Hey guys,

Most of the full aoe combination I have seen combine 4 mages with a priest, I assume because of the aoe heal they provide. I was wondering why we do not see more Hpal instead.

It seems to bring quite a lot of perks, such as aggro reduction and the aoe taunt. Plus being more sturdy than the priest if you use a prot/holy combination.

Have some of you tried this ? How does it fare?

Question if so :
- what spec would you recommend?
- is the lack of taunt a problem in boss fights where you'd be tanking + healing while the mages dps it down

Alternatively, would you see 2 pal + 3 mages work better with the buffs from the 2nd pal + 2x consecrations still doing decent aoe (although far from a mage's AE) ?

Many thanks!
