Hi all! Servers still down? Looking for something to do? A blog to read? Well, here I am. It has been about a month since my last post. I realize I am not that prolific of a blogger, but at least I was posting at a rate of at least once a week if not two or three times a week. Now my posting rate has dropped down to almost one a month. Why? I can come up with about a dozen different excuses, but the honest answer is a lack of motivation. However, last week I did something I would like to offer commentary on. Arenas!
For the first time in my WoW playing career my rogue has stepped in the world of rated arena play with the start of season 8. I joined two fellow guildies on a 3vs3 team. Royji, a mage, and Popefaks, a discipline spec priest, and I competed in about fifty rated matches last week. Our win/loss record was close to 50% which isn’t too shabby in my opinion for having someone inexperienced with Arena play on the team. Thanks for the matches guys, and I look forward to the rest of the season. Hopefully we’ll end up with some nice PvP gear and titles after it’s all said and done.
On the PvE side of things, not much news to share. Due to work and other RL obligations, my schedule still only permits me to raid one evening a week or sometimes two depending on what I can get worked out. This has really limited my time in ICC which so far is a fun and challenging raid. My other level 80 toons I have, my paladin and priest, have sat idle. They are fun if I want something different to do from my rogue, but they aren’t toons I really want to concentrate on. They hardly ever see any raid action anyways unless it’s for the weekly that happens in one of the early WotLK raids. My goal for them originally was to have those toons be raid capable to help out fill any guild runs so in a sense then, mission accomplished.
My buddy Raquoon over at Shield and Armor whispered me in-game about an idea for our blogs; however, he whispered this at about two o’clock in the morning which by then I am usually falling asleep at the keyboard that late so I didn’t get a chance to hear what his idea was. Guess we’ll see during the usual raid time tonight.
