The Battle for Arathi Basin - Daily Battleground 12/16/09

Today my daily battleground was Arathi Basin. This is another battleground the Alliance used to do real well in and now are lucky to get out of with less than a Horde 5 cap.

I blame a lot of the problems in the battlegrounds on the achievements although there are more and more people in the battlegrounds that seem to have no clue what they are doing. Probably in there for the achievements... People are more worried about getting their achievements done than they are in winning. That is why you have people starting a cap and riding away, they are working on their achievements. At least I hope that's what it is an they are not just so stupid that is the best they can do.

I fought in 3 battles on Wranngar, 2 losses and, finally, a win.

It was the same old story in there, people not defending nodes, people going off in ones and twos to try and cap another node, people fighting in the roads instead of anywhere where it matters, it is sad the Alliance went from doing so good in there to doing so bad. In every battle I was in we had at least 3 nodes at one time, and the battleground leader and others were calling out to just defend what we had, but no one listens and we lost the nodes due to no defense.

I finally got this daily done and hope I don't see if again for awhile. It is AB's holiday weekend this weekend and if it comes up during that I am not even going to take it. I turned this in for 19g86s, 1241 bonus honor and 25 arena points.
