[2v2] war/druid vs mage+x

[Azhu]

x=rogue/spriest/lock
what should i kill first? water elemental? I usually go for shadow priest or rogue first, but mage's dps is just too high to heal plus some frostbite proc. Or should I change to def stance to use shield reflection and try to los the mage? Any suggestions? Thanks.

Always kill the water elemental first

then get on the priest or rogue

I disagree on killing the pet, if it's a mage and they go for your druid you always go on the rogue keeping him hamed and off your druid, trinket first poly and reflect rest. if Shadow priest if they go on you, go on SP. If they go on your druid go on rogue. When it's a warlock go on warlock to start and hop on rogue when he gets out, you leave that rogue alone your druid is done, there is no time to kill the pet at all don't even attempt it your druid will be dead by the time it is dead, if you have cast bars sheeps are easy to reflect.

Well, it's easy if they go on druid. I just try to peel and kill the rogue as fast as I can. The problem is if they try to nuke me down, what should I do? Rogue has wound poison and shadow priest can dispel HOT. Well geared mages' non crit frostbolt can be 1900 per hit. Every time I died before their shadow priest or rogue.

killing the pet is 1 of the smartest things you can do. it takes literally 2 seconds and cuts the mages burst potential in half as well as giving him 1/2 the castable novas he had before...

Not sure how good the group was you were facing since they can differ quite a bit, but my druid and I had most success today when I focused on killing the mage and my teammate focused on CCing the shadow priest. With the warrior hitting the mage he has a pretty hard time dpsing since he has to try and kite most of the time.

definately kill the pet the go for the other person ive played druid war and warlock and as a druid when i see a mage the first thing that pops into my head is sweet free points! (sorry mages =( ive got two RL friend mages and i feel your pain) as for the warrior dying i dont see how your druid cant keep you up, you said rogue has wound poison... get the druid to have abolish on you AND himself at all times this avoids having to trinket out of blind which is huge. As for the shadow priest dispelling hots have the druid spam lifeblooms he can dispell all day long and you will stay up and have your druid cyclone while the mage is casting frostbolt because thats going to give him the best chance to not get counterspelled. Also with SP mage if they are smart they will coordinate their silences on him, make sure he calls out when he gets silenced so you can switch to defensive and pop on spell reflect or just los the mage

if the mage has +1300 damage somehow and you are in zerker stance maybe lol

1500 is a more realistic number with my gear

[Azhu]

That mage uses a lot of +dmg gem and some pve gear. His overall dmg is around 950. When he opens up his dmg trinket and with the 5% extra dmg from shadow priest's debuff, 1800-1900 per hit is no joking, lol.

Run them both oom with LoS, def stance and spell reflect if X isnt rogue.
I do that all the time with a shaman, just randomly pop out and throwing weapon anyone who tries and drinks or charge out and harass and intervene back to pillars. Run them to 15 or so % mana, then they're useless.

huh, i find mageteams as free rating as well with my war+druid team :> if frostmage+rogue, we go for the rogue first.

if fmage+spriest...never met that combo before but i would assume we would go for hte spriest to make sure he can't burst down my teammate :)

if fmage+lock, go for the fmage :> in my experience, the lock will drain life to full hp anyways during the time your warrior mate is sheeped -.-

oh and sorry for the f's in front of mages, old habit before i realized both fire and frost starts with f...(d'oh)
