How do you handle raid wipes?

Depends on what kind of group I am in.

Learning : work it out
Clear/farm : 3 wipes not caused by me, ditch
Static : work it out and optimise

How to handle raid wipes:


* Press the button to spawn back in
* Joke about it on discord
* Then discuss what went wrong
* Try again.

Bahahahahahah that song is awesome

I don't do Savage here but when I raided in the past in other games we just picked it up and tried again. Yeah we had some hairy situations and sometimes heated words were said, but apologies were made after and we were good again. The blame game doesn't help anyone, but proper root cause analysis does require that the progression of events be investigated. And sometimes that might meant that X person just screwed up. So long as everyone understands they're not playing with robots, it doesn't have to get nasty.

I punch a hole in my wall

Stand up dust myself off and go at it again

I have a three strike rule for just about any content I do, of course there are exceptions. If they show no sign of making progress or keep repeating mistakes I'll leave after the third wipe.

I scream at the top of my lungs that WoW is to blame for the wipe.

I only leave if I need to because of life outside the game or if people leave and it doesn't look like the party will fill up again. Otherwise, I have no problem redoing fights over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over...again as long as the other people in the party want to.

The exception is if I'm the one causing the wipes. Then, depending on whether they're people I know or random or how I feel the other people are feeling, I may choose to leave before they kick me.

How do I handle raid wipes? Normally I wait till a heavy hitting cleave attack is incoming then flip the boss around at the last second to face the rest of the group, gets em every time!


Jokes aside I mainly just sigh and go back to it.

I'm fine with them so long as people try better the next time or ask for help if they need it. Sometimes a fight doesn't click with someone until they've been smacked around a little. I know it definitely doesn't for me, so I can't get mad at anyone for being of a similar learning style.
