A new expansion is coming out and raids are still Crap

[gumas]

I hate how i have to look for a group for months and not find one and when you find one they expect you to know every fight yadayada.

basically every mmorpg out there when you enter raid, dont hate the game son, hate the people.

[kidalutz]

Sorry OP your behavior indicates that YOU are the reason they kick you from groups not your playskill and dont want you as part of thiers. You smack of antagonistic, Self centered Ego,and overall Dren attitude. It's not the raids that are the issue it's your obvious need to pretend your better than everyone else and appearently getting disproved of that notion rather quickly. I certainly wouldnt even want to be in an alliance raid with someone like you've exhibited yourself to be even if you are in a completely different alliance group your behavior and attitude are absolutely atrocious.

Jager, Language! lol

The only complaint I see that you might have a point with is the 1 room 1 boss thing. But that is a subjective point, as some like it and some don't.

The part about finding no one means you need to socialize more if people on your data center are already completing them easily. I never deal with statics and easily pugged all the savage raids.

As for the mechanics you just need to git gud.

And that's why "Sekiro does not need an easy mode".

He is not talking about the toughness of the raid.

I agree with few points:

1.One room One boss.I really do not like this.It doesn't give you a feeling of raid.By saying this i don't mean "OK other games have different type of raids so FF should has the same" Raid in general gives the meaning of "Bigger Fights" in the MMORPG genre.I think 24 man raids are more satisfying because of that reason.
2.He is not wrong about the raiding community.If we make a whole population graph about the player types,raiders would have the 15% at max i suppose.It is a really small community and it is kind of understandable if they refuse to accept newcomers.We all know that if you do not have a core,long-lived static group,it is not going to work.(At least most of the time).So what raiders do?They ask for previous DPS logs etc from other players which new players do not have.As i said,it is understandable but it is also partially game's design fault.First,Raids are already hard so it is easier to make a mistake,next it is 8 players only so one mistake means wipe(Sometimes even lower DPS),it is just a small community so no one wants to waste their time for newcomers and list goes on.All of them together creates VOLTON in front of you while you are holding a stick.
Goodluck!

it was xdeath i havent played in a long time for EG after that and the fight was not memorable at all. funny how Trash SB there's no Legit Original bosses. outside 4 man's

You've never done O4S. You've only done O1S, again - a quick search determines that. Try again.

He isn't lying on that, he even has the Alte Roite mount and the achievment for completing O4S.

As I said for the first point. It is a valid complaint, but it's still subjective. You'll find some that love and some that don't.

As for the second point, I would disagree here. You can easily find pugs for all the current tier raid. As I'm writing this right now, there's a fresh practice for O9s, farming party for O10s, Panto prog for O11s and clear group for O12s (and right now is not even the time for a lot of players to be active).

I have completed all savage raids this expansion without having a static. I've pugged them all at my free time starting from fresh practice for each fight and joining the appropriate prog parties after till I reach enrage then I jump to clear ones after I optimize my DPS. And there are times where I don't find the appropriate prog level group so I make my own. Yes, sometimes it can take an hour to fill up or a couple of minutes, but that's based on what time of the day you're playing at. So I never dealt with log issues for clear runs, since they can't even discuss it in game chat. And people only bother to check your logs if it was a weekly run.

I don't know how things are done on EU servers, but here in NA, we always start by joining practice runs (AKA fresh or blind run). Then we jump to the appropriate phase prog group based on how far you reached in the practice run. When you reach enrage, that's when you start joining clear groups. And once you clear, you start joining weekly runs. And there's always parties up for different types of progs. Statics only post in Party Finder if they needed a sub for one of their members. But they also post in their party description if they're a practice, prog, clear or weekly.

I guess Lodestone is being weird sometimes. When was the complete date on his exdeath?

Either way I don't really think it matters if he completed it or not. It doesn't change the fact that his unwillingness to make his own parties is what's hurting him.

As for the lack of love for the current raid style that comes down to personal preference. I personally didn't care for Alexander's style of raids when I went back and did them, though I wouldn't mind variation every now and then, but that's just my take on it. Then again I'm not a raider and don't really care to be one at the moment. So my opinion should be taken with a grain of salt.

[Neri]

Oh nah, I am just wondering how lodestone actually work since some able to see a certain achievement, while others can't. In my case, I didn't see any achievement at 01/08/2018 at all. I only saw 01/09/2018 for "I am savage delta, I am the savage omega I".

He did clear it though, I'm sure because of the mount, but I guess Lodestone is being Lodestone?


edit: Oh wait, that musta be timezone.

Good on him, he actually did beat it. Not when it was new, but he did beat it. Agreed with your conclusion, his biggest enemy is himself.

Why single me out? I'm far from the only (or best) person to bring up that this person is his own worst enemy here lol.
