Blizz saw there was a problem, that's why they added a hotfix to double effects of resilience which boosted what it does by 20-30%. btw....this is what the PVP 10% reduction in healing is also related to on the current patch.
prior to last patch and new arena gear, you have to look back on gear added to the game thru patches with new raids/bosses/etc. PVE gear was boosted and added twice since previous arena season gear patch. the stats on the PVE were near double of arena/PVP gear which pretty well overcame and negated resilience on the PVP gear. BTW, it was arena junkies who also PVE figured that PVE gear was the best for arena....because they are junkies/twinks.
this is not the first time this has happened, there were phases of this in BC, but was less QQ'd due to the game not being world of burstcraft back then.
during S-4 there where players using PVE combos of T-6, crafted T-6.5 and resilience gems that were doing killer in arenas, because the overall stats outdid PVP gear negating much of the resilience.
IMO....serious PVE'ers would QQ too if arena junkies in arena/PVP gear where better geared for PVE/raids than they are. especially if PVP rolled out a higher GS. BTW this actually happen in BC during S2-gear. players if full S2 were better geared for Karazahn than most epic geared badge of justice players at the time. i remember on my server in LFG's on trade, S2 geared where welcome and wanted on Kara runs, but that ended on next patch.

BoA gear is basically unfair gear in PVP only more experienced and main-bound players can get.
Awwww QQ ya nub
If you play a hunter, don't talk to me! k thx
I will ticket a GM next time i log on.
I say we propose somthing where anyone with the hat or pole for the matter be camped until asked, either faction. I will fully support the fagget getting his ass kicked. Im sure we all hate the fails that crutch on gear as much as the people that camped noobs to give twinks a bad name. Thanks.

Can't wait to see a pally with the fishing pole. 40 SR isn't bad either!!
If they don't fix the poles, I'm gonna just rock enchanted BOAs and enchanted whites in the XP BGs with delete/repeat toons.
That is, until the pole drops for my druid.

oh god... all who say WOW fights should be won by skills and not gears, i think you gotta recheck your reality about RPGs.
that said... i do agree that 40 stam 40 spirit is quite not made for 19... truly not supposed to be !
i have no problem wiht lucky fishing hat not because everyone can have it, but because the difference is not so much, we're talking what, 1-2 hit more. but with 400 life more and 40 regen more. we're not speaking of 1-2 hit. we're speaking 5-10 more to win and that makes the game a hell of a lot more different.
Rayu, I know you said you already got this hat on one of your 19s and deleted it to avoid "exploiting," long before I got it. I just want to say that no one will blame you if you take out a ticket and ask a GM to restore it on the grounds you thought it was an exploit, and now you realize it was not an exploit and everyone is going for it.
