    Well I don't see why you would have too do that. It's simple team setup. Templar or NB support, stealth scorc or NB, and a heavy hitter scorc or DK. That combo would work depending on what abilities they had on their bar.

    Meh if they are going to implement arenas at least do it right. Already see fail with it being 3vs3.

    Arenas aren't needed anyway... If they do have to implement them, I'd allow them if were GvG only.

    Mate considering how poorly balanced this game is right now, adding arenas is zen playing with fire.

    I do hope they have the good sense to balance it more first.

    I want 24 vs 24 vs 24 or 12 vs 12 vs 12 battlegrounds, before they include arenas.

    WoW was ruined, once they tried gonig the E sports route and balanced all classes for Arenas.

    Wouldn't 3 DK's be an unbeatable Arena team? hell, they'd get nerfed to [Snip] just by palying in arena's alone.

    SwampRaider is 100% right with the arenas. But i wild prefer no battlegrounds at all. This is artificial PvP. Not War...

    Welcome to forums this pretty much how it works on ... any MMORPG forum.

    So yeah , people voice their opinion , the devs usually check on anything that gets big enough atleast.

    You probably have not played many mmos that tried to mix world and instanced pvp. World/cyrodil pvp will be dead, except for people farming/swapping emperor.

    They better get the game balanced out before they add this. Right now they would have to call it DKs v Sorcs. Cause any other combo of team would struggle. It takes 5+ depending on level and build to take down a proper DK before everyones resources run dry. As a Templar I avoid them without having plenty of back up.

    And you will quit because "you know"?

    I have played more MMOs than most people. Always Pvp, and I love open World pvp. Theres has always been people who likes small or 1v1 fights, large, structured pvp, you name it. I am not very hungry for 3v3. I might try, but I believe it will be good for the game and draw more players. That will also make it better for you.

    Ugh, hopefully they provide regular updates to Cyrodil to keep people going. The urge to sit semi afk in town queued for minigames and rewards is strong for a lot of people.

    @Zubba all is possible. Experience says that everyone will be sitting inside a safe city queuing up for Arena non-stop and Cyrodil will be deserted. I like small scale fights WAY more then large, but I like to do it in a chaotic environment of world pvp. Instanced queued pvp and open world just don't mix well

    Wow was ruined when they added arenas, not battlegrounds. It's a balancing nightmare when you don't develop the system from the ground up, along side pve.

    Yep it will mess up the game. World pvp will be dead and all classes will be "balanced". And if they mess it up like wow, they will add pvp gear grind and large differences between pvp and pve gear. Indeed unsub time if this happens.
