Binge Alting.

Where do I begin? This blog has been woefully neglected over the last few weeks and I apologize. I imagine most of you can relate to hectic work schedules. It seems where I work as a graphic designer it’s feast or famine. Finally, I have run out of projects. Today happens to be our Christmas Holiday party and everyone is distracted by the loud, drunken, hullabaloo that will begin at 6:00.

A few weeks ago, I spend some time binging on the Wow drug know on the street as “alts.”

It started innocently enough. Cerwyn was doing some ogre related quest and I happened to team up with a frost mage. I like grouping because it’s a great chance to show off. The reality is I usually could handle the situation by myself, but if there is another Alliance member working through the crowd towards the same named boss as me I tend whisper, “Wanna group up?” Rather than stealing the kill and making them wait for a respawn. I’m not a hunter jerk.

So we group up and now it’s my time to shine. I hit my “Pet Attack” macro (Cast hunter’s mark then pet attack rolled into one button. Courtesy of BRK.) and hit “Beastial Wrath” and “Intimidate”. Then Concussive Shot, Rapid Fire, Arcane Shot, Steady Shot, etc.

*/ On a side note. When I brag about great dps, trapping, pet tanking, or whatever else it’s not meant in an egotistical way. I’m not bragging about my personal skills. I’m bragging about the hunter class in general. As a player, I’m average at most. However, any player with the proper education can maximize their character’s potential. That is what this blog and so many others are about. /*

Usually regardless of what class is in my team I do at least 100 dps more than them (if not considerably more). So on this occasion I did around 400 dps. Which for me (a hunter at 64) is typical. And my co-destructor: 800.

“Omg, wtf. He didn’t even break a sweat.”

So this event began my renewed interest in Catja – human mage.

To be continued…later this afternoon.
