Pugnacious Priest's Warcraft Blog

So this weekend was a little bit of raiding, a little bit of dailys and gear upgrades,  My Mage Leveled to 51 and got her Alchemy to 341  ( im paying for ports to Shatt to fly to honor hold and train. ) and alot of PVP.

It was the Alterac Valley weekend, this weekend, so Because there was no sceduled raids on unday I did a fair few Av’s  ( after sunwell dailys of  course..  )  It was a good mix of Win / Lose / Win Win/ Lose Lose.   I didnt mind.  It certainly isnt the alliance honour farm it was before 2.3, and we are actually winning some so I don’t mind playing.  I’m going to concentrate on saving more honour for when the next season gear comes out, when ever that it.

Our tactics are now back to zerging…  Which the 1st point of the game is to win,   2nd point, win with as much honour.   So what ever it takes to win right? – as much as I love melting face,  running great distances across a map ALL the time – just isn’t fun.  If you’ve managed to survive the gauntlet to reach Relief Hut,  and kill the GY gaurds( who aren’t all elites now so I can take one flag on with my fear…  ) you then need to wait for everyone else to survive the gaunlet as you have people screaming. Yes.. in Raid chat.  “Don’t dismount! – Keep riding. ” So I gets there and then am  killing the dudes in the towers while waiting for people.

I am usually round the top for Damage on most Av’s and Yeah for decent resist gear.  I am still squishy, but with just under 300 resilence I’m doing ok. I should really find an arena team to upgrade more of my gear in the interim. 

 I worked out how someone can get top in Damage but 4 kills to their name.  ( like I saw in one fight..  )   You take on the individual elites in Av – they hit for crap all like 100 a hit on me with minimal armour.. and then you dps them down. They don’t have stuns or interrupts so its  a survivability race, but you can stand there and slog away and rack up their entire health as Damage, top the charts,  but not necessarily contribute to the battle much.  ( I killed the horde quatermaster once while waiting for reinforcements.. )

So leveling up my Mages Alchemy she gets the training for the health pots, and I’m like ‘Super’ I can make them cheaper then I need to buy, Nope. The Mats to make 10 pots are around 453ish Gold to make.   A massive influx on Ah this weekend meant they were selling for 10 G a stack of 5.   Ow.  How do you make money – admitably doing my sunwell dailys I had 4 healing pots drop for me so that might be driving price down.
