Ah I see. Never noticed that as something worth skipping for. Oh well.
Might as well put this here as it's still lingering in my mind:
I decided I didn't want to tank for once, so I queued a random as dps, and to test my shiny 2 new Lava Spines (sorry for the guy who wanted them a page back!)
3-guild group, me and someone else as the pugs
They were all decently geared at about ilvl350
Highlights, all directed at me lol:
Tank (Paladin) > slow down dps please you're wasting my taunts [oh noes taunts have reagents now?!?!!]
Healer > eat after you get res'd please you're wasting my mana [which was full and no where near going empty]
Tank reading checking every 2 odd pulls
i fucking hate people who don't eat food while im drinking for mana, then stand around waiting to be healed. mage put up table at the start and you had just as much opportunity to grab as many as i did. and its not like they're sacred cakes, most people wont even eat all of them before they log off
and fucking warlocks. "i wont drink, i'll just life tap to 30% and wait for my heal. i wont even soul evocation or eat some food". in combat when youre almost oom i can sympathise.
wiping to nef at 74,000 hp. ugh, hate this fight.

Seriously, every healer has a little OCD imp in them and cannot resist a health bar that sits low for too long, especially if they have the mana to restore it.
Honestly it's a bad habit that the latter half of TBC and all of WotLK raiding taught them: you'll never run out of mana. All healers should now un-learn it.
So, when last 2 players in arena kill each other at the same time, everyone lose?
Yes.
Nobody won, after all.
I've had that happen several times in past arena matches. Nothing however, compares to the time I was rezzed by the opposing team. I've never seen it happen anywhere before, haven't seen it since, have never heard anyone else mention it or have it happen to them or whatever.
RLS vs RPM, me(rogue) and their rogue died on top of each other, and for the next 10minutes it was 2v2 and hell. Finally their priest got into a spot where he was able to start rezzing and the frost mage got a good cc chain off across the map. I panicked yelling at my team to interrupt but they were too far. Suddenly the message appears over my head to accept/decline rez. I fucking lost it on vent. HE FUCKING REZZED ME HEAL ME IM UP and we then laughed hysterically over the next 30seconds as we won. Both teams were same faction, didn't know it was even possible.
husband and wife teams should be illegal in this (or any mmo) game. fucking unreal. Tank is great, doing 12k dps as a prot war, just fine for a pug, but his wife is a fucking shadowpriest pulling 3k. How the unholy hell does a SHADOWPRIEST do only 3k? Fuck sakes.
vamp embrace > swp > make sammiches
Pretty much.
