Heh, I’ve reached a strange point in my WoW life. Up until now I had been leveling up slowly, taking my time, joking in the guild chat, devoting time to explore the world and the places I’m not supposed to be at.<\/p>\n
Thanks to the wonderful dynamics of a PvP server, all that is changing. After level 40 or so, solo questing and hunting has become a real chore, with zones full of red-named players that want to see you die, no matter the means or the (lack of) reward. The last time I had a balanced battle was at level 29. Since then, it’s been all gangs of 3 against 1, level 60s ripping me apart in a few hits, players that wait until your health bar is low from fighting mobs before attacking you. Hunt for a few minutes, die an unavoidable death and spend the next 5-10 minutes getting back to your corpse. I have tried to join the dynamic, and it made me even more sick.<\/p>\n
Considering the only reason I am in a PVP server is the people I guild with, and that being a slower than average player prevents me from playing with them, I have reached a point where either I pump levels to catch up with them (high-end, gank-free instances) or I’ll leave the server and the friends.<\/p>\n
I suspect my enjoyment of the game will not survive this change of pace. It’s the best, most polished, most fun, funny and entertaining MMO I have tried, but sometimes the universe just conspires<\/i> against us.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
