Wow you really didn't read his posts at all.

This was the post by Ghostcrawler:

But when all is said and done, there still needs to be a place for damage dealers. Killing a healer, even in the absence of crowd control, silences or whatever, still needs to be a viable tactic at the end of the day.

I'm not sure how I'm supposed to read it as "You should be able to bring 2 DPS classes into arena, don't put effort into draining, CCing, silencing... And still be capable of killing a healer."

Which may have been fine if the broken DPS classes didn't have CCs, silences, and uh, Mortal Strike. Or all three of those combined, if they are a rogue.

I fail to see what else he could possibly mean by that statement.

I sometimes watch my brother play his warlock in arena. He's a completely capable player, despite having no PvP experience in BC. His partner, who was a 2000/2200 Disc priest in S3/4... Says that if they played in BC, they'd have made Gladiator no problem.

I get to see him die to a rogue/mage during the duration of a counterspell on his priest partner (And a stunlock on him). He's at 600 resilience.
