almost a decade down the line and they still are OP, only reason I still play that dumb ass game, because has turned into a bunch of running ass, scared little bitches. Why do I tell you that you ask? Well because I was in a BG today, and we are playing a AB like BG called Deepwind Gorge. The game counts down and the gates open, we run over to try and capture the Middle for a good advantage of the stupid Allies.(Guess that tells which side I have alwayz played) Now I play a healer in BG's ever since i first played a BG and got facerolled because of no heals. So I'm a Hpally, and we roll up on the flag, and as usually i hang back just a bit to try to avoid as much combat as possible, so I dont get attack and can be a really effect healer. Which I think in decent healer would do. As I am healing this guys like crazy, and keep them all up mind you with alittle help from an just OP geared Druid standing 5ft from. Just over healing his ass off. Now mind you I dont have the best gear already, because I've only been playing for about a week, which is to say I started last Friday. Where was I, O yes, so as I am healing my ass off, the dps just seem to be running off in other directions for different flags, one here and there. Mind you the Ally are just chasing them down like the little girls they are and killing them cause now they moved way outta my healing range. I realized that they all just gave up and chickened out(including the stupid druid) leaving me and this warlock( who is squishy as fuck and at my maximum range. So I quickly use a speed buff and get closer to him to hopeful share some of the damage so he can dps and not worry about dying so fast. WHAT THE FUCK, do you think he does? The fucking Ally alt little bitch leaves me there with three Allies and saves his own ass.
Now your really asking why the hell am I being told this story. Well its because it leads back to being the point. Which is that pallies after tons of expansions thru new races and class, are still OP. I took a bad beatening from those three and burned all my CD's staying live. The coolest part was 1. I didnt die, despite that fact they were silencing, stunning, CCing the shit out of me to try and kill me. 2. Just as the light was about to fade out and I knew for sure I was gonna die as I was pretty much out of mana and no CD's left. Like half the team showed back up to take the flag.Now thats a true Horde player. One who stands and fights against all the odds. I dearly miss that and it will never come back again and all I'm left with is memories of a once great game and what a time of my life I had. Just one MMO player to his hopefully new community.
Cheers mates.
P.S. Please forgive my abbreviations on some of the wording. It is a habbit.
