Druides were the best healer for 2s arena because of their mobility. Pillar humping made them pretty much unkilllable.Quote:

Ele shami for example is considered weak for arena in TBC and still its the best choice for multiboxing in this xpac.
dudu got the imba OP lifebloom in tbc totally nerfed in wotlk
Lifebloom wont help against aoe dmg. When u multibox +5 chars aoe dmg is the biggest threat, not single target dmg.Quote:

If memory serves, the AoE damage hit each target same for 3 mobs or 20, or more. I think it was Wotlk that limited the AoE damg to a set amount, ie... hit more targets for less, or less targets for more. however it is quite hazy, I'm not entirely sure.Quote:

Thats quite interesting. In TBC the aoe dmg cap doesn't scale with gear. Means blizzard of a low geared mage deals the same amount of dmg like blizzard of a BiS geared mage when hitting many targets.
Later on in Wotlk they changed it so the AoE dmg cap scales with gear.
Yeah, once I read what that link.... a lot of memories came back. I remember that now, its a mechanic they put in to keep the content challenging longer, but also limited on who got to see end game. This will be interesting.
