Is this viable pvp combo? 1dps + 4 healers

[SaraiE]

4 mobile healers (2Xdruids, 2 priests) + affliction lock
All five can dots, move, attack opposing team healer first, strategy is to wear down the healer's mana while healing your group
you have aoe fear when melee is on you, 3X(priests/lock), keep running and kite.

I saw a video and they won, by wearing down the opposing team...long fight, but a win is a win.

Thoughts?

Run a warrior or a DK. You will want someone with unlimited DPS that isn't super squishy.

I'm leveling 4 shamans up currently gonna try a mixed DK/Shaman group, but I am also going to run 4 resto shamans with a warrior friend ;p

to many squishies. you'll probably get stomped pretty good until your gear gets superb

[SaraiE]

Haha, if you don't like squishies, how about four plate holy pallies and a DK?

What would be the point?
Would you be able to kill anything besides the few stragglers you find?
Would be able to kill the 3 you are fighting while the fourth caps your node?

Had a team do this to me and it took about 5 minutes but they killed me. Mostly they were mana burning my healer. Was really annoying to burst a healer down to 30% and watch as they instantly were healed to full. Fuck that.

You'd have to have endless patience to gear a team like that up. I think 5 dps would be more fun/usefull.

Just imagine what you're gonna do in a BG. WSG. get the flag and escort it to base safely. Then hope the other 5 manage to get the flag back? Sota. Kill a demo with 4 healers and 1 dps? I just don't see any advantages.

I think this would be mainly an arena group.

I'm going to test out 4 resto shamans + a friend warrior, it could be highly amusing. Sort of a reverse troll. Even if we lose it is going to take the other team 10x longer to win than it would normally take ;p

Time for me to go with 5 resto druids and bore the enemy to death...

well, healers are all hybrids. they can spec into DPS if needed. At current rate, PVP gears are easy to get.
