hello all,
I am currently an affliction lock 2v2ing with a RDruid.
We have the most difficulty on resto shaman teams.
So how would you counter a shaman team?
What were doing now is I put my pet on the other person and try spread my dots around.
I try to fear when ever I don't see tremor down.
But in the end its a loss, because most of the time the shaman will out last my healer...
Your Help is already appreciated.
Get a totem stomping macro that tells your pet to kill tremor totem. It won't be useful post 3.2, but until then its the easiest way to chain fear us. Secondly, spread out your fear with your druid's cyclone. Getting hit by a cyclone is incredibly annoying just after a fear.

Pfft, there's a counter for it, its just annoying. ;)
Oh, and don't try and 1v1 zerg a high resil resto shaman. It doesn't work. You can only oom him, or kill his partner. 2v1 zerging a shaman is okay, but you need a class combo with interrupt and silence/stun to do it.
A good example is to fear the shaman, have the druid cyclone him after the fear finishes, and kill his partner in the during that time.

That's what Tremor, Grounding and trinket are for. Usualy as a resto I have no problems with affli locks, destro are a pain sometimes. Their burst even with over 800 resi is incredible when combined with a fear. When I'm not topped off it's easy to die that way. I'm realy looking forward to stoping Totem stomping macros, it's a major PITA for shamans. Hint for shamans: ask your partner to kite the pet around boxes or pillars and pewpew it while staying out of locks LoS. Helps a lot. Tremor, Grounding - pewpew.
Don't tell him the counter. Gah false. ;)

He'd find it eventually. :S
I had an afflict lock/resto druid kill my Feral/resto team that way once. Hibernate lasts 30 seconds in pvp for some reason. -_- I was cced half the time, and he was hibernated when I wasn't. :S
Took my partner forever to get the blasted pvp trinket. But we only did it for fun.
