Lo-Quality WoW

PUGs are the bane for most players.  Getting people who may or may not know what they are doing.  Players who are “loot ninjas”.  And of course, the players who just downright jackasses.  Given the nature of the random dungeon in the looking for group interface, you’re going to have some of each.  And unfortunately, my night started with the last set.

Way back when, I sat down and forced myself to grind instances to upgrade my Hunter.  Now I find myself trying to do the same with my Warrior and it’s so painfull.  Part of it, is knowing that since I’m trying to upgrade both her Protection and Fury specs means twice the amount of items to upgrade.  And the other part is the fact that I’ve been running with groups with a good to great skill level and being put into PUGs where it’s obvious people are clueless, it just drives me nuts.

It’s been a real challenge to get to 78 with my warrior. Not her fault really, I just enjoy playing my hunter more. That and also I don’t have the drive or interest of brand new content driving me, meaning her progress has been more of a chore than anything else. But at least I made it to 78, just a bit more pushing should bring her to 80 and then I can piddle around with one of my other characters.

After all the stress from the previous days instances and raids, I just wanted a nice relaxing time tonight. So I logged in and did a few dailies, but as usual, I put myself up in Looking For Group. It’s rather late so I doubt I’d get a 25-man anything but you never know. But after no bites for an hour or two, I remove myself from LFG. And wouldn’t you know it, I get an invite to an instance about 5 minutes later. Weird.

It’s the Lunar Festival and I’m still taking medication! Now Northrend gets a bunch of Elders, of which an annoying number are in instances, which means people who probably don’t do many instances are doing them and others who sort of know what’s going on but really don’t are out there as well. So Achievements, a couple of old quests, and a handful of instances. Not bad for being out of commission for a few days.

It’s amazing, I apparently get more done in WoW when I’m sick. Somehow, people must sense when I wanted to call it a night and that’s when I start getting invites. And of course, being the moron I am, I probably stayed on way past the point I should have. Medicated, tired, sick, it’s amazing I got things accomplished at all…
