You seem to imply that a lone toon attacking a boxer is either jealous or stupid...
It's like saying you shouldnt attack someone much higher level than you because the odds aren't good. but damn, if you get that little tiny chance at it and succeed to kick his arse, even partially. That feels DAMN GOOD.

People like to have fun. They like to feel good. They try.
killing that 70 warrior as a level 57 mage is one of my fondest memories (granted, the fight took place in water, so he couldnt move much lol)
killing a level 38 melee NPC on my level 32 rogue was priceless.
soloing Onyxia felt real good.
If i saw a boxer in my level range, i'll probably give it a go. There are so many people that have no clue of the game, who knows, i might win :-)

I find it wierd to do something like that. Im sure satisfaction is something with has same value for some people, but for me something I cant touch or use towards my advantage has no value at all. Anyway there is a diffrence between being lucky and trying to swallow a whole melon in one chomp. Thats just IMO, dont take it personally.

I'll give you the same answer as above.
They saw you, thought they'd give it a shot.
Are people wiping repeatedly in hard mode instances all terminaly stupid?

PvP =/= PvE

no guts no glory :-)

Just imagine, though, if they throw themselves against you time after time and eventually get lucky and take some/all of you down (I said you'd need to imagine this!)... when they retell the tale of how they took on a cheating multiboxer and beat them they might just skip the "wiped for an hour first" part of the story :)

It's still funny when they do it, I got my new team their first HK yesterday they are level 25 or so and the idiot dk was about 78-79 and thought he was smart trying to gank me as i was resetting SM. Unfortunately for him my pally is very geared and I tore him up in about 5 seconds lol.

You know I can't count the number of times some loan guy runs up and attacks my 80 dk and 4 level 76 shammies. I always wandered why they do it. They only end up dead. Some 80 warlock attacked me 6 times today and died everytime and never even killed one of my guys.

That being said does anyone here try staggering a PVP macro rotating earthshocks and groudning totems or do you guys just do straight DPS?

When did WoW stop being a PvP game?

Did the "WAR" in "Warcraft" change meanings?

;)

Meh...tbh even on pvp servers I don't know that World of Warcraft has ever been much of a war. I think it's more like World of Skrimishcraft.

Nah if anything its world of gank you while your afk or fighting many mobs lol.

more like world of dailycraft honestly.
And these days it's even more World or Travel-to-bloody-4-ends-of-the-world-again-craft.

I like DKs that think deathgripping my druid away from my team is somehow going to save them from being deathgripped / chains of ice by my DK to only get their face melted.

Gank you while you are fighting mobs best describes it or ... let me gank you because i am 30 levels higher than you.

well at least you defended yourself well.

can you imaging the bragging rights the warlock would have had if he had been able to kill just one of your team.
