Level 70 Babysitters

[Harbringer Doom]

Is it me, or is there a new rash of 70s running around with their T2/T3 twinks, protecting them from being attacked in open zones while they farm named? They stay grouped until they see someone the lower levels can beat, then they drop group, kill, regroup. We need a "Real Norrathians of Genius" stanza for you, Mr. Can't Compete in PvP Unless I Have Someone 50 Levels Higher Protecting Me Guy. But, on the bright side, Tesar is happy to come one shot (maybe two shot) your twinks and then kill you wherever you are found.  And he's offering this service for free to those calling out in channel.

Pretty lame but not suprising given the trend of lameness to hit pvp servers lately.

Some people probably consider this a brilliant tactic, and smart PvP.   Hell, they probably support it as adamantly as some support level locking. I just think if you need a level 70 babysitter to constantly change your diaper in the low zones, you are weak.

lol yeah I've been seeing this a lot too, especially from noob guilds such as cannon fodder and radiant legion.  Speaking of radiant legion.... I saw a 70 from radiant legion babysitting his f'ing "bot" group in TS then in SH the other day.  I griefed them over and over again and he joined their group and they auto followed him out, but what else can you do besides have them auto follow you when you're using bots because you're a loser.  Name was saardon or something like that.  Good job Radiant legion...... looks good on your guild to have that kind of activity going on.
