    Hello I came from a particular old school game where if you aoe'd you get kicked. Coming in to this game expecting to aoe and then a vote to be dismissed commences is pretty rude. With that said if you are unsatisfied with my dps'ing just make a sumple comment eg: When playing RDM just say scatter? or w/e and that's enough for me to go d'oh of course. Just don't insta kick.

    mmmh well maybe we should ask the devs to make barriers everywhere and u will only be able to pull 3 mobs at once ^^

    that should sort out the questions to aoe or not XD

    Do this and you'll need a whole lot more than Clusters to convince people to queue. I wouldn't touch roulettes again if forced to do baby pulls. Or rather, I would exclusively do pre-mades with three DPS and one tank/healer. You certainly wouldn't need both. The devs know this would happen, thus why they've only ever done partial gates and never locked out healer DPS.

    AoEing is not difficult. As shown numerous times already, it's easier than your standard single target rotation. Some people are simply too lazy to be bothered doing beyond the bare minimum.

    Most people have already stated in this thread that they would make a comment about why a DPS is refusing to AOE if they were to broach the subject--not just kick them without a word. The frequency of kicks that occur with very little prior communication are very far and few between (this is not to say they don't happen, but they are definitely rare).

    I am with Bourne_Endeavor with this one. Dungeons in this game are already extremely easy and boring. Why make them easier and more boring? I would be far more less inclined to enter roulettes or dungeon content if they purposely put up a bunch of arbitrary barriers after each. and. every. pack. of. trash. At least when tanks pull large groups, it gives one something to do other than the same ol' single-target rotation. I love BRD, but Heavy Shot spamming can get a little dull. Weaving in Quick Nock/Rain of Death with my oGCDs? I much prefer that. It feels amazing to just make things melt.
