Rescue is Griefing

[hydralus]

This stupid argument again, huh?

It's group content. You will not be able to consent to everything a player does to your character. You can get killed outright if the tank suddenly turned and the boss cleaves the whole party (happens plenty of times in Titania normal) or God, they even force you to MOVE if they turn around, so you can hit your positionals! That's a DPS loss right there. How DARE the tank not stand in the same spot all fight!

It's a part of the proposed difficulty of the game and part of group play. So get outta here with your stupid "non consensual" game impact.

Is comparing rescue with griefing the best you can do?

Rescue is the only skill that has another player take control of someone's character away from them. Whether you accept it or not, it often negatively impacts people's experience of the game. And when that happens, well they're gonna voice criticism...

Griefing is intentional. No I am comparing it to a much more common way that players impacts YOUR gameplay through no choice of your own. Or without your 'consent'.

Correct though in that it's the only player skill that takes control of another player. But there's other ways to take control of someone's character away from them. Getting them killed by double stacking two stackers comes to mind. And anyone can do that. We gonna ask them to remove such a feature because it could potentially get you killed "without your consent"?

As an aside I don't care if they remove rescue but these idiotic arguments are hard to read.
