| Having a 10man premade group, working and communicating together in Rated Battlegrounds is a real blast |
Add-ons
First of all, you will require to download an add-on called BattlegroundTargets. This add-on will allow you to view and target any 10 of your opponent on the other side. Usually, there will be one or two target caller in your team that will be calling out who should you focus and kill.
Looking for Group Website
Not enough pvpers in your realm? You can try out Battlemasters.org which is a site that let you find or form RBG groups with people from accross realms. With the Battle Tag and Real ID, this will make forming group much easier. Please ensure that you have enough gear before joining any RBG group and usually the requirements are at least full PVP Dreadful Gear.
Eye of the Storm
In the Eye of the Storm, you will be usually assigned to guard either Fel Reaver Ruins (FR) or Blood Elf Tower (BET) at the start. With the new Glyph of Camouflage that allows stealth, your job will be much easier. Any incomings should be alerted to your team mates beforehand to ensure that they can back you up. With double Deterrence using Readiness, you will be to able last long enough before your team mates arrive.
Temple of Kotmogu
Hunters will usually be assigned to guard the top area of the map while range DPS that can teleport back up such as warlock Demonic Portal or druid using Symbiosis will be assigned in the pit. Your role is basically to grab the orb as fast as possible whenever your team mates holding the orb on your side dies. Now, it's your turn to get into the pit and Line of Sight behind on of the walls inside the pit. Remember to always target anyone holding the orb and crowd control the ones without it. If every DPS in your team is coordinated very well, the target will die almost instantly as they have an increased damage debuff.
Silvershard Mine
On this map, you will be joining the rest of your team and zerg a mine cart which has been assigned. Whichever mine cart that has the most opponent team, that's your primary target to go for. You can form 3 Ops team usually 2 dps and 1 healer to hold another mine cart with lesser number of opponent. Be sure to stand in the circle while doing damage and make use of Feign Death and Deterrence to avoid getting globaled. Other than that, just follow the assignment made by the leader and blow all your cooldowns. Be sure to use Freezing Trap and Silencing Shot to crowd control their healers.
Arathi Basin
Similar to Eye of the Storm, you will most probably be assigned to guard farm or stables at the beginning. Just call out any incomings and utilize your pet to interrupt the flag capper if you're getting crowd control. Other than that try to use Explosive Traps to knock people off the left from Lumber Mills.
Warsong Gulch
You will be following your group doing tons of damage and crowd control the opponent. Focus Freezing Trap and Focus Silencing Shot are vital as you need to be consistently targeting the main target your target caller is calling.
Twin Peaks
Slightly a bigger map than WSG, your role is going to be pretty much similar. Only you can utilize your Explosive Trap even more here for example knocking people off the ledge in the flag room, outside the entrance as well as the cliff near the graveyard.
The Battle of Gilneas
Depending on your group, you can either be guarding Mines if you're horde side, or assisting your team mates to the frontline to Water Works. Please ensure that your team is using the back path instead of the river cause Mages and Death Knight from the opposing team will use Ring of Frost and Hungering Cold to freeze everyone in place before you can reach the flag. Follow your leader instructions all the time, if the call to a node is being made, you have to ignore whatever you're doing even your kill target is at 20% or less.
