Team just dinged 80 - Where to begin?

[Shonkey]

Slats,

I would suggest you run Dailys and use that cash to Buy BoE gear so you can do the Heroics. So much good gear on the AH that you can get in order to increase your dps.

To answer some of your questions.

* What is considered the standard Ele Shaman boxing spec for PvE?

* Which Heroics are considered the most boxer friendly and 'easiest' to farm for badges at the beginning?

Imo this is the order for easiest to hardest. (Number represents the badges)

Gundrak (5)
Drak'Tharon Keep (4)
Violet Hold (3)

I couldn`t clear any heroic when I dinged 80 on my paladin + 4 elementals. I went and respecced one resto and I cleared them all in a row. A resto shaman makes your live so much easier.

To start I gemmed/enchanted him in intellect to boost his mana untill he got better gear. Having a big mana pool helps when the shamans ain`t high dps yet.
