Tales from Duty Finder: Some make you laugh, some make you cry. Let's vent.

Wasn't the content designed so that any role could dps?

No. The content was designed to completely remove role restrictions.

In the off chance you are genuine, I would like to ask the following: Please dont ever go near Bozja ever again if you are so convinced that the game should never change the rules of the T-H-DPS roles. After all, why do content you clearly dont like?

Now do you get why some people disagree with your take?

Obviously, I don't do content which I don't like. If it was any other way I would have stayed and heal the parties without a healer when I was dps. The tradeoff is not really worth it though. Most of the times I am healing people who couldn't be bothered to use essence so I am better off waiting for another queue. It used to take around 5-6 mins when I was doing them so it is not that big of a deal. Raids without any healers are very rare after all.

Lastly, people are free to disagree with anything I say. Why should that bother me? You have to start from there.

The very simple answer which is true in all cases when people disagree with you is because they don't think like you. That's all there is to it.

Every day I play, I sit 3hrs to 4hrs waiting to get into anything at all. It's so frustrating. It actually almost makes me want to not do it at all. lol

Great statement.

The content was designed to completely remove role restrictions yet somehow a player who wants to use dps actions instead of healing actions should stay out of the content. Awesome logical thinking.

I think the point that some are trying to make is that it's a team effort. Sometimes working as a team requires making adjustments. Obviously you are free to ignore such requests, but by doing so you may be holding back a run that would otherwise go just fine. It doesn't always have to be pretty. It just has to work.

Team effort comes in many shapes and forms. I most of the time queue up as a healer and take care of my party. I am not going to do the same thing in the few times I wanted to play as dps. And if nobody is going to heal and I will just leave. There is literally no reason to stay and play with people who are just ruining my fun.

That's what I was going for. You can go in expecting to just dps, but if something happens where you are without a healer, instead of leaving maybe help out with it a bit.

With this attitude, please go in premade in such duties with a tank/healer by your side...
The Bozja actions are there for a reason. You can't expect to always have a healer in your group.

I can't expect to have a tank that will pull wall to wall and use cds when I queue for expert daily. This is not enough of a reason for me to be doing premade parties for dailies.

When you have been unfortunate enough to get matched with the wrong people, you just need to accept that fact and move on. Unless you want to adjust to the whims of the random people you will never meet again there is really no point to torture yourself. You leave and queue again with some luck you get the right people who will enable you to play the way you wanted to play.

There is a great amount of duplicity from the people who told me to stay out DR. I was literally told to stay out of it because I want to focus on dps. I am just left to wonder what makes a person so ridiculously wrong. Liam, you have to help me here. What prompted you to say to me what part of the game I should stay out of? I am asking honest questions. If the content was designed for any role to be able to tank, heal and dps how is focusing on dps not something you should do?

Kaoru, of course, I am not going to adjust and take up the healer actions and turn the few runs I wanted to deal dps into some support like gameplay. Why would I go to such lengths for the sake of nobodies I will never meet again. Not to mention that those same nobodies are the people who don't want to heal so someone has to take the job. It can't always be me, it's simply not happening. I really wish there were more people like me. Maybe then I wouldn't get ganged up on the forums by hypocrites.

I mean this as respectfully as I can but...having no consideration for your fellow players is a problem in and of itself, especially when group content like DR is largely a team effort. If you want to stick to dpsing that's fine, and you are free to leave or keep doing what you're doing if you don't want to adjust your gameplay ever so slightly to suit the needs of your group. Neither of those things are an issue even if I don't agree with it. Hopefully someone else is willing to step up in your place. Your attitude towards other players however leaves a lot to be desired.

I cant really have a nice attitude towards people who can't do what I have been doing for more than 80% of the runs - > heal. For me, being forced to heal every run is a big, big problem in itself. It is a personal one though so the measures I am taking are decided by me. Not by some ppl on the forums, telling me what part of the game I should stay out of.
