Problim in the Alliance Camp

Apr28

Some horde trained Problim all the way to the alliance camp the other day, which, wow, I didn’t know he would path that far.

So few things, honor has been boosted with the new patch quite a bit

Acks on his hunter named his pet after me

I had an epic TIE game in Twin Peaks where I solo killed a mage and a hunter myself as well.

Last night we tried Heroic Halfus but only gave it 2 tries, then buzzed all the way through to Cho’gall, and I finally got my healing offhand from the Ascendant Council, and got my T11 shoulders, for my 4pc bonus, from Cho’gall.

The shoulders are still ugly.   I was told again my healing is too low, again with comments prior to Cho’gall that we would never be able to heal it unless we had such and such disc healer, etc.  After the raid I was asked to talk to that healer, who doesn’t play holy, so I don’t see how that would help.  I did redo my spec slightly, removing talents that don’t matter any more like the one that lowers the reuse on chakra, and changed two glyphs to have more charges on lightwell, and the 60% boost to the first ping of prayer of mending.

I sent Zukk, that orc unholy DK a message on my horde, with my usual “damn you’re a beast huh” message on it.  They replied that it’s nice to get a good message and not the usual “u suck” stuff.

At my last TB I also ran into Soundwave, a horde paladin I use to see in WG a lot, and also Shayo, who I haven’t seen since WG I think either.

Acks

Apr20

Today I randomly made a new friend, while hanging out in TB at Slag.  Acks (warrior), who was turned into a BE, started dancing with me out of boredom, I returned the favor, they commented that my gear was nice, etc.

Bunch of horde ran in, we held off for a while, started talking back and forth about pvp and such, apparently they have played since classic, had a paladin, has raided, likes to pvp and arena, etc.  They dropped out of their level 3 guild, Exalted with Repairbots, and I invited them since I got a good vibe.  We talked a good part of the rest of the day, including running a few BGs, TB dailies, and WG together.

Ran a few arena with Peejay today also, and came short by about 50 points for my ring, since it was around 5 and he had to go, and so did I.  The teams we had were quite hard as well.  I’m seeing a lot of fire mages in arena lately too.  Mages don’t cause too much trouble for me but the stun dragons breath does, is quite annoying.  Plus polymorph landing over and over with no chance to get out of it that many times is meh.  But, we did pretty good.

Ragefire Chasm

Apr8

Ladiesman helped me get into Ragefire Chasm today to get the Robes of Devotion, which are so pretty! I’ve been uploading gear shots like crazy to wowhead too. Unfortunately I didn’t notice until after I uploaded it, that my chars eyes were closed XD I’ll have to take another.

Earlier in the week I went back to his team for arena as well, and we lost a few getting back into the swing of it, then we got it together and got my points in. Watching rogues play, a good one, is mesmerizing to me XD

Ukko

Mar27

Ran a WG today and was disappointed to see I was the only alliance in the group but the horde already had 4/24 vehicles and had 4 people out and about.  How does that happen?  We had 4 alliance get in and then just leave?  I ended up running into a paladin named Rinni, who is a member of the team I am on Leonz with.  We fought against a hunter, a warlock, and a paladin for quite a long while, and when I mentioned the unfairness of the situation, Janusz joined.

Things went better at that point and we ‘wasted’ the battle fighting 3v3 against Ukko, a shaman, a really bad rogue, and the warlock, until it was just down to the shaman and rogue against Jan and I.  We beat them down after that point.  We kept fighting for at least 20 minutes afterward just for fun and it turns out that Rinni knows Ukko. Small world. I mention that I’ve known Ukko since WG was the place to be and that I thought he was quite good.  Apparently he has a 2100 rating in 2’s.  We do some wargames, which I guess are like skirmishes, but get rolled every single time by Ukko and a paladin, who I learned are brothers.

This is why we lose

Ran BH today, and I am SO GLAD I did not buy my Vicious mooncloth gloves yesterday, because they dropped today! I am now at 5/5 Vicious pieces, and have only around 3 blues left to replace. Woot. Oh, and this is often why we lose TB so fast:

402ocyla

To point it out, I’m at Slag, with 1-2 other people.  There is NO ONE at Warden’s, and what looks like 2 people at icg.  And everyone else is in the middle, doing nothing.

Soulprince was bugging me again today to run a random with him which I said I could not, but agreed to queue up to make the run faster, though soon as we got Deadmines (AGAIN!!), the tank dropped, then when another came in I dropped, which booted him too. I forgot they fixed the queue cheating.  He also asked for money again to get gear and I said no, again.

Ran all 25 dailies today too.  First time I’ve done that.

403ocyla

And those Onslaught guys, I still hate them. Soooo much.

Ran Deadmines, (again!!) and got enough valor to buy my gloves and I have a 2 pc T11 bonus now.  The robe is even more poorly itemized than the gloves, so I chose to go with those first.
