An ability to get arena points outside of the weekly update would have been nice for when I was 50-100 points shy of my next piece.
What happened to rated BGs with arena gear? I was looking forward to that but now I can't seem to find any info on it beyond what was posted two+ months ago.
I would assume, once you have a high rating, you'd just do Battlegrounds.
Because... you will destroy in BG's, and avoid the cleave type teams too.
Plus, your high rating is good for the entire season.
So not playing means you keep the rating without risk of losing it.
And still make a lot of arena points just from the BG playing.
The only reason to really keep going is if you want to raise the rating.
It's daily quests only.. 175 points a week will never get you gearedQuote:

When I was battleground gearing my shammies, I ran mostly AV's 12-14 hours a day for 5 weeks... at 25 pts per BG, that would have been a lot of points.

I bolded and underlined the operative words in the patch note for you Ualaa. No matter how many BGs you run you can't get more than 175 pts a week. (7x25=175 for the slower math people like myself :P)
I'm of course referencing the official PTR patch notes and not MMO-Champion.
I think the only way to get arena points from BGs is to play "Rated BGs". Im not sure wether or not you can just join rated BGs like we do now or if you actually have to have a full team of 15 players to play f.g. Arathi Basin.
I wonder what the glyph of fire elemental totem will do now.... cut it down to 5 min? Increase the HP of the totem? or increase damage of said elemental?

If the glyph adds something really fun to elementals I can see myself making a 2nd elemental pvp build again w/ the glyph for world pvp adventures.
I was working on a 4 dk team just for fun and was really looking forward to 4x army of the dead. Sorry to see it get nerfed. I never really thought it was THAT powerful of a move anyway. (maybe that's just because i instakilled the DK that summoned them and they all vanish though i donno lol)
I also love the lay on hands change. when playing solo it was so annoying to get the paladin to nothing, he bubbles heals to full, then beat him down again somehow, to have him lay on hands instantly to full health and laugh and spit on me while he finishes me off.
