So this past weekend, I was solo on my mage (Dulcet of Silver Hand), PVPing with some guildies, which I haven't done in quite a while. AV was the daily BG, off we went. We got to mid-field, and on vent someone started laughing about someone 5-boxing shammies on the horde side, which I had to see for myself. I'd never been on the receiving end of 5 lava bursts, it was quite something. My mage has pretty good raid gear, and I wear that for BGs as being a sniper actually works pretty well in an organized group, but that means she only has about 18K hp and no resilience.

It was a long AV, alliance eventually won by running the horde out of reinforcements, so we started making a game of trying to take down the 'world boss' that was the Zappys. My guildies know I 5-box, and lately I've been bringing multi-shammies to do VOA 10 or the weekly raid quest with alt teams, so they're pretty familiar with what it looks like, but it's quite something else to be on the receiving end of that action. As a mage I kept trying to figure out how to stop 5x chain heals, but there doesn't seem to be a way! We really got a kick out of it.

On Sunday afternoon we get our arena team together to get our minimum games in for points that week. Our 2nd fight is against a multiboxing team of 4 pallies and a DK named ZOMG Skippys. It was our only win that day!

It's odd, I'm so used to 5-boxing from the driver's seat, but seeing someone else do it was pretty weird. But really I don't know why people complain when they see boxers. It's pretty different trying to fight one than a team of solo-boxers, but that just made it interesting.

So Zaps if you see a raiding-geared human mage in a BG, and she's running away from you, that just might be me
