yea...
i play either prot or ret paladin and shadow priest (no healing!), which don't exactly have much standing in arena
and they're both alliance, so battlegrounds are hopeless
so i'm not exactly into the whole pvp thing

If you're bored, roll Alliance on Gul'Dan. I'm spearheading the formation of a world pvp oriented guild. Gul'Dan has a medium population but a ratio of 1 alliance to 3 horde. Send a message to Tublord in game if you're interested. 11/28/2007 1:46:26 PM |

^^^ spriest no good in arena. Surely you jest. I'm leveling a troll spriest on mal'ganis right now. Only running arena and a few bgs a day on my ally pally. I'd need 50 more badges for the healing cloak but I swore to never set foot in a heroic again, so i decided to spend my extra time grinding an alt, hehe.
It's so nice finally having 300 resilience btw. Now if I can only hit 1850 so I can replace my shit mace... 11/28/2007 3:30:26 PM |

2v2 with a warlock, sure i can see that. but a spriest dies so easily, the only arena stuff i do is the 'lose 10 matches a week in 5v5' kinda deal with a bunch of PvE off specs (mix and match of feral druid, ehn shaman, prot paladin, rogues, hunters) where i'm the first to get FF and destroyed.
and whenever we see they have a shadow priest we kill it first simply because they're easy to kill

heroics are kinda easy for me to get due to the classes. (my 2v2 team is my warrior and a resto druid) so on days we like the daily heroic we just grab 3 dps monkeys go do it. I have mostly blue L70 tank gear, with like 3 epics. Heroics have been nerfed enough that its no worse then what L70s should be for the most part (fuck crypts though). And hey, badge loots good for pve. I don't think that 25 man raids are any worse then 40 mans. I know a few guilds full of mouth breathers that are atleast 5/6 ssc 3/4 tk, which makes you about equal to being stuck at emp's in AQ. (6/6 and 3/4 means you are stuck on c'thun, speaking of fights where 1 numbnut can wipe a raid). 11/28/2007 3:43:56 PM |

Easy way to solve this problem, pvp gear can only be equipped in BG's, Arena's, and world pvp zones. I honestly wouldnt mind that either. 11/28/2007 6:58:20 PM |

3v3 with lock and resto drood is a sick combo. You always go for the spriest but being on spot with the mana burns and staying up as long as you can is key. I hate geared spriests >.<11/28/2007 11:11:35 PM |

mace def for 2v2. For 5 v 5 i'd probably take sword, and that point you have enough stuns/cc/snares/interrupts/etc that are controlled you might as well take the bonus damage 11/29/2007 8:53:45 AM |

oh definitely. im axe all the way at heart. used HWL battleaxe FOREVER pre BC. almost 2 years i think? i forget how long this darn games been out. The only other weapon I had my eyes on was the DEoI.
in BC i was lunar crescent, mooncleaver for S1 and finally gave into Mace 11/29/2007 3:55:54 PM |

you're doin fine with axes right? no need to switch.
I enjoy swords as a rogue (0/31/30 sword specced), and i do just fine. i own face in pvp, and don't need mace spec to pull off a stunlock. I enjoy seeing that extra attack pop up (esp as a crit) instead of pray for a mace stun proc. 11/29/2007 3:59:01 PM |

cain All American 7450 Posts user info edit post |
res hoses axe spec compared to sword for damage, or mace of annoyance (5% chance to crit with reduced damage < 5% chance of non-reduced double attack, that can crit) 11/29/2007 4:17:58 PM |
CalledToArms All American 22025 Posts user info edit post |
^^^ yea i did fine with axe (gladiator), but felt like i was still missing something from other warriors when a stun by an opposing warrior would cost us the game.
however, with the S2 mace at the moment, the mace proc is nerfed enough that im considering going to one of the other weapons since the proc landing is close to rare atm for me personally 11/29/2007 4:26:15 PM |

i use pitbull for unit frames and it's awesome so i don't want to replace it, i just need something for raid groups that can show missing buffs and certain debuffs. grid had a module that did this perfectly but it doesn't work anymore and i don't think it's getting updated.

raid groups expand into the bottom right corner, party frame shows up there when not in a raid.

we went the last 2 years getting nerfed every single patch. we get a buff and then a corresponding nerf 2 weeks later.
