Hello once again, because I am tired of joining groups.. and the dps who created the group says "ok guys what do you think we should do" once were in skype.. I decided to create a QUICK mini guide with the least amount of knowledge you need to lead semi-succesful pug groups.
Creating the Group
You need 1 person capable of sitting a base.
Hunter, Rogues, Mages & Warlocks can satisfy this role quite well, other classes can aswell but you would be hurting your chances of winning.
You need 3 healers, ideally not the same classes. A Paladin healer is strongly recommended as they will be your FC healer.
A flag carrier
Guardian (best option) Rogue (second best) Warrior (only if you have to)
Variety of DPS classes, preferably 2 melee 4 ranged. Pick classes that work each other.
Strats
these are basic cookie cutter strats that have worked well, adjust them as needed based on your comp
Arathi Basin
- HPAL (or any healer that can solo heal if no hpal available) and the tank if its a Warrior or Druid. Otherwise send a Plate Dps to BlackSmith.
- Base sitter caps and stays at Stables/Farm
- Send 1 dps to Mine, someone who can solo. Preferably a Hunter/Rogue. Never give this up for free.
ab strat is kind of out of date, there are better ones for 2k+ current mmr
someone sit farm / st, send mw and mage to gm, rest bs. or - send rogue to gm, someone sit farm / st, then send rest of team wherever the enemy team sends the least of. or - send rogue lm, mage mw gm, someone farm / st, rest bs. these are higher pressure strategies.
