PvP Gear yes/no?

[Sibroc]

Ok, I got my first arena experience this weekend. I did 2s with 2 enchancement shamans. Today I reached the weekly pointcap. My rating is 1011 atm and Im nearly fully arena geared.

Around the first 20 matches it was realy hard for me to get used to the realy fast and burstheavy arena games. All I did was 5-boxing dungeon pve before. But after I learned it the hard way I changed some of my macros and realy had a blast.

What I do atm (I am only at 1011 ratio as I wrote) is just to try to win within the first 20 secs. I choose my target and throw everything in. I dont cc anything... well I try to interrupt heals if I can but overall I just burst my first target down. Alltogether I won 113 games and lost somewhat in the 60s (including the first 20 matches I lost in a row because I had no idea what I was doing).

Next week I will be full arena geared. Wonder if there is any other reason to continue playing arena but the funfactor? I dont think I will be able to reach the top to get a title after this season (and I think you cant get titles ins 2s these days, right?) so is there anything that would come at higher ratios?

Maybe I will just start to gear my next 2 shamies so i will be able to try some 5vs5 in the future even if I think this would be more work that fun for me :-)
