Blood Guard

While I was running through Scarlet Monastery the other day (making money for my 38 Warrior so he can get mount in 2 levels =D), something happened. In Armory, just killing the Myrmidons when i get attacked by a level skull creature called Blood Guard, and it looked EXACTLY like Varimathras. I didn’t notice it until it hit me for a quarter of my health. Obviously I died, because it grabbed 3 other myrmidons (by the way this is my 60 I was playing o.O). I get back to the instance and i return to where I was killed by the Blood Guard. Now that they had returned to their original spots, it was time to exact some sweet revenge on the Blood Guard. So I Charged it and prepared for the fight with Battle Shout, Rage, everything I could to drop its stats and bring my over its. After that we dueled to the death, as I Overpowered it massivly and then it was over… the final attack Execute finished it off. It dropped nothing at all and it almost pulled the Myrmidons again. It dropped absolutely NOTHING after all the hard work and the survival I had to go through. Well, that was the highlight of my grinding day… by the way I was really close to dying there (1/4 HP left). read more

The LFG Channel(in general)

Hey everyone, it’s Tophius again, but now I’m a level 38 Tauren Warrior now! Have any of you noticed since the latest patch: The Scourge, there have been some problems with the LFG Channel? I’m SO irritated because I’m trying to get a group or a run for Scarlet Monastery or Razorfen Downs and all I see are random conversations. Blizzard put up a notice in YELLOW saying how they should ONLY USE IT FOR LOOKING FOR GROUPS, but obviously no one knows how to read now… reducing your chance to get in a group. Right now I’m going into instances to mass train to get my mount, but these people just ruin my chances. Also, haven’t you noticed that no one is looking for groups now? I mean I’ve spent HOURS looking for a group but not one person was looking for a group. There are major problems ever since /4 went global. Who agrees with??? read more

The Way People React

Hello everyone. This is my very first blog and I hope you enjoy it.

I started playing WoW just a while ago… I have now a level 32 Tauren Warrior. Normally, I’m used to being run out of places (exagerrating on that), because I’m a noob. But, I love the way the level 60s treat me just as if I was a 60 as well. When I ask them for help, they don’t start insulting me like people used to do in Runescape or Maple Story, or any other MMORGP I’ve missed. And I know there are others the same way. For example, I went to Orgrimmar to get a group, but no one my level wanted to do the particular instance. So, I had to resort to the noobish way of asking 50-60 players to help me. If this were another game, they would be all over me… insulting me swearing at me for asking, etc., etc.. But, right away someone whispered me and help me do two instances. Then he gave me 20 gold! All I have to say about the people who play this nicely is : Kudos, and the players who DO insult people should remember… we all started out as noobs before we became the pros. read more
