Endgame Progression, Elitism and You

Garuda really doesn't require more than AF unless you're the main tank.

Darklight is so not needed for AK.

True story, excluding Titan and the coil, nothing in this game REQUIRES more than AF.

To the OP: You're not being elitist, you're just mediocre players that can't compete without the best gear. Don't take that as an insult though, you shouldn't be ashamed of your mediocrity.
When we beat Garuda Hard (over 2 weeks ago), it was my first time ever playing BRD, and I didn't know what Amdapor keep was....I was in AF with a Garuda Bow and it was STILL easy. Step your game up. (I normally wouldn't speak that way, but YOU started the elitist talk)

I am to an elitist. I dont want to carry you.

It's, "I too am an elitist."

Maybe he was was saying that he exists only in the presence of Elitists.

You have to be joking. You're comparing a fresh 50 to your legacy character running Garuda for the "first time" when you already have the ilvl 70 weapon she drops? You think that makes you better than a "mediocre player"? I'm guessing you were running with your FC also? Did they also handicap themselves? Maybe run AF with a relic weapon? Maybe a scholar in full darklight but only a lieutenants weapon?

You're even worse than him, considering you're lording your skill over him when you were heavily leaning on your gear and just didn't realize it. Let's see you queue up in the Duty Finder with AF and a Flame Seargent's Bow and see how well you fare then.

I love how you're acting pro about killing Garuda Hardmode "over 2 weeks ago" on a legacy character also. Seriously. This is such a ridiculous post. I'm hoping it was a typo, for your sake.

Im sorry... you win... Garuda is hard....

Garuda isn't hard. But you aren't half as good as you think you are.

Here is the difference between the OP and you. The OP never claimed to be more skilled than anyone else. You on the other hand seem to pretend that you are despite your gear and your FC carrying you just as hard.

You couldn't be more wrong... my point was if I can do it, anyone can

FTFY

I'll agree with that. I'd still be willing to bet the rest of your FC group was also pulling more than their weight as well.

When I read 'killed Garuda first time with Garuda Bow and AF'...../facepalm.

And so the tanks have to work harder than everyone else while the DPS fails to kill the feathers.

Actually, no, they just have to be smart and attack them. She is still correct. regardless of if you accept it or not, DPS don't need more then AF. For either HM primals. Maybe if you are under skilled and you feel you need the best possible gear to make up for your lack of. then i can see why you would need more then AF i guess.
