I can understand rolling your eyes at the schizos who don't actually care about the game and just want to show off how big their e-peen is by getting 99 parses on the newest raid tier, because I do too, its just vapid dong-waving. The problem is posts like this get used as an excuse to be terrible at the game, and I know it is because up until around June it was literally the same excuse I was using, and its the same garbage excuse my IRL friends use when I tell them to stop being lazy.

"I just wanna play casually" is just another way of saying "I want to put in absolutely no effort and everyone else can suck it" Its an incredibly selfish and toxic attitude that people were supposed to get out of back in public school. Its the one lazy kid who you get stuck doing a group project with and he does nothing and you all fail because one guy is just a lazy A-hole

When I get stuck in Sastasha in duty roulette and I ask the tank to not single pull the entire dungeon and his response is "Sorry I'm not a hardcore player" I'm forced to waste the next ten minutes with this idiot or else I get nailed with a penalty.

Just this morning I had some buffoon in Praetorium playing as DRG he didn't use Disembowel or his Jumps at all the entire run (And this guy was Level 72) He is objectively playing wrong, he might as well have just logged out because he literally contributed nothing to our party and made the run take like and extra 5 minutes.

The game needs some kind of button you can toggle when signing up for a duty that says "I am a lazy bum" and by toggling it you only ever get paired with the uber casuals who just wanna spam Cure 1 in Holmiester switch.

I heard myths about a feature that allows you to go into content with a pre-made group of like minded people to completely avoid the chance to get matched with people that do not share the same mindset as yourself.

You don't get Roulette bonuses from premade, so no.

You don't get Roulette bonuses from premade, so no.

Then deal with who you get or don't participate. Simple as that.

Stop encouraging people to never improve. You're an enabler of toxic behaviour.

Yeah you're truly out of touch. You contradicted yourself twice. Why would you even try to correlate wanting to get a top parse and "being lazy" with your goofy anecdote. Some people genuinely could care less about a parse and by your logic they are being lazy and shouldn't play the game. If you can't bear with a casual player in a freaking duty roulette then take your pseudo-elitist attitude and queue up with your "friends" ez fix. This game shouldn't have to suffer subscription numbers because you want everyone to git gud. Join a static and be elite all you want and lets see how long you last

Sure, but the opposite is also true where many players appear to assume advice = opinion.

For example, they receive constructive criticism that can be backed up with math, logic and reliable sources but don't even listen in the first place because "that's just their opinion and I prefer mine", and continue on their way playing Ice Mage, single pulling mobs or spamming Cure I all dungeon.

So, just to be clear here, the opinion in your scenario is not the math that may certainly say certain playstyles are not as efficient. The opinion is that, therefore, those playstyles should not be used even on content that would still be clearable with those playstyles.

On the other hand, it doesn't really matter if an advice comes with an opinion. If you genuinely think it's good advice, then you should give it unless you're corrected in that it's not a good advice after all. But the other person can still choose not to take the advice regardless.

But the other person can still choose not to take the advice regardless.

And if they do so they're being the toxic ones, wasting other people's time.
