I've constantly seen people complain about boosters, and tbh I hadn't really believed them as being the cause of some of the exceptionally low skilled players. From about mid SB to about mid-January of this year I had routinely run most roulettes most days of the week, and the Cure spammers or low dps players always seemed to be longtime or legacy players. Decide to do a few roulettes today for the heck of it. While many don't care for 5/6/7/8 roulette, I LOVE it. I really enjoy so many of the optional endgame dungeons that you don't often see anymore. Queue up for 5/6/7/8 as a dps and get the Twinning. Lovely, genuinely.
WAR tank lets everyone know they are "new" to tanking. I check their gear quick on the load in, full Cryptlurker including double rings, only WAR at lvl 80 other than a couple of low lvl classes. Ok, whatevs. Most likely boosted, but that's fine. So it won't be super swift, prolly a bit janky from pull to pull, but otherwise should be fine. 1st pull/forced single pull. I have agro on the entire pack other than a single mob. Healer somehow keeps me alive throughout. I ask the tank to use their AoE move. Tank doesn't know what their AoE button is and demands me tell him what it is instead of having spent 5 seconds before the dungeon to even glance at their spells. Tell them it anyways and have to ask them to use their AoE combo as well. Tank still does not use AoE throughout the entire dungeon despite numerous prompts. At times lets the entire party wipe during trash. Tank gets hostile, puts words in my mouth of things I neither said nor implied, demands to be kicked while also refusing to take agro during trash pulls, but also doesn't leave on their own accord. Tank continually tells the party he is using Overpower, and yet I and the other DPS continually have agro on the entirety of the trash packs. Twinning takes 29m to complete, which if someone was super new but also actually asking questions or taking advice well, wouldn't be a bother. But I haven't had someone get so overtly hostile and also not understand the absolute basics of the game in like 3-4 years. I'm sad because 5/6/7/8 roulette is my favorite roulette, but I don't think I'll be running it again until after DT drops.
