I'm sitting on 2300 arena points, have every piece of elemental gear I can get with my rating, I'm honor capped, and don't want more resto gear (have 2 pieces, enough for set bonus).

I feel like 5 honor tokens is a waste (10k honor I can get in one WG). Additionally I have about 150 wg marks and have all that junk too.

My only idea is to buy up enhancement gear I could afford - but has anyone tried 4x enhancement shaman, would it at least be fun in BGs (forget arena)? Only problem is only 1 of my shaman has a weapon. But... I with my arena points and honor points I could start with nearly a full set of enhancement gear minus weapon.

Opinions?

For solo pvp play I much prefer enhancement over elemental.
Nice burst, spirit wolves are nice healing and damage and being able to lock folks in place with frost shock is nice too.

Whether it would work x5 I don't know. I've been struggling with interact with target on my elemental team, but that's more my inexperience I think.

All my guys had extra arena points as well. Best thing to do is buy epic uncut gems with honor, then buy honor tokens from the arena vendor to replenish your honor points. Rinse and repeat until the arena pts are gone - and you should end up with a healthy pile of gems.

This being said... its too late now considering when realms go live all arena points will be wiped :eek:.

But... keep in mind for next season ?

Do the following:

Buy the shoulder enchant with the stam and resil from the vendor in Orgrimmar for 10k and and buy a shitload of gems.

Then go to Dalaran and buy 5 tokens for 10k honor, use them, and buy 5 more, repeat so you get honor capped again.

That extra gear is useless and this is something nice for the gbank.
