PvP is a great rush!

I'm too low to really get into much PvP... However, yesterday I was on my way back to Crossroads to finish a quest, and running along the path, I saw a L?? Human Mage! There were a couple of L20+ Horde chasing him, but I was closer to him than they were, so I joined the chase.

I shot off Concussion Shot (slows movement) a couple times and they were deflected. Finally, one of them landed, and I caught up and hit him with a Wing Clip. He was stuck, and then the others who had been chasing him caught up and made quick meat out of him.

What a rush! Share yours ...

Well, I havent had any on retail yet, but in beta I had a great rush with the constant raids on xroads.

My first official kill would be when I first arrived there and I heard people in local defense saying there was a large amount heading up from gold road. Well me being the rogue that i was, went up to the highest hill near the road south of xroads, and stealthed waiting for the raid to arrive.

when I finaly saw the block of alliance heading up the road, I moved down to the bottom of the hill, and waited for the group to try and take on the gaurds of xroads and a few players(the alliance were all around level 20 btw, and the gaurds were 40, so think of it as a rather hard kill).

When they started to get involved heavily with everything beating on them, I chose to sneak up behind and take out the first lil pesky mage I could see =). Well, by the time I finished with the mage, most of the raid had dispersed to death or fleeing and there were only a few more straglers around the area which we all chose to hunt down.

In Crossroads, we get a report of 3 Dwarfs, lvl 20-22, hanging out in the tower just north of crossroads. Makurar (guildmate) and I go check it out.

We run up to the top of the tower. Way too crowded, can't get a bead on the dwarves. I die.

Do corpse run back. The dwarves have been killed.

So we wait to see if they're coming back. Sure enough, there's a lvl 20 dwarf rogue (I think I was 16 or 17 at the time).

So I send my loyal and faithful pet Kohana after him, then start to unload upon him.

He got very annoyed with me at that point. So he charges up to me and starts trying to sneak around behind me. So I kept moving and hitting him.

He was so busy trying to sneak behind me, he didn't notice Makurar sneak up behind him.

Dead dwarf.

I loved being able to stand on the ground and shoot the dwarfs at the top of the tower. Takes some moving around to get into the right position, but it's fun.

My first experience with it in retail was at Ratchet. Now, I was not aware that the little bugger gobbie guards did not take kindly to PVP in their fine (ahem) little town...

There were a handful of night elf scum in town working those they could entice into a fight (PVE server). I noticed several bodies by the far north end of town by the little shack. I ran over and circled around behind the shack and sure enough there was a level 23 female druid there who did not see me.

Now, I am a level 20 hunter, pretty well equipped with a pet that is also level 20. A raptor named Prickle. (Yes as in Gumby's friend prickle).

I attacked her from behind by sending my pet in and blasting her with my rifle. She was doomed. She tried to react, ran away into the hills with my pet and my bullets dropping her health bar pretty quickly.

Now, I was loosing health too but I have to say I was so intent on killing her that I did not pay attention to what was doing it. It actually crossed my mind that it could be one of her friends...as it turns out it was one of the little gobbies and just as my prey fell I then died as well at the hands of a ratchet bruiser.

So I came back and got my body, and ran down the path into town and before my health was back or before I could revive my pet, I was getting pounded by a night elf hunter. I fell like a pile of laundry, albeit, laundry that smells like cow.

I came back, and ran to a remote corner and gathered health and my pet and ran back out just in time to join a group of cows chasing a night elf druid down the path.

All in all, it was a lot of fun.

Mine was in Ashenvale. I had been killed a couple of times so I knew to be on the lookout.

I am a rogue so I exited town to the south in stealth, keeping a careful eye out. I got a little way out of town when I saw out of the corner of my eye red lettering. My heart races a bit as I approached what appeared to be a tauren.

I was level 20 and he was level 19 so I thought I could take him. I crept up close and unleashed all my rogue goodness on the poor soul.

He took off running but I caught him with sprint and stunned him. Then finished him off.

What excitement. This game is amazing.

