A Day Of Work |
Thursday, July 17, 2008 |
Yesterday I was off from work. Initially I had plans but they fell through. So I did some important stuff like laundry, mowing grass and most importantly, Battlegrounds. LOL
I decided that the free time was a gift so I would go ahead and collect all the odd BG Medals that Pallanen will need for the new epic armor that is available in BGs. I've been avoiding it for a while. I dreaded the first part. I needed 21 medals from Warsong Gulch. *shudder I really don't like that place. But I was in for a nice surprise.
When I started my first BG (after starting my first laundry load :P) it slowly dawned on me that I wasn't playing with the usual evening crowd. The group I was in was well coordinated and kept up the talk. We easily won that first WSG battle. Things were looking up. :)
The pattern went the same way for a while. I actually won 4 out of my first 5 BGs in Warsong yesterday. That has never happened before. Plus the length of time wasn't too bad. One game went 25 minutes but the others were reasonably short. The end result was that Pallanen got all 21 WSG medals by mid-morning. I was kind of stunned because I had planned on working WSG most of my free time yesterday.
I'm not sure why but the daytime Alliance groups are so much better than the evening ones.
So I went ahead and did lawn work and more house stuff. You know, the usual things that interfere with WoW. :P Then I went and got an estimate for new tires since they are going to be needed soon. Then I got myself a Lottery ticket because work really interferes with WoW and I need to win the Lottery so all my girls finally get to 70. Then I (finally) came back to the game early afternoon. hee hee
So now I needed 17 medals from Arathi Basin. I wasn't too worried about those since I do like playing AB. I think it's a fun game. The one thing I don't like is how the Alliance groups seem to complain and quit so easily in AB. More so than anywhere else. But I was feeling positive after my morning experience.
The AB games started out the same way as WSG. Pallanen was in several winners right away. Love those daytime groups! She won 3 out of 5 to start with. Then it was later in the afternoon and suddenly the groups changed. The next 6 medals came individually amid the griping and complaining and quitters of the 'Alliance Cry-Babies Club'. It was amazing the difference between the early groups and the later ones.
Just to give my fair reader(s) an idea.... at one point in a BG we were behind by a grand total of 100 points. The game was only around the half way point. We had 2 nodes and so did the Horde. Then the Horde got the 3rd and thats when people started crying and calling out to let the horde 5 cap. A few of us were telling them to attack and not quit. That the game was easily withing reach of winning. But the boo-hoo's just got worse. One person kept saying the Horde group were too much for us and we couldn't win anyway. But we never went below holding 2 nodes. They all just wimped out. Sad.
At any rate, Pallanen got all her medals out of the way in one day. It was a nice gift. Now all I had to do was grind in Alterac Valley for Honor Points and I'd have the new armor asap. So after dinner last night I started running AV for a while just to get it done. Those evening AV groups are hit and miss. I don't mind them much. The game itself is OK. It's always the same and you can tell if you will win pretty early.
One thing that bugged me last night was when I saw a Warrior wearing the worst looking shoulders I had ever seen. I was laughing about it until I had a thought.... then I inspected him. They were the same ones I was working so hard to get! I left AV and went to Champion's Hall to look at the Merciless Gladiator Armor set for the first time. I 'tried it on' Pallanen and shuddered. It is so butt ugly I just couldn't believe it. The chest isn't so bad but those shoulders and the helm, Yikes!
So now I'm sad. I will get the armor set soon. But wearing that stuff in public is a bummer. I mentioned it on Guild chat and others don't seem to think it looks so bad. I disagree.
So that was my big day off. I worked the BGs and soon I'll have even better gear for my Warrior girl. She may look ridiculous in it, but it would not be a good idea to say that to her. Shes generally a sweetheart but don't piss her off. She may just take out her fashion frustrations on you. ;) |

About Me |
Name: Jen
Home: Pennsylvania, United States
About Me: I started playing WoW after my best friend bugged me to play. I soon learned that I really liked it. Now 2 years later I still play and have 20 characters. LOL I am no gaming expert. I am no WoW expert. A lot of the terms and "how to do's" elude me still. But I love to play. All you will find here are the adventures of Pallanen and her sisters. I love them all and they really kick butt. So stay tuned and maybe we can learn stuff from each other that we never knew. xoxo
