WoW: We played WoW because, well, I don’t want to talk about it

Our visit to Underbog went swell until we ran into Hungarfen, the first boss. Actually, it went better than swell - we did great. But, then there was Hungarfen, our only death of the night. Those Underbog boys are hard for a small group. They put out a lot of damage. Hungarfen has a  360 ever 2 second dot that can stack up to 5 times -  that’s 1800 damage per 2 sec. I couldn’t heal fast enough for that. We finished the evening in the Slave Pens, nothing new to report there.

We’d planned to play AoC. Monday is patch day and there was a large patch that was going to take me a long time to download. I pulled the plug and we switched to WoW. Mike made fun of my 1/2 meg bandwidth. He says he has 16 meg. I think it’s rude to flaunt it.

I’m this close to quitting AoC so we can continue our slow march to 70 in WoW. The thing is, AoC isn’t that easy to give up on. It’s a great game with a lot of good ideas. Playing AoC was just a lark, I never expected we’d stay, but it’s better than than most. I’m not quite ready to give it up.
