Battlegrounds 5/13/08

Tonight was another sorry night for the Alliance in AV. I played Wranngar in 8 battles tonight, 7 losses and one win. The win was the only battle we even got close to Drek. In the majority of the battles it was over when everyone went to Galv first. That is pretty much a guaranteed loss. The others we lost by rushing FWRH. That tactic works about 1 in 10 tries and only then if you have a good team which we didn't. That's about all I'm going to say about this because that is all I have to say that is fit to print. I haven't seen the Alliance play this bad in a long, long time, if ever.....

Something weird happened tonight, I could not get out of AV so I ALT + F4 to close the program. When I logged back in a half hour later I was in the same spot in AV but I was in a new battle that hadn't started yet. There was over a minute to go before the battle started and I was in the middle of AV so I took advantage of the situation and claimed SFGY :). I was in the process of claiming IBT when the battle started. The strange part was I didn't have the battleground button on my mini map so I couldn't see anything about kills or where I was ranked in the group. When the battle was over I, once again, couldn't leave so I ALT + F4 to close the program again. I will log back in around a half hour from now and see what happens. I will also put in a ticket and explain what happened so I don't lose my account for suspicion of hacking.

Daily Battleground 5/13/08

The daily battleground today was Eye of the Storm. I did it on Wranngar. We easily won the first battle I was in by a landslide. We capped and held DR, MT and FRR while running the flag. We had a really good group, it was all the Horde could do to hold BET. I really like my new mace for fighting in cat form, I can really notice a difference. We beat them 2000/740. The daily battleground pays 11g99s and 419 honor. Wranngar is less than 100 kills from breaking 35,000 lifetime kills :).

Daily's Wranngar 5/13/08

I did all my Shattered Sun daily's on Wranngar today along with Gaining the Advantage and the daily cooking quest. The daily cooking quest was Soup for the Soul again, 3rd day in a row. I picked Barrel of Fish for my reward and got a new recipe, Recipe: Stormchops. I now have all the recipes between Wranngar and Gomorra but I don't have them all on each yet and I want them both to have all of them. I also sold two Clefthide Leg Armor on the auction house for 100 gold each. I split that with Axeelina as she supplies some of the mats. Altogether I made about 230 gold on Wranngar.

Battlegrounds 5/12/08

I fought in 8 battles in AV today on Wranngar. We had 3 wins and 5 losses. It was the residual holiday weekend carrying over. I don't think the holiday weekend actually ends until server reset on Tuesday. In all of our losses except one we never really held anything past Tower Point. In the one loss we did make it past Tower Point we capped FWGY. Galv was done first in almost all our losses which explains the losses. In the wins we had, and it was 5 losses then 3 wins in that order, must have got into a different group of players, we didn't get Galv first but moved to FWGY as a group instead. We capped towers along the way and had all 4 down in 2 of the wins and 3 down in the other when we went for Drek. I tanked Drek in one of our wins and didn't even see him in our losses. In one of the wins we rushed FWRH and it worked, we had people getting the towers on the way and had all 4 down when it was time to kill Drek. Even with all 4 towers down Drek still has 2 elite Frost Wolves with him. I am not sure what Vann has with him when all the towers are down. In our losses we lost all but two on reinforcements. Altogether not a good day for the Alliance in AV.

Wranngar 5/12/08

I helped out Yonezoe some more today with Wranngar. We finished up a couple quests in Tanaris/Gadgetzan then headed to Desolace but the quests there were lower level so we headed to Searing Gorge but the quests there were too high so it was back to The Hinterlands. We did all the quests she was eligible for there and ended up in Darnassus to turn in. She leveled up to 43 yesterday after I logged off and leveled to 44 today :). After that Yonezoe had to log off so I took Wranngar and did the daily cooking quest, just got some meat and a level 9 knife, and Gaining the Advanatge then I hit the battlegrounds. The daily battleground today was Alterac Valley and it took 6 battles before we won one. I ended up fighting in 8 all together. I got a new mace for Wranngar for DPS with my honor. I got Gladiator's Maul. I lose 300 armor when I use that instead of my staff but I get more stamina, strength and attack power in cat and bear form. I will use the mace when I am fighting and use the staff when I am tanking. I had a lot of honor and marks piling up so I decided to spend some. My 2H Mace skill was only 150/350 so I went to Arathi Highlands then Western Plaguelands to level up my 2H mace skill. I got it up to 302 before I called it quits for the day.

Daily's Gomorra 5/12/08

I did all my Shattered Sun Daily's on Gomorra today plus the daily cooking quest. The daily cooking quest was the same as yesterday, I picked Barrel of Fish for my reward and got another recipe, Recipe: Delicious Chocolate Cake, some fish, plus the 7g59s. All in all I made about 130g on Gomorra today.
