Some people - Crazy or Stupid!!!!!

Last night while levelling with my 5 man team (Prot Pala 70, 4x Elem sham 68) I was finishing up a few quests in Nagrand. Went to do 'The Ultimate Bloodsport' to kill Tusker when I notice a horde shaman 66 and druid 68, but think to myself there is 5 of me and only 2 of them I am higher level surely they will not be stupid enough to even try!!!! How wrong was I?! I drop my totem farm and get ready to pull Tusker when I notice the druid stealth, figure what the hell and pulled Tusker anyway. Yep you guessed it they attacked as soon as I had agroed Tusker.

I just switched targets for DPS and kept tanking macro going, they did get one of my shamans down (pressed wrong button and healed wrong shaman!!!! Stupid mistake). After about 15 seconds we have 2 dead horde, and quest complete.

Why did they even try???? Yes they got one guy down but that was luck. So I went on my way but the relised I had not picked up the quest item on one of my toons so went back and killed the shaman again.

Do you often come across people like that? It is the first time I have had any horde attack me unless they were lvl 80 who would just nuke my group in 2 sec.

i had one single rogue trying to kill me several times he was about 76 and i was 72 and i probobly tryed 5-6 times and failed utterly against my 4 shaman team

Suicide by boxer is the in thing right now.

Something similar happend to me last night. I was just on the way towards undercity. 80 DK and 49 Shaman x3. That mage was mounted on the gate to undercity and seemed like he was afk.
I targeted him and he just ran towards me, dismounted and casted something (prepare for fight). As he was 64 and could see my group, why the hell did he even think he could kill me?
One lonely Mage at 64 against a fully geared 80ish DK?
My server is a pve-server. That dude was just pvp-flagged and way too low for me.

You might question why people try and have a go when you dont think they stand a chance....but wouldnt it be a boring game if they didnt bother? :P

Yeah adds a bit of fun to it all, especially the long journey to 80.

I usually scare enemy players away by simpling ignoring them. Just simply walk past them or start killing quest mobs next to them.. and watch them run, hide in corners, etc.

I might be playing WoW now for too long. These thoughts are still there since I can remember the time when killing lowbies was giving you dishonor.
So usualy I ignore lower levels. Just to be honest, would you attack someone when you can't see his level (skull) and has 3 adds?

Killing lowbies was never giving dishonor, killing civilian npc's gave dishonor.

I'm on a PvE server, you would be surpised how many tag themselves in front of a team of 5 and jump up and down.
I have to admit, the first time I fried one of these guys... I laughed so hard I had tears in my eyes.

The other thing they do, is have a hunter drops snakes when your warlock pets is attacking something.
the pet AoE tags you PvP when it kills a snake. They would wait until I had pulled something to attack.
I was playing 5x warlocks and killing elites several levels above me ( so I needed most of my attention ) and I usually could kill the elites and all of the team that had attacked me.
They did this several times before giving up... lots of fun for me :D
