Yes, it’s frustrating when you see the red tags coming over the horizon and you know the opportunity is lost, at least you are smart enough to run away from a pointless battle.

The other thing that has been frustrating me lately is copying up to the flag for a ninja, only to watch my team mates rush to the flag to fight… so many lost ninja opportunities. One BfG a rogue and I had a long bitch about people ruining our ninja attempts, but it never sunk in.

I’m in Gilneas, it’s me (frost dk) lock and boomkin running to WW. One ret pally on D, so I silence then freeze him and start to cap. The lock and chicken dot him up breaking the cc. I say “fear him” “cc and cap” “Oi! cc and cap fuckers” meanwhile he’s aoeing the flag and staying alive like a boss. Then his team shows up so it’s 7-8 vs 3, so I gtfo. Lock/chicken go last stand mode instead of running away, and get 30 seconds at the gy to ponder being bad. We lose. WHY U NO CC kfdddjdkrbtjdi pug bgs make GORBAG ANGRY

Yeah BfG can be controlled well with a couple of “unkillables” scouting from the middle/hill.

I have been in too many BGs where once the Healer count is shown (eg: 1H/4A) people get excited… but that means:
1) 3 extra DPS to burn you down
2) If you don’t kill the one healer (who in theory they are more aware of), then the DPS just destroys.

Unfortunately most people don’t know how to deal with a cleave team, and get more worried about incoming damage than outgoing heals.

The problem is, they can kill that much quicker, that then require less heals… if they don’t have any heals you can have a better chance… but CC is important.. but then, isn’t it always?

It seems like Battle for Gilneas is a terrible offender for that – at least it happens frequently there for me.

I had a similar situation – not so much that it was people killing a prot warrior – but the other team has 1 – yes 1 healer… and yet in the mass mess that was happening continually at water works I was the only one targeting the healer… and I couldn’t take that pesky pally out by myself. I guess I stopped the pally healing anyone else – but they couldn’t wipe out the rest before reinforcements arrived.

You got *Cough*… Grats on that!

We had a cough over the weekend too…

Yes, you are correct.

If I had that warrior & pally, plus a couple of the rogues from my previous post on my team I’d be a happy Gnome.

H.I. = good
A.I. = bad

Yes its sad, however it does also work in reverse. Watching 4 plate dps chase me around in circles while the feral I am with picks them off . Running past the flag this last AB weekend, to stun the first, jump and down and as much as possible convince them they should kill the healer and ignore the flag being capped.

I did finally pick up we had it all along and in fact the hard way 1600 vs 1590.

In the words of the late, not-so-great Nefarian:

Lord Victor Nefarius yells: Foolsss…Kill the one in the dress!

It still applies… even if his dress is made of metal.
