PvP is Screwed Up"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Hm so a lot to catch up on.\u00a0 Deadfrog, during the last RBG said they would invite me, but when I logged in at the right time the next week, they did not, nor did he reply to my question about it.\u00a0 I was a bit ticked.\u00a0 The only Horde rbgs yolo&#8217;s going on in Oqueue either want 515 ilevel, which I don&#8217;t have yet (but I have a Grievous weapon), or just don&#8217;t pick me up as a hunter.\u00a0 I learned to play MM also which I think I like better, less dependence on a pet.<\/p>\n<p>I am sort of regretting the move to Horde, also.\u00a0 As Horde you HAVE TO block IoC and AV, unless you want to 90% of the time queue into those and 90% of the time lose them.\u00a0 That means you have no flexibility to block maps you really hate (Gilneas) or the CTA (bad without a group).\u00a0 And of course let&#8217;s talk about waiting 10-15 mins to get in a bg, and losing, like the SSM I had today where we didn&#8217;t get one cart capped.\u00a0 Frustrating.<\/p>\n<p>Now all that, I can deal with.\u00a0 The thing I&#8217;m having the most problem with, is I switched to Horde because I knew more PEOPLE.\u00a0 But, they are either not logging on (Ladiesman), or haven&#8217;t played in ages (Lemm), don&#8217;t ask to queue up or don&#8217;t respond to invites for groups (the DogsofWar people) etc. I am not having fun playing as single player.<\/p>\n<p>Now that is out of the way, my gosh world pvp.\u00a0 I felt the difference in gear on my druid, but typically not as much.\u00a0 A raid geared dps could give me a hard time, sometimes solo me even, but it usually took some real skill.\u00a0 I am ok with this.<\/p>\n<p>On my hunter, omg.\u00a0 I tried to fight a disc priest with nearly 700k hp (ilevel 567).\u00a0 They hit me for 60k Penance and 70k SW death.\u00a0 My HP pool in my lfr gear is about 450.\u00a0 That&#8217;s not amusing that a healer can cut 20% chunks of my health like that while healing and shielding like it&#8217;s nothing.\u00a0 And yes, I&#8217;ve apologized to hunters many times for soloing them when I was in raid gear on my priest.\u00a0 Generally that was in instanced pvp though and they were just bad.<\/p>\n<p>Then I ran into a Dk with nearly 900k health.\u00a0 I unloaded on him.\u00a0 I barely moved his HP bar, it was really quite absurd.\u00a0 He went about his business in Halaa like I wasn&#8217;t even there.\u00a0 The next patch better fix this.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway on to fun things, the Hardened Shell, which I have on all of my pvpers now, has some fun delay effects.\u00a0 See that DK spec in the background by the hill?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ocyla.catchmehooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/720ocyla.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"
