Alterac Valley - The Holiday's Over 1/4/10

The holiday weekend is finally over in Alterac Valley, not that the Alliance is doing much better. I fought in 2 Battles on Wranngar, both losses, and 12 battles on Gomorra, 5 wins and 7 losses.

The Alliance still doesn't seem to have it together. For the most part the people seem more interested in whining than winning. The bickering never stops. Gomorra is not well geared yet, that is why he is in there, and he is having a hard time against the geared Horde. He does a lot better in situations where he can stand back behind the melee DPS and cast spells without having to come into physical contact with other players, he wears cloth. Unfortunately with all the AFK that is harder to do than it should be. The AFK problem is worse than I have ever seen it and if Blizzard says they are doing something about it, and they do, they are lying.

All in all though, Gomorra is wracking up the kills and getting honor. I could buy one piece of gear with the honor I currently have but I am holding out for a more expensive piece which I should be able to get tomorrow. All told I am going to need about 300,000 honor to gear him. If we keep losing in AV that could take awhile. I am hoping it will get better, back to the way it was. The battles starting off so unbalanced aren't helping either, we had one that started off 13 Allaince versus 40 Horde. That had us outnumbered 4 to 1... Another Blizzard fail. We are lucky if we have 25 to the Hordes 40 when we start.

The 2 battles Wranngar was in were no better. The battles started off very unbalanced and the people were pretty inexperienced. There is one person in there, Opie, who cries through every battle. He keeps telling everyone to go to WoWHead and learn how to fight in AV. I am all for people going to the forums and any other place where they can learn how to fight better but this persons plan he spams throughout the battle, when he is not crying, is to take every graveyard between our base the Frostwolf Keep. What happens then? All the Horde are rezzing at the relief hut in FWK and we can't get in there. I checked him out in the Armory and he has less than 1,500 HK's and is wearing blues and greens, he is less geared than Gomorra. Not someone who I would listen to when it comes to battleground strategies. Evidently he learned everything he knows about AV from WoWHead and has no real experience. Real experience is the only thing that is going to help you in AV, reading about it is Ok to give you an idea, but being there and doing it is the only way you are really going to learn.
