BlackMoor Coven 4/27/08

I finally broke down and got a guild vault for the guild. I was saving for my 300 riding lessons for Wranngar and Gomorra but I got 300 riding on Wranngar so I figured it was time to invest the 100 gold to get the first tab. A few people had asked me about it and I kept saying it was on my list but somehow I never got to it lol.

Alterac Valley 4/27/08

I fought in 6 AV's today on Wranngar. We were doing pretty good, we had 5 wins and 1 loss. Some of the battles we close but we pulled it off by killing Drek. We didn't win any on reinforcements today, got them all by downing Drek. We used a couple different tactics today, one was rush FWGY while capping towers and get Galv after towers cap. Another one that was working was rush IBGY, cap towers, get Galv and then move on to FWGY, FWRH, Towers and Drek. We also did one rush FWRH that actually worked but it seems to be mostly luck when that one works. Usually TP & IBT never get capped so we are looking at tanking Drek with 2 towers up. But this time it worked great, some stopped off and got the towers on the way, we rushed FWRH, got the FW Towers and moved on to Drek. The game we lost was a classic Alliance turtle at Dun Baldar. You can't win them all but I was very impressed with how the Alliance was playing today, both in AV & EoS.

Daily Battleground 4/27/08

The daily battleground today was Eye of the Storm. We won the first one I was in and I had such a good time I went back for more. We had some really good groups for some of the battles and some pretty bad ones for others. I ended up doing 9 battles on Wranngar, 4 wins and 5 losses. In the battles we won we had at least a 3 cap going and were running the flag. I was trading off capturing the flag with another Druid, when he capped I would be at the base waiting for the flag to respawn, then I would grab it, run it to a node and cap it and he would be waiting for respawn. I capped 4, he capped 5. I got 11g99s and 419 honor for this quest.

Daily's Gomorra 4/27/08

I did the same daily's today on Gomorra that I did yesterday, everything in Shattered Sun. I might log onto Wranngar later and do the ones I do on him, not sure. I made about 92g95s on Gomorra's daily's.

Battlegrounds 4/26/08

I did a bunch of battles in AV and WSG today. I did them on Wranngar. I had to do 6 WSG before we finally got a win and I could get my daily done. I was doing AV in between and after WSG. I fought in 17 battles, 5 wins and 12 losses. Definitely not a good day for the Alliance. We won 2 of our battles on reinforcements and the rest we won by killing Drek. Getting Galv first was tried too many times and it just doesn't work but people keep doing it anyway. It is AV weekend this weekend so all the weekend warriors are out in the battlegrounds for the extra honor. Some of the battles were pretty good, a lot of good fighting. I tanked Drek in one of our wins but didn't have good heals. I died the first time when he was around 60%, rezz'd at FWRH, came back in and he was at 43% so I started tanking him again and we got him to under 10% before he killed me again. They finished him off before I rezz'd. I am surprised how many people are calling for rushing Drek. They want all 40 to ride to Drek and zerg him. That is how it was done pre-2.3. Now with the towers and reinforcements it's just not possible. A couple strats that seem to be working are rush IBGY and rush FWGY. As usual when rushing FWGY the Alliance never leave enough people to defend it so we end up losing it. We lose it almost every time but people never learn. FWGY needs to be defended because the Horde will always come back for it.

Daily's Gomorra 4/26/08

I got on Gomorra and did the daily's in Shattered Sun tonight. I did all the quests there and made 92g95s. That brings my total for today to 260g42s. Not my best day but not too bad.

Daily Battleground 4/26/08

I did the daily battleground on Wranngar today. It was WSG. Have I ever mentioned I hate WSG? It took 6 battles to get a win, or I should say a good group. In the 5 battles we lost the Horde really beat us in most of them, and a couple were close. Almost all of them were long battles. We finally ended up winning in a shutout, 3/0. I ran the flag a few times in a few of the battles but there was no flag support and every little effort being put into the first 5 battles I was in. Anyway it's over and hopefully it will be awhile before it comes up again. I got 11g99s and 419 honor from this quest.
