Battlegrounds 10/21/08

I have tried to do 2 battlegrounds on Wranngar tonight, AB which is the daily and EoS. In both of them I was able to get in then nothing happens. You just sit there and wait. I had to exit out of both of them which resulted in me getting the deserter debuff. I am not happy about that at all as I never leave a battleground before it has ended. This is just another epic failure on Blizzards part. I will do my Shattered Sun dailys and see if I can do my daily battleground after that. I have a ticket in for all the good that will do....

Update: I finally was able to do my daily battleground about 3 hours later. As I said it was Arathi Basin. We won the second one I was in but it was close, too close. We had 3 nodes and all we had to do was defend them but the Alliance can't do that, they have to leave 1, or none, at a node and go in ones or twos and try to get another. Needless to say nodes changed hands quite a few times. I am looking into changing servers on Wranngar to get into a better battlegroup, I think any other one is better than Bloodlust.

Battlegrounds 10/20/08

I only did a few AV's on Wranngar tonight. We had one win and 2 losses. The Alliance is still doing pretty poorly in AV even though they made it a lot easier to win with the latest patch. The major reason behind that is people defending SHGY. I don't know what it is about that graveyard but you get the same people battle after battle defending and holding it even though they see it causes us a loss almost every time. The only time we win when they are holding SHGY is on reinforcements and that is a 45 minute to hour battle, clearly not worth the little bit of honor you get winning on reinforcements. Hopefully some day those people will smarten up. Another problem is people trying to gear up for the expansion coming out in November. I am seeing more and more people in AV asking questions that plainly say they have no idea what they are doing in there.
