I know there’s a few of you that enjoy Moonkin PvP.  I’ve recently been scrambling to put a set together (finally above 800 resilience!) and have been dabbling in 2s and battlegrounds a bit, but probably won’t be in 3s or 5s for another week or two.

We’ve done a lot of hashing of the numbers for Starfall on the PvE side.  What do you think about the PvP side?  I think it’s a welcome change, and I know it melts faces in battlegrounds and 1v1 duels, but I’ve yet to experience it in 3s or 5s.  Is our survivability decent enough that we can really dish out the damage?  I struggle in 2s against certain combinations just because I can’t always do enough burst damage to break down a healer with 1.2k+ resilience.  I’m not too worried about that because Blizzard specifically does not balance arenas around 2v2s.

How about Nature’s Grasp?  I did do some testing last night and did find that it does have diminishing returns on the charges, and that it’s shared with the actual entangling roots spell.  I think the best application of this would be when you have multiple melee attacking you, as all three should take a full duration roots.

Sound off with your thoughts!

What arena compositions do you feel work well with moonkin? I’m thinking either a frost mage for 2s, as it would be high burst, or perhaps a ret or holy paladin, and a paladin/mage for 3s. What do you guys use?

I’ve decided I’m going to make my off-spec PvP, and begin to dabble a bit in moonkin PvP.  I’ve got a few pieces of the first level 80 arena seasons lying around, as well as some off-set pieces from when I dabbled as resto.  I’m trying to decide though, if possibly maintaining my 2pc T9 and/or 2pc T8 would be worth it at the lower ranks, as they both grant quite a bit of additional burst damage.  Your thoughts?
