Arena 5v5 slot(s)?
« on: April 01, 2008, 07:01:29 PM »
Hi guys,

I was wondering if there is a slot free for your 5v5-Team? I would like to join with Petit and maybe switch to Aljaná later when she hits 70 and has gathered a bit resilience.

Petit did some 2v2 and 3v3 Arena but not serious 5v5 so please bear with me if I noob around.  

Cheers
Petit

I demonstrated a significant amount of noobiness myself this evening, out of 5 matches I think I used heroism in one so we're kinda used to that.  Would be nice to try double pala healers for a change, we ran into that several times today and man is it irritating.

As far as im aware the teams full. Being aware that the team is getting more serious thane's pvp gear dosn't do the job anymore so i'd be happy to give up my slot for you.

I already stated last week that if anyone else needed a slot the team were free to bump me out.  I doubt I will be returning to Arena for a while (still liking the solo approach, dedicating to a specific time for raiding and pvp teams isn't what I want right now)

So there is a slot, accept it guilt-free and with a happy heart my good paladin.  

EDIT: Oh, and there is noone as noobish as me when it comes to PvP, almost always the first to die, badly geared, bad talent build, the list goes on..

Thane - I don't think the team is getting more serious, it's pretty much that it's the same 6 people every week is all, and as such we're hovering around the magic 1500 rating all the time.

The more I think about 2 paladins the more I like the idea - 2 buffs, 2 bubbles, 2 BoPs - this should do serious good things to our chances of winning (currently BoP is usually reserved for Bronwyn as she gets hellish focus on her, but it would be nice to have something to throw at Kyon too)

It's certainly more serious than when we started out, then it was all about gear whereas now we kinda like winning more than 1 match a week

Contemplating whether to level a warrior for the level 80 arena team, we're still suffering because we don't have one.

Eep! Just realised I logged off without throwing you an invite last night.  Will rectify that next time I see you online.

And so it begins - what sort of strategy are you guys wanting to take for this evening's shenanigans? Are we going to split the paladin matches so each takes 5, or are we going to go for 2 healers/3 DPS? If the latter I suggest that Bronwyn and Kyon are assigned a Blessing of Protection at the start of the games to be applied when we engage - anything to keep them alive long enough to take the first mob and a half down is a good thing.

I'd say go with 2 palas and 3 DPS.  100% increase in healing for a 25% loss of DPS, not an unreasonable swap.  One squishy easy-to-kill type per match if possible.
