And what is odd is that I'm 5-3 in WSG and 0-5 in Arathi Basin 0-1 in Alterac Valley.
Gnolack is not worth much solo. I do not do raging death like a damage spec warrior can in many 1v1 match-ups. I'm an annoyance factor and I can live a little longer than damage spec warriors. My PvP gear is set-up to help with what damage I can do (I can still throw executes out) but I still carry a lot of def +dodge and +parry and as much stamina as I can get. Yeah I know that warriors will get more overpowers in on me with a dodge around 15% but I generally keep them from being crits.
I can hamstring people chasing the flag and then intercept another one to slow them up and hopefull get a conc blow on yet a 3rd. I can pick up the flag and turtle along in defensive stance with a shield on and if I get heals maybe move it somewhere. I can throw fears around. I can run into the middle of 5 people running to our base and if I can't shout them away I can turtle and annoy them for 4 or 5 seconds while help gets closer. I can go after whoever has our flag and do an intercept/hamstring/conc blow and while I may die that keeps them from getting it back and if they drop it I get ignored whill clicking it to return it. I can escape artist out of frost nova to keep moving too and 1.9 will make escape artist much more useful. I can silence, not just interrupt, casters. I can keep a caster shut up for a good 8 to 10 seconds or less time but making them burn their trinket or get blink into a cooldown.
I'm OK at flag defense. I'm OK roaming (no epic mount though I'm horrible at making money and I still needs tons of runecloth so I can get a ram that doesn't drive me nuts with noise when I ride), I'm OK on assaults because I can harass the other players.
I need more twitch skills and probably need to change my skill bar arrangement yet again. I'll never be good at PvP but I don't completey suck. In many cases Taranna or Balador might be better to take along on a PuG than Gnolack (people see warrior assume MS or Fury spec and assume they'll be out there doing 200+ DPS not my crappy 120 or so if I'm lucky) I can protect a priest better but I need more help to kill anything. I don't have any of the mods to help me target crap and I won't get any so if you expect me to pick up healers or casters right away because of a mod it won't happen. I'll have to do it via a self made macro or by hand.
So yeah I'll probably jump in a few BG's now and then.
