A Grave State Of Affairs

I completely agree with the OP and you dante, I have run CM many times and AK many times, if u cant find a premade and just use DF i never ever ask people to do a speed run and will go at their speed.

For the benefit of their futures runs i explain all the tactics and boss strats. While i can blame the developer for putting together a stupid treadmill linked to a story mandatory instance, thats no excuse for the absolute disgusting behaviour of some of the people i have seen.

Due to the fact they are behind a screen they think they can belittle and abuse people, its frigging disgusting. But i believe in karma, am sure those ass holes will get what they deserve.

It is sad that there's always some immature person that has to resort to cussing, insulting and namecalling to get their points through.
No matter how invalid they are.

It is very sad that these kinds of people have the bggest breathing holes in this community.

If worse comes to worse, there is an easy solution: Run as a healer.

Surely they won't be so demanding on one of the only guys they'll have keeping them alive. Probably less so, since they seem to be so time focused and can't afford to have to wait in the queue for another one.

While I have not actually come in direct contact with these types of people, I can fully understand and feel the many threads that details their experience. I feel sad and angry about all this. I have told myself that when I hit level 50 and manage to gear myself decently (while trudging through all the hate going on) I will form an FC that aims to provide players an environment where he/she can learn and have fun at the same time. Anyways players deemed to be toxic, will not be allowed in or will be removed if evidence shows him/her to be a toxic player.

It is really sad to see how immature and angry so many people are in this community. I hope at least one person in each server creates a friendly FC to help out the new ones and the nice ones.

Dudebros like Furio are a little short in the Self-Awareness and Empathy departments. Seems they always think they're at the center of the universe.

I've come across some of these cretins who seem to have an IV with energy drink and vodka in it. These people really need to learn how to act in a community, virtual or otherwise.

People who want to experience the story, get an idea of how it is, people who might be completely new to MMO's or RPG's in general and can't be expected to have encyclopedic knowledge of everything they need to do, or where to go to get reliable information.

To be fair, even people who are new to MMO, should have some google skills. It's not like the information is hidden in a corner on the internet.

And when you start getting into endgame, you should do some research. And while I don't think CM and AK is "the" endgame, they should have gotten a wake up call on AK at least that they need to gear up for the next content.

And nothing sucks more then queuing up for HM Primal, only to notice that a lot of them don't have the gear for it. Those people just waste your 30min-2 hours of DF queuing. And I would consider that rude. This is not a single player game where you only have to think of yourself.

These AK gear requirement posts make me chuckle a bit, do people really think that you need Darklight or a Primal weapon to clear it?

I understand where your coming from but that was a developer fault which has been recognised and will be fixed, if you don't set the expectations of the users how will they know that they are ready or not?

the only thing the game tells the user is a requirement for any instance at lvl50 is that you need a level 50 char. I'll be honest with you i like reading up before and knowing what i will encouther etc but not everyone likes that some people like to try and learn by playing.

Even reading and watching videos will never beat actual experience.

You can upgrade a lot by just going to the AH. And those gear are not even expensive.

Apparently, they do. Since, you know, Amdapor is very very very difficult, probably as hard as Coil of Bahamut. I mean, who cares about the fact that the stuff drop there is weaker than Darklight. Who cares about the fact that Amdapor Keep is pretty much an 'intro' to end game dungeons. It must be completed by a part full of Relic +1 and Allagan gears folks!
