Mage PVPers?

[Tarnblade]

I pvp regularly via BG's as arcane.

Im looking at getting back into arena but must admit Im not a big fan of the frost spec and trying to slowly kill somone with fairly crapy crits that most healers can heal through without breaking a sweat.

Not gonna lie, I can't do frost. It is too situational, even though with the addition of fingers of frost, you are still waiting to get off the big FB + Ice lance spam for your burst. And maybe throw in a water elemental for dps. I like playing arcane. It is more of a controllable burst. AB, PoM AB, ABar, and if missile barrage procs smack em with it. Can do a hefty bit and might be able to take down a healer with the burst from it. But then again I have always suggested to everyone just try em out and check and see what works for you.

I also like that the mobility on arcane in pvp considering that your main damaging spell is instant. But like I said, play what feels best. No reason to keep with something or some spec just cause someone told you that it was best.
