Anyone does Serious Arena pvp here? as in serious about strategies etc etc?
I play on Gorgonash server
My Armory Link
Armory not accurate...

BUT couldnt get the exclusive title "Gladiator" due to unfriendly latency
I could never pummel a 1.5 sec cast timer spell unless I got it interupted by dmg.
Most time when I'm chasing someone, I need to overlap a lil to get into melee range ><
used to have 400+ms latency, but nowdays 600-700...
then the team in the end gave up and selling arena points

Anyone here experience the same problem as me? trying to work your ass up but felt so fustrated with latency that set you in an unfair environment as US ppl? I felt I'm handicapped...

Or any successfull stories of FULL TEAM OF FELLOW MALAYSIANS manage to get Gladiator titles?

probably I can get some advise from you on arena
I know I had lots to learn, but I'm stuck, really stuck, no idea how

my healing partner cant seems to pull off 2-3 heals when we met double dps team
and I felt helpless to my partner seeing him being drain down by druid/lock combo while I'm being chain root/cyclone...

I love arena no matter 2s 3s 5s
each bracket has it's fun and I would say 2s is not easier than 5s
my healer is a warrior himself actually, he sold a warrior bought a well geared arena pally, it's already abt a month. anyway I cant blame him too..
he manage to get 1.9k rating with lock, but hanging with 1.8k with me
another possibility is that I suck bad... But I want to know why I suck too and want to get better. as long I can break through this dilemma, I can never go above 2k+ rating. My gears come easy with easy phat points from 5s 900-1k+ points per week but I felt very down. COuldnt solve the puzzle...

aggro, my arena time is nvr consistent, will play 2v2 3v3 whenever there's ppl. btw what's your name in gorgonash?

well my 2v2, not to say I want to go cookie butter build, just that he's my friend that I know, that want to play, so we play, yea he's a pally. and yes he Ebay his pally ... he's learning...

to Quaz,
Your ratings is pretty impressive I would say, keep up the good work
I play 5s more than 2s and 3s, I would have to disagree with you that latency wont be too much a problem. In 2k-2.1k ratings team with a solid strategy will make it there provided with good execution and being serious enough.

I've chat with many top page teams in 5s. well for my battlegroup, even 1.7k rating teams are all decked out with all possible arena gears or close.

What seperate the top page team with the 2k's rating teams is Execution/Time frame in terms of offensive or defensive. The team that can do it shortest time frame will triumph over the other team.

I see that you doing good with 4 dpsers and of cuz 4 dpsers will have the dmg to preassure the opponent even tho you dont interupt a heal or interupt a spell. Where your team are forcing the opponent to play your game.

Here's the quote from someone I respect "Their 3 men felt like putting out more dps than our 4 men dpsers". Execution/time frame.

Kicks/pummel are very important, as it prevent the burst that your team gonna take,
For example, your teammate at 5%, you'r on the shadow priest and he's casting Mind Blast, *dont you wish that you can kick that Mind Blast so that your teammate dont die?
and also important to prevent an almost kill to be suddenly topped up.
I'm sure you seen many situations that your focus fire target at about 1%-5% then it got healed to 20+% again.

and again, you'r a good pvper, gladiator is not far from our reach, best of luck
