That coupled with job boosts now its more of an issue. But its not a bad thing if people help others. Yes normally when you run a 24 man you'll have a higher chance of coming across people who may not be the best at the game. But that doesn't mean they can't be! I've worked with plenty of bad alliances (and beyond hope alliances I must admit) that got better with guidance and help, and you know what thats 7 other players (on a bad night) that now can run the content even better than before! We help shape the community. Just calling out and asking why are people so bad/or fail work against the community.

You have to look at it from the standpoint Hashmal does alot of damage and does it relatively quickly combined with one shot insta deaths. It's very easy to screw up more so than most content aside from savage. Typically in savage, you know from the get go if a group will work or not. With a 24 man, you can mostly, mostly cheese Mateus to get to Hashmal. So many, even new players are unprepared for the steep increase in difficulty. At first you may be thinking, oh this party is going to be great! (I always think of Lucio with that.....) Then Hashmal appears and everyone is dead. Even for seasoned vets whom I've also seen take a column or wing to the face. In the end, stuff happens, bad luck and placement happens, and everyone dying happens. Again, as in my previous post, its how you bounce back and learn from the fight that makes the difference.
