This guide is written from a Horde perspective but should be useful to
members of the Alliance as well. There is also some information that's
obviously more useful to mages than anyone else, but I will try to add more
general info as time goes on.
So, I know lots of you are interested in fighting in Thrall's army, but
are afraid to get into the hot and heavy because you're intimidated by the
prospect. This is a short and simple guide to PvP to help you get started, and
take some of the mysticism out of it.
One thing I'd like to emphasize is the importance of an offensive
strategy. The battlegrounds are supposed to be fun and exciting, but Warsong
Gulch and Alterac Valley can go on for an indefinite amount of time if both
sides are evenly matched. I implore new players not to be afraid to take risks,
and not to be afraid to lose as long as you're trying something new or having
fun. Sometimes you lose, even when you're playing your hardest. But hanging
onto the battle by your fingernails when there's no hope of a comeback for two
hours is a waste of both teams' time. Always have an offense, even in the
hardest times. Take that last stab at the enemy instead of hiding in your shell.
Respect your opponents. Winning isn't everything. Strength and Honor.
