    What makes you drop a group?

    Everyone's got that one thing they can't stand that other people do. Everyone's got a breaking point where if they see someone do THAT ONE THING just ONE MORE TIME, you'll be out the door faster than a baptist at Burning man. No matter what role you play, tank, healer, dps, whatever, there's that one thing you've had alls you can stands 'till you can't stands no more.

    Mine is knockbacks. I like playing melee classes, and nothing is more annoying than some dude giving into this voice in head whispering Knock back all the things! Especially when they're trying to use it as a coup de grace on something that's almost dead. Like, what is the point? What are you doing, man? Just let us kill it! (Machinists, you are SUPER guilty of this!)

    A close second are people who keep jumping everywhere. I dunno, it's just aggravating.

    I don't. I've never dropped from a group as I always endeavour to get the job done. I've vote abandoned though when it was clear that it was an impossible feat in 24 man content and the alliance was full of trolls.

    The only time I've ever dropped from a group was when it was clearly a completely lost cause for one reason or another.

    And I don't mean "we wiped once", I mean "I'm squeezing out every bit of damage I can on Bismarck (Story) and we can't even get past the adds phase because literally everyone else is doing ~100 DPS" lost cause.

    Mostly it's simply because people are just not getting it despite being told the mechanics and what to do. This goes both ways too if there is a part of a fight I don't fully understand and nobody can help me I'd rather leave than make life difficult for everyone else then come back when I've found somebody who can explain it for me. These situations usually happen when somebody but the Tank has to specifically do something. Alexander 4th floor is the most recent one with people needing to avoid healers, healers avoid each other and DPS having to keep on top of the adds in the second phase some runs no matter how much you stress the importance of people killing those adds away from each other people will still tunnel on the boss or pile the adds up. Sometimes you just have to abandon a run after 5 pulls and nothing is getting better because it'll take much longer than the time you get to teach the people who are not getting it.

    Other reasons I've left are a diva Tank or just a 24 man raid where one whole party is there to troll and cause wipes though this only really happened in CT.

    I have never left for anything like that. There are times when I want to hit whoever plays something because they keep doing something that makes healing them almost impossible, but the only two times I ever left was when someone was bashing me and/or someone else as well as calling names and whatnot and I just won't take that because I know no one deserves it. Other than that I will fight till the end unless the party decides to abandon it together.

    I honestly never drop a group unless
    Vote abandon
    I'm having a very bad day

    Like yesterday, a group I -really- should have dropped in the Aery (I was feeling it once the bard complained about low DPS, but then I told her to stop using Paeon at the very beginning of battle, and she told me it didn't matter because her DPS was fine......... I was feeling it hard right then but no I stayed) but it was okay in the end since we cleared it with literally thirty seconds left.

    I mean I get bugged by a lot of things that people do but I'm not going to leave just because of a pet peeve, which is what those sound like, OP.
    (Sorry)

    I don't really have any actions or habits in other players that annoy me enough I'm willing to eat a 30 m lockout. I'm mostly going to try and complete what ever I queued for, if party performance in general is bad enough I might drop but by that point someone would start a vote abandon. If someone is trolling the party to the point something needs to be done, that's what vote kick is for.

    The only extra mobs not tied to loot chests are the 8 to the right In the swamp. I will pull for chests for at level groups even as a 60 tank if the levelers want them or full clear if they want it. They are the ones that need the dungeon, I am only there for the law roulette. I can spend an extra five minutes on this if people need it.
