What it is? That is how my good friend and ex-coworker Marvin would have said it. He had a very colorful way of saying boring, everyday things. Let me tell you what makes a good gank according to what I did this morning.
I was doing a quick loop in Badlands on my mount to get some more ore to hit 165 mining skill. After I made the mistake of venturing in to a terribly dangerous gorge in the Northeast with whelps and dragons, I came across a foot-bound hunter who seemed to be doing just fine by herself and her cat.
Fine, until I came along. I come from a long line of ganked players. Had I never been ganked, I would have just kept riding to my next ore deposit. But, no, I’ve been blindsided after landing at a flight point, ganked as I log in, camped, and just like this one, grinding away to get a level or finish a quest. Now I kill first and ask questions later. I am not rude unless attacked by a higher-level player first, then they get a /spit when I lay their butt down for good.
What I did in this case, was wait until she finished killing a mob, and started on another. Her mana was a little lower than the picture when I hit her with Shadow Word: Pain Vampiric Embrace. She didn’t seem to realize that anything was happening to her. After she finished off the mob, she sicced her pet on me, but it didn’t matter, because I just bubbled, hit her with Pain againย and Mind Blasted her. It took about 10 more seconds, but the end was inevitable as she fell victim to my DoTs.
