Shadow PvPFollow

I just started going into battlegrounds and have found that ,no surorise, I get killed a lot. The class that I have a lot of trouble with is locks. I often can get away from the plate classes, unless I am 1 shot, but that doesn't work on locks. Any hints, or just get more used to the fun of dying?

Thanks

Except you'll still get 2-shot by warlocks. Because they are warlocks. It's not you, it's them.

You haven't mentioned gear, if you are in blues/pve gear, yeah you get 2 shot. Once you start getting some decent gear, then you actually start mashing things up.

My priest in s7 started out with the blue starter PvP set, I was getting 2 shot by any class imaginable. But after I got the full PvP set, I could stand up against pretty much any class if played correctly.

As you mention that you just started battlegrounds, I am going to go on a hunch and say you have pretty much zero reilience. Just get used to getting 2 shot until you get better gear...

Yeah, I have about 1200 resil, and warlocks now take THREE shots to kill me.

It's worth getting lots of resilience just to **** off the rogues, though. I just stand there and giggle through their little stun/kidney shot/whatever opening thingie. I don't even pop pain suppression anymore. Then I'll dot them up and /pat them while throwing myself a shield/renew and watching them die.

Sometimes I will throw in some unnecessary jumps, because that's what the real PVPers do, right?

I do somewhat well with my Shadow Priest in PVP (well as well as any other class). With warlock I keep Fear ward up when available and you have 3 ways to interrupt his/her casting. You can also dispell some of the dots they cast on you don't forget about that.

Seriously though I think everybody hates a class that can chain cast fear from a distance. At least with a priest you gotta be right on top of them and have an annoying CD.
