Warsong Gulch: What you can do to suck less!

This is post number two for Bishie's Adventure Log.  This time boys and girls, we're going to talk about my favorite battle ground.  Warsong Gulch, and what you can do to suck less when you're playing!

First and foremost.  It is important that you always try to stick with the group.  The more people you have with you, the better chance you have at staying alive.  A healer or two is not needed, but is highly recommended.

Are you playing with a Pick Up Group (PUG)?  Then there are a few things you should know.

If they're farming mid field, then that gives you plenty of distraction to get the flag.  If you can manage to get the flag to where everyone is fighting...  The people fighting mid field turn into your back up!

Don't let them get to you!  If you can't get the flag, or are getting overwhelmed on defense because everyone is too busy farming kills mid field, then just find a way to have fun while you lose!  Go join the kill farming, or just have fun talking trash.  A quick loss is better than a painfully slow one.

When the game starts, try to remind everyone of basic objectives....  Say things like:

• Who's going to stay on D?
• Remember to protect the flag carriers!
• Zerg the base!
• Stick together!
• Stay in a group!

These are really obvious things....  You'd be surprised how much of a difference it makes though.  I've practiced saying it in every WSG I joined.  We won more when I said it, as opposed to when I said nothing.

Last but not least....  Prioritize your targets!  This goes for healers and DPS fools alike!
If you see a flag carrier...  Attack the flag carrier.  DO NOT chase down a rogue that's half way dead, just to get the kill.  You get more honor from a flag cap than you do from one kill.
If you see a healer healing the flag carrier...  Then kill the healer!  Then kill the flag carrier!
It's not hard really.....
Oh!  And before I forget....  Slow the flag carrier down!  At all costs!  The slower he goes, the more people can catch up to him.  The more people that catch up to him, the better chance you have of killing him.  So!  Slow them down by any means necessary.  Use snaring spells as opposed to high damage ones.  THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT OF ALL!!!  SLOW THEM DOWN!!!

And for you healers......  If you see the flag carrier...  Heal him!

That's all I can think of for now...
I leave you with this:
