The biggest problem I see with the druid-option is the way their AE's are targetted (mouse-only) which requires a hardware solution that is pretty difficult. 5 mooonkins would be nice for pvp but are very sensitive to spell locks (basicly only one school of magic and I don't think they can heal in moonkin form can they?). Prot pally + 4 druids is a possibility, but suffer from the same problems as 5 druids except the res, which is allegedly remedied in wotlk. If not for the AE targetting I'd probably give the druids a try - stealth is very nice on pvp servers, but until I can find a solution to the AE targetting I think they're out in the cold
How do we only have a single school of magic? Theres both Nature and Arcane. The only problems I've faced as of now, is fear. If my trinket is on cooldown then I just have to wait out the duration. And as for AE's needing to be ground targeted, have you looked at the WOTLK talents for balance? Typhoon has the same mechanics as Cone of Cold, it expands with distance in front of the caster. AND, Starfall is a non targeted spell as well. If these go live as they are now... I'm gonna be real pleased with my choice of druids.

Stealth makes a lifetime of difference on a PvP server. Hands down.
The two schools of magic would only really be an issue in PvP and since i have PvE aim I guess it doesn't matter much. No, I haven't looked at the WOTLK abilities for any of the classes. I like the knockback of the typhoon, but it seems its on a 20sec cooldown, which means that I'd be hard pressed in AE situations. Still, it's something you can work around I suppose, especially with Starfall if it goes live.

For now I'm in hotkey hell with pala/priest/3mages but I'm going to try 5 druids as well and see what I like the most.

Is there any way to target the remaining AE spells without mousesplitters etc?
