5/6 ZA cleared 5-boxing :)

[cepheus]

many gz man! im really looking forward to do the same in the near future!

what was the ZA setup ?
5 ele shamans
1 holy priest
1 feral taking ?
1 holy pala? from the shoulders and mace looks a tankadin ?
1 spriest
1 enhancement shaman ?

I've done ZA two times now
First:
Feral druid (offtank/dps)
Prot pally (main tank)
Holy priest
Resto shaman
Shadowpriest
5 elemental shammy

Second:
Prot warr (main tank)
Prot pally (offtank)
holy paladin x2
resto shaman
5x elemental shammy

If you have a spriest and two good healers it is usually enough healing (maybe not for zuljin, didnt try with spriest there)
Second time we run without shadowpriest, and did 3 healers instead.

But I think shadowpriest and 2 healers are prefered since it both increases shammy dps and adds additional dps.

Tried Zul'jin today. Had him on 7% Twice

But it went a lot better than expected. Hoping to farm him soon

What the hell do you do during the Eagle phase? I have enough trouble just uniboxing (is there another word for that?) that.

Eagle phase was indeed the biggest problem, but after a few tries it went down to this:

right before this phase begins I spread my chars out a bit and place them with their backs to a wall.

As soon as he shapeshifts I burn all my cooldowns doing massive amount of damage before he begins to hit back when you shoot. This will drop him a few % . After this I go moderate dps until most of my chars is about 50%, then every char cast a Healing Wave on their self to gain some HP, continiue dps and repeat. This is very mana heavy, so you need to chew pots as crazy the whole fight.

You also need quite good gear to have any chance at all here. I think with all my buffs+totems yesterday my shammys had about +1250 dmg, 49% crit and 30 spellhaste, and I still felt I should have had more. Next try I will use a blinding light flask on everyone.

And I almost forgot:
Bring a good tank and healers too

I have yet to try him at all while multiboxing, and while uniboxing we usually just have the melee dps while the casters either wand or drop a searing totem. With all my totems I'm sitting at around 1115 spell damage, 40% crit, and 126 haste on One, and Two and Three are a little lower. And I usually pop a Blinding Light for for ZA. And I very rarely have problems with mana, cause I usually get the shadow priest (who's amazing). But I don't know offhand what her cycle is during eagle phase, so the mana regen may very well dorp off. I'll have to see if I can get all three in there someday. The problem is I run with a set group that can do bear runs. So getting two to sit out so I can bring in the rest of me, which are less geared, would be unlikely. Maybe I'll see if there are any DPS short groups around my server that could use a few shamans.
