Nice stuff, I'm more interested in how you do those bug trash packs tho. I imagine you do them without elemental totems to avoid having to wait for cooldowns?

I can 4 man most bosses with totems if need be, but those 4x bug packs screw me up without a tank present.

I feel that this is going to be an incredible thread. Can't wait to get my guys to 70 (45 atm).
Keep up the input!

I think you will find people use duel earthbind totems and kite, dueling them will prevent a resist and get you killed. I havnt mastered the art of it yet in heroics but im trying:/

Ah, that makes a lot of more sense. xD Thanks for the idea as well, should I try a four man sometime. :P (Which should be perfectly possible.)

Actually what I do is, target 1 of them spam LB and drop them before they get to me (no CLs is keys). Drop 4 or 5 Stoneclaw totems and then 4 or 5 fire nova totems. Now as I'm running away I drop earthbind totems staggered about 10yards apart. Spin around and blow the other 3 up. I'll post a video of the bug pulls later today up in the SP post.

It'd also be interested in seeing different ways to clear the trash since as I currently do it, I never use earthbind kiting - ever (too lazy). Usually I just focus on taking out whatever is going to come running at me first, kill one right off the bat on the pulls, any other melees go down next, negate casters with grounding, ensure plenty of distance on the initial pull... etc.

As toned mentioned he uses stone claw and earthbind and no CL... I think I do the complete opposite.

Target melee, drop grounding, trinket+lightning bolt, followed immediately by a EM+CL, that takes out the first guy in a group easily, and damages two others nicely. Quick switch to the next target, lightning bolts + earth shock (if necessary before it has a chance to hit). Then just mop up any others.

For big packs like in heroic MgT, I add in a heroism/bl, and make sure grounding is always up - taking out mage guards first then bloodknights, then any others that are in melee range, then focus on casters.

Nice stuff bud, keep em coming!!



Would like to thank you for putting the time and effort into this, already thinking about dropping my current M team for a shammy team- currnet one is pally, 3 mages and priest. Can clear some heroic instances but no efficiently at all.

I've got Mana Tombs and Steam Vaults that I need to finish up and post, probably get Ramparts and Blood Furnace recorded today as well... Re-did my SV video to show some trash pulls being as people requested I'll start showing the trash packs. Shadow Labs is one of those I'll show almost every different trash pull lol.
