First night of Arena 4 Shammy + Pally

So I hit 70 earlier this week so they all have 5/5 Blue PvP and I got them the S2 MH and S2 Shield so far. The pally friend doesn't even have a trinket yet. We went 2-8 with 2 losses we could have won if I had realized my macros were set wrong before hand. Not a bad first attept, learned a lot.

Ruins - I just stayed outside the door, seems like it works, we had our victories both in this arena.

Nagrand - Tried to stay in the door way but the two pillars make for easy LOS by the enemy. I think ill run to the left or right middle and back against the wall next time.

BEM - Got this the most and couldn't come up with a working strat. First time we went up our ramp and stopped there. Thier shammy/mage/hunter came in from the front, the warrior from our left with a fear bomb and priest from our right with another fear bomb. Second time we tried to wait just outside our door, they all went on pillar which was in range to hit me, I killed one but he got rezzed, I tried to run up to stop but it was too late and then I was vulnerable. Third we tried to wait inside the start area, that failed as well due to LOS. All I can think to try is a charge over to thier ramp and up, any suggestions?

On a side note even in this crap gear i easily pull my wieght in all BGs but WSG. I can hold any node for almost the whole game or take any node. Can't wait to see the devestation with better gear.

Ruins , correct strat stay outside the door
Nagrand, go stand on the side back to wall where the invisble detect spawn
BEM go stand on the bridge, control the bridge have the paladin use crusader aura to have advantage, Use tremor totem to dispell fear

In warsong gulch, team up with a potential flag carrier. (ie. disc priest or paladin, etc, etc.)

Then go get the flag wiht him, but force him to stick with you on the way back, kill everything that attacks him. Remember, you will be a slow mover over midfield, and you need time to stand still to dps, if your flag carrier sticks close enough, you can easily get it back to your base. All the while, try to intercept the flag carrier on the other side if possible, so keep an eye out for that.

I usually win with that tactic.

AB is the won I loose quite often myself because damned people keep sticking around me. 10+ in one spot in ab is bad, mkay? :P

bg's will always be much easier to box, but much more annoying at the exception of AV. My last ab/wsg was ages ago when i finished my token farming. eventually i'll return to them but the time/reward ratio is so much better in AV, not to mention the fun :)

God qft. I'll be at BS right after clearing the horde and I either stand there, and the rest of the alliance stands there. Then I'll mount up to go get something else figuring they want to defend .... and they all follow leaving the flag unguarded. Pisses me off to no end ;( It works in EOTS since zerging makes nodes cap faster. But in AB its just failtown.
