I am a warlock and my 2v2 partner is a disc priest. We ended season 3 at roughly 1750 rating. Since season 4 began we have simply played casually in the 1500's waiting for all the gladiator teams to move up to what should be their respective rating. So, we have been playing games in our raid specs just to obtain some points. However, the time has come to get serious again.
There is an issue me and my partner always had back in season 3, his surviability. Now it doesn't help that his gear is subpar, but it's still decent to the point where, I think, more gear wont make a major difference. The big problems we are having are warriors, rogues, and enhance shamans. Warriors have been getting much easier as I have learned alot on how to properly help him. The old "dot everything" mindset the common warlock has, I've realized, is situational. When fighting a warrior he always makes sure to have his shield up on the warrior's focus target while I have CoW and no dots on the warrior. This is reducing his rage generation a lot. Enhance shamans are a problems due to purges, windfury (w.o the need for a totem), and tremor totem. LOS just isn't enough sometimes. Rogues are just insane. CloS renders my dots and fear obselete, stunlock renders my priest obselete, and the druid feral charging and hot'n or the priest mana burning and dispelling dots doesn't help us much either.
I would love to hear what other priest have to say about this so i can relay the info to him and then get back up to the 1700's when we begin playing seriously again.
Thank you.
