Hey there,

Okay so I'm not 80 yet, in fact I just hit 75 today (http://wtbblue.com guides rock at helping me lvl). So far I feel extremely powerful. I can take on multiple geared 80s at once w/o a sweat in world PVP. *blush* I even spent 30 minutes camping a group of 77s for a load of fun

For heroics, I'm not sure as I'm not 80 yet. However, I fully expect it to be possible. If the instance mechanics allow for multiboxing (as in, character placement isn't too difficult, nothing funky required), then 5x druids should easily be able to do heroics. Right now I'm doing normal instances easy w/o a tank. 5x Boomkins have such ginormous DPS and armor that a real tank isn't required at all. For example, in Utgarde Keep, I can clear the instance without getting hit at all except for the bosses. When I get to a boss fight, I simply dump a billion HOT heals on my lead guy, and let him attack first to get aggro, and then balls to walls DPS. Boss fights typically last seconds. One key thing to know is that aggro is NEVER a problem as long as your lead guy has more +spelldmg and you let him get a spell or 2 off first.

For arenas, I don't know. I actually just hit 70 right before wotlk came out so not sure. I do know that I steamroll every battleground ezsauce. Every 5box shaman (or 4xsham 1xpally) team I ran into on BGs I would blow them out of the water hardcore.

Read this: 5x Typhoons will kill everything in its path 90% of the time in a HUGE cone shape 30+ yard path.

This means my opening move in PVP is quite often my only move against same-level people. I can wipe out 5-20 people in 1 move. Right now 5x typhoons does about 12k of damage. My characters have 11k of health each. All of my druids themselves would die in a split second, just like how I do to others. I compare this to chain lightning. Chain has a lower cooldown, however, typhoon can insta kill everything in its path. Plus the knockback is PWN!!

Also, 5x druids are IMMENSELY fun due to the fact they can stealth. Stealthing opens up a new aspect to this game and gives you a new way to be sneaky and PWN the crap out of people.

You ask me about arenas? I'm not sure to be honest how it would go. I believe 5x druids have the tools to be unstoppable in areans. The trick is learning how to use them. 5x druids have these key skills:

---5x Typhoon - Will do IMMENSE damage and possibly end the game right on the spot.
---15 Trees - People sometimes forget about trees and boomkins. 15 trees can kill a paladin in about 3-4 second. 15 trees will kill cloth in an INSTANT. Literally, the clothie will go from 100% to 0% instantly in a burst if "WTF HAPPENED".
---5x Insect Swarm - Instant cast dot that, at level 75, does around 18,000 damage.
--- 5x Moonfire Spam - Moonfire by itself is sorta blah. When you can do 5x at 1 keystroke it becomes an IMMENSE force
--- ZOMG WTF HEAL ABILITY - 5x Boomkins have AMAZING heal ability. With 1 button you can toss HOTs on a guy giving them literally 5,000 health/second

Basically 5x boomkins have all the tools to dominate every scenario. The only iffy part is they can't deal with fear as well as shams :P
