Help! I suck at PvP!
What's up guys? Alright, so I'm new to multiboxing this last month, and I'm sorting through stuff slowly. I have a quad shaman team with my gf playing holy paladin. I have a five balance druid team that I play alone.
The shamans+pally team was 39, but every bracket I stop and PvP (14, 19, 24, 29, 34, and 39 etc). The same for my druids. Both my teams are level 41 now.
I started on a new server, with no friends. I have no glyphs (not even entirely sure how glyphs work, I'm a pre wotlk player), I have no BOA gear (again, not entirely sure...), and certainly no props to instance running or gear support. I'm just wearing what I get from questing or random drops.
Here's what I recognize are reasons that I might be doing so poor in PvP:
1) I recognize that low level PvP is not a replica of end-game, and that talents and abilities will become available later that change the balance of PvP, and maybe my shaman team, and druid team, aren't going to shine at low level compared to hunters or ret paladins, etc.
2) I recognize that I have awful gear, no BOA, no glyphs, etc.
3) I recognize that both shamans and balance druids are going to be so much stronger with better gear later on, so I shouldn't get all emo and ragequit, haha.
Here are some skill problems that I can't seem to figure out:
1) A problem that I honestly cannot figure out is how to get my slaves to face a melee target when it's running all the hell around me. I realize there is thunderstorm, and earthbind totem (I am not high level enough for root), but it's to no avail. Ualaa gave me a tip of using my IWT hotkey (alt+j for me) and making a key map to push "s" my backup key, so they face the target and immediately backup a step to stop moving. This is obviously an awesome tip, except what do I do when the little bastards are running around my guys nonstop, haha?
2) Fear. If I get AOE feared, at my level I don't have a trinket and I just not got grounding totem. Fear can send my guys far enough apart so that they are out of follow range, so I have to gather them one at a time by getting in range w/ them. Does that sound right?
3) Healing. My shaman team for example, I have a hard time keeping up with healing what am I doing wrong? By the time I see someone is being attacked, it's almost instant he's at 1/2 hp, and before a heal even goes off he's dead. This is surely due to the level and bad gear, etc, but what should I be using as a typical heal for my shamans? They are dranei so I use the Naaru whenever it's needed, which is a little bonus.
Anyway, I'm just fishing for some PvP tips. I have a feeling the main opinion is that at my low level, it's not even a good representation of what it is later on, and I should focus on leveling and not get discouraged by the PvP now. If I had glyphs and BOA items, maybe it'd be a different story, I am not sure.
Thanks =)
