gdi that's not the answer I wanted. oh well, pali it is.

Nothing wrong with the answer.

Top Paladin/Priest: 2633
Top Warrior/Priest: 2660
Top X/Priest: 2938

Top female priest/warrior is probably 2100 though

You can make disc/arms work if you're both amazing, but holy/arms can get a lot further a lot easier. Your games will be a lot shorter as a priest, for better or for worse. Paladin survivability and longevity is 10x better, but priests can purge some very important buffs, mana burn, and assist with dps (smite spec, smite glyph, power infusion holy fire > smite > smite > smite is nothing to laugh at). As a disc priest you'll need full spirit and mp5 gear if you want to keep up with other healers. I've got 500 mp5 while casting, yet other healers gear for straight spellpower crit and haste and they still outmana me easily just because their mana regen mechanics(divine plea, innervate, and watershield) are so overpowered and their spell costs are much more efficient. For instance, priest flash heal costs 700 mana and paladin flash heal costs 300 mana and the paladin's heals for more.

Use vent so you can communicate better.

Learn to stay near a pillar so you can line of sight CC and so your warrior can intervene back to you and line of sight if he's in danger.

Gladius is a must have arena add-on.

Spell Alerter is an amazing mod to anticipate incoming CC, it's very crucial that you can get certain debuffs off as quickly as possible. Thanks to Spell Alerter warning you that spells are going off, you can start spamming dispel/cleanse before the spell even lands so it will be off instantly.

Interface > Buffs and Debuffs > Show only dispellable debuffs on raid frames

Afflicted is a great mod to show enemy cooldown timers, especially interrupt abilities. If you can't fake cast interrupts then you're not going to get very far.

Don't try to rock PVE gear, it won't be worth it unless it is AMAZING PVE gear AND you guys are good enough for it to not matter if you're getting hit harder.

Holy fuck I just read a post by Krye that did not involve his dick in any part of the post.

Also lolWoW

SK100 shows:

Top arms/holy:
2945
2865
2841

Top arms/disc:
2838
2660
2618

The maximum potential of the class doesn't matter for her though, 1700~ will get your "Rival" (top 10% of arena teams). If she has no clue what she's doing and/or if she's undergeared she'll have a hard enough time getting to 1800.

hmm ty for the info krye. I will probably stick to pali then.

Basically boytoy doesn't have time for ff so we decided to make new toons on wow that we could pair up for arena on the side.

Our last two were shaman and hunter which pretty much sucked ass for a pair in arena.

So I have been lvling pali with his war, but as a holy pali, and I hate healing on it in comparison to priest.

My priest is 50 so I was tempted to switch to that once we got to 50 (we're at 40 now). But if pali is really easier for arena then I'll stick with that. I can always do other bs on my hunter if I really hate doing other shit on pali at 80.

I'm not looking to be in the top but to do well enough to get some nice pvp gear out of it for fun/bgs.

You can get full current season offset except belt and boots, and two seasons outdated mainset without any arena rating. They've lowered the costs on a lot of pieces, so it's easier to play just for fun now

nice :D

I'll let you know how we do when we get there and I'm sure I'll end up pestering you a lot about it lol

Do you guys plan on doing any PVE? Getting a good weapon will do wonders for helping you get 1800 so you can get your PVP weapon. Melee classes are pretty weapon dependent, and warriors especially are pretty gear dependent, so it might be even more necessary for him.

On my alt DK I have a full set of gear, except my weapon is from a 5 man dungeon, so I can't kill shit.

[Ksandra]

ya we plan on doing both, so hopefully can get some decent shit to help us get other decent shit. XD

Certain trinkets are also really OP. Deathbringer's Will from 25 man Saurfang is literally like 3 or 4 times better than any other available trinket. The proc effect lasts 30 seconds compared to the usual 15 from other trinkets, and the itemization is perfect. Solace of the defeated/fallen grants a shit ton of spellpower and mp5 and it's from 25 man ToC

What races are you guys playing? If you're human you can rock two PVE trinkets in PVP, it's pretty broken.

[Ksandra]

we're both draenei and I'll def work towards those trinkets

[Krye]

Draenei is shit, reroll

Actually I guess it's not too bad for you to be draenei, cause the resil PVP trinket is nice + it allows him to gear more offensively

But make him reroll human, double pve trinkets + weapon expertise is fucking pro
