Blood for the blood god!

Had a fun evening doing some PQ's and RvR tonight in the Chaos T1, I ended up dying a hell of a lot in oRvR but it was fun for a while. I ran a couple of Khanies Embrace scenarios, and second time around I decided not to play tactically and just see how much damage I could lay down.

So, the blood lust consuming me, I hunted down all the squishy players I could find (and there was lots!). Rather to my surprise this is how I'd done in the end:



And he looked at the bleeding bodys strewn across the battlefield and was pleased.....

To be honest though, I think without Kogoma and Shoe pumping out the healing juice I never would ave lived long enough to dish out that amount of punishment. Props to you two, if I ever see you in game again you'll have my thanks 'in person' :)

Just goes to show, good healing is essential for the team, even though we did loose in the end as we left out alter totally undefended for order to sneak a capture in.

Next time..... next time.....

Welcome!

Greetings and salutations!
Welcome to Tank Wall, this is my fist attempt at one of these new fangled blog things so you'll have to excuse me if I don't seem to know what I'm doing at first but bear with me, I'll get the hang of it eventually!

So I should probably introduce myself to all you folks out there in the WAR blogosphere, I'm Athekkhar, a prodigal player returning to the fray after an absence of 6 months. I jumped ship from WoW (dont hold it against me) at the start of the open beta but decided to put off buying the game for a few months untill most of the problems such as server stability, RvR balance and zone control had been addressed and sorted by Mythic. I've still been following how the game's progressed on the great blogs that got me interested in Warhammer in the first place, namely Book of Grudges, the greenskin and Waaagh.

It was with much anticipation and excitement that I decided to download the 10 day trial, and after much struggling with GOA's frankly still broken registration pages, I finally returned in a blaze of triumphant glory to once more wreak death and destruction on the word of Warhammer!

Enter Athekkhar- my new main toon, complete with mohawk (like me :D) and 'devil eyes' (not like me). I've always enjoyed playing tanks and with them being able to, albeit debateably, hold their own in PvP I decided to go for the tough stuff. For me it had to be a Chosen 'cos they are just the coolest, most badass ones in the game IMO. Currently he's level 8 and smashing his way through scenarios and oRvR if theres any available

In the not-too-distant future posts I will be sharing my experiences on being a tank and *trying* to be fairly successful in PvP, also thoughts on how WAR has changed it the 6 months I've been gone (that's going to be a long one), gear, stats and builds as I progress and my over abundant use of parenthesis (don't worry, I'm seeking help for it).
