*ATTENTION* PVP PPL
 

*AHEM*

I know some of you P99 Reddies have shown interest in recruiting Abacab for your basketball team. I feel I should inform you that the man can't even PvP in WoW. I play a healing priest, he plays a DPS warrior. In a duel, the winner should be obvious. 'CEPT NOT 'CAUSE I ABSOLUTELY KICKED HIS ASS. So reconsider. Do you really want someone shootin' hoops for you that can't even take down a Tralina?




No I'm not resizing this

tl;dr: Abacab is bad at pvp, I am the best.

Skanklina has 3.9k resilience could only crit her for 13k after 38k was absorbed... Was a sad day for this hero.

Tralina refuses to fight me without vicious gladiator in some vanilla style combat

Clicking is bad.

I refuse to believe someone with 3.9k resil is a clicker.

Like, its not possible and if it is I don't want to know. DON'T WANT TO KNOW

You can get 4k resilience easily these days...

Run BH get free 372 viscous armor from a PvE encounter

Join a 2's team get 10k conquest points from slaughtering the 500-1500's bracket, and buy a full set of epic pvp gear... at that point you either gem stamina or resilience and you therefore have 4k resil and like 144k HP

So yes, you can get top level PvP gear by clicking

id like to extend an offer to tralina to join the wnba

I thought 3.5k resil was from t1 pvp epic set, but 4k was from t2, which is only acquired after 2200 rating (not that you couldn't pay a good price in gold to cheese that).

Umm... *ahem* Yes. Like no WOW once Rock the Red Releases.

Plenty of people fly under the radar. Gear doesn't mean shit though. Top 5 in your battle group and I might say I refuse to believe they click.

gear means a lot...

I could have the exact same skills as a top 5 PvPer, but if I'm rolling in with 372 heroic raid gear (ashkandi, T11.5 etc) I'll get rolled by my PvP equivalents simply because PvP gear reduces a shit ton of damage, while PvE gear is designed to make you deal out more damage.

The issue is they don't overlap, that fact Tralina can turn my 51k hits into mere 11k scratches (when she can heal for 16k) puts me at a large disadvantage. You can say skill is a factor but some of the best PvPer's are loaded with resilience, stamina, and use tank specs (blood DK anyone?) simply because they can out-live any DPS thrown at them.

But then again my major complaint about WoW PvP is it's reactionary, it's all about counters and CC, so certain specs have clear distinct advantages by having more survivability and crowd control techniques (frost mages, sub rogues, restro druids, and disc priests) making them near impossible to kill in a 1v1 situation unless major mistakes are made.
