For the last time, since this has been repeated to death. PVE skills will not be in the PVP portion of the game. Period. Done. >_>

I tried the wolves den (arena) a couple times 4v4 @lvl30 because the 40-50 wouldn't queue during Phase 4. This was with the "PvP actions" not available yet.
Everyone gets increased movement speed or what seemed like faster than normal movement speed. Very easy to interrupt casters. There are columns and fences you can use to LOS people. Circular arena, middle is fenced off on both east and west sides, only way to get into the middle is from the north or south. Behind the fences is the outer ring that goes all the way around with some pillars you can kite people around with.
Normal strategies apply like peeling for healers, snaring people, and CC. Sleep was ridiculous because the CC breakers/PvP actions weren't in the game yet.
PVP's going to be hilarious. They have a LOT of client-to-server interpolation and update frequency issues they're going to have to sort out before PVP works lol.
With the current netcode, you're going to always see the person as they where 0.3 seconds ago. Good luck melee!
