The Molten WoW Arena is a place set for battle between players from different teams composing of different character class or with the same class instead.
In addition, there are three Arena Brackets available to be able to do it namely: (2v2, 3v3, and 5v5). In short, the literal definition of a scenario is much of a World of Warcraft (WoW) Player VS Player (PVP) Arena Environment System which involves fighting in order to rank in such Arena Ladder or gain such Arena Points to be able to purchase PVP Gears.

How the Arena System Works
The arena has deathmatch-style PvP matches against even numbers of teams with the same or with different class (2v2, 3v3, and 5v5). There are two modes, team ranked battle which awards special arena points that can be used to purchase various rewards such as PvP Gears and practice battles which award nothing but allows you to practice and enjoy risk free PvP.
There is no objective in arena matches outside of surviving and eliminating the other team. The simple yet majestic beauty of combat wins the day inside arena. There is nothing more here than sword vs. sword, magic vs. magic, and any combination of tactical offense and defense to create a swirling vortex of insanity and bloodlust against the opposing side.
The arena works by these following steps:
1. You open up the Conquest tab in the PvP menu
2. Select Arena
3. Click Join Battle
If you meet all the conditions necessary you'll be queued up and ready to kick the opposing team. You’ll come to a holding area once a match becomes available and you zone in. All buffs are removed (debuffs are left on), pets are dismissed, and you are given a buff that removes casting cost of all abilities (things like Mana and Soul Shards). During this time you can prepare for battle by buffing your team.
Once you’re in zone, abilities that have more than a 15 minute cool down and any restricted consumables other then Bandages and Water cannot be used. This is to make fights no rely on an hour long cool down spells and make matches fast and fairer.
Once the preparation time is finished, you will be able to battle it out against the other team. The winner is decided when one side no longer has any players alive. When a player dies they can release into a ghost like spectator mode.
After the battle, if it was a wargame you’re taken back to where you signed in (after seeing the stats screen). If you were doing a Rated Match then rating is awarded at this time.
That’s about it! Not much to it is there? Well, with simplicity comes complexity. The actual fighting itself is the most difficult part of the rules since, well, you have to defeat other teams!
War-game
In War-game mode you can challenge another group of players to an 'arena duel' to fight it out for practice in 2v2, 3v3, or 5v5 or in a battleground. At lower levels it’s an excellent way to practice PvP skills or just waste time. There is nothing special in this mode, no prizes or awards.
Rated Match
In a rated match you will first need to be in an official Arena Team. To form an Arena Team you’ll need to have 2, 3, or 5 people available to join your team. You open the PvP menu and click on the Arena Teams tab then you select the banners for either 2v2 3v3 or 5v5. When you do this you'll be prompted to enter a team name and design a banner. When you're finished clicks create and your team will be finished. To invite players to your team just click the banner, click 'Add Member', then type in the name of the person you're trying to invite. If they accept then they will be a member of your arena team.
You can join multiple teams and form multiple teams. You will receive Arena Points for the highest rated team you have regardless of the bracket, but you can only be on one team in each bracket.
Team Rating determines your position and approximately every 3 months is an end of a season. If your team is in the top 35% you’ll get a nifty title. If it’s in the top 0.5% you’ll be potentially eligible for additional rewards such as titles and exclusive mounts.
Arena Points
Arena Points are used to obtain special rewards from the Arena. Similar to Honor Points, they are very useful for obtaining PvP-tuned gear without having to go through the massive trouble of PvE. They also have a somewhat simple way of handing out points.
Penalties:
If you want points you'll need to do games. When you do arenas each week in any bracket-you will earn 20% of your total possible points for the week each time you win a game. This means you are going to need to get 5 wins in order to max out.
Keep in mind that if you want to reap the maximum rewards for your arena team then your 'personal rating' will have to be within 100 of the team rating. Your personal rating is shown along with the PR of each team member in a list when you click on the banner for your team. If you aren't within 100 points of the team then you will be awarded with points based on your personal rating rather than the team's.
