Tales from Duty Finder: Some make you laugh, some make you cry. Let's vent. 2.0

I'm just saying, if you're in a pre-made with a handful of randoms, please respect the randoms. You can run around trying to kill each other with mechanics when you're in your own full groups, but don't drag randoms into it.

Had an alliance raid where 5 members of the group were a pre-made. Noticed some things like them telling each other to get on VC and what not, but they weren't too chatty. Midway through the run the tank is starts running into the alliance, the whole alliance trying to hit his pre-mades with the TBs for laughs. The pre-mades are trying to drag the stack marker on top of other party stack markers, they're trying to stack their spread markers on each others, the healers are rescue yoinking.

I get it, over half of you are pre-made but 3 of us are not, and 2 parties of the alliance are not. Can you please, just not?

When the healer dies on Nero, I fat finger my keys and take a bit more damage than I should (Machinist) then I realize the healer is down so I pop a pot. Then I take unavoidable damage and pop my self heal. Then I get the stack marker. I just know I am going to die and everything is on Cooldown. Sucks to be me sometimes.

This is the second version of this thread with 280 pages. If you have an issue with it then I'd recommend making your own thread instead of posting sarcastic bait because it's a bit late to be posting in the thread complaining about its existence.

2025: Excepting people to press buttons is considered toxic.

Kind of wish the Raid "Roulette" actually put you in different raids instead of just Fist of the Father so the 11AM father-fisting police can't whine about you not pressing buttons for the 101st time in a duty you didn't queue manually through the DF for because it shouldn't be farmed that way and doesn't give credit towards the tank achievements or any Second Chance points most of the time.

You could take the penalty if you don’t want to play. Or you could play for the 5 minutes that duty takes.

I take first option - if its not fun, why bother?

That 5 minutes doing the same exact duty dozens of times adds up quite a bit. I did eventually leave once or twice after it got boring.
