4x Shaman / 1 War or 4 Warrior / 1 Shaman

[nodoze]

Currently have a MMMMP that's pretty geared at this point. Looking to start fresh as Horde on a new server.

Toiling between melee cleave with 4 warriors and a shammy for WF or a Spell Cleave with 4 or 5 shammys

Really looking to grind some dungeons and get a bunch of gold. PvP is big so Shammys win there. How well can 4 shammys grind dungeons?

The main thing I have heard regarding shaman as DPS was mana issues though if you have a mage or mages giving free water then maybe it isn't as big an issue. Initial grinding via shaman DPS with no water on a new server may be a gold sync for awhile. In addition to spending more time drinking there may be some fights that are just not complete-able due to going OOM (not sure).

I don't know anyone who has done 4Shaman+Warrior but I believe Pertrolisk and some others have done 5 Shaman to cap and maybe they will chime in with some thoughts.
