    Fair enough, both sides are at a disadvantage. But that's not what this is about. This is not PC gaming in the 90s. Adding in an arena UI with class markers would be a huge Quality of Life boost for PvP. Until you have plate a normal sized race and played against a team of 4 lalafell wearing the same colored armor, you can't understand.

    No... If you want addons and stuff to help carry you go download gladius and play wow. I dont think there needs to be any UI changes.. Focus shouldnt even be in the game as well.

    Not knowing what you're up against and formulating/executing strategies live (during battle) based on your enemy composition adds more quality to PvP rather than using GUI to do everything for you.

    Again, element of surprise is KEY for any real fight, its just more exciting when you don't know what you're up against, and when the battle starts you're like OHS*** and change your battle plan mid fight.

    Except Lalafells have a huge advantage here in that it is nearly impossible to tell what class they are. Every other race it is fairly simple upon a glance to discern their class, with Lalafells this is not so. This advantage is a pretty big one and also unfair.

    Your opinion. Also, element of surprise is not "key" for a fight, it's just what you like. This is 4v4 PvP. This thread was made for those asking for an arena unit frame.

    I don't think this is necessary. The less the person has to do themselves the easier its going to be to have a single party formation that beats all. The element of surprise is awesome. I mean.... technically you can all rush in naked and get behind the wall before you equip your gear with your gear set macro. Or equip fake mage looking gear as a tank and run in and have them target you and switch gear to plate armor before anyone attacks. I'v done both of these and its really fun to see peoples reactions. When I play scholar i have had it follow the other casters out so that people think they're the healer. PVP should be dynamic. I don't think we need Arena Frames to have the game do our work for us.
