I have a question for the paladins with more arena experience. First let me give you a bit of background information. My main focus with this paladin is pve and raid healing, specced 43/18 at the moment. I do however enjoy pvp and have recently begun to play in the different arena brackets with a few friends. My gear is mostly pve healing gear, with a few random blue pvp pieces. The teams that I'm currently playing in are either Paladin and Mage/Warrior for 2vs2 and Paladin, Warrior and Mage/Warlock/Hunter for 3vs3.
I've started to encounter more and more teams that focus fire me right of the bat. Now when I first started playing around in 2vs2 and 3vs3, this never happend, so the fact that I run around in mostly pve gear was never much of a problem. But I'm finding that once I get focus fired early on, I'm very often done for. In other words, I have to blow my bubble way to early and after my bubble is gone, it's an easy job for the opposing team to counterspell/kick/earthshock and god knows what to keep me from ever landing a heal. I've managed to run around pillars to take advantage of LOS issues, but this is won't always work. Not to mention the problem of being to far away so that my teammates will be killed, while I can't reach them and land a heal in time.
What I'm asking for is simply advice on what to do in these situations as well as what my goals should be when it comes to gear. Should I aim to switch out some +healing and get a lot more stamina/resilience?
