<em>This Breakfast Topic has been brought to you by <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2010/02/03/the-new-wow-com-guest-blogger-program/">Seed</a>, the Aol guest writer program that brings your words to WoW.com.</em><br />
<br />
Maybe some of you will understand where I'm coming from. I play a fury warrior, my favorite class that fits my playstyle in every way. I like to think of myself as a raging berserker painted in woad and the blood of my enemies. I'm a whirlwind of doom that will fight 'til his last dying breath against insurmountable odds. <br />
<br />
But here is the problem that I'm facing: I'm number one in damage done and damage per second on nearly every fight. Now you may be thinking to yourself, "What's your problem? Doesn't that just mean you're doing your job?" Yes, it does -- but it also means that my raiding team isn't doing its job as well as myself. Now don't get me wrong, I've been with this team since I knew what end of the axe to even hold, and I consider all of them to be my friends. But I put in my time, got my gear, did my research and started topping the charts by an alarming amount. I thought that once I would get to this level of the game, I would have to struggle to keep my place among the elite, but that just isn't so. I don't see any of my fellow damage-dealers putting in the same effort that I'm putting in.<p><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2010/07/06/breakfast-topic-its-lonely-at-the-top/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Breakfast Topic: It's lonely at the top</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/breakfast-topics/" rel="tag">Breakfast Topics</a>, <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/category/guest-posts/" rel="tag">Guest Posts</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://wow.joystiq.com/2010/07/06/breakfast-topic-its-lonely-at-the-top/">Breakfast Topic: It's lonely at the top</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://wow.joystiq.com">WoW Insider</a> on Tue, 06 Jul 2010 08:00:00 EST.
