Why are Shaman so popular for multi-boxing?
I was wondering if someone could explain to me (with some detail and examples) why Shaman seem to be so popular for multi-boxing. I see a lot of refrences to either 5-man shaman teams or 1 pally/4 shaman teams. I tried out a shaman once (only to level 10 though and I was solo, not multi-boxing) but I didn't care for it.
Thanks!
very flexible class that brings a lot to the table. nice buffs. pretty nice party heals. wears mail so a little more survivability. just an all around sweet class imho.
also totems are pretty
seems like people have also been rocking all druid and pally teams a lot lately too with i think great success.

Shamans are not really fun to play until 70+ when you start getting the gear.
They have a lot of abilities / spells that work well together when stacked and make them more multiboxing friendly.

I like thier survivability and the fact that they have a good ranged attack. Also if you ever want to not multibox and remmeber why you started most parties I have played with like having shammies in thier groups

When starting MB'ing, it is easier to have as many of the same class as possible to ease the setup of macros and spell casting sequences. Shaman are one of the hybrid classes that bring a lot to the table from the standpoint of doing a lot of things well (healing, DPS and even some tanking). Druids are a close second, but the whole shapeshifting thing gets a little inconvenient when you can't cast healing spells in Moonkin form and so forth, at least for me.

Survivability, ease of quality castsequence dps, and by far the best synergy of running 4x of the same class. Additional bonus of being able to use most non-plate drops.

Why has no one mentioned Bloodlust? Huge damage increase on every boss encounter? Yes please!
