Imamu, How I Love Thee.

Lvl 55 now, nothing much of interest yet, though I'll be hitting Blackrock Depths soon. For now, some random shots.

Birdie.

Look familiar?

Best quest ever.

Imamu Swats Some Flies.

I logged on last night just to check my auctions, but right when I get on, I got the call from the guild to go help in Arathi Highlands. Wtf was there, I thought. Well, a bunch of pvp is what, so of course I got there as soon as possible.

The Alliance had pushed everyone back into Hammerfall when I arrived. They had a 60 mage, 60 warrior, 58 warlock, and a smattering of below 50s. We had Imamu: 54 shaman, Kraftdinner: 52 rogue, Girth: 52 warrior, Raized: 40 something priest, and Smokybones: 40 something hunter.

After we killed the mage a few times, she left, and I focused on this warrior here. We tussled many times, but he needs to work on his strafing a bit, as I was able to run circles around him and take him down more often than not.

See? Though in his defense, he seemed to go afk in the middle of this fight. Odd.

Soon we had pushed them back to Refuge Pointe. Here we are during one of the lulls in the action.

Me goofing with that warlock before I flagged again. This guy was tough to kill, he'd hang out by the guards and load up the DoTs. Those DoTs are lethal.

Eventually all but a few lvl 20s left, so while waiting to see if someone else would show up, I decided to have some fun. During this I had a warlock and warrior, both in their 30s, attack me. They hid in town and tried to pick me off from afar. As you can tell from the pic, I'm not much afraid of the guards, so I rushed into town and took em out. And they thought they were safe.

Eventually this 60 pally showed up, and we had some good fun fighting, but then his 60 rogue buddy showed up, and they decided to camp our corpses. Cheapening it all, and taking away the fun.

So Luvincius (Girth's 60 warlock) summoned an Infernal on them. lol

All in all this was a bunch of fun, with many deaths to each side, I think we were pretty even despite being outnumbered (very outnumbered when ya add guards). The Alliance were good sports until those two decided to corpse camp. Dropping a Fire Nova Totem and having the resulting explosion kill those lvl 20s was fun.

Imamu Learns Something....

...When you are level 54, in a battleground full of 60s, no matter now insignificant you are, no matter what other threats are there, the opposing team will kill you first.

Yeah, I tried to so some BG tonight, my first time in the 51-60 bracket. I was expecting to get creamed, but man, the way the horde performed tonight was wholly depressing. I was involved in four battles, and lost 3 of them.

This first shouldn't count, for me atleast, since I joined just long enough to load then see the defeat screen.

The second battle was great. Back and forth with really good teamwork all around. I even solo killed a few lvl 60s, when my computer wasn't freezing every few minutes. This was the battle we won, and it felt like we earned it, none of the 5 minute win crap, this was a real battle.

The last two were horrible. No one listened, and no one stayed together, the alliance won both 3-0. By that time it was past my set time to log off and do other things, so the night ended on a sour note.

Weeeeee.

Ouch.

Wish I had pictures of what that Paladin was usually doing - shielding and running away.

Backup? Thought not. The fact that the lvl 54 was one of the only ones to reach the flag says enough.

When a lvl 54 (me) is the top ranked person on your team, the 9 others being lvl 60, you know you are fucking up somewhere.

Imamu Been Busy, Part II

What was I.....wow, I was lvl 44 when I last posted. Things have changed a bit. I'm lvl 53 now, a little bit from 54, which I'll get tonight. I've done a bunch of stuff, but nothing extremely noteworthy. Well, I guess taking a 4 man group of 49-52 through a Maraudon Princess run with no wipes is pretty noteworthy, also got my much coveted sheild on that run. Anyway, here are some pictures.

Killing the big boss of Uldaman. Our very first try he wiped us....well, him and all the things we wakes up wiped us. Since then, though, we've done farm runs on him getting guildies some gear. He's a pushover now.

Exploring.

Killing Princess on my first trip into Maraudon. Obviously this isn't that four man group I told you about. This group had high 50s, and a 60, and it wasn't as good as my guild 4 man team. This group wiped on Landslide too, whom we plowed with 4, less powerful people. Anyway, she's hot.

Here we are trying to get Emma killed.


Taking one for the team.

The start of one of the funnest fights I've had in WoW. It's an all out battle.

Action and Excitement!

Awesome shot of some fighting in Burning Steppes. I love this zone.

Only shot I have of that awesome 4 man maraudon group I have. We were heading to complete the staff what lets you enter Inner Maraudon, where the Princess and other goodies are.

Last pic for now. Notice the snazzy new interface. Also, Wonder Woman kicks your ass.

More to come, with increased frequency. Newer posts will probably be smaller too, since I wont be covering ten levels in one.
