hard time deciding class make up to begin with...

[Mac]

Thank you for the reply.

well from a pve perspective.... hands down the best DPS class is a destruction warlock, 0/21/40.

I'm not familiar with locks, but always wanted one. I read that they should be affliction until the time they get felguard, than should be heavy in the demonology spec, so I was interested to see your comment saying destruction is best. Can you link a destruction spec that reflects the numbers you've provided 0/21/40 ( sorry, I never know where people are applying points when they just refer to a spec with the numbers)?

Druid will work good for a single target tank; palladin works better for group tanking and less micro-managing.

I can multi mobs fine with my druid under normal circumstances, 1,2,3 mobes are easy, after that it can get get tricky depending on the situation, people don't usually die when I'm tanking, but I find its a lot of work keeping control of more then 3 in light CC situations. So, with all of the input here on the boards about ease of tanking with a Pali as it relates to multi-boxing, I will probably roll one to see if it really makes a difference. I'm so used to tanking on my druid, I figured to make him the main toon I was driving and have the ranged and healer be the drones. If a pali is that much better for multi-boxing, I will be happy to roll one. I guess we will find out how much truth there is to that from a druid tank perspective. I would look forward to being able to pot without shifting lol...

S.Priest will not cut it for healing any heroics. Period. Respec him Holy for PoMending fun (tank to life-tap to tank). Alternatively, you could use the S. Priest to feed mana to your locks, marginally increase healing (enough to support a life-tap every now and then) and increase the locks damage I believe.

You already have a decently geared Tank.. which makes it hard to justify rolling a new tank. Although for a boxer, a pally is a no-brainer IMHO.
Anyhow, I suggest warlock x 3, convert S.Priest to healer or warlock x 2, and roll another healer.

Sorry, I didn't understand your "(tank to life-tap to tank)" comment? Agreed that S.priest won't cut it healing heroics. They do contribute to lock dmg and are good mana batteries, but I think the mana issue is a secondary concern. If the targets drop fast mana wo'nt be the concern. Which leads me to think drop the spriest for the third lock ...or mage for cc, drinks and ports?

It would seem a no-brainer to re-spec my priest holy in that case, but he has very crude + heal gear atm and I've been so stuck on keeping him dmg for pvp that its hard to consider switching him back to holy, but he may have to take one for the team. Since I'm considering rolling a pali tank for this project, maybe I'll roll a holy priest too *shudder* . Holy priest party heals seem like would be the best idea for multi boxing. I think that trumps the benefits of single target heals of pali or druid , but I may be wrong about that. Can someone comment why they would think another healing class other then a priest would be better for a pve multi-box team?
