    i love elitists warning long read

    just tried doing garuda ex thru pf as a monk and b4 we go in i tell them we should kill spurana cuz that way i know exactly when wicked wheel is going to be coming and avoid it and by the time the 2nd 1 is going to be coming she should be dead and i should be safely attacking chirada a couple ppl say ok and we go in and all goes fine until said phase and im the only one to attack spurana at that point the tank calls for a wipe and every1 jumps into the tornadoes and get themselves killed and he starts in on me saying that i should have went after chirada and so i just think he didn't he heard me at the beginning and i explain the strategy after i do say he calls me a noob and says that i have no business doing garuda ex if i cant tell exactly when she going to do a wicked wheel like they have exact timing when they happen after slipstream and then promptly leaves the grp as does everyone else the thing is this strategy works and not only does it make it easy for melee dps but the mt and the healer healing him but know they are elitist and their way is the only way srry for the rant but my god why cant ppl be a little more open minded

    Yeah, I'm gonna need some commas with that. A sprinkle of grammar as well. Helps it go down.

A couple ppl say ok and we go in and all goes fine until said phase and im the only one to attack spurana, at that point the tank calls for a wipe and every1 jumps into the tornadoes and get themselves killed.

    He then starts picking on me saying that I should have been going after chirada, so I just think he didn't hear me at the beginning, so I explain the strategy again after that.

    He called me a noob and says that I should have no business doing garuda ex if I cant tell exactly when she going to do a wicked wheel, as if they have exact timing after slipstream.

    Then he promptly left the group as everyone else did.
    I believe alike me his native langage isn't English.

    I can respect that, but I'm pretty sure most languages use punctuation. I don't think it's a primary language issue.

    I dont think this stops someone from using capital letters to start a sentence, or periods to end one. Other languages have grammar to. No, what he is using is American Text talk. Its when lazy children dont bother with proper spelling, commas, periods or anything that makes reading easy.

    And since when is it the monks job to tell the tanks and party how to do theirs? Tanks call the strat, dps dont. End of story.

    Sorry to use you as an example.
    I think you should all stop talking about spelling and proper grammar. You yourselves make a series of mistakes and have equally no right to attack him. For example "dont" is "don't" I hardly think messing up the second word in your sentence about proper grammar is an effective means to correct someone. secondly this topic is about their experience not grammar. If you are incapable of contributing perhaps you should not.


    OP you got a bad group and that is unfortunate. The party finder itself presents a risk, and communication is often the most important part of a team. I can only encourage you to try again and hope for better results.

    As an additional note, Tanks don't get magical strat and leading rights. In fact a tanks knowledge of an encounter is usually more limited then others. Things like killing adds never happen for him. Tanks are expected to know, because a bad tank can easily wipe the group. The strat is a group decision not a tanks. When an encounter is first done the ranged classes often develop the strat after repeated wipes due to their field of view. A tank does not develop strats, they are simply told or watch effective ones.
