Forum section recomendation - PVP!

[Thadeus]

I think we can all agree that PVP should have its own section on the forums, I would venture a guess that at the reason we multibox (wether we realize it or not :P) is that wonderful feeling of firing off *insert name of lava burst type spell here* x5 at some unsuspecting member of the opposite faction :P

This section would be a place for guides / strategies ect ect

Currently some of my issues that would be fun to discuss ....

(Well first my gear blows, trying to pvp when half your team is under 14k hp is just bad lol, but anyway)

Im running a 5 shaman team finally all 80 :P


Casters are ussually not a problem, im dropping 4 grounding totems for the group, and at least 2 tremor, though they some to fail sometimes, maybe its a warrior "fear" that is a mechanic that the totem cant get me out of or something.

But melee just rapes me... An arms warrior with their whirl wind crap is just a nightmare only way to stop them is to survive the length of thier spell ( which I wont be doing itll i have more gear and HP), or kill them quick.

I guess I am just going to have to try to get better at keyboard turning the team to keep them in LOS but thats just hard to do with so much going on.

I managed to macro in a rotation for the thunderstorm spell (AOE dmg + AOE knockback). Similar to below if you are interested. First time I press the macro Tshock casts it, 2nd time Hshock, 3rd Ashock and so on 4 or 5 times or until it resets.

/castsequence reset=35 Thunderstorm,,,,

But I havent a clue how to deal with an attack from multiple rogues.

1) They get close to you, you CAN NOT prevent that, they stealth in and ticks from AOE totems, or even a paladin concencrate dont break their stealth which is just horrible IMO.

2) Stun the leader once and the whole team is dead before i can get a heal off, i guess (and hope) this is at least currently due to my FAIL gear and horrible HP pool.

I think the next thing I need to do since all the dps of the group is spec'd into "Storm, Earth and Fire" is make a rotation macro similar to the thunderstorm one, to cast the root effect from earthbind totem one after another.

If only the "click to move" function could be setup to only turn an face the target without walking to it (thus interrupting spell casts).


I think that another strat I am going to have to try out is changing my "leader" back and forth from time to time. My team consists of those in my sig, so I guess its pretty obvious that "Thaduce" is the leader. I think i'll try setting up tshock as the resto healer see if that throws people off at all.

Anyone lets get that section created so we can all start brainstorming :P
