My 3's comp has changed again and due to my inexperience in arena I'm compelled to ask another question or two.

My comp is now Disc/Ele/Ret. We can put out some amazing burst, and recently we've decided to just bum-rush the healer. No idea if that's a good strategy or not, but it seems to have about a 75% success rate.
Our biggest problem comes when we fight (good) lock/disc/* or any melee heavy teams that train our shammy. I was wondering if speccing 2/2 Vindication would help as I think it reduces over 1k ap and would help slow their burst attempt, since we don't have a hamstring-esk move.
Against lock/disc/* teams (asterisk is for w/e) I've tried using SoJ on the warlock and we've tried to burn it down while I focus repentance on the priest/fearbomb/hex. So far no go. Is there anything worth specing for that would help against these comps, or can I just ask for general advice here? Would specing differently be too situational?
We seem to do fine if the other team focuses on me or my disc priest first, but if they hit our ele shaman - it's usually game over. HoP only does so much, and even with pain suppression it only takes the slightest bit of coordinated cc to down him.
Lastly, with my comp, could you recommend any changes to my spec? I was specced for imp HoJ and was informed last night by a full relentless pally buddy of mine that it wasn't worth the points, so I respecced 7/13/51.
Here's my armory profile Scorpidlight Armory
Due to some recent losses, I'm wondering if it's me messing things up for our team, or if it's just my gear (yeah I know ironsoul sucks, and honestly I feel it's one of the biggest problems with my gear). If possible, it'd be great if I could ask for some general advice on the whole of my character. (wrong libram is equipped atm, I normally swap to seal specific.) My main point for all this questioning is I want to make sure I'm doing all I can for my team.

Thank you very much for your time!

Did some testing on the PTR with a premade character - it does seem to be that my weapon is the biggest drawback to my gear. Well, that and about 1k ap. However, through my testing, I also noted it wasn't really our strategy that was lacking, it seems to be more my gear level. I would still appreciate any advice that can be given on the subject, as I would like to learn all I can. Also, SoCor seems to be especially useful on healers (ones that don't cleanse themselves) combined with [Libram of Valiance]. After 5 stacks, I have manged to burst down a disc priest (with well timed HoJ of course).

Looks like I need to run 25m toc for the [Dual-Blade Butcher].
