Ya really I am hot to get started but there are so many good ideas that I havnt settled on anything yet ... Let me read up on palidens again.

Is there any STRONG agrument against going 24 of the 33/0/38 or 34/0/37 Shamans besided they have to be still to cast heals?

This stops you creating a 5 man group - with a 20 man raid behind them (but not grouped with them), the 5 man group taps it, the 20 man raid also opens and you kill the mob with 25, distributing the XP from the mob kill to just 5. Or more simply, having a mate run around with their level 70 ripping up the boars after you tag them on your level 10. I'm fairly sure in this case, your XP gain (on the level 10) is based on the percentage damage done to the mob. If the level 70 was in the group, you would receive a percentage of the kill based on your level difference to your party members. The 70 would take most of the quota (and not actually get any XP due to the calculations done afterwards) and your 10 would gain an amount.
If all 25 are at the same level the tagger group gets ALL the exp with no penalty.

My plan is to keep everyone at the same level, and not boost.
