The Fearful Arch-Nemesis

I missed the Golden Globes yesterday (which is a shame as I am a total film and tv buff) because I discovered the obsession that is pet battling. I had only dallied in it before and my highest pets were only around level 8. I did the leapfrog method of leveling where I used my level 8 pets to capture level 10 pets, then replaced my whole team with the level 10 pets to capture level 12 pets, and so on and so forth until I got up to about level 16. The dreaded level 16 where wild pets start bringing their friends. I battled all the Kalimdor and Eastern Kingdoms battle masters and got the achievements for doing so and then I frolicked through the Dark Portal into Outland where I met her. My dark arch-nemesis.

DUD DUN DUN. Oh yes. This evil little thing kicked my ass five times. GTFO with all your crazy hard mechanical pets. (I actually love mechanical pets, I have a rare Robo-cub I adore.) And of course, two of my team were magical so they got their butts handed to them. I finally admitted defeat and flew off, cursing into the sunset, to go tame other high level pets in the area. Still, each time I tried her, I'd get to where each of us were on our last pet and we each would have a sliver of health left. I'd kill her pet and them BAM! back to life where my last pet would finally give up the ghost and not, you know, magically come back to life.

So, whole team of mechanicals. DO NOT LIKE. Also, whole team of dragons. DO NOT LIKE.

I still have not gone back to try to beat her, though I think with team I have now I could. I went on to Northrend and started taming pets there. Maybe I'll go back and trounce her with a team full of 25s. Just ignore my evil laughter.
