Anybody tried an all-cleric team?

[Ughmahedhurtz]

so staves on the followrs and one hand mace and shield for tank im guessing? Also, for rifts and questing.. still keep the lead toon tank spec?

Yes on the staves-x4 + sword/board for the tank for harder elites.

For questing, I keep mine all 5 AoE spec (inq/cab/just). I blow up rifts as fast as I can pull them into a clump. [edit] If I can remember, I'll make a video of me clearing a rift with mine.

Ditto here with just 3x on the clerics.

The only trick is when pulling an elite, sometimes he sticks to one of my clerics, and it's not my main. Just be aware and have DoL ready to spam a couple of times to heal him back up to full before continuing with the dps.

No idea how I missed this one the other day... probably because of the edits (and it not being in the movie
section *cough*). Either way... Outstanding.

For you guys running this 5x Cleric team, do you put DoL on a mouseoverui click healing setup like Alge described or just use a keybind? Or even 5 character specific keybinds for which toon will receive the heals?

IMHO, all AoE heals goes to a key press. It's not targeted on a specific character so there's no need for mouseover. I currently have it on F10.

For mouse over single-target heals I still use keys. I mouse over a raid frame and hit one of my "raid heal" keys (happens to be shift-1 through shift-5 in my case) and it will cast the corresponding heal spell on that character, no matter which character I happen to have as main at the moment.

I don't do this. I have my healer's main heal multi-step keymap/macros set to go off when I'm spamming my attack keys for the rest of the group, so my tank is constantly healed by default.

Then I have basically set up ISBoxer's keymaps + repeater region so that I have the same functionality as the HealBot addon in Rift for click healing other slaves that need it. Works damned well for the most part, though I admit to not needing it most of the time due to having so much passive group healing. If I can remember, I'll post my King's Breach video tonight and you'll see my click healing keymap notifications going off. ISBoxer is very slick with the repeater region thing.

I use the mouse-over Shift-1 to Shift-5 for occasional off-healing. (Healing people who isn't the main character.) For healing my main, I use numpad 1-5, which casts the same spells as Shift-1 to Shift-5 but on the main character. I like pressing buttons on the keyboard rather than mouse-clicking anything...

I don't do a lot of dungeons (yet), but I've done a few where I had set up stepping keymaps for spamming heals on the tank automatically. They're a pain to set up and needs constant tweaking and modifications as you level up and get new abilities or respec. And I feel like I have no control over what's happening...

Sure, there are caveats to it, like having to interrupt things on occasion to get it to cast. For most cases I've encountered, there are very rarely events that need me to actively heal someone aside from the tank. And even in those rare events, I can usually just ignore it and let the alt die and it won't affect the outcome in the slightest.

I'm sure things will get a lot different in expert dungeons. We'll see how things need to go when that time arrives.

I do not see where you have your repeater region set up on the screen? do you have it over your top bar? Also, how do you like the fun/play style of these clerics compared to when you were leveling your rogs?
