I'm sure you people have witnessed some amazing or laughably pathetic ganks (or initiated them yourself).
No Name-Shaming or Witch hunting.
This isn't meant to be a thread for you to whine about that one end-lvl guy who killed you once while you were questing in a lvl 20 zone, but rather about memorable scenarios such as this one I recently had on Outland:
Was questing in Shadowmoon; Warlock swoops by while I was handing in a quest, spamming dots on me. I CC him, pop cds -> he gets nuked faster than he applied all dots. 15 minutes later, same guy pops up while I'm fighting some mobs -> gets owned in the same way again. 5 minutes later I can see him lurking on his horse waiting for me to get into combat. I ignore him, but lo and behold he brought a gankmate. I CC him while nuking his friend with cooldowns and then promptly disengage and flee since I was on low HP (about 500). The second I sit down to eat, I can see him on the horizon, riding on his horse towards me, so I get on my own mount and ride away from him (didn't want to risk him getting a dot off on me while on a slow flying mount).
Guy chases me from Hand of Guldan, Shadowmoon all the way into Shattrath City and then stands there while I'm in the safe zone, spamming /laugh at him. Shortly after he rode back to Shadowmoon.
Now I don't mind some good old fashion ganking, but man do I have to laugh sometimes at how far some people take it.
I had to make sure not to run into obstacles since I was laughing too hard after seeing him still chasing behind me when I left Shadowmoon Valley.
I don't know whether to applaud or pity that determination.
I don't have any stories of exceptional determination; just one that made me laugh.
I was leveling my feral druid, questing in Borean Tundra, over by Taunka'le Village. Halfway through fighting a mob, a rogue jumped me.
I shapeshifted to bear form, calmly finished off the mob, and still took out the rogue. In between the chuckles, I almost felt bad for the little scoundrel.
When i get new pet i like to level it to 79 @ sindragosa fall in IC - its my favourite place due low population and nice number of mobs.
so i just go easy and do my "relax brain" thing, and when i was on like 70% hp, popped Bwrath horde KINGSLAYER stealthed dudu attacked me from behind, killed and ofc laughed at me.
I dont get it, he could easy oneshot me, why stealth, and why laugh? So sad...
