Auto Shots » Update /FAIL

Yeah, so I said I was going to be updating this more. That’s working out well so far, meh. I do have a post born from some internal loot drama with the guild that makes me question why we (or I) even play WoW. It’s not a knock against them in the slightest, and more of just a launchpad for looking at why we WoW.

I’ve also been thinking more and more about faction switching one or more toons just for a change of pace. However, my three main characters are a bit of a team for making money, so it’d be hard to split them up. And the thought of turning Minalias into a B-Elf paladin makes me want to fucking puke.

So, to reinvigorate my interest in the game and since I can’t raid much these days, I decided to start PvP’ing more. I used to hate it because I would get owned by anyone and everyone that came along. However, now that I have a better idea what I’m doing, as well as more PvP gear, I’ve racked up quite of kills and PvP achievements.

I’ve been thinking of trying some Arena to get some of the better PvP gear (and the gun *drool*), but I’m not sure I’m ready for that embarrassment. I mean, I can lose gracefully in a BG with 40 other people, not so much in a 3v3.

Pew pew.

I don’t know what to say. The loot rules haven’t changed since you first joined, and I’m honestly very sorry that the old officers lost/got rid of your dkp. We’re both at different places in WoW: I’m leaning more toward hardcore, you’re more casual. I just hate not being able to keep everyone happy.

If and when I finally get around to writing the post, I think you’ll understand a little better. I’m not wanting, nor expecting Summit to change. Nor do I have a beef with any officers or decisions made about loot. This is my dilemma. I’m in a guild, being fully aware of the rules, that when I am able to raid my access to loot is basically nil because of my status in the guild.

The catalyst for this thinking was the 25-man VoA run we did and the ilevel 245 T9 pants dropped. Had I been in a pug, I would have at least had a chance at them, but being as that I was with my guild, I did not due to my status. Something felt wrong about that.

So I have to ask myself: Do I want to be in a guild for loot and achievement or simply to have fun? Where is the balance? Do I want to look elsewhere for a guild that I may have more of a chance to upgrade a toon I’ve worked hard on, but at the risk of raiding with people I don’t like nearly as much (which I do, I sincerely enjoy everyone in Summit)?

When I start to ask myself these questions it makes me wonder what I’m playing WoW for and trying to get out of it. To be honest, it makes me really annoyed when I find myself getting angry over something as stupid as a piece of gear. I don’t want to, but it happens and it shouldn’t.

So that’s where I’m at and that’s why I started PvP’ing, it allows me to enjoy the game without worrying about the things above to take a break from it.

I guess my point is this–Hesston wants a new fucking ranged weapon! That’s all for fuck sake. Can’t an Onyxia 25-man PuG not suck for one second and the gun drop from there!? I mean really, it’s not that hard. Pick up whelps, avoid deep breaths, MORE DoTs!

FUCK!

Everything is cool, no worries Miss Eris.
