How about adding pvp as a spec?

Base resilience is 40% btw, not 30%.  A smooth, gear-independent change to reduce burst would be buffing it to 45-50%.  However, fast wow gold then healing gets stronger.  It's a tricky balancing act.

How about adding pvp as a spec?  Just like in dual spec'ing but one for pvp and have a choice pvp gear when lvling. It seems to me that if you are going to add pvp as part of the game, why not scale the gear one gets to pvp? or have the gear change to pvp stats when switching over to your pvp spec. Bad idea? 

 It's not a bad idea but there have been dozens of great suggestions that Blizzard has ignored. Star Wars TOR is one of the few games that has gotten it right, and their mechanics heavily mirror Warcraft. I love PvP but it's been an imperfect system since it was introduced, and it all boils down to the fact that Warcraft is a numbers game with levels and changing gear stats.

Y'know, I think Blizzard has Alts all wrong.

Endgame progress houldn't be individual, Where to sell World of Warcraft accounts  since it's time sensitive. The endgame only lasts for one expansion, then you have lag as the poor schmucks all level up their alts again and are late getting into the endgame, struggle to gear up, never effectively do it, etc, etc.

Likewise, the levelling process, the one thing that doesn't change with each expansion, but only gets prolonged.... is the thing that Blizzard pushes characters through crazily fast. Rested gives you double EXP, an extra 50% from a full heirloom set. what, 10% from your guild? Let's throw in the darkmoon carousel for another 10, and that one use item from pandaria taht gives you 300% for an hour.

that's 570% exp gain! And I'm sure there's lots of way to up that! (Say you're a monk.)

Leveling is far less repetitive than endgame grinding. buy cheap wow accounts I say they should make reputation, and justice/valor/conquest/honor points account wide. It would help with the tedium ALOT. You'd still have a weekly cap on your points, but you'd be able to reach it faster with Alts (probably). Plus if you're using valor on your main, and have an excess of justice....spend it with your alt!
