So you get stuck in your DPS gear... bad heals are better than no heals at all.

		<description><![CDATA[You can switch specs if you get in the BG before the gates go up. After the gates go up you are SOL. 

Arena you can&#039;t change specs, and you can&#039;t change gear once the gates go up. In BG&#039;s you can change gear at anytime.

You can still get unlucky and take the queue after the game has started but it is better then missing the queue entirely.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hey Ledin, how touching... I&#039;m not too worried about the circle of bodies... but waking next to a Warlock would cause Gnomeaggedon to cast Squidly from this place... but no one could get that drunk... could they?

Resilience gap... iLevel gap.. there is a gap and it&#039;s getting bigger every day.  This is the reason that Gnomeaggedon is shelved.  I may play reasonably well, but one quick GearScore and I would be excluded from even regular instances.

I&#039;m building up honor, slowly but surely.  I nearly have enough marks to grab myself another PvP mount... maybe I will hang onto them, there is bound to be some scrub PvP gear I can pick up.

Mmmm decisions, decision... Thrall or Jaina.  My guess is you wont make many friends whichever you choose...

I dare say if those two got together the war would end... and there would be a spate of interbreeding...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hey Jong,

No Gnomeaggedon isn&#039;t buried under the rubble of Squidly&#039;s totems... although I admit I have become addicted to the heady mix of PvP and PvE honor kills, experience, gold and trophies...

I think I might take Gnomeaggedon for a spin really soon, assuming Zupa lets me once he get&#039;s hold of his pocket BG healer.

I smell a respec in the air... something a little more PvP oriented..

I might just drop that Arcane spec that I never use and go for something a little more effective against the Horde.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#039;m concerned for you Squidly.

I&#039;m worried that when you hit 80 you&#039;ll see the resilience gap and become dispirited. 

But I&#039;m also worried that your blood lust might become insatiable. What happens when the battlegrounds aren&#039;t enough? Will you try to track down and smoosh every last hordlet? Will you let yourself become a monster?

Be careful, Squidly. In two weeks I don&#039;t want you to wake up on Ogrim&#039;s Hammer surrounded by bodies in the company of some horrible warlock.

(Consequently our heroes got in a big slap fight over whether to use the the big cannon on Jaina &#039;Easy for the Green&#039; Proudmoore or her lub-a-dub Thrall.)]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hey Larisa, sounds like you are having a hard time of it.

Those queues can take forever sometimes and I am also hating the 2 queue restriction.

I must be better off because I am using talented, which is allowing me to access the necessary swap spec buttons.

You can change spec in a BG, but only before the battle begins.  Once it starts, you are who you are.

So once again, the pits if you have waited for an hour for AV, only to get pulled in for the last few minutes (worst I had was the screen didn&#039;t even completely load before I was deposited back in Dalaran... back to the queue)]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Actually I&#039;ve been trying to join BGs as resto on my lvl 67 druid, and it&#039;s driving me nuts. It just doesn&#039;t work for me.

1. The queues are insane. Something happened with those changes and I find myself waiting for hours!!! Not only for AV, which I&#039;m used to, but for any BG. And the restrictions to only queue for two bg:s makes it even more annoying.

2. While I&#039;m waiting to get a spot I want to keep questing. And I do that as feral ofc, since it&#039;s easier. When I finally get a bg spot I want to switch to resto. BUT. The big square thing for accepting the bg is covering the whole screen so I can&#039;t! I can&#039;t switch spec and I can&#039;t switch gear. And once I&#039;ve accepted and joined the BG you can&#039;t switch spec either!

Why on Earth do I have to quest as a resto if I&#039;m in the queue for a BG? It makes the whole idea about dual-specing pointless.

Anyway: there you have one explanation why you don&#039;t see that many healers in the BGs.
