how hard is it to do the simple things?

Don't assume everyone has swiftcast

if you are a healer an you cant take the time to go lv thm a lil bit for swiftcast, you are gimping yourself and your pt lol Full cast time for raise in mid battle is rediculous an damn near useless. By the time u finish casting it someone else will be dead or almost dead.


On topic, the biggest thing that frustrates me, is when your trying to help a new person in a dungeon, an they dont talk. You explain stuff to them, they just stand there, an then when its time to fight they run in an dont do anything that was discussed cuz they didnt even read the chatlog lol

When I started playing, I had no idea about swiftcast until I was cursed out. How was I suppose to know? Simply explaining about swiftcast would have worked instead of being rude.
So Garlyle is right. Don't assume. Try to explain while being calm. If they don't want to hear you out, let them continue to be fail. Maybe they will learn.

If you was a new player an didnt know then yes that is understandable. If you are lv 50 an in Titan HM (as garlyle stated), an still havent figured out about swiftcast, then ya, you are gimping your group. You will never be able to raise anyone in that fight no matter how hard u try, so you shouldve figured it out by then, as i highly doubt you never encountered difficulty with the cast time at anytime befor then.

Once more, how are you supposed to know about swiftcast i the first place if noone tells you before cursing at you? I personally did everything up to garuda HM till i found out swiftcast existed at all. People just assume you have it and when you start slowrezzing they loose their shit instead of saying "try to get thm cross skill swiftcast asap".

for dodging, I have explained it more then not, especially for Titan, it isnt that people cant dodge, it is that people when they see the actual action is already too late, is called server lag, for the player everything si smooth but that half a second or even second is enough to kill you, most say .:*he cant dodge*..it would be best to say...he didnt see it on time...people assume too much in this game..wayy too much and judge other's people abilities based on THEIR own criterias and situation....maybe just accepting that when you enter in a group not everybody knows, can or will do as you expect want or demand...if you cant accept that you shoudlnt enter a group with unknowns or any groups for that matter.

For healers, is true, as a scholar, I find it easier to manage mana...but as a whm, if i see the guy is not able to stand on his feet, I wont cast rez again, too much mana, mana that I need to heal those that actually can do something. Players that DEMAND to be rezed are just selfish and really dont take into account what is happening around them more then not, I, healer, need also to take into account that I may be in a situation where I may need to heal 8 people on my own e.g. Titan HM fall over the platform...so you telling me I should rez you use 3/4 (so to speak) of my mana, incidentally I have no Bards to give it back to me, just because you dont want to lay dead there and so risk a wipe (at that point isnt certain it will be a wipe) just for your little selfish comfort? hell no way....

Maybe your saying it the wrong way as soon as someone starts to be an ass I ignore anything the put in group chat you can say something with being an ass

[Takeva]

What's the point...?

And you were in a low level dungeon and you expect them to get it right away? I can't even begin to understand what you were saying about the healer...

[Lord_Zlatan]

lag/dodging is one thing that you just have to live with IMO. Some people use it as code speak for I suck at the game, but otherwise it can be a legit reason. Its no big deal.

Other things, however, can be a really huge PITA. Like explaining to people that have "cleared" T4 that you shouldn't stand in front of the Dreadnought. People who have "cleared" Titan X that provoke him while they and the entire raid are behind him >.> . Tanks that know how to "Speed Run" that flash once. This are all things that if they happen once, hey its no big deal. If you explain it a few times and they blatantly are not listening or use don't understand what is happening, then that is a huge annoyance.

You´ll always will have such "special" players. I just ignore them, give them 1-3 chances and then just kick them if it´s just one or leave the duty. It cost me less time waiting off the "punishment" than trying to get through the dungeon with them and getting headache in the progress.

For people new to the game (or MMOs in general) there is quite a lot for them to drink in...Avoiding AoEs or rezzing the dead in combat might be mainstream to you and me, but to them the concepts may be completely foreign. The leveling process doesn't really teach them these things too much, aside from the occasional dungeon. That is where I believe it falls to at least some of the community to lend a hand. If they need help or a quick tip then give it to them...granted they want help at all. I've seen it happen on more than one occasion where they respond with "Don't tell me how to play, I'll do what I want!"...so I leave those types for the next group to deal with lol
