I could be wrong, but I believe that 23/38 locks are better off with Paladins. Without treeform, resto druid mana can't sustain an attrition fight. An affliction or demo would suit you better as you aim to burst down one within a couple cyclone-fears.
Well, you have to really decide whether you want to play resto fulltime since the gearing up part will test your resolve. Because arena with anything less is a quick gib.

Awesome, thanks for that. I'll be picking up the chestpiece and hopefully the dagger ASAP.
Last night I tried some 2v2s each with the warrior/rogue/warlock. It wasn't pretty. In general we had the most success when there wasn't a healer, as I could easily keep both of us up long enough for my DPS to kill one. With the warrior even teams with healers were pretty easy (went 6 and 4), as we just put him on the healer while I cycloned/rooted the DPS. I only got to play 7 with the rogue and they weren't so great because we kept getting melee/healer combos in which my 7k health/7k mana is not just enough to win out against Gladiator geared opponents.
The comments in this thread are spot on about the warlock too - afflicition/soul link just doesn't have enough "oomph" to take someone out quickly, and there's no way I'm winning a mana battle with my gear. These were some of the longest and most painful games. I'm going to suggest he goes UA - I was the one getting focused anyway.
I learned a lot though, most importantly that if you ever find yourself taking your season 2 gear for granted, try playing an alt in greens. It will put things into perspective very quickly.
