That's some hot auto-attacking action.

You must be really proud of yourself, ya know, since youre so good at running down players that aren't fighting back and just trying to zone into ubrs.

Now that I shelled out the 4g for +8 speed to boots my new favorite thing to do is kite ret paladins to death by running in circles spamming Arcane Explosion. I was insanely surprised/disappointed how often this works, even 2 manned Holystrike and his tryhard rocket helm 6 man lowbie group at the satyr area in Felwood.

Ret's just a terrible spec, even when you're playing decent which he's not terrible, obviously has good response time on dispels etc, it's so disadvantaged against intelligent players and unfortunately compared to retail the average nost player is a slight bit better.
Sorta making builds like ret, balance, enhance, or even SoF for rogues just "for fun" builds. Unless you plan on just ganking your average chinese farmer with 500+ ms 1v1 proves to be quite the hassle. Unfortunately unlike shamans or rogues, druids and paladins really had no good dps builds or good itemization within their actual armor class, forcing druids that were playing balance to wear alot of cloth, etc. Also, you can bind your auras, that's about all I got. However itemization for ret does get a fair amount better with introduction of aq 20, so it makes it slightly more bearable but still awful vs good players.
Long review short, you fucked up by picking the wrong icon when you started, if you picked one with a staff everyones dicks would be sopping wet for you.

I feel for ret paladins. My first toon when wow launched was a paladin and I went ret. It was fucking awful and I hated paladins because the spec was so awful.

As far as PvP goes Reck >>> Ret imho - but Firestar showed some good skills in his video so props to him for that.
