Playing a low-level Blood Elf hunter has made me a little bit miffed on many levels. Firstly, I'm finally starting to get acquainted with some of those paladin buffs. No wonder the Alliance have always been so far ahead of us in raiding progression! Seriously, if these buffs scale then you'd have to be utter nubs to wipe on any end-game boss. People in my various guilds who have played both factions have always said that playing Alliance was like having the "Easy" button at your disposal, and now I'm starting to get an inkling of that first hand. I'm a little annoyed at Blizzard that they made the two factions so badly unbalanced.

Mind you, not all was rosy on the Alliance side. The same people who would play nothing but Night Elves have invaded the Horde side and created Blood Elves. I had thought that the inane chatter in The Barrens was bad, but spending any length of time in the Blood Elf start area is enough to make one pine for the witty discourse in the former. I'd venture to say that the average age (and IQ) of people jamming up the Blood Elf zone chat seems to be about 13.

"cn u tel me hw 2 mv fwd??????"
"LOL UR DUM!!!!"
"weres irnforj??"

Anyway, my priest dinged 63 today, and I'm loving the new spells and talents. atara and I have combined forces to do the quests in the new zone, and we're carving through the area like a veritable wrecking crew. Since entering the expansion areas I have only died twice - and one of those was due to a bug in one of the quests.

I really hope that the idiot night elf converts level their belf to 20 and give up on the horde side. I know they won't end up in our guild but seeing them continuously jumping around in the low level areas is bad enough.

Y'know, playing a starting Draenei is actually pretty decent, despite being on the Alliance side, because 90% of the Alliance tards are currently tarding up their Belfs. *cry*

Also, I have to say that Gift of the Naaru healing thing is T3H WIN.
