Ok, 3rd time today that i join a Garuda working on my Nexus and at 1 person joins and goes AFK. Are we back to the old Castrum Meridianum times when ppl went afk while the rest do the job for them?. I know it isn't SQEX fault or anything, but it just surprises me how a 3 min fight doubles it duration due to 1 or 2 ppl "Nexus Farming".
Has anyone here also experienced this?

Yes. And I'm thankful for being a part of many premade marathons.

Unless you wanna wait 5 minutes, I guess all you can do is report them. :s

Happened to me 3 time in a row a few days ago. They're always back to make sure they lot on whatever weapon drops though.

Haven't experienced this but I have had a lot of people immediately pulling before I can even get protect off, its quite annoying. Wonder why theres restrictions on kicking people while in combat basically invites people to do this :/

Had a fully decked out WHM just sit there casting Medica II every 15 seconds, and Cure II on me non-stop in between while doing Ifrit HM. Finally stopped trying to keep aggro, and me and the OT put on sword oath and let the WHM tank it. The pattern didn't change of the non-stop cure until MP ran out, I resumed MT. They tried it again, died, and only then did they finally stop.
Several DPS noticed as well as the other healer. Wasn't too happy of a crowd. -

I wish a bish would in my party I would hold the entire party until 5 mins has passed if they haven't returned boot the hell out of them

10-03-2014, 08:21 PMMuzettaI've only seen this once, but it was pretty annoying nonetheless. I imagine it was a case of "barrier around party disappears, tank runs in straight away for the pull"?Quote:

Then, while Garuda rampages around, someone says, "hate, plz!" -

On the opposite side, there is the dps/tank guy that the millisecond after duty starts, will casts protect while me(WHM) busy on stoneskins. They know healing classes as the guys blaming me for not cast protect in Frontline.

Its for Light farming, you go fast, run in hit it str8 away, You can also wait to cast protect until everyone is in the center killing the satin plume, if you are good healer I mean

10-04-2014, 12:48 AMAshkendorYou actually get to satin plume in your Garuda light farming? I haven't seen that yet. o.OQuote:
