Tank Progression

So I was thinking the other day about tank progression in MMOs.  The tanks are the ones that need the gear the most out of anyone else.  Tanks are the ones that need the gear first because they are the ones that need to progress the most so the whole group can.

Without the tanks getting gear there isn't a way for anyone else to progress in the game as far.  At least in WAR tanks need to be fully warded for every instance they do.  Well at least the main tank does.  While every other person in there can be 3/5 wards and still be able to do it.  Without the tank being fully warded it makes everything that much more difficult.

This is where I think WAR has had trouble with in the beginning and still does for new up and coming guilds.  With there random loot drop from the higher dungeons it is hard to gear up a tank.  I remember when I was in League of Light my guild was waiting on me to finally get fully warded to run LV.  We had the dps and the healers ready but not the tank.  Because I couldn't finish my set.  I know this has been a problem with other people to waiting on there tanks to get warded enough to run the instance.  Now it isn't as much of a trouble with how easy it is to get invader tokens but it still can be a problem with some guilds.

I am not sure how it is other MMOs and if you could post a comment about how important it is for tank progression in other MMOs I would appreciate it.

E-Peen Flexing

Yea thats right I am flexing my e-peen right now.  You are probably asking yourself, Blaze why are you flexing your e-peen right now.  Well I will tell you the reason.  This is why.  Yea our guild was the guild interviewed for the Guild Spotlight on WHA.

I have been reading some of the comments left by the European Players and they have there knickers in a bunch.  Sorry I just wanted to say knickers in a post because I never thought I would.  So knickers, knickers, knickers, and knickers.  Ok now that is out of my system.  They were saying that WHA is US-centric and saying that most US guilds would not last a second on an EU server.  I think most EU guilds would not last that long on our server.  The reason being is that there is actually competition on US servers instead of people just rolling over dieing which is what is seems like is happening on the EU servers for both sides.  I just wish there was a way to test out to see who is the best.  Who has the best 6v6 or 12v12, I want to find out.  I want to find and fight tougher groups of destro.  Oh well until Mythic introduces something like that sometime it will just be going back and forth and saying we are better.  Which we are.

Challenge

So I have off today for Martin Luther King Jr. day and I am sick.  Not a good combination IMO.  I was hoping to get a good day of WAR in, instead I am laying on the couch right now watching a movie and typing this out because I can't concentrate enough to play WAR well.  Anyway this isn't what this post is about.  This post is about a challenge that I wish Mythic would introduce in WAR.  That challenge is a full on 6v6 across servers to see who actually has the best 6 man out there.

The reason this came up is really because of the Warhammer Alliance Guild Spotlight page on DROW.  We started to talk about in our vent how we don't think there is any guild on any server that could beat us in a 6v6.  I just don't think anyone could handle our melee train.  I wish Mythic would have a huge tournament one day between all the top guilds on every server.  If they did something like this it would have to be a round robin type tournament.  If they did something like this you wouldn't even need to give the winner anything because they would have bragging rights over everyone.  Well I guess a title would be pretty cool or something to go on a guild standard.

Anyway I would love to challenge all the other so called good destro guilds out there and show them how good we are.

Forum Warrior

So over the weekend I made a post on WHA calling out how all destro are terrible players and that they have no good premades and that they only know how to zerg.  Which I still stand by for the most part.  Anyway what I am getting at is that the forums have gotten to nice.  No one is flexing there epeen anymore on there.  Instead everyone is saying how good the other side is and how much they like each other and they are saying congrats for little things and such.  I am tired of it.  I want people to start calling out people for getting owned in an SC or in ORvR.  I want each side to hate each other, which they should.  I want epeen waving everywhere.  So get to it.
