Mercreus and I ventured into the arena, not quite sure what to expect. And what we found were a bunch of teams who made clever use of the terrain. Priests who stayed out of line of sight. Night elf hunters who stealthed until you got close and then unleashed on a poor squishy mage. Other pairs of hunters teaming up on the same poor squishy mage. Just a bunch of clever mechanics, no one willing to fight one on one (or two on two as it is in 2v2).

Earlier today, Mercreus and I decided to fight a new battle - the Arenas. We have teamed up as a 2v2 squadron and are known as Mushrooms of Doom. We practiced with a few skirmishes and didn't fare so well. It's pretty tough fighting against two other players as a mage and hunter. Both of us are ranged attackers, so once someone is able to close the gap, it's all over. Add to that the presence of healing on the other teams and we are usually outmatched. I'm fragile and without healing, die quickly, leaving poor Mercreus all alone (the other team usually targets me first). Hopefully we will be able to improve our strategy and put up a good fight. I certainly know that the vendors will not equip me with the best gear unless I can prove myself.

Today should be an interesting day for me. Last night, my comrades and I were finally able to defeat the malevolent Prince Malchezaar living above the tower in Karazhan. After defeating him and further earning the respect of the Dalaran archmages, we proceeded on towards Terestian Illhoof. But before then, Harkor requested I utilize my pony keg and I proceeded to get a little drunk.