I'll just share my Beta story since I haven't gotten the retail (for EU) yet and want to feel like I still have something to say here. ;P

I was doing some quests in westfall with my guild, 3 ppl there including me at the time, and I was off by myself when I saw three undead strolling by the road. I was PvP tagged so I held my distance as I told my friends, that was in the same room as me, that there were 2 rogues and 1 war undead that was about to gank me.
Naturally I lead them to my war and paladin friend, they never knew what hit them. Once my friends had engaged I went in and backstabbed the highest lvl rogue, unleashed some sinisters and he activated sprint. I quickly used Slice'n'Dice and followed him with sprint, he died hard. :P
The war and the other rogue was being raped by my friends and I joined in with a backstab and some other nasty DPS skills.
We barely got wounded, some ppl just can't PvP properly. We could be outnumbered 3-1 and win most of the times, some ppl sucked so bad it was sad ;_;

This was at about lvl 12-17 something, can't remember really :P

In OB my most recent kill I don't remember Stress Test PvPing we had a mini raid of horde rush over to Ashenvale. At the time I was 13 questing and the funny thing was all of a sudden in general i see a guy yells out "HORDE IN ASTRANAAR POST." I was in that zone at the time, a few minutes later I then spotted a 21 tauren hunter and a 19 troll rogue. I was frightened so I immediately stealthed and stood behind a tree. I watched as 2 NEs died from them and I was in disgust with myself for being a coward lol. I then saw a 15 tauren shaman walk by and he started attacking a druid. I immediately went behind him and Ambushed his *** after a few good hits he was down after that. The 13 then bowed to me and I felt great.

Mine was in Stonetalon I had just finished killing a Mob and got Jumped from behind by a lvl 23 Night elf Rouge (I was lvl 20 Hunter) I run back and get my pet back and put up track Human on.
Wouldn't you know he was just on the other side of the of a hill.
I run up and look at him and see he is at Halve health about what i was when he attacked so i sent in my pet after putting down a freezing trap and shot away he fell pretty quickly and seemed a little ticked off was great fun haveing my first kill be payback for the same thing that he did to me.

Not really my first pvp kill per say but my first pvp encounter. I was wandering on the road going south of Aberdeen in Darkwoods when all of a sudden I see someone yell, "HORDE SCUM!" I look around and see 2 undead shamans and a Tauren warrior. The shamans were 16 and the warrior was 22. I quickly tried casting my rank 2 Pain on the shamans and then went into full priest mode. I couldn't tell who was all around but I quickly casted Fortitude and Renew on the Elf engaged with the Tauren. The 2 shamen went down fast, but the tauren started beating feet with the Elf and myself still after him. He finally stopped and engaged the Elf again when I casted my rank 3 lesser heal on the heal. That pretty much sealed the deal and plop went the tauren. Funny part is, I went back to the bodies of the 2 shaman and one ressurected. Just as he did another Elf engaged and I casted.. uhh. starshred? Forgot the name, on him and down he went again. I got caught up in the excitement and started my unknown journey south again with about 3 others when we ran up to a lvl ??? Tauren Druid. Well, needless to say, he noticed my healing ways and I was the first one slaughtered. Overall, I'm loving that aspect of the game. Keeps you on your toes and shows some real competition for land.

My first time- Was in Zoram Strand with 2 rogues and a Warrior. Saw 2 orc warriors and a Tauren Shaman. We shadow melded before the orcs and tauren could see us. One of the orcs ran off while the other one was helping the shaman kill things. Out of no where one of our rogues decides it would be fun to kill the warrior. I see the shaman start to run over to them, so I cast Entangling roots, and wrath him over and over, allowing the rogue to backstab for over kill.

Well I been doin PvP on Astranaar the last couple days. I gotta say one thing. ROGUE ARE FUN FOR THIS. Hunters do not stand a chance when I am up close. My friend and his bro play and the bro is on alliance so he was runnin to kill my friend(Joe)and I was invised and I saw that so I snuck up behind him and before he could get across the pond I killed him. Ah god that was fun! And this other time i snuck up on him and almost killed him but he got into town.

Ashenvale seems to be a hotspot whenever i visit there

One time as i was stopped on the pathway south of astranaar a mage started to unload on me as i was reading a quest log or something. He had 1 lvl on me at the time, (iirc i was 18) i closed the gap with sprint then started to SS him whilst using kick to interupt his spells. Last resort he got off a freeze and i was stuck to the spot before i could gouge him. While he was casting i threw 2 daggers at him, he had prob 50 hp left at that point then once freeze wore i closed the gap again and Evicerated him to death whilst still being at 75% health. Ah was a rush while it was happening and that mage soon learned that even when you start a battle with a rogue you dont stand much chance ;)

My other favourite runs ins involve shamans turning chicken and going ghost wolf then dieing to a dagger in the back. Good times
