I run a lot of Wintergrasp — usually forming the raid. I don’t do too many instances, so, getting 100 Stone Keeper’s Shards took me a bit longer than people that run instances. When turning in ‘Stop the Siege’, a quest in Wintergrasp, I hit the 100 mark.

Win Alterac Valley while controlling both mines and you earn this achievement. Qwaitxseven, normally a shadow priest, respecced Disc to try out a few battlegrounds to see if healing was in his blood. With Dual Specs coming soon, cdthirtyfive might become Holy/Disc for PVE, and Disc/Holy for PVP. Qwaitxseven will probably go Shadow and Disc [...]

Horde on Cho’gall defends poorly. Out of perhaps 30 games where we have defended, I can think of only a handful where we have successfully defended. Once an outer wall is breached, because the glitch exists, more people need to fall back to prevent vehicles from coming in. The guns need to be manned and [...]

A few names consistently show up with glitchers. In the first picture, you can clearly see Barlar’s demolisher is laying on its side going through the door. The second shot shows the resulting map after Horde lost control. Note that only the exterior walls are down and the interior walls have not been touched. The [...]

Today, cdthirtyfive was up near the battlemaster, no one had started a group so I fired up InviteMe and created a raid group. It filled up fairly quickly and we still had about 10 minutes until the Battle for Wintergrasp. A second group was started which filled up almost as quickly. The leader of that [...]

Alliance on Cho’gall will do anything to win. Horde does control Wintergrasp about 80% of the time, so, I can see some of their frustration. In the last few days I’ve played roughly 30 rounds of the Battle for Lake Wintergrasp. In those 30 games, Horde has been on defense for 20 of those and [...]

cdthirtyfive loves AV, or used to. AV at 80 and the changes that WotLK brought has really changed the game. Van can be tanked with 2-3 adds which significantly changes the game. It used to be that you had to wait for the towers and bunkers to go down. Now, with 2-3 guards at his [...]

cdthirtyfive played a few SotA and it took a few games to get into a group that actually knew what the goal was. Once we got a decent group, we defended long enough that we had about 7 minutes to secure a victory. While our team was split on the boats, it was decided that [...]

cdthirtyfive ran a few Strand of the Ancients while waiting for the battle for Wintergrasp to begin. During one of them it was all I could do to get off the boat, follow the mass of players as we stormed in, healed a few players and captured the relic. Our efforts were in vain as [...]

cdthirtyfive got back into the battlegrounds and is running with a scrub mix of gear, but, I’m able to heal quite a bit before I get killed. In this one Arathi Basin it was a complete mess. Horde left a number of flags undefended which required recapping them, but, all in all with a few [...]
