I went with 5. 4shaman 1paladin for my first group. I can get them all the way to 55 get dks and then continue to 85. If I pvp ill probably run just the 4shamans. I can always drop one for pvp but I hate pugs and hate waiting on people and also dont wana hear bs from other people so im gunna roll 5 deep so I can instant que and not worry.
