Regarding spec choice: even though i really miss Piercing Howl, i can't imagine ditching Bladestorm in its current form. Combining them (71+) seems a bit too much for arena play. Right now, the only way to survive a well timed Bladestorm is to gtfo. Piercing howl will prevent 2 or more players to do that.
I've had quite a few matches in 2s - low rating though (1700), just came back from a 2 season brake and i am dicking around with friends - where bladestorm would obliterate the other team (both of them) in no time. Especially when sweeping strikes started bouncing around. Popping recklessness made me follow the carnage with a 6k sudden death execute. Couple that with the MS debuff and you know there is no way healers will be able to heal through such dps (mainly because you can just switch targets and kaboom the other player that is at 30% health cause the healer has to choose).
Talents are ofc balanced for lvl80 play, so i we'll have to see how damage scales with health and resilience. But still: catching a team off guard with piercing howl - sweeping - recklessness and then bladestorm would probably mean instant win. Which feels a bit silly, even though you're playing on the winning side.
