Been doing TB a lot, and sometimes we have 5 horde. But, I still dreadfully miss my favorite rogue, Ladiesman, there. There has not been a single engaging rogue there since. No fun.

Scaling is fun
Yes, I killed a level 90 paladin as an 85 priest. Holla!
OMG LFR IS SERIOUS
So tried the LFR new raids, we got it down with a little trouble. I find it amusing that this junk JUST CAME OUT and people were already yelling fail tanks, you idiots, etc etc. IT JUST CAME OUT. We’re not all Paragon or something who heroics raids on the PTR, or whatever! Geez.
Lots of fire!
Hm. So I’ve been testing out shadow as an offspec since there are many complaints about healing priests, disc in particular. I won’t drop disc, but I want and need options for questing. And MY GOSH questing is so much easier as shadow! That might sound like a no brainer, but it was reasonably easy to do until I hit 88.
Anyway the other day I was in TB with 4 other alliance, 2 of which were with me at ICG. Holystab shows up and draws out a druid and I follow to help out. He runs in ICG and starts msging me with
“Are you stupid
dumb ass stop attacking me
thats it your dead”
Well, hi? It’s um, pvp, and I kill the opposite faction.
So I replied that was how I show love and what did he expect, a make out session?
“well you know me and my pvp friends we like to kill some alli wanna be the first to die?”
At that point I said sure bring it, I mean boring TB is boring. I want some action. Told him he was cute when he cries and come back and I’ll brush his hair (joke about blood elf hair).
“ROFL you kids don’t even know how to pvp you just run in numbers and get at me when you cant win 1v1”
Again, hi? You came solo to an unmatched fight.
“its sad how you think your good hiding in numbers, sorry hunny i’d rape you in 2 shots without your back up”
I told him I never said I was any good. I just picked up shadow the other day. Then I said I would be 4 shots at least.
“nope I have a 1 shot macro but i’d be a waste on you”
I asked, what if I beg, really hard?
“just a waste of my time to even touch you lul”
Told him he knows he wants to come try.
“you wish”
Then I said I appreciated him making the battle less boring. This was after he showed up at WV with a holy priest and we rolled them both.
“ROFL SO BAD LUL god i’m laughing so hard at how ad you alli are, ha ha an 86 healer beat your dps, LOL”
There was more, but yeah. Done talking to that guy, that was beyond rude.
HEALS SUCK OMG
Sometimes I wonder why you don’t see many pvp healers, but I guess if I used half a brain and thought about it, it would be pretty clear. There is the obvious like we get focused first, usually, and rarely does anyone “protect” or peel off you. In random battlegrounds this doesn’t bother me TOO terribly because I take it as a challenge to try to survive anyway. In persistent battlegrounds like WG/TB, it’s annoying because everyone should pay attention to their healers.
The additional insult is from random players who complain about not getting heals without paying attention to WHY they didn’t get heals. Was I the only healer? I can’t heal everyone across the entire map. Was I getting my ass pounded into the ground? Yeah I can’t really heal anyone else when I’m trying to not die. Was our dps not killing a fing thing? Yeah, these questions need to be answered.
Was in a random BG and in Twin Peaks. The other team had a prot warrior flag carrier with 4 healers. We had someone call out to focus the prot warrior and I said something about the feasibility of taking down a warrior with 4 heals.
This of course opened a whole can of worms discussing what an idiot I was, how I must never RBG, I’d never be accepted to his RBG team, blah blah terrible heals whatever. I was their only heals. The best comment however was:
“Nice mana heals, only 100k lawl”.
/facepalm
Then in Tol Barad the other day, a DK by the name of Deathbybean (think it’s that Meanbean guy) was yelling at everyone for not getting vehicles. The problem was, no one, NO ONE had even one HK so we couldn’t. It was that bad. Alliance had like 3 mages at every base with a healer. It was pathetic.
For no particular reason he started insulting me, saying I probably was a bad pvp healer, probably had no pvp gear, etc etc. I said I was fully pvp geared and well experienced in pvp, but I didn’t see how me healing was going to help dps who can’t kill crap for anything. Yes, it will keep you from dying but it’s not going to help you kill the enemy. AMIRIGHT?
It’s like when that horrible hunter named Kiya tried to kill my horde priest in WG, I kick her ever loving ass. But she gets a healer on her, she still can’t kill me but now she’s wasting all of our time getting heals.
We went back and forth arguing about this up until we lost the battle (predictable, the only HK I got was when I killed a mage myself) and I must have angered the guy because he took it to PMs. This is the fun I got, and I’m always up for an argument.
Deathbybean: haha man you must give it to your buddy good for him to stick up for you like that
(Stout told the guy off earlier)
Him: how far did you get your junk down his throat LOL
Me: Maybe I do, so what? Jealous?
Him: not at all ha ha… its funny when people talk crap then ignore you haha, its always about getting the last word in i guess right? thats always mature
(because insulting your healers is mature)
Then I told him if I wanted to shit talk I’d be more than happy to do it directly, and said I healed my ass off at Slags but we killed no one. Then I got
Him: well then I apologize cause I want at slags
me: no worries
him: thats all you had to say you didnt have to be so defensive XD
Uh huh. See the aforementioned “if there is a healer in raid and I’m not getting heals they must be bad” comment. WE MIGHT NOT EVEN BE NEAR YOU.
I have a very, very small “I won’t heal you” list
Did a TB on my mage today, and had the bonus of adding a new person to my “I will not heal” list.
There were only about 5 of us and someone asked who would come with them to WV. I said I would and I was followed by a holy paladin named Lightbringr. We hit WV and there was a hunter and a resto shaman, so I focus’d on the resto shaman, but even attempting to CS, fire blast stun, deep freeze, spell steal everything, I was not able to end the shamans life solo. This is not even remotely surprising, I don’t know of any class that can 1v1 a healer and WV being “LoS city” doesn’t help either.
Anyway another warrior showed up, Clankamon I believe, and we still could not kill this shaman. the paladin started berating us, asked if we “bought” our RBG rating (my mage has 0 RBG rating) and PM’d me to “delete yer toon” and blocked me. I switched to Ocyla and had a stupid conversation about how I should have poly’d the shaman and I just gave up and logged.
