I always had the gear I demanded. I never joined a party undergeared.


Like I said in my post, I always met those arbitrary standards I set. It's funny how people who can't be bothered to respect other players' time always try to flip this around as if it was the elitists who are ruining their game time.

You're free to play as you like but I don't want to and shouldn't have to group with people like you.

It's a video game man. I don't ever log on to an MMO thinking, "I hope I meet some strange nerds expectations today."
I mean, congratulations on having good gear and putting a bunch of effort into the game, but some people just don't care as much. Is an additional 10 STR and 20 Attack really going to make such a difference that without it the guy will be useless? No.

I'd much rather play with someone who is undergeared and cool than some douchy neckbeard who insists I go farm for four hours so I can have "optimal" gear to play the game in the optimal way.
