I like to play PvP. I am Arcane.
Every Sap, Stun, Arcane Lock, fear, and every other spell that locks me down.
I have no defense against.
Fell free to kill me…often.
All damage and no defense.
EDIT:
Changed my spec to Fire today.
I was with you until that last line. Most of the time the damage isn’t even there. That’s why arcane blast is getting a 20% increase in PvP. I’m not sure how much it will help seeing you won’t be able to cast it much versus competent players in arena. But in BGs it will be a nice buff.
Blink (Not Shimmer) breaks CC Iceblock, trinket and sometimes altertime?
Blink does work for some things but not for stuns, Sap, Arcane, Fire or Frost lock, sleep, and a few others that I cannot think of right now but you get the point.
That’s what I meant by defense. I have none for those
BTW I switched my spec to Fire today.
Blink - Teleports you forward 20 yds or until reaching an obstacle, and frees you from all stuns and bonds
The problem is that most of the things I mentioned above make everything, and I mean everything in my task bars unusable until they wear off.
As a fire mage who enjoys a bg, we still have the same issues. You are thinking going fire is gonna somehow give you resistances to every sap, stun, “fire” lock, fear??
I tried Fire in about a dozen BG’s and I was absolutely awful. Death came instantly several time in a row before I could even get off a shot. Then I realized the one attacking me over and over again had 3 times the health I have.
I am back to Arcane. I guess I am done doing BG’s…I am near the 15000 Honor cap anyway.
Hmm. Interesting. I just joined bgs just to goof off and I was the highest dps and had so many kill blows that it was insane. It could be a gear issue. I did get stunned and cc’d but mostly I was wrecking everyone, especially when combustion was active. But this was not any rated games or anything, just some pug stuff.
