BG forums lounge (Part 1)

That’s only for epics. Small Bgs are much less.

Yet another reason why I never do epics :joy:

Epics are actually amazing honor/per hour on an Alliance character… IF (and only if), you actually get wins.

…winning is the hard part :joy:

I’m proud to have helped do my part to get those Alliance teams some good honor.

Lol I don’t care too much about honor… I just play what’s fun, it’s a game after all :joy: it’s why I laugh at pvers in gd who call PvP a mini game when PvP is the only part of the game I played tbc-legion.

The only time I had fun in epics (as enhance particularly) was when I que with a bunch of friends and try to hold out in a bunker in AV while 10+ enemies try and take it from you. Definitely had that duking it out in a bunker feel. I haven’t found anything I like in ioc/ashran/wg and with no black list that’s pretty low chances of getting what I want.

While lots of people have no genuine interest in PvP, I am quite certain that many others call it a mini game because phrasing it like that helps them rationalize their fear of participating and discovering that they’re terrible at it.

100% lol people mentally can’t handle loosing or admitting that it could be their fault.

So this is a week late response, but the whole reason this character exists is that once i transferred OG fred to zuljin and he became barrington, I made this one on emerald dream and he took over the forum numbers.

It’s stupid, but that’s how it works. It’s attached to name and server only.

Interesting.
I moved my main rogue to a diff server and took the name on this toon. Hadn’t noticed the post count assimilated too.

So if someone deletes a toon and a different person takes that name, do they inherit the post count too?

It would appear so.

That’s, like, 37% more work than I’m willing to do.

There is some super strange quirks with this forum software they decided to use pretty much straight out of the box.

The greatest priestly thing to do in this game is in Twin Peaks. I must confess I get tunnel vision in this BG and forget all about the objectives, because Horde get so triggered by the mind controlling off their graveyard into the waterfall. I put feathers up there to speed their journey along too. If you get a mass spawn, they’ll try to kill me but then I just shining force and easily send 2-3 of them to a watery grave.

Try it, it is honestly the greatest. That and running the flag carrier into the waterfall too as they always seem to come down the right side of the base!

I hear ya. I knew about it already when I transferred, so I immediately made an actually fat Fatfreddy to take over the never-will-get-to-trust-level-3-because-reasons throne

If y’all ever need help, I have a range of tanks, healers and damage dealers at my disposal. I try to get at least my 15 done each week but happy to help out if ever you need warm bodies.

Also happy to help gear @Jadei if they rejoin!

When I played Ele Sham in MoP I loved doing Twin Peaks battlegrounds because almost every enemy flag runner goes past that waterfall. Thunderstorming people off the cliff for auto flag returns was great.

Awesome. We are horde though if you have any horde toons. I don’t think I have you on btag if you want to add me. (or anyone else)

I can’t remember if you’re in my btag list

In early mop you could MC an orb carrier in temple, or flag carriers in wsg/tp and have your pally friend bop them so they’d drop the orb or flag.

That was a favorite of mine until they patched it away.

Or (with friends) get someone almost dead, mc them, friend heals them up, rince and repeat.

I wish I liked shadow, because I want to play my priest so much, but ever since legion and the voidform I level it and abandon it.

I too strongly dislike voidform. It’s only “fun” in long fights like raid bosses and raiding isn’t very fun… only the social aspect is.

It’s also klunky. Like mindflay filler, and then voidbolt is almost off cd, but mindblast is just off, and then just the overlapping and all that.

I miss big dam devouring plague with 3 orbs.

I honestly like playing my spriest without voidform lol. I wish that was an option. Like make 2 different playstyles like they are doing with frost dk (2hander/dual wield) and fury.
