The good news is that I really like the team for BGs, and I can feel my power slowly growing in BGs with each gear increase. I think Shodokan nailed part of my problem... There's so many useful things you could be doing that it's hard to pick one. With shamans, you can somewhat set up a lot of your defensiveness via totem-farms, but it's a little harder with the DK/pally setup.

At my level of (in)experience in arenas, I guess I'm trying to find a good first strategy that's going to help me get to modest ratings levels and allow even more gear upgrades. I just haven't hit that groove yet.

I want to blame my 219 weapons for a lot of it, but comparing DPS numbers in something like Rawr, there isn't a huge sustained difference (I suggest that it's all about the burst difference though).

I've been using Seal of Command, but I'm thinking of ditching it for a glyphed Seal of Righteousness. Any thoughts, gang?
