So 4 weeks of Arena experience and you had...what for a rating? No really...you and your ilk who have been playing for years and look down your noses at people who don't have the playtime you do like they're somehow lesser players are @#%^ing ridiculous.
Four weeks? I think I was hovering around 1700ish doing between ten and twenty games a week, without... you know, actually respeccing for PvP. That came later.
And guess what? Your Arena rating is
still around 1450. It's been a good bit longer than four weeks at this point.
Wait, wait... let me anticipate your response. "But I don't care about PvP anymore, you elitist evil meanie poopieface!" And that complete lack of experience or interest in PvP is what makes you
completely unqualified to even enter this discussion.
You think PvP works in ways that it simply does not. You think Arenas work in ways that they simply do not. Hence the complete and utter idiocy of the responses you've provided; well, combined with your natural "challenges".

Not necessarily to the extent that Shaman can. Trueshot Aura? Great if you've got another non-MM Hunter on your team...@#%^ing useless as a "group buff" any other time. Expose Weakness has a better group benefit than TSA.
Are you as complete of a motherf
ucking ****** as you seem? Good f
uckoing god, man. Think before you use that goddamn keyboard.
What buffs do Rogues provide? If you're as much of a ****** as you appear to be, none! They don't have anything that shows up in your buff bar. Nothing!
If you're not a complete moron, bringing a healing debuff, reappliable snare and stuns. Hunters have one (insignificant) group buff, but they also bring a global snare, healing debuff (not ideal) and mana drains. Hell, I even specified this. Read this again, dumbass;

Allow me to break this down for you; all classes are group buffing in a PvP sense. Yes, even Rogues (and Hunters). All abilities beyond straight damage work as a component of the group on the whole.
So even if your class is best at strictly buffing your teammates, so what? You still bring less to the group than other classes. Hunters provide damage and a global snare ('buffed easy escape'), in addition to decent fire-and-forget mana drains, dispels and a MS effect. Even though their only 'group buff' in a PvE sense is TSA, their group contribution is enormous.
Stop thinking in terms of PvE and start thinking in terms of PvP when you talk about PvP. I know it's hard for you, since you don't know the first thing about PvP, but then you might want to let the people who actually have a clue talk.
How hard is this to understand? People who have more than two bloody braincells to rub together can get it in their first go! Well, second.

Rather than just referencing that it was removed (because some of us have better things to do than check the patch notes daily), you have to make it personal.
Actually, I didn't reference the patch notes.
Yes, dumbass. You're trying to defend your idiocy by referncing things that don't even exist, and are never going to happen. Doing some basic factchecking before you hit the "Post" button is usually a good idea if you're not trying to appear as a complete and utter moron.
Just a thought.

Cleaves and Swipes also defy the logic of selective targeting. I know you're probably some sickly uber-dork in mama's basement who hasn't ever done a real day's work, but if you've ever swung something heavy...like say...a sledgehammer or an axe...you'd know that you can't exactly micro-manage the arc.
Yeah... because real-world logic has such a great place in discussions of a game where you can throw great big balls of fire without burning yourself and you have a five yard reach with a dagger as any melee class. "BUT BUT BUT DAS NOT HOW IT WURKS IN TEH REAL LIFEZ" is one of the weakest possible defenses (or arguments for) anything in a game like Warcraft.

I didn't add a qualifier to my statement. Most Hunters in arena are BM for one reason and one reason only: TBW. Yet...without that snare resistance they bring more to their...team? So what you're saying is...sacrificing snare resistance is...not necessarily a bad thing?
But RP! Look at all the Shamans QQing that they have no snare resistance!
Yes... except that;
1) Most Hunters are not BM. Really, I swear.
2) They're sacrificing a long-cooldown Snare resistance ability for sustained and reliable CC and defensive abilities (trap talents, Det, Scatter Shot) as well as additional offensive abilities (Silencing Shot).
3) Even if none of the above were true, a snare resistance when you're range is "anything over five yards" rather than "anything under five yards" is a whole different ballpark.

I have no Arena experience on my Shaman
Thank you, come again... moron.
BG experience is
not the same as Arena experience in the same way that a normal L70 instance is not the same as BT/Hyjal experience. It's in an entirely different ballpark, so attempting to translate experience from one into experience from the other is... frustrating at best.
You don't know how little you know. You simply have no idea how big the gap is; people who've actually
done both might have a better idea than people who've
done only one what the differences between the two are.
How can you not understand this? It's as basic as you can get!

You don't need a 2200+ rating to figure out that adding CC to Shaman would make them OP. Very much OP. You'd be taking the ability to heal (whether it's useful in most situations or not...if you find it useful in 10% of your Arena matches, it's a noteworthy addition to the class) and adding the ability to dish out sick damage (if you can't, you suck) and the ability to buff a party in diverse ways (and if your best counter is that totems can be destroyed, that's one less attack focused on someone on your team) while wearing the second best class of armor defense wise to the ability to purge, interrupt/lockout casting every 8 seconds and now...CC?
You don't need any experience in Arenas to know that adding X to Y would be SHO TOTOTALLY TIZOVERPOWRES that it would break the game. BRIZZOKEN.
Nope, never. You don't even need any Resilience. You don't even need to have ever played the class, much less at level 70; you just
know. You
know that the people who have trouble succeeding in Arenas must just suck; I mean, it's not like you could ever have a searchable tool to look through all Arena teams above 2000 and not find a single Enhancement Shaman. It must just be coincidence.
You whiny bastards. L2P lawl! Learn 2 warp 2 peoplez becuz if you can't cazch them its becuz u just suck. I men, its not liek ther doing anything; they jus sit dere until you hit them and kill them lol.
So QQ moar. U dun deserv anyfing. Just l2p.

RPZip has a long standing childish resentment towards me. He takes a certain adolescent glee in cutting down anything I've said simply because it's me who said it. He's not someone I would call respectable by any stretch of the imagination, and I don't put people on pedestals for much of anything, certainly the least of which being their accomplishments in an MMO.
Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
I enjoy mocking idiots. Don't worry; you're not alone! I especially enjoy mocking idiots who don't realize just how moronic they are. It makes the whole experience much more enjoyable for me; I'll admit you're an intriguing... well, I won't condescend to call you a 'sparring partner', since you're not even in the same league, but you're definitely one of the more oblivious idiots on these forums.
