Somethings you just never grow out of...

So, i haven't been posting much due to the fact that Theo, Nindo, and myself have rerolled onto a horde server. After loosing a couple of people, and being upset with what was left of our setup on Alliance (2dps, one hybrid, and a ret paladin), we decided everyone would be better off if we just started over on a new server from scratch, with people on appropriate toons.

So, the three of us took a spot on the Holy-Triad:

Tank: (Myself, undead female warrior)
Heals: (Nindo, male bloodelf paladin)
CC: (Theo, undead female mage)

We picked up my step brother, Noven, to pick up my abandoned spot as MA, main DPS on a male orc Shaman (windfury ftw) and we switched our part-timer and iffy paladin Threven to warlock, on DPaSsist duty, and he is doing alot better in that role.

The groupset up is great, we have been blowing through instances, and are currently pushing mid 30s at the start of our second week. Group PvP is going to be much better, and we are set alot better for 5man raiding.

The only problem, i went from one of the best soloing classes, in PvE and PvP, to one of the sub-average. I cannot grind like i could on the hunter, i went from a kiting jumpshotting little dwarf annoyance to the exact opposite role, I chase people. I hate being kited, i hate being snared and rooted, i dont like the way melee mechanics and spell interupts work in this game compared to DAoC.

I can't solo.. Its going to get better i assume, and we are going to tear up in arena, but i miss my hunter already.

As of now he is demoted to a Arena once a week, solo BG on honor weekends, and world PvP bot. I just wish i could have gotten keyed for a heroic and earned my 2 primal nethers to finish off my 2 big engineering items, the helm and gun. I hate raiding, but i did want to do that.

If i could get the nethers, that would finish all the gear i would ever need from PvE, and i can keep to my plans of just PvPing to earn the rest of his gear.

I need to PuG some 5man rep runs, but my alliance server sucks.. (Another reason we started on a new one) Maybe i should transfer to a high pop server to PuG some instances..

Any suggestions?
