Warfront Monsters Is Now Recruiting on Ashstone Server Defiant in Rift

Okay. I know I said I was going to pvp in Warfronts until level 50. Why did I want to torture myself on a nightly basis? How hard is it to learn how to play Black Garden? I will give you the easy cliff note version for all the lazy World of Warcraft players who have decided to play Rift. It is simple. All you do is AOE the fang at the start, someone grab fang, run fang back by tree, hold fang, and win.

It sounds easy doesn't it? I think it does, but guess what I see every Warfront?

I see idiots fighting by our tree while the fang is being held by the other faction by their tree.

I see idiots fighting in the middle when the fang is being held elsewhere.

No one grabs the fang when it drops.

No one tries to kill the guy holding the fang.

No one uses AOE to prevent opposite faction players from picking up the fang.

No one sticks with the fang carrier so when he drops it, the other faction runs off with it.

This is the reason I just want to create my guild Warfront Monsters. It is simple. You do premade Warfronts, you use vent, and you understand that winning Black Garden is easy if you AOE the middle, grab the fang, run back to the tree, hold the fang, and win.

I Love The Ashstone Server In Rift

Do I really need to say anything else? This was the best thing I could have ever done by leaving Briarcliff, and rerolling to Ashstone. I love it.

Is it because I am Defiant again? I am not sure, but my Black Garden record completely changed. I think out of fifty warfronts today I went about 47-3. I swear every player knew exactly what to do in the Warfronts. How can one faction be that much smarter than another?

Does it prove that one faction attracts the twelve year olds? I don't know for sure, but I didn't have to beat my head on my keyboard all day, and actually enjoyed myself. I seem to see a pattern of terribad players on Guardian.

My Rift Queue Queue In My Pillow

My pillow currently is full of tears from my queue queue from Rift. I know I should tough it out, but other factors have also weighed in on my decision. I will no longer be playing Guardian on Briarcliff with my old Warhammer Online buddies. I have switched back to Defiant on Ashstone with no one I know.

I know originally this was my plan to roll solo. I had this crazy idea to join my old Warhammer buddies, and it just wasn't the same. I felt like an outsider, and most didn't even remember me. I have to say that part hurt the most. I guess that is what happens when I didn't follow them to World of Warcraft. I also felt like I was playing solo anyways. They were leveling up together, and doing Warfronts while I was lagging behind having to pug it.

I am not going to sugarcoat it. It was the worst twelve hours of Rift. I feel so much better on Defiant. The comfort of knowing everything from quests, to locations, to npc's makes a huge difference. Although I am questing alone I don't feel the pressure of fitting back in with my old guild buddies. I am not sure I would have either. I felt like I was also lied too. Most of the guild is staying in Warcraft, and only about fifteen made the jump to Rift. I just don't see them staying anyways, and I may as well not get hurt later.

I also feel a huge stress release from the stupid queue situation on Briarcliff. It was controlling my decisions on playing. It was to the point I wanted to take some breaks, eat, shower, or whatever, but with a six hour queue looming over my head I just kept playing. It is just plain stupid to change your life for a queue. This morning I woke up at 3am just to get in the queue so I could play this morning when I actually felt like getting up. Both times I ended up being disconnected, and seeing even longer queues. It was time to move on.

I hope to see some of you in Black Garden later today. If you see my Ranger/Marksman/Assassin her name is Plixy, and please refrain from killing me. I am still trying to recover from yesterday, and I really don't need to queue queue in my pillow over Rift tonight.
