    Default PVP BG team recommendation

    I am looking for recommendations for a 5-box team to farm honor and have fun doing it. I have never multi-boxed in BGs so I would like to do a setup that is easy to run and can contribute to BGs (I mainly like WSG and either running the flag or returning the flag). I do like fast movement so any combo that includes the ability to run fast in BGs is a plus for me.

    Anyone have any recommendations? I don't mind starting a new party of 5x anything & am fine with starting doing BGs at level 10 and up.

    I also do have access to DeathKnights on all my accounts so I could maybe add a paladin or Druid to 4 DKs.

    I would appreciate alliance race recommendations (usually take human for the free trinket).

    I think just about any 5 box will work for just BGing. If you are looking to run rated I feel like 2 teams in particular will stand out.

    4 DK's + Pali or Shaman
    4/5 Hunters + Pali or Shaman

    DK's are pretty tough to kill with cooldowns and with grip + HB spam flag runners pretty much cannot escape.

    Hunters will have just so much burst and BG maps are all pretty much wide open. You will kill virtually anyone in a GCD or two.

    Warriors have a higher burst than DK's but they are more cool down dependent to do it.

    Default Is a Priest is a viable BG PVP healer combo with 4 Hunters &/or 4 DKs?

    Curious how people rate the healers for these 5 mans... From best to worst are the best 5boxer healers ?:
    1 Paladin ?
    2 Shaman ?
    3 Druid ?
    4 Priest ?

    Since I have a 60 paladin I may run him with my DKs but, once I get a full set of PVP heirlooms, I was thinking of running a Priest with my Hunters. The only reason for that is that I have multiple Paladins, Shamans, & Druids but no Priests...

    Is a Priest is a viable BG PVP healer combo in 5-boxer with 4 Hunters &/or 4 DKs?

    Any recommendations on DK specs/rotations? I likely will start all at 58-60 (I think I have a 60 paladin in storage). I can figure the Holy paladin pretty easily (played them a lot) but could especially use help with the DK specs and rotations.
    ---
    On the hunters, assuming I start them at 10, do you recommend all or mainly BM for total beastial overrun or something else (aimed shot combos, etc)?

    am playing both groups in pvp hunters not yet 85. the deathkights are frost with a pally healer and can pull there wight of a 6 players and can kill a good 8 to 15 players going on gear of overside ofc. am playing in arana as wel and can win games thats good for points.

    now if your going to level in bg i would not. yur group/chars will get one shooted by any class you spend far to much @ gy going back to GY. its silly and stessfull the xp and ques makes it worse then questing or dungons. my hunters manged all dungons so far if i could get to them.

    hunters don't get def till level 77 so they are not great till then i was in Full harlooms and find BG low level pointess even at 68 in AV its not great but it can work in av any other low level games since cata makes pvp low level to much for me. and i played a lot of low level pvp over the years.

    Id recommend going for BM for both PvE and PvP! Pet dmg is crazy, and its an easy and powerfull dps rotation. And boxing hunters + a healer is insane. Hunters do loads of dmg in any BG bracket, combined with a healer its almost to OP i know, I lvled 5 hunters b doing dungeons and BGs from 0 to 85

    Nikita, I am about to start collecting heirlooms for a hunter team.

    I've been thinking about potential for arenas. Wouldn't 4 hunters + mage buddy be probably the best possible comp? Frost Nova to pin the other team, they either lose 1 or 2 guys while nova'd or trinket. Follow that up with Ring of Frost blocking access to your hunters and now blammo you got even more guys set up to get knocked down.

    Either way you slice it a frost mage is probably going to give you the most possible control.

    Go check the movie forum, Ive made a video of 4/5 hunters doing arena and BGs. Last season I got up to 1800 MMR! If you need arena tips, just ask DK + 4 hunters is a crazy comp, im gonna go for 2 k this upcoming season
