Dont do same mistake as me !

[Lecreuset]

So people do the enrage strat so much now that there are actually a few who don't know about what people were doing before this? LOL

Can't really say whose mistake this was as I wasn't there to see the whole run but this is pretty funny

[Eardstapa]

Wait, am I understanding that people were doing the normal, and much faster method, of killing ADS... And you were not expecting it? Wow. We need more people like this, because the enrage method is rather dull.

I got t4 done this week in a 6/8 FC party finder :P

I mean our tank's power supply died, I wasn't going to get it done any other way

This is really rude.

I'd venture to guess that they didn't bother to tell you their tactics because they wanted to replace you as soon as their FC member showed anyway. In fact, with such a group of people, they probably wished that you make as many mistake as you can so they can kick you out easier.

I hate it when people just sack outsiders like that. Either they should just wait, or they should be committed to play with that outsider for the run.

Did you speak up and say you didn't know how to run T2 normally? That you didn't know what you was doing? The 2/2/4 setup would have been a dead give-away of the tactics.

You're saying this mean FC replaced you as they was 'using' you while waiting for a FC member.

I'm reading 'I don't know the proper method for T2, got hit a lot and then replaced'

is the rot method really that hard for people? i joined a 7/8 static once as a pug healer and i was able to catch on after the first wipe. putting numbers over peoples heads and counting is hard yo

As a long time MMO player, I disagree. Take every chance that you get. If you want to be good, anyway.

A better rule would be not to take everything to heart, no matter what people say, and to always try hard. People usually form these groups to down bosses, not to teach you how to play. Sometimes, they try to do both because of the pool of available players for that level of content.

But if it is necessary, why wouldn't you make a replacement? especially if you have a better player standing by.

It happens. If people give you shit, just brush it off and get back up again.

For example... We were clearing t5 yesterday. We had a healer getting hit by divebomb on every set. Twin kill just not gonna happen with that. Maybe they were slow, maybe it was lag, but we had someone else standing by who did not have this problem.

Tank swapping is how that instance was meant to be played. If you are not used to it, that must mean you are used to the SUPER POPULAR enrage mode, where you only need one tank.

[Chihaya]

tl;dr version

OP joined a T2 coil with members that was mostly from the same FC and was doing it the way it is meant to be done (not enrage method). OP does not know about tank swapping and takes conal damage from mobs repeatedly over several runs/attempts. Group kicks/replaces OP with another player.

OP: ALL FC GROUPS ARE BAD

That i joined a party in PF created only by same FC members. Because they like to use people to do the content and once a member from Their FC come online and wants to join they trow you out !

Well its normal it happened.
I mean whats the priority level of you ( the pug ) compared to one of their friends / FC members ? Pretty much zero.
Pugs are nothing more than expandable tools in a nearly full FC run.

I dont agree with the method since it kinda rude, but i totally understand why they did use it.
Its your fault for not paying attention on what you were getting into.
