Step1

Listen to your teammates. Teamwork is all important in something like Arathi Basin. You're not going to single-handedly take back a node unless its completely unoccupied; just 1 enemy can respawn before you cap the flag. If someone has an idea try it out; see if it works. Rushing blindly from node to node will get you nowhere.

Step2

Hold each node your team occupies as long as you can. The longer you hold a node, the more points you obtain, giving you an easy advantage. If you have to give one up, always move to another. This gives you wriggle-room if your team loses a node or two later on.

Step3

Pick a strategy. At the beginning, talk with your teammates and figure out what you think will work based on the opposing team and your own. With you all following the same strategy, the odds for success become much higher. Before you begin, make sure everyone is on the same page.

Step4

Go with the flow. Don't be afraid to change tactics if your strategy is not working out. Not every strategy works for every instance and sometimes the strategy needs to evolve to fix your weak points. Make sure, however, that you give the strategy a chance first, and that everyone is on the same page when you change.

Step5

Defend your nodes. Whether your strategy calls for just a few players on defense or many more, stay where you're supposed to be. Tempting as it is to join the offense and rack up those honorable kills, you'll lose the bonus honor attainable only when you win.
