So I'm playing HL Roulette, doing Tam Tara, and there's a Ninja in party. I let the group know I'm pulling in groups of 2, everyone's good with that, Bout halfway through my TP with Berserked/Internal Released/Unchained Overpower spam on 7 mobs ,I ask for Goad. I think my words were "Goad me Bro" which is usually what I say with my Ninja pal I do coil with.... and nothing.

Later, similar stuff, I'm asking "Goad please "... "Can I have Goad?" and intermittantly, and reluctantly I'd get it on the rare occassion, but inconsitently.

Finally the ninja states "Can you please Stop doing that". And I ask, "What, asking for Goad" and he replies yes.

Mind you, I've been keeping slashing debuffs up for single target bossed, and Str Speced, Ruby donned zerg mode, supertanking mobs in 2 to 3 groupings at a time

I try to explain that I can use goad to help increase over all damage, and that since he wasn't giving it to anyone else, It simply made sense to give it to me so we could zerg through the dungeon.

Anyhow, he got pouty, got into name calling, etc. We finished... i got my two recommendations from the other two, and now just this bitter taste.

Let me just say, I love Ninjas. I love that we can decide who's doing slashing debuff, that they can goad me, that they can stun adn silence etc. But at the same time, It just drives me nuts that someone would want to leave damage on the table during a speed run. I mean, what's the point of having an ability if your not going to use it? And if your not going to anticipate the need to use it, then asking is the only way it's gonna get used. And if you can't handle that... maybe support abilities are a little outside your skill level.
