    If you have a group that spends 6 hours dieing to a boss that you have no reason why then youve basically spent a work day accomplishing nothing but frustration.

    You're absolutely right. That's why people who form "statics" and actually set schedules for video games confuse me greatly. Perhaps people like to pretend it's a job and choose not to enjoy the game. Not sure.

    Im going to assume youve atleast done the extremes at a bare minimum or I have no idea why you are even in this thread arguing one way or the other.

    So operating under that assumption if you join a Titania group and you keep hitting enrage, she keeps 1 shotting everyone and you keep repulling. What is your metric for this situation, to shower your group with kind words and encouragement and hope that somehow whichever person clearly doesnt know what they are doing magically finds the answer from your positivity because thats not how it works and I know you dont operate under the delusion thats how that works. So how do you handle that? Do you just ASSUME all the players but you are bad because you have no metric to prove it one way or the other.

    Im not saying you use the meter to call anyone out but atleast if you know its not you you can drop and rejoin another group. But lets say it is you or some other newer player. The game gives you all of 0 information that you are playing badly, but it still lets you in the highest end content, in order to smear your face on the floor over, and over and over again. You dont think that would upset people? this has nothing to do with statics just joining regular parties. Or should these players all just be RPing in Lominsa?

    the available 4 man content is not a good endgame to an mmo least of all this one given we were wall pulling on day 1.

    Or perhaps different people find different things fun.

    A shocking concept, I know.
