    It's kinda funny - early in the season they were saying "we don't think burst is a problem in pvp" and now they are effectively saying just the opposite.

    Personally, I think they will have to address the healing issue sooner rather than later...some healing classes (resto druids, disc priests) are already very strong in pvp, and this change just makes them stronger.

    It will be interesting to see the new arena teams / strats that come from this...

    This is Blizzard's style. There are countless examples of them publically stating one thing then going 180 on it shortly after.

    End of TBC - "We don't like fear and abilities that take contol away from the player and would like to move away from it as a PvE gimmick" - (Old Kingdom, Halls of LIghtning, Utgarde Pinnacle... etc)

    Hunter pets - Taming spirit wolves was on unforseen ability, but we feel its ok and won't be removing it. (two weeks later it was hotfixed)

    Recently ICC Release - "we plan on having 6 weeks inbetween wings in ICC" - later bumped to two weeks with no reason as to why.

    I could go on, but you get the idea. Whatever Blizzard employees say - its pure crap and WILL be shitcanned at the drop of a hat with no explantion or justification.

    haha, I like that idea. I didn't think of how fun that could be if this ridiculous change goes live. When I got my shaman geared I tried 4x resto and would just sit and tank several people, to the point where people would actually just run away. A quad box healer could become practically invincible

    No, we are making the change before the start of the season. We wanted to give players a chance to experiment with it and make gear and team choices accordingly.

    It's possible it is live right now.
