WoW PvP Guide - Successful Arena And Battlegrounds Tactics

By Mark Fulke

I've been into World of Warcraft for quite a while but always spent my time playing PvE content. I was taking part to several raids every week, but after 3 years of playing this game I kinda got tired of raids and decided to try PvP. Unfortunately, my first steps into arena and battlegrounds were a total failure, everything and everyone was moving so fast and I died instantly most of the times. Nobody wanted in their team because I had no achievements and no experience so, to improve I had to resort to a WoW PvP guide.

This WoW PvP guide really has helped me improve by a lot and just after a few pages I read, I became aware of the stupid mistakes I made in PvP, playing my class. Not only this guide has shown me how to correct the flaws in my arena and PvP gameplay, it also provided me with a whole bunch of PvP strategies. Therefore, I'm going to share here, a few strategies for BGs and WoW PvP arena.

Arathi Basin - PvP Strategy. The best way to dominate an Arathi Basin battleground is to get hold of the Blacksmith as fast as possible. The Blacksmith is located in the center of the battlefield and by controlling this base your realm will get equal reach for the other 4 bases. As this WoW PvP guide has instructed me, the second base as importance is the Lumber Mill. This base has the highest ground and you can see all the battlefield from here. Attackers are easily spotted and this makes the defense easier as well. Any attack can be reported before the attackers reach the base. Holding these 2 main bases, the third is basically random to attack. It is best, though, to take posession of the base that is closer to your realm's entrance, Farm (for horde) or Stable (for alliance). Once your realm has 3 bases, defense is very important. Three bases plus defense wins the battle.

WoW Arena Strategy for Mage - Rogue. The rogue rushes out with his sprint on and saps one opponent, immediately starting DPS (with stunlock) on the other one. The mage assists the rogue and if the sapped one uses their trinket, the mage must sheep right away. By the time the sheep effect is gone, the first target should be dead. If there is a paladin in the other team, he is the target to begin until he bubbles up. When he does, rogue uses cloak of shadows and vanish and mage, invisibility. When the bubble passes, just re-open on the paladin and kill him. As a DPS team, it is important to attack first, the one that has the weakest defenses and CC the other one, regardless which one is the healer.

I hope what I wrote here will be of at least a little help to any World of Warcraft player at the beginning of their WoW PvP content. However, this might not be enough to help you improve by a lot, so I strongly recommend the WoW PvP guide I've been following. It's pretty solid and covers all the PvP aspects in the game. - 32500
