Belfadin, still likin' it.

Earlier today, as I was wandering around Hillsbrad pretending to be a harbinger of light by helping randoms I encounter this hunter. He didn't say anything at all, even though I was trying to communicate with him as we were killing Yeti. And, as you guys all know, I normally play as a hunter.

He was BM spec, level 25 (which is 5-6 levels lower than the yeti), and clearly didn't know how to play as a hunter. Naturally I was trying to help him out and give helpful tips but I don't think it was working.

Said "helpful tips" included such things as; "Hunters perform best from range." "Aspect of the Cheetah isn't very useful when fighting, you should use Aspect of the Hawk." "If you're going to melee (which you shouldn't because you're a hunter) you should do so from behind the mob being tanked." "Seriously, hunters should avoid melee at all costs." "Beast Masters should use their pets, it's kinda their strong point." and "Next time warn us before you pull 3 mobs so that the tank can get mana" after a particularly annoying random uninformed pull that we managed to survive due to me being prot spec'd.

He just didn't say anything...it was highly awkward. No confirmation, no insults, no "shut up, you're not a hunter," just nothing. If he wasn't face-pulling so much I wouldn't have minded it as much, but he just wasn't performing well and I was trying to be helpful....I just ended up randomly ditching them and headed back to Tarren Mill to rest up for the night.

Other than that weirdness, I had a highly enjoyable time getting back into being a prot pally. Little damage taken, tons of health, healing myself after battles, and grabbing/holding aggro like I had no idea was possible to control (due to the nature of my main characters). I may be back to it, contemplating a realm change though (to make room for Francois (French Deathgnome of Yore)) but I don't know anyone that's a hordie that wouldn't mind hanging out with me.

Anyways, I'm gonna head off...to...do...stuff...

Good Hunting,
