The Journey To Rank 1 -
01.29.2010The Rank 1 Push Experience
By Irreplacable
As I logged on this Tuesday to see my Relentless Gladiator title, I was happy and relieved at the same time. While throughout the season I was confident that our team was the best the Battle Group had to offer, there were roadblocks in our way, particularly the last few weeks. This experience, being my first time doing the rank 1 push was something I will likely never do again, but was also a really fun game experience. It has given me a different outlook on the arena community as well.
My team in 5v5 started out as the remnants of my s6 5v5 squad. We had 2 transfers from our old team, and we were looking to expand. We envisioned running Ret/Hunter/Ele Shaman/Druid/Priest. While we attempted this, we eventually came to realize quickly that we couldn’t find a solid replacement for our old shaman and hunter that left us. While just about ready to give up on 5s, we decided to just run with people that we knew and abandon the fact that we might not find a winning comp. Well, needless to say we lucked out and discovered early on in the season that Protection Warriors bring A LOT to the table. We picked up an arms warrior friend of ours who is on a lot, and our friend Mistaclean, a gladiator arms warrior who was gearing up protection from his PVE raiding. We played, and 50 games later, no losses…. (more…)

Resilience Change -
01.20.2010Looks like blizzard is finally taking a step in the right direction in regards to the out of control damage being thrown around in Arena’s. Hopefully with this resilience change the game will slow down in pace just enough so that arena isnt all about damage output and burst. Make sure to stay tuned for any further details on this change as the new season begins.
Official Blizzard Quote:
We are currently in the process of applying a hotfix to buff resilience. While some modifications may be made, we intend to have this buff in effect for the remainder of the Wrath of the Lich King expansion.
The change will double the value of resilience in reducing damage done by players. So depending on their current amount of resilience, characters might experience a 10 to 20% decrease in damage taken from other players. The critical strike chance and critical strike damage reduction components of resilience will remain unaffected by this change.
We are also aware of the possibility that this change will make healing in PvP too difficult to counter. While we are not making any immediate changes to address this issue, we have prepared some further changes that will allow us to quickly deploy a PvP-only healing adjustment if we feel it is warranted.
We will be applying this change very soon while we are between Arena seasons so we can evaluate how it works in multiple PvP scenarios for the upcoming Arena season, and as we continue to prepare for Cataclysm. As we have mentioned previously, one of the goals for Cataclysm is to have a PvP environment where it is harder to regularly achieve so much damage and healing in relatively few global cooldowns compared to what we currently have in the game. -
