39 arenas with stamina gear only and no talents.

old post - http://www.twinkinfo.com/30-39-bracket/27418-level-30-twinking-lower-damage-like-wotlk.html

New Rules:

- No DPS stats, only defensive stats allowed. Casters are allowed spirit (including enchants) because with no intellect from gear, they oom quite fast without any spirit.

- No talents, only the summary e.g. shadowstep for rogues.

- No glyphs

- Certain spells are not allowed:

- Recuperate. Because the heal is based on hp%, it heals far too much compared to the damage.
- Drain Life. Same reason.
- Prot pallys/warriors. The talent vengance grants them AP based on their total hp.
- Fury warriors. The spell bloodthirst restores a hp%, so again, with this gear, this would be too much of an advantage.
- Bear Form. Base damage of faerie fire is really high for some weird reason and feral druids also get the vengance talent in bear form.

Last year I tried to start a new twink bracket at level 30 with these rules, but I gave up on it because no one was willing to try it out on my server. I've decided to have a go at it again at level 39, on Draenor alliance EU, since it already has a large 39 community. Here's my armory: Hicker @ Bronzebeard - Game Guide - World of Warcraft. It says I'm on Bronzebeard, but that's just because I transferred over today.

I'm looking for a few people, who see the potential in this, to help me get started, and help me get a video up of arenas/duels. My goal is to have regular war games going on that are balanced and fun. I'm offering all expenses paid for gear, enchants and capped first aid. It's relatively easy to gear, I managed to gear my druid in a couple of days.

So, if this sounds appealing to you, just whisper me on my 39 druid Kakorak on draenor alliance, or add my real ID - iainm123@aol.com. This is the only hope for twinking in cataclysm.

Just fyi "Prot pallys/warriors. The talent vengance grants them AP based on their total hp" this has for the most part been removed from PvP. There are a few ability exceptions that currently will still grant prot vengeance in PvP, but not enough to cause the ability to stack high or often.

hmm, was it changed in a recent patch? what's different about it? I remember you could get 10% of hp as AP, which ended up as a lot when stacking hp, and I remember seeing a feral druid get vengence just 2 days ago from being attacked.

I may have kind of an unfair advantage in this thing. But, I guess it's for EU anyways so no harm done.

Whilst I applaud your efforts, MoP is so close now that it seems kind of pointless as everything is bound to change yet again. Hopefully it will be for the better, they may end up reducing the burst but the real proof will be some sort of balance.

That they have failed dismally on, the last 1.5 expansions. Having played some on the beta, I am totally unimpressed with everything bar the nice new scenery.

Fingers crossed, but my breath is not held.
