BG healer team

[Ualaa]

You can buy iLV 346 weapons, that are crafted.
You can get iLV 333 from Crucible of Carnage (Ring of Blood, equivalent).

The current pvp weapons are arena.
One handers like the Healer Mace, cost two week of capping points (5 wins per week).
Not necessarily two full weeks of points, I think I had 9 wins then bought it.

The two handers cost three weeks worth of wins.
Pretty sure its going to be two weeks of capping plus two or three games in week 3.

In 4.2 with the next Raid/Arena Season, the current Conquest gear will be straight honor.
With new Conquest stuff.
So until then, you need Arena or Rated BG's, before you can get an actual pvp weapon.

Ive been gone from pvp since shortly after wotlk launched. I wasnt aware there were no more honor weapons. I hate arenas. Im not even sure how i would play this team in arenas.

Prot/cat/holy?

I can picture myself losing constantly.

At this stage in arena, it is hard to break in with undergeared toons.
At least under pvp geared.

You'd probably be best off getting honor gear.
Possibly starting with the crafted resilience set, making gearing up less painful.

And then taking one at a time, in two's, and getting points that way.

That was/is my approach, with the DK's.
The arena season was a couple of months old, when I tried to break in.
Eighteen matches of 5's, without even a kill.
Of course the set up needed tweaking, and the honor grind was only 2/3rds done at that point... with crappy weapons on a 4x Melee team.

But anyway... running one toon at a time, in 2's, for a few weeks...
And building towards full honor gear...
Has been working well.

I really really enjoy this little team. I sometimes see pvp geared priests in the bgs with five people beating on them and they seem unkillable. Cant wait until i have three healers like that. Im already unkillable by regular random people. They simply cant do enough damage. I am pretty good at capping flags too when i turn broadcasting on. Sometimes people get so angry they come back to try to get me, over and over.

Even with my beginners set of crafted pvp gear, i am usually in the top five for healing on the alliance side. Top three if its a small bg. I have zero spirit on the pally and druid so when im out of mana im in trouble.

What hurts me is fear bombs that make the toons run clear out of sight. I usually can target a random horde and press my IWT key and get them back but its very annoying. i also hate arena geared warriors. I need to make a Spread Out key in isboxer so their damn whirlwind doesnt rape me.

Things i need to do:
Make a mouseover macro for lay on hands / hand of freedom
Pare down my clique binds
Look for an alternative to grid (as all healers it would be nice if grid let me actually target people - maybe my fault)
Get a little more honor for the 300 resil, two minute trinket (will be ~1500 resil on each toon then)
Start doing twos on each toon to get weapons (joined a pvp guild so this may be easy to accomplish; i will probably stick with healing so i dont have to waste G on more gear)
Get better weapons - i have not seen any crafted pvp weapons on the AH
Start using a Vee or Line formation once im at a spot i expect to stay at - im very open to aoe now
Finally, Is it possible to make a macro that changes my aura to crusader when mounted and concentration when i dismount?

With Grid, my DK's will target anyone they click on.
With Grid, my Paladin will cast something at anyone I click on, because I've set Clique to interpret Left/Right clicks as heals; the only click on a Grid frame that Clique interprets as target and not cast is Control Left Click.
But you can configure it however you like.
It is Clique and not Grid, that is preventing you from selecting targets with Grid.

As per Mosg2 in the DK Manifesto, I'm trying to use straight clicks.
I was using Alt + Left, Alt + Right, Ctrl + Left, Ctrl + Right, etc.
He was using Left, Right, Scroll Up, Scroll Down, Middle, Thumb 1, Etc.
Much easier to heal without mod keys, with the mouse.

If you don't have the two minute trinket, that will be #1 priority.
After that two pieces of gear for the +300 Resilience bonus, with a possible emphasis on Helm (Meta Gem) and/or Gloves (extra bonus, if its useful).

Two of the remaining five pieces, for the four-piece bonus might be good.
Especially if they have sockets which you need to activate your Meta gem.
But I would also consider going +Res pieces in slots where you have no Resilience.

Until 4.1, stacking Resilience is probably the best you can do, in pvp.
After 4.1, resilience calculation changes such that over 32.5% (just over 3k Res) has less mitigation for the same amount of Resilience.

You could ask for a Blacksmith with all recipes to link you, in trade.
Or possibly search wowhead.
