Input needed

[Reglar]

So, since I have all the heroics on farm I decided to go try the arena.

I'm 2-24 (those 2 wins were against idiots), and am looking for input.

I'm doing 3v3, and have my druid as resto with 850 resil and 2 elemental shammies in mostly pve gear, they only have about 150 resil (19k hp, 2k +spell, 30% crit, 8% haste, 184 hit)

I open with the IWIN combo in another thread here (target one person, but attacking focus with elemental mastery, flame shock, lava burst), sometimes I drop the guy right away, but usually don't, and my magma's/thunderstorms on close in melee targets don't seem to do much to them.

Matchmaking scores for the teams I lost to have been from 800 to 1000, I'm around 600 right now.

while I know I'm running into teams that are rebuilding since Season 7 just opened, but I would have expected to have done a bit better.

So I am looking for any advice experienced Arena multiboxers have in the 3v3 category, it seems to be a nukefest.

I am considering changing from resto to boomkin and run without any healer, but not convinced I'll see much difference.

I'm not interested in doing 5s due to the perception I have of less teams in that bracket.

its hard to stay alive with 24k hp and 850 resil. I cant even imagine what horrid things they would do to you.

I would go boomkin. The majority of my wins were from nuking someone in the opening seconds of the match. If that initial burst did not kill, I either had a loss or barely pulled out a win.

I did arenas with my shamans because I needed some starter arena gear and was too lazy to farm BGs.

Basically I was unable to survive in 2 v 2 and 3 v3.
5 vs 5 was another story.

In 5 vs 5 with 5 elemental shamans I usually was able to drop one or two from the other team before they even were able to react. After that it is just an easy ride.

Of course, I have got my fair share of loses, but most of them were funny in some way. Once got swarmed by 5 frost mages with water elemental and that mage clone spell... I just stayed there and healed myself until they killed me. Was so amazed by the lots of frostbolts flying around that I forgot to fight back

Nobody is queing up for 5s in my battlegroup. Multiple times last week i tried 5s only to bored for 45 min.

I must have gotten lucky last night I played 19 games and all queues popped in 30 seconds, and I never got the same team twice.

Woot, not to hijack the thread but I think once I am fully geared out for PvP , good things will come

I was able to hit 1075 in 3v3 so far, and im still mostly hateful with a few furious / deadly here and there. 19k hp's unbuffed. I would def go boomkin and blow someone up on the inc.

BTW, You have a pally healing your 5's right? If he doesn't have a 3's team he should play a few games with me and Bodhisage. We went like 18-9 with a hateful/deadly pally from our guild. Just ran some games cuz we're not having luck finding anyone. With a furious/relentless healer we could easily go 2200+ We were beating 1900 teams last night like it was a joke. We're running wizard cleave. Let him know for me .
