5 Box team combo

[Avatarxx]

Currently I have an 80 resto druid, 74 ret pally, 70 frost mage (should not take more than a few days to get pally/mage to 80 so assume they already are). The resto druid is currently my guilds main healer (small guild), he wil also dual spec resto/feral when that becomes available. I would really like to NOT duplicate a class in my 5 box team, just seems more interesting not to do so, though I know a lot of you enjoy/swear by your 1 tank 4 shammy etc teams. However if muli-box group effectiveness just isn't possible etc please don't hesitate to make a duplicate suggestion.

5 boxing heroics is a goal, mostly for amusement

I would like to fill in 2 other spaces when we begin 10 man's with the guild--again the resto druid has to stay ( I was thinking 2 other dps classes or even bringing along another dps class + maybe a priest as another healer)

Would love to dual box 2v2 arena's so suggestion's there would be great

P.S. Love the site and has been very helpful making my transition from EQ-WoW lol thanks!

Warlock and priest probably

I currently am running the pally/shamanx3/priest team and there great. I have also ran pally/shaman/druid/mage/priest team which actually will be leveled once the others are at 80 currently 74-76, now if you want to keep the druid as a healer then you have to tank with the pally so you can either throw in a shaman or a boomkin or since you are filling in for a 5 man then you can just do both of them, now I don't recall which or the buffs dont stack just that if it is similar the one with higher stats is what you will get. Now a priest is nice to have as well for his buffs I like my priest quite a bit other than he's all screwed up right now, but he has no issue keeping me up if he stays alive. Again since you want to keep your druid resto then no need to get a priest since it would be a waste probably go with first option of druid and shaman for your other 2.

Thoughts of others?

The problem I see with a lock/priest combo is that you would be dealing with dots and those other spells they got, which I do not think fit well with the mage in there unless you drop the mage and do 2 locks and a SP then you have similar spells and will probably work good together. Problem still arises in that if you want to do healing with the SP then you have to go out of shadow and do them, not so with the shaman you dont have to worry about that at all, the boomkin would have the same issue you have to go out of boomkin in order to heal, now you can skip the boomkin and put your talents else where and still dps on druid and not have an issue trying to heal.
