Aren't Mages who are able to DPS from range going to be better able to deal with most mechanics?Originally Posted by strokes
Just seems pretty straight forward that attacking from range and being easier to gear (as well as doing better with shit gear) makes Mages a better proposition to be multiboxing in larger numbers.
Why has no one mentioned warlocks? Now that the ZG gear is out they out dps mages, have 1button dps, and when some
maths you can weave in enough life taps so you never ever ever oom. I mean... where’s the love!
I originally was going to ask about Warlocks but I thought that now that ignite is viable on the current end-game raids aren't Mages even better in Raids than before?
I guess anyone starting would be doing MC and what not first where Mages's ignite isn't viable but anywhere they can ignite they should be superior by far. There are respecing costs and some raids are more multiboxable than others (and I am no expert on that) so would love to hear how much factor ignite could be for multiboxing Mages in Phase 4+ raids...
That being said I actually run Warlocks and would love to hear folks thoughts on multibox raiding with Warlocks vs Mages vs Warriors in Phase 4+. Would love to see some one rank them and give some idea on benchmarks for reasonably attainable DPS for all 3 when multiboxed with fairly easily attainable gear.

With enough warriors, a lot of fights stop being fights. No other class can pump as much damage in 30-40 second kills (what you would have to be doing to make ignoring mechanics viable). The best mages(99) barely compete with great warriors(95+) on parses.
Warriors will be the better composition if (really big if) you have enough of them well geared.
I am completely ignoring the fact that you would go insane before you could gear that many warriors that well.

which favors ranged classes, as much as i love warriors in vanilla for multiboxing but thinking of garr, gheddon, rag and to some extend shazzrah with 20 warriors and not investing thousands of gold in pots each run i dont see them being much faster than a caster setup...certainly not cheaper either if you want 20x lionheart+devilsaur+flurry+deep woods+resistance potions
Someone did it already - a lot of Warriors....

:LoL I like the Garr video where basically it is a quick loot before wipe. Yeah the adds killed his raid but bottom line is he got the boss loot (kinda cheesy but he did get the drops)...
LOL before the boss pull all the Warriors pop Diamond Flask with Healing gear/Weapons equipped and then quickly swap back before charging in... Hard to argue with that from a burst/survive perspective...
Still would love to hear more thoughts about Warlocks and their relative ranking now that they are starting to catch up gear-wise.

oh nice i didnt even look it up beforehand, didnt think of cheesing garr that way
its good to see the strat kind of works but still he got 600-900 dps on his wars and half the raid dead on lucifron would worry me for later encounters. The thing is his gear isnt getting much better at this point i see alot of deep woods/flurry in this raid (ok they have the same model but i suppose he got both on most wars)
I'd be really impressed if he gets gheddon with 1 priest tho, that manaburn is gonna delete his shamans in 20 sec unless he outplays it by los'ing. As dps isnt an issue anyway why not run 3 war 1 priest 1 shaman groups instead of the 4 war shaman groups it would be much safer imo since he got 600+dps

Frostmourne (Oceanic) - Bloodlust - Alliance - 10 Boxer
so he has to kill him before the second igniteGarr kill took him 90 seconds with 100% uptime so gheddon will be quite a challenge...maybe if he los the very first ignite and then pot for the second he can do it or position such that he can outrange it all the time. Probably the most fun fight in MC for a boxer after rag
all of this looks nice on paper if you have infinite money.
