Pallys - Is the Arena Libram worth it?

[jza]

Hi. For 5v5, is the arena libram worth 1100points or should I save the points for the mace/shield/season 3. My team hovers between the 1900-2000 range. Pally,priest,war,lock,mage. I have 4 pieces of season 2 gear, I'm using the eng healing helm, shard of the virtu , and heroic badge shield, and the +79 healing to flash of light libram.

1. Is the arena libram worth it or should I get the new healing shield or glad mace?

2. Do you guys ever use blessing of light in arenas?

3. What about BoS? (40/21/0)

4. Any tips to avoid CS?

Thanks

I swap it between the kara BoL libram, usually have it on for 2v2 and 3v3 when light isnt needed cause of BoS and BoF chain casting.

Wow pls dont say you asked, how the hell have you been getting around MS and Wound Poison for longer lasting games? How have you been keeping your clothies up against a zerg?

eff that imo

haha fake heals, heal when your team has the dps pressure on the cs'ers, if you cant afford to take a cs bubble, pop teh c/d to avoid deaths duh! a dead teammate or having your self die is not worth saving a cooldown for, my teammates know when i have my bubble up and the opposing priest has pressure on, they will be getting heals, whereas if i get cs'd even a sword and board might not help teh warrior survive

If your on a 2k 5's team I'd say get the libram. With the points your getting from 5's you should be able to get all the season 2 gear, a piece or 2 of ret/dmg gear and still have points saved for season 3. The extra 5 resil is kinda meh but its all about min/maxing right?

1) the libram is really nice. However, i would reccomend getting your main gear first (set, weap, etc)

2) never...i find freedom is so much more effective to kite the damage. Light increases the healing, yes...but it wont keep them from being snared

3) i dont think you would use it to be honest (freedom, sacrifice, or kings are much better buffs)

4)Line of sight, pump fakes, and calling out a cc on a mage to your team. Pump fakes get tough when you get over 2200 or so because mages have addons to instantly silence you (unfair...yes but you gotta deal with it).

This is not how it is. Blessing of Sacrifice for absorbing some damage on yourself that doesn't have ms/wound is a much more effective way than using blessing of light, and it also does a much better job of keeping your clothies up during a zerg.

3. What about BoS? (40/21/0)
eff that imo

If BoSanc worked like BoSac but removed the damage totally, it would be great, and 40/21/0 would be _the_ specc. The problem is that against dots it only lowers the damage over the entire duration of the dot. It's still good when someone is attacked by a rogue, though 41/20/0 is probably still better.
