as the resident Sat user, I will say, at least for me , It is more than doable. Yes I have latency, but when I'm doing my own 5 man, it doesn't matter. Heck I can even do 5 men in raids, providing I'm DPS.

that being said, it could be different in your location.

I did use Hughesnet for about 5 years, and now I'm using Wildblue, and love it. Outside of that, I'm in the same situation as you, way out in the middle of nowhere. Wouldn't trade it for the world though.
