pretty priest at wintergrasp keep while alliance was in control.

the first thing i noticed when i went to wg after the patch was, the walls were down. then realized there's no point keeping them up since we can fly over the zone.

pretty priest is now a regular wg visitor. it's the quickest way to gear up if you don't raid nor run instances. just look at my cute mage who has been to wg regularly since hitting 80. she's all purple now. even though she still sucks at pvp and feeds hordes with free honor kills.

even though i pvp a lot at wg, i still hate it. but... for the gear!

one nice change in the new patch is being able to fly in wg. it's a pain when you can fly but you can't do it. like in dalaran.

as with limiting player numbers, all my 3 toons were able to get in whenever they want to go. no complaint so far.

yet the place still lags from time to time.

sometimes i got auto-invited into raid when battle starts. sometimes i don't.

once i was questing in bt when battle called. instead of zoning me to wg, i was sent back to dalaran. my hearth was used and i couldn't hearth back when battle ends. had to pay flight master to fly home. damn!

in 2 consecutive battles, i didn't receive marks when we lost. logged a ticket. 24 hrs later i still got a message that they're experiencing high volume of petitions.

update: 48+ hrs later, my toons recieved 10 marks in the mail. they probably don't have enough resource to trace log file. i'm not complaining. it was more than i asked for!

pretty priest dinged 80! my 3rd toon to hit 80.

getting to 80 is a major milestone in wotlk. it's the level cap. once you're there, then what?

with pretty lock, it was preparation for raid. she's the main toon. the raiding machine.

with cute mage, she hit 80 so she could ride the bike. it's stupid that you need to hit 80 to ride the bike. it can't fly!

with pretty priest, it was like, oh 80? what am i going to do now?

the first thing she did, even before she went to her 80's traiing, was going to wg. she went to 4 consecutive battles and alliance didn't win any of them.

i'm never a competent pvp player. being the alt of the alts, she spent a lot of time giving hordes honor kills.

pretty priest is going to get her epics from this place.

she has reached a major milestone. level 77! she can fly in northrend!

if you have read my blog long enough you should know that i don't like pvp. i'm not a skillful player. i felt stressed out just by watching the husband played on a pvp server. i don't know how i'll ever survive there.

i have taken cute mage to wg a lot lately. i check the wg timer all the time. a friend teased that i'm addicted. not really.

it's because i have goals.

like getting the mammoth mount. i can buy the mounts from dalaran now. but delaying till her rep with kirin'tor hits exalted. so she can buy the mounts at cheaper price.

cute mage is an alt and doesn't go to raid. since my current goal is to push pretty priest to 80, i don't have time to join guild's alt raid times. pvp is a good way to gear up. cute mage now is almost epic-geared from head to toe! shiny!

and i don't like ugly hordes! i enjoy seeing them getting killed!

the big gate at wg that determines if you win or loose, depending if you're defensing or attacking.

i never get to play this important role. mainly because cute mage is so squishy. she dies before she gets there. she probably could survive if she's more skillful...
