I'm not really back. I'll poke around a bit in wotf and I have a 40 dok in warhammer, but I'm headed to Vet school in January. I doubt I'll have a lot of free time for gaming for the next four years.. Good to see you two still hanging around...play nice..

Lol, playing nice isn't in a warrior's vocab... we taunt things right? (your mom!). haha well glad to see you peaking back and forth Kaz, any success either of us have ever had, no matter how small, was thanks to you and your knowledge.

And Vet school??!?! zomg, I think if I wasn't a computer geek, I'd be a Vet, my g/f too. We love animals =]

Updating

_________________________________________

Interface
Everyone's is different. This is what my UI looks like:



This is running the test function of the addons so you can see where everything would be in an arena situation.

I've uploaded my UI to Wowinterface for anyone who is interested:

BW UI : WoWInterface Downloads : Generic Compilations

Mods I use(Click to open their download sites):

Afflicted2- Afflicted2 : WoWInterface Downloads : PvP/Arena/BattleGrounds
Bartender4- Bartender4 : WoWInterface Downloads : Action Bar Mods
OmniCC- OmniCC : WoWInterface Downloads : Casting Bars and Cooldowns
Pitbull- PitBull - Addons - Curse
Proximo- Proximo : WoWInterface Downloads : Ace: Combat
Quartz- Quartz - Modular Casting Bar : WoWInterface Downloads : Casting Bars and Cooldowns
PvP Trinket Tracker- Mods | D r a m a

Basic PvP UI Tutorial (video) - Arena Junkies Forums - This guide explains how to create a PvP UI through video tutorials.

When you download addons, make sure they are up to date(with the current patch), because if they aren't you will run into too many errors.

To quote Pharaunmizz:

Never underestimate the power of having more space and less clutter. PvP is pretty dynamic, so being able to see clearly can seriously help you out. Don't bother using Addons if they aren't doing anything for you. Periodically evaluate each of your addons and see if they're actually worth their screen space.

Hmm.. proximo still the one to use? Unless it was updated recently, it was pretty buggy. I'm going to give galdius a try, and see how it goes.

Engineering is the best profession.

You get hand-mounted rocket launchers. Everything else pales in comparison.

164 (5%) hit rating is what you should be aiming for. This is the hit cap for PvP with a two-hander.

For a socket it depends. I'm stacking some hit gems right now because it's hard to reach the hit cap without some hit gems or PvE gear.

If you're good on hit I would suggest stacking crit due to the large amount of arms talents that buff/depend on crits.

The spell reflect macro does not work. I think it has to do with titans grip and being able to equip a 2 handed wep and a shield with that talent. I used the same macro before wrath and it would sometimes only equip the shield and not the 1 hander not really a problem because i would spam it and bam the 1 hander would equip anyway. Seems the equiping of a shield no longer unequips a 2 hander now so you have to equip the 1 hander then shield then cast spell reflect. Your macro is trying to equip the shield then the 1 hander right after and it sends a message "i need two hands for my weapon"
Just switch the last two lines and its fixed

I tried this comp at the beginning of the season (wasn't very geared) and we also got owned.

Your gear looks like a mix of raid gear and the PvP gear. I would suggest getting the fourth piece for that set to reduce your intercept CD. Put some sort of enchant on your shoulders/gloves. Unless you PvE mostly I would suggest switching to weapon chain. Pick up the new PvP Trinket for a ton more resil. Try out the spec listed in the guide instead of your current one.

Get your priest to try out this spec: Talent Calculator - World of Warcraft

Other than that I can't help because I haven't tried the comp since then. I'm guessing after seeing your healers health that you're going to have to help him a lot with peels/disarms. I think Kazey might be playing with a priest, maybe he can help you a bit more on strats.

I went through this a little when I started using a gamepad. Most people seem to report it taking anywhere from 48 hours to a week to get the hang of their new configuration. I would try to stick with it though and if you continue to have problems re-evaluate.

Just turning with your mouse is the correct way.

Where do I say something about reevaluating Keybinds?

Here is my keybinds:
