Hey all!

I currently have a 5-man shaman team that is about to hit level 60 (58.8 right now) and I'm looking to setup my next step. Ultimately, my goal is to have a 1x -Pally/4x-Shaman team so I can do instances/heroics/etc without having to put a team together. I have a level 30 Paladin that I will be gifting to 60 very soon.

I've never had a char higher than 60, so I don't know anything about the content from 60-80 and the fastest way to get to 80.

So my question to you multi-boxing experts is do I:

A) Continue to play the 5-man shaman team and get them to 80, then boost the Paladin to 80

- OR -

B) Start using the Paladin at level 60 with my 4 Shaman?

Also, from what I've read, I know I will eventually need one of my Shaman to be Resto (they are all Elemental right now). When will I need to make that change-over?

TIA!
