Memorable fights - win or lose... - Page 2 - Hunter PvP Discussion - Hunter Forums

Hello Shroudviper, welcome to the Lodge--and yeah, sometimes you run across a few sub-par players in a BG and it's quite evident from how they play. I still give it my all though.

From memory, we once ran a very chaotic WSG where I joined the battle in the middle of a heated firefight smack in the Horde flag room--while I was returning from bios. Thankfully I didn't get killed, although a paladin tried to get a few hits on me while AFK. I jumped into the fray and, after seeing who was doing the healing in the midst of all the chaos, immediately focused on the Disc Priest.

I think we must have spent all of 5 minutes in that flag room with nobody dying. Our healer (a holy pally, I believe) was doing a great job keeping everybody alive, while I was trying to kill a Disc Priest that was being supported by 2 paladins and a shaman. Our FC, who was I believe either a tauren prot pally or prot arms warr, kept holding off the two paladins BY HIMSELF while I kited the disc priest ad infinitum. Nothing like stunlocking with a shale spider to keep a healer from topping off his teammates.

Eventually our away team managed to down the enemy FC in their base, leading to a capture--at which point we died. Everybody was laughing in the GY while waiting for a rez, and I joked "hey, that was awesome...let's do it again". We won that BG 2-0.

I've also had very memorable BGs where there was a lot of impromptu hunter solidarity involved--most often a Battle for Gilneas. Three hunters would ambush unsuspecting cappers at the mines while stealthed, which led to some pretty funny kills involving warriors, priests and paladins (we would own rogues and ferals too, which was rather ironic--stealth vs. poor-man's-stealth). Even funnier was that 2 of us were BM (me with shale spider and the other guy with a spirit beast) and one of us an MM. Cue much crying in agony when 3 pets and 3 hunters would decloak and gang up on a retadin trying to cap the flag, thinking nobody's there. =D

My most memorable hunter solidarity BG was a losing Twin Peaks battle. We were behind 2-0 early in the fight when we decided to wise up and move in groups instead of acting like heroes. Eventually we were able to cap 1 flag, with 2 or 3 hunters working together to take down DKs, shamans and warlocks along with the rest of the DPS while defending the FC from all sides.

We managed to get back and defend the flag room in time when I noticed that the enemy stealthers were sneaking in to try and grab the flag. The ensuing fight saw myself, a fellow hunter and a rogue chasing down a feral who managed to grab the flag, killing her before she could exit the water tunnel.

Eventually our forward team grabbed the Alliance flag, but were having some trouble getting it back to base, allowing the enemy capping team to storm in with an Affliction warlock grabbing the flag and running off. A fellow MM hunter and myself ran after her and bursted her to death, then returned the flag to base. My partner had already swam ahead when I noticed that the lock had Soulstoned herself and was now dotting me up like a kid with a Sharpie and a piece of paper.

Much panic ensues as I was low on health from an earlier assault by an enhancement shammy, but eventually I was able to break Drain Life with an FD, silence the lock, interrupt her with my crab and burst her down before she could kill me. Most heart pounding 15 seconds of my PvP career. I survived, returned to the flag room and resumed defending long enough to cap the winning flag due to Time Over.

In the end, all 3 hunters on my team earned I'm in the Black Lodge, and the whole team earned Double Jeopardy. =D
