LF 5 man pve team suggestions

Priest - Probably my most hated character. Terrible healing all around (direct, aoe). Terrible dps. The only reason I keep it around is I am collecting t2/t4 gear for all my chars, plus priest gear is cool looking. Oh I guess mass dispel is kinda nice.

As disc you are correct. Switch to Holy for PvE and you will see vast improvement. Holy priests are probably the best overall healer in the game currently.

Shaman - my favorite healer by far. never was a fan of shaman melee though.

Spec Ele super easy to box and does really good damage

warrior - arms spec is great, he does good dps once you get him a nice ilvl 2hander. kinda hard to get used to since you really need to be on top of overpower, the video fx of isboxer helps as i have a small box with the overpower skill in it that is right next to my tank's threat meter, since i'm always looking there i can easily see when it pops up and i have to activate, same for execute.

Very hard to box due to the nature of the class. If you use ISBoxer you can 2step macro in OP and EX but its still very difficult to dps properly. Tanking is much easier. If you drive from a warrior you almost never lose threat.

feral druid - super easy to macro, goes well with the warrior. mine sucks because there is no leather gear on the AH ever, i am forced to level leatherworking to gear my druid. i like it though. tried to macro a boomkin last year and failed miserably.

Feral is really easy to macro but Combo points are hard to manage properly. Boomkin is not to difficult if you don't take Sunfire talent.

hunter - i found that you are limited to beast mastery spec, since that is easily macroed vs marksman where you really can't macro chimera too easily without taking a massive dps hit. plus you'll get a cool looking pet.

Go survival, still super high DPS and VERY easy to macro.

paladin - i used to hate my ret paladins. yesterday i activated one at level 83, found out he was super easy to macro and put out good dps. i now love my paladin again. can't wait until he is 85.

Prot is easiest to box with this guy. Ret isnt to bad but its dificult to handle the exo and holy power procs properly.

rogue - not very impressed. super easy to macro, but even though he has ok gear, his dps still isn't that great. he's kinda "meh" to me. only in the group to soak up t1/t2/t4 rogue gear and cool looking weapons to transmog.

Combo points are difficult to manage but not impossible. Very good DPS if you can manage it.

dk frost/blood - always impressed with the blood dk tanking ability and dps output, and the frost dps output. frost was kinda like the warrior in that you have to set up video fx to monitor procs (or use procmon from jamba).

Super easy in every aspect

Mage: Arcane is the easiest by far of all classes to do SUPER high DPS on with a simple macro. Your rotation is so short and simple its almost pathetic and you only have one proc that really matters. If you want a class with huge burst, and High sustained DPS go with and arcane mage.
