Paladin + 4 Shammys OR 5 Shammy's

[Eteocles]

Boyl if you ever get a 5th shaman promise me you'll name him Boyardee for me.

There's a search box in your upper right hand corner.

There's a subject line on every thread. I suggest the two of you read it. If you've seen it before, or 10 others just like it, don't open it, and let those who don't mind talking about it, have a conversation without needed to scroll through your unwanted attitudes.



Back to the topic at hand. I've run several instances with five Shaman so far, (Mana Tombs just this morning) and each time I was at either the middle, or the top of the recommended level. (I'm 65 atm)

You're right, my boys can't tank that long, but with five DPS classes, all focused on one target, you don't have to. And don't forget the two greatest totems ever... Grounding and Stoneclaw. I can usually kill two mobs in Manatombs and have a third still busy trying to kill all the stoneclaws.

If you bring a Pally tank, you're taking away a significant amount of DPS, and for what? I don't even have Rock Elementals yet, and I'm still rolling instances (including bosses) with just a good set of shields. There are alot of great stories on these forums about high end raiding with full Shaman teams. This includes Heroics. Be sure to search for those.

...Then we'll get "post your entire macro collection and key bindings" + "screenshot of your desk layout" + "screenshot of your ui layout"

You forgot list of addons you use and how they are configured.

btw, how soon can we get this?

I want to let you in on a little secret. Shaman groups are so 2007...

If you really want to dominate, you'll roll one of the following groups:

4xRogue, 1xHunter (alternatively 5xRogue for maximum DPS)

5xPaladins

2xFeral Druid, 1xFury Warrior, 1xEnhance Shammy, 1xRogue

You know, I started a 5x Hunter group the other day... was so odd to fight things without waiting to cast. Tons of fun so far. But what I'm really interested in, is a 5x Druid group. Purely for the insane mobility. I SO want to stealth in with a 5box team, and pop out with trinket buffed Starfire. ^.^

Boom

[Sanctume]

4xRogue, 1xHunter (alternatively 5xRogue for maximum DPS)

This is a very, very high DPS group that achieves basically instant-kills every 30 seconds, as opposed to the shaman who have to wait 3min in between NS+EM+CL cooldowns. You start from stealth, so you pick your fights/targets, and use Shadowstep to coordinate massive instant cast damage that your opponent can't avoid. You'll have a little difficulty for the first 50 levels, but if you start a new thread about b00sting your guys, we'll give you some tips on how to do that. Hunter is useful since the pet can be used to tank heroics.

Yeah, with Welfare Epics (27k honor gives you 2x 91 dps daggers), 3+ Shadowstep Rogues would so own even if you have all greens other than your epic daggers. OMG, I'm gonna roll Team Rogue.

There's a search box in your upper right hand corner.

I tryed typing it into the search box, but it wouldnt fit, think im going to need a bigger search box. Am i not allowed to ask people their oppinion on which of the two setups will work best for my needs? If yes, then sorry i will delete this thread, if no, then unless your going to help, dont post.

Would heroics be easy if i were to make it really complicated, and have a paladin tank, 3 shammys and a priest healer? When i say easy i meen more easy than 5 shammys.

I just dont want to get to 70 to find out 5 shammys arnt the best for soloing heroics...

Thanks

Oh yea and the reason i cant try to see if 5 wows will work is because i only got this PC yesterday, it is still downloading wow extremely slowley -.-

Or just have the whole thing burned into a DvD, or download from somewhere that installs in one click of a button.

Of course I read them. I look for things like "I've searched everywhere and can't find an answer to my unique (or at least hard to find) question".

There's a difference between a genuine and well thought out question and beating a dead horse that cannot always be gleaned via subject line. Besides, my post has substance. The OP now knows there's a searchbox in his upper right, and I've alluded to the fact that there are many other people who had the exact same question answered numerous times.

Of course you're allowed to ask for people's opinions. But so far I see nothing original in your thread.

Just some suggested reading. And, as suggested, I'll quit posting -- clearly people think that asking a question and getting an appropriate answer is not the hand holding they wanted.

OK, well, I can save you from that possibility right now. 5 shaman aren't "the best" for soloing heroics. My understanding is that you were asking if you could do it so you could keep 5 shaman for PvP, and the answer is yes, but it certainly isn't as good (imo anyway) as a group with a tank (like 1paly4shaman).

RE: your comp - wait until wow's done downloading, copy the directory 4 times (need wow in separate dirs if you want to run them at the same time), and see how it goes.

[Boom]

O M G.

How many of these threads do we really need?

We should have a "I want to copycat a known working 5-box team but I can't decide WHO TO COPY.... oh, btw, what's a search box?" forum.

Vyndree,

Your first post was a reminder... this second one (quoted above) was just mean. Don't go replying now, claiming to be a dang humanitarian and ignore this post you made.

Then you backtrack and start posting useful links for the guy AFTER bashing him? Why couldn't you just post those links in the first place? The kid said he tried to search and it didn't work. But even if he DIDNT try, you don't have to make the kid feel bad.

You knew from the subject of this thread that it was a topic you have already read about, and obviously don't care about... so just don't click on those threads. That fair?

I've had no problem with you up till now. I'm not pissed, and I certainly don't mean to start anything here. I just wanted to point out that if you don't like the subject of this thread, you can go elsewhere, and let the rest of us enjoy talking about it. I assure you, there are plenty of threads on these forums I DONT click on. That's my choice too.

Boom
