Crushing Defeats in Tol Barad

Feb24

Yesterday we had some crushing defeats at TB, but one win so I got the pvp dailies done. Also ran a few bgs but the only win was a sweep in EotS, which shocked all involved. 4 bases and 1600 points, couldn’t believe it.

At night I ran with the second group again and we got down the golem bosses, but wiped repeatedly on Maloriak, and spent a good deal of time just standing around figuring out who needed to do what. The tank went offline in the middle of a very good attempt, and never came back. We brought in Dpunisher, who I see in TB a lot, for one attempt, but after that several of us had to go. It would be helpful for new people demanding to be in raids to experience a full night of wipe attempts, on multiple nights, to understand EXACTLY why you can’t just throw a group together and succeed.

Ran arena last night and won more than lost, and hit conquest cap.  Ran a few winning bgs too.

So, the rogue and I are on good enough terms to not kill each other outside of battles, but in, we still try to thrash to the death.

I feel like a traitor some how

Feb21

PVP’d a bunch last night, and lost a Strand, EotS, Twin Peaks, and won a WSG, Twin Peaks, and IoC.  I also ran TB at least twice and we won both times, and one of the times I met up a few times with Ladiesman, on his alliance rogue, Alexmx.  We had one fun fight with the two of us against about 6 horde, which I didn’t expect to win but sometimes I get into fights just to see how long I can survive.  If I can go until I’m OOM I’m happy.

Who can resist a Ladiesman?

Feb19

Today the big thing was running TB several times, where I ran into Ladiesman and got sapped repeatedly at ICG, since for some reason ALL alliance ran off and left me there alone. There’s much trading of /kiss and such again too. I take it back to our little guard camp with a druid at one point, and try to kill him but he escapes like usual, and the druid does not even acknowledge that I saved him from death during one of the fights. In a battle later on I group up with Maice and try to kill him, after being repeatedly sapped and attacked RIGHT IN FRONT OF OUR GUARDS, who did NOTHING, and he escapes. Rogues, oooh!

I did stun him mid-air on his bike though, which I wasn’t close enough to screenie, or fast enough, but it was pretty hilarious seeing someone stunned 3 feet off the ground.

I really don’t understand why a Horde can stand within 2 yards of a Baradin guard, attack an Alliance, and they just stand there, though.

Anyway tonight was raids and we did everything in BWD except the last one, then moved on to BoT up to and finished on the council. I picked up Brackish Gloves and Crown of Burning Waters, which earned me the Cataclysmically Epic achievement. For some reason, a person I don’t even know in guild sent me a message saying I’m sick and need serious help and that ‘you sir’ have a serious addiction. I reply back but they don’t say anything. It was just weird? I don’t know that person, at all. We also earned the Parasite Evening achievement during Magmaw.

Also I update my hair, like I did for my mage when she hit T10, on my priest in honor of that gear achievement.

I think all rogues have choppers

Today I we won TB and I did my dailies.  While I was occupied with some crocs in the swamp, a undead rogue, whose name I cannot recall, attacks and kills me.  I lose both because I was injured by the croc, and had some CDs down from fighting it.  But hey I was flagged that’s what I get.

Later I also get into a fight, flagged while questing again, with Rayslayz, the blood elf shadow priest I was making kissy faces at while trying to kill a few days ago.  He has superior arena gear, and kills me.  I check his armory afterwards and notice the gear, and his 1800 arena rating. Nice.  I figure if he plays anything like me he’ll be hanging around still so I run back where he’s tangling with another alliance shadow priest, and help kill him, twice.  Yes, it was unfair but don’t run around flagged then.  Jumping people not ready isn’t exactly fair either but I’m ok with that.

I herbed so much that I overflowed my giant bag of herbs, even after making 10 flasks, my bag is still nearly full but I’m out of volatile life.  I may start selling the extras since herbs gathered far outpaces the volatiles used in flasks now.

I did a few totally fail battlegrounds, then got into TB.  I play hide and seek with a BE paladin named Aldturmiss around a column, and since he seems so intent on killing me I blow my usual kisses, then later he returns them before dying to lots of Alliance.  We do not take TB that time though.  I thanked Khrow, a rogue, for helping me survive an attack on the road by a shaman who didn’t seem to want to leave me alone, and made a point to heal Rayzo hanging out with me at Slag. Rayzo also has a chopper, I swear all rogues do.
