    And it is BECAUSE a lot of these players cannot be trusted not to crit fail mechanics all at once which is why you have that insurance policy.
    Its not an insurance policy. It cannot be relied upon for a myriad of reasons (long charge time, disappearing for several reasons, short range, refills people in the wall, healer reliant). It would be better for people to actually learn mechanics than hope to be carried by a healer lb3.

    So more an unreliable last resort option (in the case of healer LB3).

    Then report for Obstruction. The only way the general player is going to learn mechanics is under pain of loss of account if they don't.

    Why on earth would I report someone for not being good at the video game?

    Because it obstructs your progress, takes your time, and may (depending on how the "bad" is) constrict the future of the game, in your view.

    Are you okay?

    Someone being bad at a game obstructs nothing for me. Nothing stops me from leaving the party if I'm really feeling some type of way about it. I'd rather try and help them improve than arbitrarily try and get them banned for no reason (not that anyone's gonna get there account terminated for that anyway). The game will be fine with people who aren't good at it just like it always has been.

    Counterpoint: It's better to clear the content then waste a half hour or more of your life due to a bad group.
