My first day in PvP Kindergarten.
Aww. How cute, my hunter wants to be a good PvPer. So, um…how does one become a good PvPer? I imagine it takes some of the following:
Knowledge of your class
Fearlessness
Quick reaction time
Planning
Thinking quick on your feet
So far, I have none of those things. I’m in Ironforge. I remember that I need to train my level 60 abilities, and spend 50+ gold on them. I respecced my pet for good measure. I go up to the ramp, and queue up for AV. Now, I’ve NEVER been to AV. EVER. I do know that it is a large battleground, filled with towers and there are bases and NPCs and bosses and that’s about the extent of my knowledge. I must read up on AV.
Below is a commentary on the video of my first AV action.
So anyway, I’m in a cave with some birds and stuff, so I figure I should probably not stay here (I cannot find anything worth defending). Ah! The map! I should check out where my teammates are! The map instantly confuses and intimidates me. Where do I go? What do I do when I get there? HEY! There is a cow trying to take what looks like one of my flags.
/kill cow
ALRIGHT! Now we’re smokin! Ohh, look there are lots of horde right here. BRK says to find a squishy and let your pet eat them. OK! Done. Another kill. Aww look at the kitty with horns behind me. Cute little guy. OW BAD KITTY. GET AWAY! WHOA - what are these guard guys doing here? Feign Death. lol. Ok, I should be doing more killing. Multishot, Aimed shot, Bestial Wrath, WHOOHOO!
ahh. I’m dead now.
There may or may not be a WWS report of this encounter.
Things I learned:
- AV could be fun if I learned more about it
- I think I can handle pretty much any class in PvP if I do things right
- I do not know how to do things right
- Don’t go into Battle with an unfamiliar or messed up User Interface
- If I got “lost in the crowd” I could be pretty effective
- It feels pretty good to see my kitty pwning clothies
- I suck at kiting
It was a fun experiment, something I wouldn’t mind trying again. Any advice for me? What my strategy should be?

Man, it’s so hard to tell what’s going on because the screen is so small and there is no sound. Where is your sound?
I’ve never gotten good at anything except Rogue, and my strategy was “sneak up, kill one in about .3 seconds, sprint away, turn invisible” so I’m afraid I can’t give much advice. That and I haven’t played WoW in over a year…
I dunno. I gotta look into editiing these movies some how. I’ll check into it, maybe you just gave me another blog post.
