Can resto shammies take a hit?

[Apatheist]

Had a good read kn the other threads including my own previous post in paladins, but was really trying to see how well a couple of shamans can survive being in a mashpot of melee and trash.

I would create a separate IWT > Melee hotkey and control from the shamans. This way you can sit 10-15 yards away, shamans shouldn't take much damage at all and your 3 warriors will be guaranteed to receive all of the bounces from chain heal. Shamans have more than enough armor to survive the occasional stray mob that might get past your warriors.

There's not much point pulling more than 4-6 mobs on a warrior group. Whirlwind only hits 4 mobs. However, you will cleave through those mobs super fast and be able to chain pull for as long as your healers have mana.

@Kojiiko. A reply to a post in a paladin team from Apatheist, if I recall. They will all have the same spec.
@Apatheist I am def driving from Shammies, but thought I would throw in nova and some ground totems in the fray.

would this be workable? Thanks for the heads up on whirlwind!

You could do that but magma/nova totem are quite expensive to cast and mobs tend to kill them. Guess it depends how you're doing for mana. There's no healing weapon buff in vanilla so you could always just equip a decent staff or 2H hammer with windfury for "free" DPS between heals as long as the mobs aren't cleaving.
