Ganking Hordes, It's All Fair

HER: I'm not a fan of PvP servers, though I happen to be on one, but some of the moments are priceless. Today, in Honor Hold, there was a horde hunter, Nicknator, who was ganking in Honor Hold and killing our rogue alts. He was so skill-less, he killed me and then stayed on top of the stone in Honor Hold at half HP, waiting for me to rezz. (Or maybe he was way more cocky than he should have been.) Well, I like to pay back their kindness five folds. :>. Thrones had been moved to Honor Hold earlier so my boyfriend just logged onto Thrones and killed the hunter. And very easily since the Horde had just dinged. I guess learning how to kill level 60s was all he'd learned so far. He later attacked the eastern tower guards and was smashed by Thrones and a nearby Mage when we discovered him there. We waited for his corpse but missed him rezzing. That I had to give to him, how he constantly rezzed without our notice. Then Thrones flew around and I watched Honor Hold and saw him rezz and go onto a side wall to pick off a lv 67 Alliance. How much lower can he go. Though I guess as a hunter that is technically what he does: kill from afar. I called Thrones over and he easily killed the hunter. After this, the hunter became smarter and mounted quicker, but Thrones still slowed him with Chain of Ice and dotted him down to 25%. When he became cocky again and flew too low, Thrones DoT-d him again and killed him as he flew away. We did it once more, so a total of four kills, but the last time, he died while trying to fly higher and ended up dying very high in the air. XD. Finally he couldn't take it any more and logged out.

And for those curious, we did manage to pay him back five times. :>. Later, after a paladin killed us (who got away), we saw the hunter again and gave him our thanks again. After that, we didn't see him again; I guess he finally was too full of our generosity.

On a different note, I should write about the guild we've joined a few months back. :>. So stay tuned! :D.

HIM: There isn't much for me to say, but Luxuran still wants to me post. All I did was camp his corpse, kill him when he resurrected, then camp his corpse again, and kill him when he resurrected. Once again, I camped his corpse but didn't manage to kill him and was forced to put diseases on him and watch him die slowly. Then camped his corpse again, tried to kill him but failed, and was forced to put diseases on him again. And then I died, because I fell from too great height. And then he logged off.

Rogues' Testimony

BOTH: This isn't about our Lux pair but still interesting…

HER: Recently we've been training our rogues, trying to get to 50 (so I can learn more Leatherworking recipes and he can raise Engineering some more) and while questing, we like to queue for random instances. (They're a nice break from questing, the goodie bag (Satchel of Helpful Goods sometimes (being the operative word) gives a nice upgrade, and the extra gold's just the cherry on top.)

We were taking a small break from level leveling to level our lockpicking in Angor Fortress in Badlands. Up popped the announcement that a team was found and luckily for us, it was Zul'Farrak since we had the Troll Temper quest to complete. After a few pulls, our tank just up and left us. I still have no idea why… So as rogues, we started Sapping the humanoids. The hunter and my boyfriend (since he's such a great rogue!) held aggro and we managed to go past quite a few groups of mobs, until the next tank came in, asking why the last left; was it because people kept pulling aggro.

From there, it was just a normal run until the stairs encounter. The tank decided she was confident enough (she asked if she should and I replied, if you feel confident enough) and pulled the whole first group, leaving just us two rogues to try to hold out until the others could revive themselves and run back where we were. My boyfriend did most of the aggro holding, though I'd like to say I did a decent share. :P. And between Evasion, Vanish, and Heavy Runecloth Bandages (thank god for them!!), we managed to stay alive and the rest of the team was back in action just before Nekrum Gutchewer.

That is one trick I hope we don't have to pull for a long, long time.

For curiosity sake, we're level 46 and 45 (her and him) and questing in Tanaris. It's nice since we just portal to Caverns of Time from Dalaran.

And I love wowhead.com… Nicely "reminds" me of items, mobs, places, and just things in general.

HIM:
The Stairs.

God's most cruelest joke or the most fun part of Zul'Farrak.

As it turned out for us, it was both.

Our tank rushed forward and decided to pull the entire mob that spawned at the bottom of the stairs, dying shortly after the pull. Mainly because the healer wasn't ready.

Soon our hunter followed and our healer, well let's just say our healer got off easy. He didn't have 20 mobs with murderous intent to bludgeon him to death.

But we rogues have stared Death in the eyes and laughed at him.

So we stood our ground at the hordes of mobs running up the stairs. We knifed and striked from the shadows, vanished and bandaged when we could. We bided our time when we needed to.

And on the battle went until finally the hunter ran back into the fray and all hell broke lose.

When the dust finally settled, two rogues silently vanished back into the shadows, leaving the lone hunter on top of the pile of bodies, littered at his feet.
