The Alliance side - Do they all need diapers that badly?
WARNING: If you don't understand / can't handle / are a super salty person that does not understand Sarcasm, read no further.
So I started leveling not too long ago on Icecrown: AS A HORDE to make that clear - I still got my mains on Lordaeron as I do prefer the 1x experience but certain classes just tickles my fancy when I level them without Herilooms so I decided to make these on Icecrown (Warlock, Shaman and Druid for starters)
While leveling I found that the 7x rate with the 5x on professions worked out just nicely, I do get why Icecrown attracts more people than Lordaeron as it's way more casual and "I dont have time to enjoy the game" friendly.
So I went to STV (Stranglethorn Vale) on my Shaman, which I know sounds like a bad choice, Hordes got like 3-4 zones they can pick from at level 30 yet my Shaman wants the skin and lets be honest, what better place to level and get skinning for LW than at the Hunters camp in STV.
Once I sat foot in STV i was hit by a Shadow Word pain and died. Oh well that's fine, it has the name "Gankerthorn Vale" for a reason, so I released and ended up on the GY close to Grom'Gol: ONLY Hordes at this GY.
I then got to the Hunters camp, got my quests and before I managed to kill my first 3 Panthers I had been slain 4 times. But here's the thing(s)
1: At the north GY in STV I found ONLY Horde ghosts - And all of them was level 30-37.
2: Out of the 5 times I had died in STV so far: 4 of them was by low level Alliance people with 1-2 level 80 Body guard(s).
Brings me to my point: On Lordaeron when I leveled up in STV and meet someone from the enemy faction: we just passed by each other, even if the enemy was 8 levels over me or I was 8 levels over them, why can't it just work like that on Icecrown?
And second point: this all seems awfully one sided when there is no signs of high level Hordies around, theres only dead low level Hordes and each low level ally has 2x 80s with em, one to kill mobs for them and one to change their diaper each time they see a Horde as apparently they sh*t themselves of fear when doing so.
Like why does the Ally side lowbies have body guards to wipe their cheeks after each meal when there isn't even a 80 Horde in sight? Why do they need body guards when there is no threat to speak of? How come we just can't pass by each other and level up?
And most importantly: how little does the 80 Allies on this server have to do? Like are they permanently getting wrecked in BGs and WG or something so that killing low level Hordes is their only way to earn som self confidence?
It just caught my attention and I wanted to share it - Now if you excuse me, I am going back on my Shaman to kill and skin that 1 Panther before another diaper kid and his daddy comes along.
For the simple minded: The point of this post was to poke fun at the Alliance needing level 80 help when there is nothing to be afraid of and also poke at how little level 80 Alliances on Icecrown seemingly has to do. If you got ANYTHING else out from this post then please refrain from commenting and boggle your head with it as clearly you can't read between lines.
