BG: Battlegrounds

ARATHI BASIN (ab)






Arathi basin: Its my personal favorite bg, way it looks is nice with the green grass and water...
its pretty simple to play, but most of the players dont know how... they are just rushing to others main GY, from alliance maingy to horde and so on... and they stay there just killing enemys and dont care shit about our bases, this is the minddles zerG group.

few easy facts to help you WIN ab:
1. Get BS! (black smith), its most important base in the battleground, why? i thell you : in PUG- group ( random group) most of the players just goes to one way and kills the first ally who comes on their way after resurrection in BG, that happens again and again until the bg is over, SO if we have BS witch is in middle of the bg, the mindless players got meny options witch way to go, so they spread araund more than usual from the other bases... that makes them more usefull... sounds tarded huh? its a fact.

2. If you cap a base alone, STAY there and deff it atleast until its totaly capped to horde or alliance. ( report for incomings on BG chat) that helps alot sometimes

3. this is in BG's on general... you dont have to kill all enemys coming near you, if you got better things to do like " go help in deff fast" or cap a base fast" you can just try PASS the enemy. simple? not to all.

4. controlling atleast 3 bases, is INUFF to gain victory.

5. Using a macro to say at start of the bg. Group 1 (do this) Group 2 (do this) Group 3 ( do this).
helps in PUG's if ppl belive you.




WARSONG GULCH (wsg):
AS an idea its most simple bg of them all, 2x bases, 2x flags, 2x teams... get enemy flag and run it to your base.

In wsg there is meny different tactics, ill thell two of them.

1. so its 10 vs 10, ONE powerfull player, " high geared rogue is good" in DEFF, so he can drop enemy single flag carriers, who just passed the field and trys to get the flag alone, AND if he cant handle the FC (flag carrier) or there is too meny of them, rogues can use SAP to them, to slow them down. belive me, if the enemy FC gets out of your base... change of getting it back is ALOT less.

So: one is in deff, others go get flag in group and while going there few of the group probly is going to fight in middle field, and healer+ best FC ( tank, plate user, in some cases "mage") are best, goes to get the flag, and simply run back to own base with healers... and when you do that " the middle zerg group" moves with you... and the "slowed" or killed" enemy FC is still in your base or just going to exit it, and then simply, the zerg group deals with it.


2. ZERG wsg, in wsg if the other team is more stronger this works fine... simply, put ZERG under the enemy GY, and few can go up, too the GY. and while that, good FC and few guys 1 or 2... runs the flag... the 1-2 helpers dont need to stay with the FC eny longer than the start... when its out of the enemy base " fine" done...






Alterac Valley: AV

AV: is huge 40 vs 40 fight, so the tactics realy arent that working since there is so meny ppl.
BUT if you wanna be usefull player in AV, there is few things you can do.

1. DEFF capped bunkers /towers, untill they are destroyed. Dont leave them alone"

2. at start, try to rush in "Dun baldar" if you are horde, or to Frostwolf keep if you are alliance... and cap evrything there, if you get them caped and fully destroyed / fully caped... it helps ALOT your team at end.

3. TiP 2 happens realy often, so you know maybe alliance or horde " your enemy" does the same... if you dont wanna go attack, you can stay in DEFF on your main base, and deal the single attackers at start.



These 3 are major bg's, and these 3 are the ones i play... so cant say about the others.
AV: most honor! in bg lvling, most EXP!
WSG: Can be realy fast bg, or max 20 min ( time litmit, 3.2)
AB: Good cap+deff bg, nice outfit greeny and natural. can be realy fast or realy long.


Personaly i like ab or wsg most, i have all of them exalted and after that iv been playing most WSG.

World of Warcraft my personal tips

Hey, so iv been playing WoW araund 4 years now... so i can say i know pretty much about the game and i wanna help beginners with few basics:

Key Bindings:

keybindings are must have thing, if you wanna succes in the game... pressing button on your keyboard to react is always faster, than drag your mouse OVER a spell/attack in your spellbars and after you get used to playing with all binds, you dont even have to think what your doing.

always bind your spells/attacks smart! what i mean by that is, lets say ur moving with (w,s,a,d) witch is most common keys for moving in all games on pc, BIND your spells/attacks witch requires fast reaction time and reflex near thous, and by near i mean... near inuff so you dont have to slice your wrist on the keyboard when you react, but to be honest there is no room for all binds, thats why its very important to bind smart, spells/attacks witch does not require that great speed to react can be used in not that good binds, becourse its always better than clicking on your mouse...




Moving ingame with your character:

This is most common thing to spot " noob " from average wow gamer.

DO NOT turn araund in game, with your keyboard... press your mouse buttons and hold them, to move and turn araund, realy usefull trick to do on your mouse is, when you are jumping turn 180 degrees, " Shoot" or what ever class you are playing ( its not that usefull to all classes) and then 180 degrees back, so you went 360 degrees and that happens pretty fast with mouse, REALY usefull for hunters and mages on "kite" purposes.


LEARN all classes :

Okey you are playing warrior " why i should know basics of class mage? " reason is simply, you need to be able to react fast and " counter" things your opponent is doing, and you have to know his next step before he does it, realy good example is in warrior vs mage duel, when you " intercept" to mage, then often mage blinks away... so the mage overplays your intercept, So you know this will happen -> when you intercept, be alredy spamming "piercing howl" and be also ready to turn behind of you where the mage is after blink, piercing howl slows the mage down... and by being straight after intercept going to right direction helps you to get near the mage...

another great example is, if you are playing frost mage, lets say you duel a rogue " you kind of kite him and got the rogue on snares" and your pet is opened " water elemental" ... never use the pet's ranged frost nova at start, wait until the rogue uses " vanish" to get out of snares or what ever, then be ready to use pets frost nova, on the spot where rogue used his vanish and you just overplayed his vanish...


Hope this helps...
