    When you hit Outlands, prepare to be disappointed. The dynamic changes considerably, then again when you hit Northrend.

    There are many many many posts here trying to get this group comp. to work - but in the end they all come up short. Its a fun comp, but it just doesn't work in the end unfortunately.

    Agreed, you had me until you said RFK. The pets just cannot tank instance bosses in Northrend, even on normal unless you are VERY out gearing the content.

    That said, my hunters and a shaman team was pretty fun stuff right when WOTLK dropped.

    Out of interrest, what about the classic 5x Elemental Shaman? I'm currently level 71 and have had no trouble doing instances under-level but what should I expect? Do I need to reroll one into a paladin?

    Back in TBC it was possible to clear heroics with 5x shamans with decent gear trough use of healing and elemental totems on bosses.
    In WotLK the bosses hit a LOT harder and even some trash mobs are a pain, making a tankclass almost needed. On the other hand a dedicated healer isnt neceserry in WotLK with decent passive group heals (healing totem, divine storms, etc)

    1 guy in here has managed to 5x shaman Normal Forge of Souls (wiping several times and waiting for elemental totems to cooldown)... so while possible its not optimal.

    Its up to you to decide if you want to roll a tank, or keep the 5 shammies for pvp and use the LFD tool to queue 4 at a time and pugging a tank (or add a friend/guildy tank)
