Old dungeon blues cost too much

TB can be pretty sometimes.

Today I was on my shaman trying to get enough honor, to covert to JP, to get my t11 set.  I have robe, pants, and gloves at this point, and VP boots.  I am curious though, why the old dungeon blues cost as much as the epics.

During one WSG battle when I jokingly said I would if we WON when someone said “tits or gtfo” I ended up making real id friends with Octavious from Hellscream. We managed to get into the same AV by queuing in a real id party together at the same time.  I mean, I don’t think the party mattered but it worked.

Later on we had, which had to be without a doubt, the WORST Tol Barad battle I’ve ever been in.  I started out on my shaman and ran to ICG, where I remained solo nearly the entire time while it turned.  Then horde flooded in and took it back.  I switched to my priest, and it just got even worse from there.  We had people staying as ghosts and doing nothing but walking around, we had rogues staying in stealth and merely watching while I took a beat down trying to find someone to heal.  We had people die and stay dead the entire time, then we had seriously about half the raid, just leave.  Horde had probably 5-8 people at every single base, we had maybe 15 people total, with only 5 trying to attack.  We went a good 15 mins at 0/3.

Knowing it was hopeless, and finding no one to heal to help even get to a base, I stayed near the bridge while a hunter and Yomomma tried to kill me.  I ended up catching Yomomma in a fear near the rocks and threw him down.

Where he stayed the remainder of the battle.

After it ended I hopped down there to see him nearly kill a DK, but I grabbed him with another MC and tossed him into the water, barely saving the alliance person.  We both dropped down and he sapped the DK all the way back to the Alliance camp, where he again tried to kill the dk.  But, I was annoying and yanked another MC and walked him to the guards, where he died.

It’s all in good fun I assure you.

Reading Mail

I like how you actually appear to read, well, a map/mail, at the mailbox now.

Last night I ran Rbgs with the guild, and I sort of lost track but I think we lost 3 won 3, and I earned the Corporal and Sergeant title.  Everyone but me and Energizer had 0 rating though, and we were going against teams with anywhere from 200 to 1700 rating. Not that it matters much.

This morning I was asked by Retsy, a ret pally, to do some 2’s.  My requests to do 2’s has gone up quite a bit since I got this staff. I also did a few 2’s with Karma the other day but the first one we lost because I forgot to change specs and was in holy, the second was taking so long we just quit, then we got a fast one on a double dps team. I’m at cap but I did it anyway.

Then today while doing dailies this paladin started spam laughing and pointing at me, then started teabagging my feet, since I wasn’t dead.

Not sure what that was about, I don’t recognize the name.

All the Rogues

Stood in town today and my staff and I must be turning heads. Rayslayz came by, and presumably inspected me, and asked if I wanted to do 2’s with his rogue. I said I couldn’t right now, but I’d rather not go through that unpleasantness again. I know I can fight with a rogue since Karma and I did so well, and I don’t need someone blaming everything on me.

My raid frames were acting up again in TB and it would not allow me to click certain people. Balaah is a rogue I run into a lot, who tries to direct the TB battles sometimes, and he was dying to a DK outside the walls of icg. I ran up to him and tried to bubble and…. he died. Because my frames refused to select him. I apologized to him about that later and in typical rogue fashion he was cool with it and appreciated being watched by healers. Oh I will have all the rogues on his server in my palm, oh I will XD

Tharus

Being a big mouth in TB has its advantages I guess, been talking to Howlurr (rogue) more, and Tharus, a dwarf paladin who has it out for Ladiesman constantly.

Last night ran some bgs with Carlyshay and Meps, won 3 lost 2, was fun. Neither have much pvp gear since they just hit 85, though I got to tease Meps for fighting a paladin for like 5 mins, behind a wall on a ledge outside of the Twin Peaks base. Asked if he was making out with the pally or what. XD

So, servers down, and bored, reading arenajunkies.com. I had been curious how it seemed like other priests were able to get off mana burn much faster than me. Then it occurred to me with herbalism I get that lifebloom haste boost and I’ll macro it with mana burn. I had it on divine hymn I think but I haven’t been asked to go disc in pve in ages.

Karmarouge

Ran 2’s with Karmarouge again, and won 4 lose 2 before he (I assume he) had to go. One loss we just quit because the fight would have gone on for max time, easy. It was a feral druid and a resto shaman. I could not MC the druid of course, nor the shaman since they were in spirit wolf form the majority of the time. I also could not burn the shaman since they ran around as a speedy wolf, breaking LoS constantly, and even if I had them locked in fear and burned, it wasn’t enough. So, we just gave up, that would have been a giant waste of time.

We had another win that took longer than it should have, against a feral druid, again, whose partner we killed, so he just cast HoTs and went into travel form and ran and ran. That pissed us both off. Added at least 5 extra minutes to the fight dealing with that stupid shit. But thus far I find them to be a rather agreeable partner, who seems to accept that there are some 2’s comps we won’t win against. I am ok with that, but not every one is.
