O.O

Wanting those likes? True I get upset with poor player choices, but admittedly I'm a terrible tank sometimes because I forget shield oath.

People who follow me to out of the way coffers. It's like, you see me going there right? I'm five steps ahead of you, what do you expect to do when we get there?

This can also apply to boss mechanics like meteors in Cloud of Darkness.

Or if you're already on an object (door, item etc) and they decide to start doing it too.

How about those tanks/DD who are on top of the mob as it drops a key that needs to be picked up and they just run off ignoring it >_> Come on, it was RIGHT in front of you lol

[Adire]

People in ST who stack in yellow orbs and leave empty ones, people in WoD who do the same with comets.

It's like, why cause yourself to take unnecessary damage AND sit there while there's an empty one?

Even if there are no empty ones, you aren't doing anyone a favor by getting yourself hit when you don't have to. 1 person per orb/meteor isn't a hard concept to grasp.

• DPS who waste Limit break on mobs.

• Healers who try to DPS

For the first one, sometimes it's more time-saving to do that rather than save it for a boss, especially if it's a caster dps LB hitting a really large amount of enemies.

And the second point, no need to neglect the damage-dealing moves that healers have, if people aren't in danger of dying then extra dps is better than nothing.

[AskaRay]

• G.I.R.Ls who want people to know they're girls in irrelevant conversations

• People who copy & paste translate and pretend they're Japanese.

... i'm kidding.
I didn't copy-paste that; you can tell by my terrible grammar I need to practice more often.

Some of this can be discrepancy in clients. My wife on my screen will be about 20 feet behind me, and on her screen I'm like 20 feet behind her.

Since we run almost everything together, we notice this a lot. Also happens watching people dodging aoes, will look like she barely made it out of something but on her screen she was groovy.

First time I'm glad to be on the EU center... lol


Also, in theme of the thread:

Getting forced into a 3-man or 7-man full of people that only have one language selected, and it's the language group I DON'T want to party with. Because, IN MY EXPERIENCES WITH THAT GROUP, most of them can't do their jobs. Which leads to much amusement for my FC when I get put in these groups while solo queing...

Its not like you cant still play. They just said u might get disconnected or be unable to log in randomly.

Also, what grinds on me...

-Tanks pulling large groups of monsters with only melee DPS w/ minimal aoe capability
-Tanks doing the exact same pull a second time with melee DPS w/ minimal aoe capability...
-Tanks popping Hallowed Ground right after I just popped Presence of mind & Divine Seal (thereby wasting my abilities)
