Being a new 90 stinks

May18

I’m trying hard to level up my monk, but being a fresh 90 in half greens, and blues, is a real pain.  I think I mentioned this before but I was told on Thunderhorn it’s Horde dominated but it’s really not.  It’s about as dead, if not more so, than Whisperwind, and Horde is outgeared by Ally quite often in Tol Barad.  I did pull a win in earlier today but I felt like when I was ally in random bgs, where I had to run like 6 vehicles to the towers, tell people where to go, hurry hurry, etc.  It took us breaking all three towers before we got it.  That’s not “dominating” to me.

 

Not really interested in Wildstar

I got kind of upset about the conquest gear stuff in WoW, but I don’t see any reason to spend money on Wildstar now.  Teanna keeps trying to convince me to play but everything he says I can reply with ‘WoW already does that’.

Rainbows and Ponies

May15

Sometimes Horde wins, and I don’t even know why.

I had a sweet Twin Peaks today on my 88 MW monk.   A mage is telling everyone to crush the enemy healers and “make them regret queuing”. I’m amused. I follow him and clash in mid a bit, die, rez, run around healing, when I notice, we don’t have the ally flag.

But, we have 3-4 people in the Ally base. I run to it and, no one is getting the flag. They kill 2 ally in their base and, they all stand there.

No one gets the flag.

They all run out.

No one gets the flag.

I’m like F IT I’ll do it geezes. As I’m running the flag back, unprotected, a mage is screaming at me to “stay with the team”. I’m like hi, I’m not even rolling, you can mount, try to keep up.  I’m not even rolling to let people keep up with me, and they don’t.   The name calling starts. There’s like 6 mins left at that point.

Only back at our base I end up dying on the cap spot I just Transferred to 2 seconds before we returned our flag. (Damn shadow stepping rogues) By then ally is on to me and killing me every time I get the flag after that. I say I’m done doing it. More insulting ensues.

Hunter gets the flag, I throw CD’s on him to get him through the ally crowd and he keeps running. A druid and mage are intent on wrecking my face as he chugs along and leaves me behind. It’s cool. I die, he gets the cap. We win.

Hunter says “thanks for saving me” and I say “love you hunter”. Rainbows and ponies, we won.

Bad win, but a win anyway.

 

Oh and TURTLE POWER! Thanks for making me think of that awful live action Ninja Turtles preview.  Eeesh.

Thunderhorn Guild

May13

I’m not sure how long I am going to last in DogsofWar, that’s the guild Deadfrog and Etheros and such are in.  First I got into an argument with a priest about how bad disc priests are in pvp right now.  They just are. I can’t even play mine and I have 2.  Druid is better.  Anyway, they argued with me left and right about it, said disc are the best healers (right now they are known as being the worst) and said they would help me with rotation.  A disc priest was my main for years, I don’t need help, the spec does.

Anyway, then got into such a heated argument with some unholy dk named Chewgrizzy that I ignored him.  He bitched endlessly about trying to do 2’s around 1400 mmr that every healer, like 10 of them, were utter crap.  I found that hard to believe.  I suggested he just do double dps comps and he laughed at me and said no one wins with double dps.  I freaked out a bit and called him a douchebag elitist moron.  I’m sorry, if you rag on healers that bad, saying healing is super easy, you probably suck as a dps.  Don’t get me wrong, there are bad healers, but not to that extent.

Played a bit of Wildstar, but crashed when browsing my character screen, when the screen went black and alarms kept going off, and saw weird graphics things like these green boxes popping out of the ground.

I can just TELL

May12

Today we invited a hunter named Awesomehuntr.  And I hate to sound like an ass (not really) but with a name like that, you can pretty much tell they are going to be pretty dumb.

So anyway I asked in guild if anyone wants to do bgs, he whispers me saying he’s almost out of his.  Alright, so I pick him up, get Barn, and Barn gets some other people.  We win like, 4 in a row, I think, before people start dropping.  As per my thing I check his gear.  Green trinket, 6 pieces of pve gear, 7 missing enchants, 4 missing gems, Grievous bow.

We talk about how his other guild was doing arena with him but stopped.  I asked if they lost  a lot and he said sorta.  What really killed me though was, I said he need to work on getting his Prideful bow this late in the season and he said nah.  He wants to get the other gear first.  I said no no, TRUST ME, you want to get the bow asap.  It got to the point where I said he wasn’t making sense not going for the weapon first.  He told me it does “make sence” and he thinks the gear first is better.  I even linked my bow and he wasn’t having it.  Some people are just dumb.  He then admitted he doesn’t do arena because no one wants to (no kidding) and never wins bgs.  Gee, wonder why.

I ran into Moterhead in Thrallmar tonight though, and killed him.  I had to look at my posts from a bit ago when I was killing him in Halaa.
