In arena, there are limited opposition. If a "typical" team is three DPS and two healers, taking out one of the DPS basically reduces the oppositions chance to take you out, by a very large degree.

It worked well for him.



The instructional video was titled (and I saved it as) Aelli_-_Arena_Guide.avi
Not sure if that's what it is called on this forum or not.
I agree with this assessment 100%. If you have the DPS to blow another DPS up, what is the point in targeting a healer first. If the healer has no DPS to heal, well the other team isn't going to kill you ;p

I've found the pressure from 4x HB spams to be so devastating in arena that you can put out enough damage in a matter of seconds to ultimately OOM a single healer. On the other hand my Paladin gets blown up so quickly that usually it becomes a simple DPS race ;p
