Need To Pick Your Brains

[ctrcivic]

Hey guys, long time player and user of ogre. Just came back to the game about a month ago and got my toons max level and clearing most of the heroic TOT stuff. I wanna make some tweaks for some more dps and what not when I can. Below is my current group with options to follow. Thanks in advance for your feedback!

Current Group
SK
Troub
Illy
Fury
Def
Warlock

Thinking of swapping the Fury for a Wiz (prior raiding main toon) Can the def solo heal effectively?
I also have the option of bringing in an Inq instead of the Def as well. So basically can the Defiler do he jop solo healing or should I plan to toss healer gear to the Inq to bring him in when I swap in the Wizzy. I know I'm overlooking the fury as a solo healer option......I'm open to using the Fury if you guys think she can do the job lol.

Its been my experience that once heroic zones are on farm status any healer can solo heal the zones and shamans are pretty damn OP. As for the wizard, if you have a good profile or will be playing the class then sure but I hear they're pretty bad to bot with. Take that with a grain of salt as Ive never tried a wizard.

Thanks for the response. The wizard is ideal for a couple reasons since he is on the same account as the fury it's a one for one swap, so I was hoping the Def could do the job. The wizard use to be my main and I use to have a script when their was a chain tab and his dps was pretty damn solid.

- may want to start pleveling a zerker now.. they are far better in ToT zones than the SK - sad but true.. Zerks can clear zones like Ill Seen, and Rise to Power in 3-4 pulls, while the SK plods along.
- the Defiler will be fantasic (wards FTW) but the INQ for Verdict can save a lot of time, esp on some of the more messy fights.

otherwise, great group makeup.. run with 2 healers while you have to, then once you gear up enough that the zone seems easy, drop to a single healer, and bring in more DPS. (as a reference, once your healer can sustain >1M HPS, they should be fine to solo heal.. except on a couple of encounters.)
