3.1 Warrior to Raid or PVP...THAT is the question.

*sigh*
I’m generally not one to admit defeat, so I’m not going to start now, but what I will admit is that sometimes you need to change course, refocus, develop a gameplan and move on.

So back to my arena team. Like I said before I’m still using a titan steel destroyer. I need only 1 ring, a belt, and a back to be fully PVP geared, I have everything else. Except the most crucial component of a PVP ARMS warrior...a bad ass weapon.

Lately I haven’t found the time to raid so I’ve been hurting in this area. The two times I’ve been able to roll on Death’s Bite I was out rolled. Once soundly, 87 to my 6, and then I lost one so close that I don’t eve like to say the roll count, but lets just say if my dice had 3 more points to it I’d be smacking people with DB right now.

So after my arena partner and I, while getting better, were still just 5 fights over .500 we’ve decided to take a break. Not that we couldn’t get to the magical 1850, just that it would take us about 3 weeks worth of time to get there. We’re not a horrible team, we got a good strategy for just about every set up and very rarely were we getting owned, and then when we were getting owned it was usually because of a screw up. The biggest problem has been DPS on my part. Not that I wasn't hitting things, I just wasn't hitting them Hard enough. I've got decent gear, nice crits (30% battle stance) decent enchants on just about any thing that is enchantable. Just that with MS, Overpower and Execute all being influenced directly by my weapon it's hard to enter into an arena with a crafted weapon.

So what’s the plan? I’m going to switch to Prot to get in on some raid Nax. Why not DPS you might ask? Well ironically enough after all the Heroics I’ve done and all the OS, VoA and such believe it or not my Prot gear is better than my DPS gear...don’t ask me how it just is. The only thing I’ll dole money out for is a shield, other than that I have a very nice set up going. Well let me take a step back. I MIGHT go prot. The Might is contingent upon my desire to switch guilds. My son’s guild has offered to help me gear up. They raid pretty frequently and I’m sure they could help me out. So why not swap guildes you might ask?

I guess it’s because I like the guild I work with now, the problem is that their raid times are usually NOTHING like my schedule permits.
So I’m at a cross roads. Do I swap guilds or do I tough it out and hope that at some point I can time things just right to gear up.

That’s the question for today, or rather for the next three days. I’m posting a POLL right now that will allow you to decide for me. In the end I’m going to be having fun regardless so it matter’s only to a degree. BUT as it will drastically change the content of the site as I’ll be more focused on PVP if I switch guilds, and PVE if I decide to go Prot to get in on some more pugs.

So basically Switch Guildes = PVP posts with some raid info type stuff
Going Prot = Staying with current guild, farming raids, PUGS, etc, etc, etc.

You decide. Poll closes at the end of the week.
