I had thought about this but it still seems like unreliable damage, since lightning bolt damage is pretty poor to begin with, and you only have a 50% chance of being facing your target when the cast finishes.
If I stuck with it and got their gear up to my DK's level, refined my macros and got used to using round robin, thunderstorm and earthbind properly, I'm sure it'd make managing melee much easier. All of that requires actually pressing buttons, though. I'm too used to being able to semi-AFK faceroll 20-0 with my DK's.
Actually, something I haven't noticed as much yet (because I haven't PvP'd with them much yet), is being at a default disadvantage because I'm Alliance. I imagine the BE racial is still a nightmare to deal with in arena.
