I'm a Holy Priest trying to setup a 5v5.
Being a PvPer on a PvE server, it takes alot of effort to find players who really know how to PvP. After months of trial & error I finaly managed to get things off the ground with priest/pala/mage/lock/war setup. I couldn't be too picky about people and ended up with a hotheaded warrior and some extra players (shaman/shadowpriest).
I got it all worked out and managed to surpass 1900 rating in the first week with 30% played for all. Then after a string of 2-3 losses our Warrior decided we weren't good enough for him and traded his char. (I know... how selfish/stupid.)
So we frown for a while and then I decide to run 4 dps for some fun. With priest/spriest/mage/lock/sham we managed to go 5-1 and return to our original spot.
So now I look at the situation and I'm not sure what the best way forward is. Everyone who is in the team at the moment feels that they deserve to keep their spot (including a second warlock lol) and I have to be weary about who I turn away at this point because there will be no one to replace them should my plans change.
Thinking about the team setups... my options seem really unfair. Shouldn't it be possible to run a 2 Healer setup without MS/Wounding? It seems that the only viable option for Holy Priests in 5v5 is 2/3 healer teams with warriors.
The current plan is to run 4 dps and swap myself around with the paladin. But then I feel as though I'm the weak link in our team...
