Thank you for your reply guys this has been most helpful.
The main reason behind this post is a comment made today in a bg 'How does a hunter die from a rogue, wtf?'
It upset me a bit considering I'm a quite new to pvp. I think I panic and by the time i react..i'm dead!
I initially joined bg's as a means of improving my raiding skills e.g. dps and movement.
However the more i do them, the more i enjoy them as it gives a different scope to the game.
I am fully pvp geared with an ilvl of 675, including the weapon. I am yet to get the conquest weapon because i haven't accrued the 7000 and something points (currently I have 4500 or something like that). I have been able to get in to a few rbg's but i find them hit and miss, some RL's are really good whilst others offer no plan at the start and just hope for the best and then get mad when the objective has not been met because people are just scattered everywhere.
I will not be discouraged and will keep practicing
