After a lot of tweeking, changing, rerolling, and a lot of dieing, the absolute 2 best classes for level 5 raids is Priest Tank and hunter dps.
Level 5 Hunter:
Concussive shot, starts missing above level 50ish but not needed for raids, just woulda been a nice little bonus to save the healers mana a bit
Otherwise the best dps there is. Was the same at level 1. The cobra shot damage with Vers stacking and woodchucker can't be beaten. Plus pet damage who hit lvl 60+ mobs ALOT more frequently
Level 5 Priest:
Only viable healer, as they can spam heal almost 40 flash heals without popping a mana potion. Other classes come up short at 3-4 heals per mana pool. With heals like this going out, the raid boss will always be on the priest healers. They will need to stack a balance of Vers and Stam to take the most hits, without dieing.
Right now, the math says with lucky fishing hat, 2 agms, and furbog, 1700 hp and 50% Vers is max. 1800 with rumsy. A level 70 BC mob would still take 2-3 hits to kill you. But with healing to fill with 2 heals in 2 second, they make the absolute best heal tank.
An optimal raid will consist of all hunters as priest healers. Hunters kiting as long as possible until heals need to be done. Then the priests take the threat from there leaving hunters to all out dps boss
Based on the test last night, a group of 2 priests and 3 hunters will have the mana and damage output before healers go oom, to down a level 71 WOTLK mob with NO LFHS, AGMs, or boa rings. Furbog either, but it's very easy to obtain so might as well
Just though I'd bring this to everyone's attention incase your currently debating on what low level twink to make. 1s have some potential, but with healing possibility at 5, they have so much more.
Go to our <High Fives> if you need any more information or how to contact us to stat rolling.
Still need 1-2 more hunts.
