3 Balance Druids?

[Arcnail]

Nice, thanks for the info all.

What I'll probably do is level a pally as master, and 2 rogues as main. That way I can heal the rogues when I need, faster mount speed and some buffs.

Then when I get to around level 70, I'll swap my pally for a level 72 rogue I have parked and level 3 rogues.

They will have the element of surprise I'm looking for to help get myself into the arena game.. and good burst as well.

Just waiting on my trial info for ISBoxer there so I can test out the plan.

I certainly don't want to dissuade you, but you're picking one of the harder comps as your first group. As long as you're patient I'm sure you'll get everything working well.

Hehe.. ya eh?

Hmm.. well I know I don't want to run shammies although they are apparently the king of multiboxing. Watched some videos and just didn't click with me.

As per the title, I had thought trying out 3 Balance druids (never played them), but word is no real burst so that's out.

I thought maybe 3 pallies (never played them), as I could potentially tank/dps/heal combo with them PvE wise. Watched that arena video in the movies section there where they owned, however the druid they killed right away apparently had no resil, and I don't know if I would like the strat of just running in on horses and trying to dps a target down asap.

So I gravitated to rogues where yes, I'm melee and it'll be harder for a nub like me then a caster would starting out, however I think that with patience like you mentioned I'll get the hang of it. I just think that ability to assess a given pvp (bg, open world, arena) situation while in stealth will be valuable not only learning about mulitboxing a bit better, but pvp as well.

However, nothing it written in stone quit yet and these comment have been very helpful. Keep them coming

Just looking to get into multiboxing.. and I would like to try a bit of everything with it. I'm very new at this, so I want the first go at it to be pretty easy (same classes)

So, I'm thinking of going 3 balance druids. Here are some reasons..

PVE
Casters are easy to level it seems. I tried leveling a couple rogues, but found that the slaves would run away with that whole 'interact with target' keybind.
When I get a bit more comfortable with it, I can try tank/dps or heal/dps etc.

PVP
Mostly looking at arenas here.. and I think that the idea of stealth and a suprise attack will help me get my feet wet in it. Probably not the best burst out there, but I'm hoping it will be enough coming out of stealth to get 1 person down while they are trying to get organized.....

Thoughts on this?

If you don't think it's a good idea.. any other 3 you would recommend for a newbie? I would like to try maybe ret pallies or rogues.. but again, I found that interact with target thing wasn't working for me all the time..

Thanks

consider specing them deep resto/ dot spec balance for arena.

for pure fun value I would recommend my druids over shammies any day of the week, sure the burst is not a patch on shammies, but stealthing your team into a bunker in AV and then popping Boomkin form and Starfire is a joy to behold.

Another class you might have over looked in a 3x combo are hunters (also if you pick Dranei you get limited healing as well in the form of Gift of the Naruu) serious damage and multi pet attacks.

I've settled on 3 rogues for the time being. Really it's going to give me the stealth aspect I want, along with the burst. This will mostly be for bg/arena/world pvp (whats left of it). Currently only lvl23 as I'm still learning the ropes with IWT, IS Boxer, Jamba etc. Fun stuff though.

I'm also going to level a more pve build with a pally tank, druid healer and some sort of ranged dps.. probably a shadow priest.
