It was one of the most bugged arenas in game, with all that pets doing insane damage with maxed Beast Mastery, those warriors getting -2 dmg reduction from armor and some other minor glitches...
still it was a GREAT idea and was FUN alot to play
snowball arena was genius (attn: anet)

I was going a little dead in pvp and so was my guild so now we are a pve guild(which is the codename for a sucky guild). But when I tried snowball figths, I realised how much I missed the adrenaline pumping in the body. I am really glad that they made snowball fights cause now I have started pvp'ing again. Ain't that a fariey tale for you

I liked it, but I do think warrior 'Lets get'em' >> most of the other options
Until I realized the tweak by class I was wondering how this shout was happening and our team was being dominated.
Loading up my warrior I never looked back...
Some other classes had some interesting choices but as this was a random arena I think that one >> the other choices, you usually won more by delivering things yourself
Still tho a lot of fun, also re-jazzed me to pvp.
But you WANT to help pvp?
4 slots do not cut it at all, and have a lot more (+4 or even +6) set for expansion. I can't pvp effectively now - 3 slots for unlocks, and yet one more for pve because I got my wife to play. Now leveraging my unlocks and using different primaries etc is locked away.
I'd love to see 4 more slots and 2 pvp only slots (which for me would be 8 pve and 2 pvp) come expansion time. Allows for all primary classes, saving a pvp slot for a build you like (even making a name) and then one for constant re-tweak. 4 in the core game quite frankly has been abysmal. I coughed up $100, got my wife and a bunch of IRL friends into the game, but then I have to dance around trying to play with others.
Wife just made her second presear character and I can't play with that one till post, and even there obviously my only remaining lower level character has done a bit more than her other one.
Well didn't mean to rant, obviously love the game.
But the 'back to PvP' thread struck a chord.
I DID enjoy the snowball fight and back to some PvP. I USED to play GvG.
However the slot limit had me move on from a GvG guild, it just didnt make sense to reconfigure my PvE characters everytime, not be able to access 100% of the combinations and unlocks, etc.
I saw some mention of inventory but I'm REALLY watching character slots to drive home the 2 expansion purchases I need to make. Need +4, ideally +6 to hit that one out of the park.
