A big fat Warcraft weekend
This past weekend entailed much WoW-play. Mostly a lot of battlegrounds to get my last piece of BG gear (the pants!). BGs have become so fun for me - all the various intricacies of playing your class, the strategy of what your team is doing versus the other.
Perhaps that's why the BG play even spilled over into a dream I had (BG action in real life, with some sci-fi thrown in - I won't go into more detail because it's a freakin dream and no matter what you think, your dreams just aren't that interesting to someone else.)
Arenas have been fun as well, and perhaps the best barometer of how good a player you are. Blizzard has done a really good job with arenas. I mean in one way it sucks that the best geared people are going to smash your face in (and it does take a while to get geared up), but the rating system works pretty well in matching skill levels. It's not ever going to be perfect: people are always looking to game the system, and Blizzard at least attempts to stay one step ahead.
I also leveled up my Warrior (to level 33) and my Mage (34). I've rediscovered both classed and love them both, but feel that I need to settle on one or the other to maximize play time. Do I want to tank or do DPS? Dwarf or Dranei? Also, the Mage makes potions (which rock) and Grackhammer (the warrior) only has mining/blacksmithing which doesn't contribute much to other toons or the guild. Or maybe I just give up on both and focus on getting my main geared up and thru the BC instances.
Gah, I don't know. I suppose just have fun and do what feels right any given day. It's sort of that eternal argument: do you try to control every element of your life, set goals and forge ahead? Or do you throw away the rudder and just GO, letting life sort of guide you.
I think the answer has got to be a little of both. You set your overall goals, you work towards them, but you don't stress about every little thing or if you're not reaching certain ones when you think you should be.
