much coordination luck controlling more than 2 chars, would just get crazy tabbing around and clicking stuff, lol

Cleared everything sans dragons and aran on 4 shami + pala team yesterday, and chess is definitely the most difficult boss to box. After about 5 or 6 tries I was successful with the following strategy:

I'd simply move a few pawns one field forward, so I could move the healers in case medivh cheated. I'd then simply hope (yea, rng ftw) for him to bring his king forward a little bit. If he does that you can simply start shooting with your caster figure on the king. I didn't even move my king, only moved a few pawns and the healers. Things do get interesting though, because if you do it like that you'll have to switch figures quite often, and thus cancel buffs / run to the new figure with some chars.

I might just have gotten lucky though, this fight really sucks. After this epic battle prince really was a pushover (pally tanked prince while standing in the hellfire of one daemon, and healing wasn't all that difficult).

I'd love to hear about a good strategy for aran though. I got killed _really_ fast in there. Groundings don't work, and he'd quite often cast 3 times in a row on the same char, which will gib him pretty fast ;(
Also, with just one healer if he gets chain of ice it's pretty much an instant wipe for me (don't have any pvp gear, my chars are all sub 8k health).

Aw, have some fun in there, some fights are really hilarious after 3.0
