Mixed team versus all 1 class

[JohnGabriel]

In WoD having a mixed team made everything more difficult than having all dps.

The class changes for Legion will be coming soon so you can try them before the expansion actually releases. I don't think anyone will actually know what to tell you until then.

What was made harder? I am not sure what you mean.

You could just run through heroics with 5 DPS, but a tank/healer/3xDPS had to follow all the mechanics of the fights. You should check out David mages videos. He is taking 5 hunters through mythics.

In the purest sense, having mixed classes versus one class is N times harder to manage. You have to manage at least 3 different rotations, 3 different sets of cooldowns, 3 different "oh shit" buttons, 3 different thought processes regarding fight mechanics, etc. If you have 5 different classes, it's even worse.

That said, once you intimately understand how all that ties together, you can come up with some pretty amazing setups with ISBoxer to help manage the complexity.

As for the other questions, the general answers are 1) yes, moreso than a single-class team for reasons outlined above; 2) and 3) all-DPS groups have advantages in some fights, whereas a mixed team has advantages in other fights, and certain tanks have better synergy with certain DPS mixes, but how that affects Legion nobody knows yet.

3 different "oh shit" buttons

And I thought I was the only person to call it that.
