So whats all the MBer's 5v5 ratin up to atm? I hit 1405 and still going strong with a priest and druid as healers. Just curious how well others are doing.
zero. with a ret paly though..
Yeah I need to find a few reliable healers to play with so I haven't tried this season.
Im at 1022, but i just got started. to bad my healer is moving to another city though... But i have a full furious protpala healer that wants to try me out so lets see what happens ;)
600 so far 4 manning the 5v5s so far, but only doing my 10 games a week really lol. gotta find a healer willing to join my team.
1600ish. Haven't played nearly as much as I planned on cause my priest has been flaky lately. Should have been 1900 first week if we were smart.
For those with many games worth of experience under their belts, in general do you find it better to immediately move in to attack or hang out by a pillar and wait for them?
At 1400 I ran in all the time till i hit about 1600 then all the real teams start to play on my BG So at a low level team it is best to run in! untill you hit 1500+ You dont want them to plan a strat on you you rush in they dont know who to go for and by the time they do...2 of them are dead in my position lol
Well my healer from last season has completely disappeared, so only a few hundred. Recruited a full furious priest last week, but then he never logged on and quit the team the other day with no notice.
I don't even know where to look for healers at this point, there just aren't many on my server. Everyone already knows who I am, I used to get offers all the time when I had my paladin, now - nothing.
Hard time finding healers now also.. Seems everyone plays pvp dps spec now that there is dualspec they just switch over to dps when they go pvp instead of staying heals (raid spec)... So all the healer classes has dps pvp gear not heals! (that and everyone plays nub dks now)

Only shamans, just edit the shamans for druids or w/e to check other classes.
I just wish i had more time to play, podbots have not played anything this week yet :(.
Anyone had some good games lately?
My pala and i had some realy good games vs some 2k+ rated teams. FRAPS FOOD =)
THig the SKgaming link is a bit slow btw
I'm clearly PVP inept - running 3 shammies, Boomkin and holy paladin (no dedicated healer), I've run 40 games with 1 win, and that was against a 4 person team that I think was just farming arena points.
I've tried rushes, I've tried defensive postioning, using focus targets so they don't see who I am really targetting, etc.
I keep trolling the mbox forum to pull up other nuggets of info, but I think I need way more practice.
teamrating 2060 but just 1700 personal at toons, I've also played some games with randoms 2346 lineup shame on me :<
Anyone there? LOL
I think I'm rated around 88 at the moment. For the last two weeks I queue 10 games, and half way through switch from my priest to paladin so they all get points. Lack of healers and FoK anbeing DK grabbed all over the place hasn't motivated me to play 5v5 really.
But I did get 1310 in 3v3 so far with minimal effort.. so getting those relenetless pieces slowly.
woo hit 1620 tonight. switched back to pally healer. Silence immune is so nice. I dont know why but having a real hard time with wizard cleave teams those pesky warlock/ele sham/frost mage combos directed at my main shaman every time sucks. Grounding totem only goes so far...
I am just spittballing here, but I am curious if anyone is planning on doing rated Bgs once they come out with other boxers? I understand that some BGs are harder for boxers with multiple objectives. I am curious none the less to see if there would be any interest in congregating to a certain server?
Im down for the long haul on that. It will be hard at first, Im sure you will run into Relentless equipped premades where one rogue/paladin/dk can take on your whole group of shamans.
I just started last night doing 5v5 this season with a pally healer. Man I got stomped badly went 1-6 before my pally went AWOL for the night. Was not exactly the way I planned on starting out.
haha I can't get anywhere in 3v3 as straight 3 shaman either. Most teams either global me right away, or warriors Bladestorm my ass, or rogues lock me down. Always something....
Unless I quit the game for some reason, I plan on putting a serious effort forth in rated BGs. I think there is some very strong potential in EOTS/AB/WSG for 3 separate boxer groups. I also believe that a 4boxer+dedicated healer is much stronger than 5box dps/hybrid.
A 15man BG team comprised of 3 4xshaman/4xwarlock groups each with a dedicated healer would be unstoppable in these battlegrounds. (I say warlock because saturday I dinged 80 on my 4x lock team... and they are ALREADY just stupid awesome in BGs)
So ya, I'd be game. I always wished there were hardcore pvp boxers I could hang out with on a daily basis.
God asonimie, dont make me level my warlocks =(
warrior elemental shaman holypaladin
my 5v5 lineup is warrior lock ele shamy holypaladin diszi priest or 4 ele shamans holypaladin
mostly we play that "normal" lineup but sometimes i do also some games with my toons working very well since 3.2.2 15-1
yeah i have a secound resto spec but i didn't use that spec for pvp .. also not for pve ... that was just wasting 1k gold^^
Finally played some games this week.
1911
God I wish. Possible to make a movie? I'm struggling badly
I finally hit 1000 in 3s. But I need at least 2 more weeks of arena points to buy the chest......this is pissing me off.
Where did Ellays toons go... tried to armory him this morning to see how he's coming along in arena... no dice.
Ah nm Gorefiend horde now. WHATS THE STORY MORNING GLORY. no arena team wtf?
Still 0 - only played 10 games so far but zOMGwtfBBQ (as they say) I won one! (three actually but two were no-shows)
Got really lucky as they didn't seem to have any resilience, focused on one of the alts first not the main toon (luckily as I don't have a leader swap setup yet DOH!) and also kept on LOSing their own healer.
Aelli busy man atm he got 1517 then xfered to horde hasnt really had time to play atm.
I'm so tempted to just transfer my Alliance toons to Horde because most of my guild swapped over a few weeks ago and I can't find any healers willing to spend enough time with me to learn to get 5v5 down.
woot 1700 for me! and going strong still in 2 piece hatefull lawl... and 1/2 hateful BG gear.. or w/e lol i cant wait to get some sick gear~! wtf boom!
wish arena points came a little faster but i guess once ya hit 1800 it starts to get quite nice. I do feel the power with every upgrade of relentless from hateful!
What type of shamans is everyone using? I just can't seem to get even past 100 this season as alliance on us cyclone
I'm on cyclone as well but running Orc's ( always have ), team rating is pretty modest right now though. Main reason for that is I just lost interest in PvP at the start of s7 when I started seeing every team running around with multiple 35k hp+ people it got really frustrating watching people eat entire lvb combo's without even touching a cd, trying to work through that though. Sitting in the mid 1600's atm, just havnt done many games yet, MMR is floating in the 1900s though.
I don't know if it would be worth it to swap my toons to either orc or tauren. It just seems eithe racial would work better in pvp. Maybe two of each?
go orc, the stam buff is nice but the extra spellpower will make it so u will get those annoying guys that live with 2% health down..
the 5% buff of stamina is like 400health.. whens that last time all ur characters got down to 400 health then came back to win? i dont think so, but how many times have people got that stupid almost dead, run behind pillar or pali bubble then come back to beat u?
