I ran across a line in a Q&A for cata that kind of worries me.
Are there any plans for making fury good in pvp?
Fury did get some love in cataclysm because we changed the talent trees around, short heroic leap gives them a little more tools compared to before. [COLOR="rgb(0, 0, 0)"]We also expect players to play a lot more in Rated Battlegrounds and things will be different there, Arenas will still be around but we expect the focus to shift to Rated Battlegrounds during the next year.[/COLOR]
Does this mean that arenas will not be as competitive as rated bgs? Are we seeing a divide in pvp like dungeons ----> raids? Or am I just being paranoid.
I play WoW almost exclusively for its pvp and even though it might not be the best system for pvp ever it's still the sole reason I play. I'm hoping i'm just misinterpreting that line. I'm completely fine with rated battlegrounds being a valid way of getting pvp gear and a good alternative to arena, but I don't want to see it replace arena completely. Does anyone have any info on this? If you do I would love to hear your thoughts.
