5xRet Pally = love

hmm. thats a little strange. Nothing has been officially released about judgments not stacking, as i was just a my pallies a few hours prior to this post. All judments were on! However, i have noticed that sometimes , 2-3 of my slaves JOL will not be there on one mob, but on the next one, every JOL is on. Maybe it is a bug as suggested.



Making a vid at the moment to assist in mellee boxing. If you run into anymore problems pm me.



@blaster - what advice do you have on getting from 62-70. right now i am just mactruckin my way through ramps as much as i can. need a little advise as i dont like questing much.

My guild mate did his 5 palies from 60-70 about 90% running outland instances. He only did easy kill quests and some quests associated with the instances he ran. it seemed like he was leveling pretty fast.

I'm pretty sure JoL can be resisted and that's probably what happens. Also could be a lag issue where some of the slaves don't know the main's target yet to assist.

Glad I wasn't going crazy, but sad to see it not stacking anymore

I just wanted to chime in on this thread as I have a 5x Ret Pally team going right now. I hit 35 last night and have done all the Alliance instances thus far, as well as RFK and half of RFD. I haven't played Alliance in a very long time, so that's been an adventure in and of itself.

I started on a fresh server (Azshara), chose PvP, and I have no money or anything to help out. My gear was severely lacking and still is in several spots but the team is just cruising. My only problem thus far is getting the 4x melee in range on hectic pulls. I've honed all my skills thus far on 5x Shaman and 1x Pally/3x Lock/1x Priest teams, so I have the basics. It all definitely changes when they're all melee.

I can't wait to start SM. I think I'm going tonight.

One side note - I sure wish they'd have allowed Exorcism to affect PCs 8) .

If your using focus macros...add "/follow focus" to your main dps macro. This will keep your guys on your main all the time. Keep a copy of your dps macro WITHOUT the /follow in it as well, for times when you want your followers to stay put.

Lyonheart, I'm not using focus this time around, but I did add a /follow <leader> in my /startattack macro. It's working great, so thanks for the tip!

I use ken's mellee macro from the wiki, with a few modifications of my own. When you get to 44 this can be of real help as it has been to me.

/follow focus 
/assist [target=focus, exists] 
/startattack 
/cast Hammer of Wrath 
/stopmacro

I use this with "ever more tedious" hammer of wrath. With 5 pallie wailing away, health percentage drops kind of quick; and its hard to keep track. This way any one of the 4 or 5 hammer of wraths may go off, or maybe all of them will go off. But this has been a great option.

I highly recommend putting the /follow focus after the /startattack or any other attack that breaks follow. The reason being is that there is the potential for the toon to take one more swing and break follow after you've hit your macro, thus potentially slowing down dps and/or losing an alt or two from follow breaking. It's not a huge deal but it can and does happen from time to time.

On another note, not that I recommend relying on this as your main source of getting your toons into range as there will be plenty of mobs in heroics that cannot be stunned, but make a macro

#showtooltip hammer of justice
/use [target=focustarget] hammer of justice

and then just put it on round robin if you use KC. That way if things get really hectic or a mob just will not stand still as occasionally they do, just HoJ them and you will have 6 seconds to easily get your followers in range.
