Queue to Queue to Queue

Jan17

I get queues are needed but man.  I run to Ashran to queue.  That will take a while so I queue for a bg.  Those have been around 6 minutes lately.  Double-queued up, now what? Can’t do much of anything else because either can pop at any time.  They are supposed to fix Ashran at least, by making it be more like a bg and open more instances.  I’m sad about that though because I thought it would be a persistent zone like Wintergrasp, only open all the time, and only for your server.  I want to play with people that come all the time like the old days.

I met, SO many people that way.  Fratricide, Ladiesman, Acks, Whitescourge, Zukk, Perfide, Rexe, Sealgaer, Darkest, and, yeah. A lot.

Back to Being Bad

Jan16

I haven’t done any random battlegrounds in a while, but it’s bad.  I won’t say Alliance sucks, because I haven’t done it on horde, but man.  I went 1/5 yesterday, and the 1 was an AV we barely won.  We lost an IoC.  No joke.

Then went on to go 0/3 the next day too.  Sigh.

Getting Petted

Dec6

Apparently dungeons have been pretty bad for people lately.  I phased into one the other day, easy peasy with the easiest tank I’ve healed so far.  He said he wiped 7 times prior to that and was so glad he got a good group finally.  I specifically told him he was good, and apparently he was told he was ‘squishy’ previously.  I barely had to heal him so I don’t know what crack that other healer was on.

 

Queued for one today with the lure of a satchel.  Last boss, again, pretty easy.  The tank comments “it only took the entire instance to get a good healer” and thanked me for being good, and said “the last 3 were aids”.  Ouch.

I did not get my satchenl, however. Boo.

For a Complete Failure

Dec4

I got my Gladiators Sanctum to level 3, and tried out the Highmaul Coliseum thing.   You get invited by this guy:

Who seems to be, as my kids use to say “SUCH the jerk!”.   I mean look at those poor Draenei.

You can’t stealth in there, or at least in stealth everyone can see you.  I got jumped on right away and died first.

On the plus side, we won Ashran twice, and between that and my sanctum, I have 1400/1700 CP in like a day.

I like this guys dialog too.  Sounds like me.

 

South Shore vs Tarren Mill

Nov22

Did one last night, I LIKE IT!

It’s like Wpvp but with guaranteed people!  Also loving the boxes you get when winning, or losing a battleground.  I believe it’s based off some kind of participation, so when I get top heals and we still lose, sometimes I still get a box! I got 2-3 pieces of gear from losses actually.  Good times!  Also got a win in the new bg and got my title, Tarren Mill Terror.

 

Ashran is still not fun, though.

I had high hopes to be in there all day too.
