We Need to Start Expecting Mid-Level Sprouts to Play Better

[Supersnow845]

I don't have a warped view. I have a realistic view. I already said before, this isn't some epidemic in the game. Most players do fine. Tanks mitigate, healers heal, dps do decent dps. Sometimes we get a more pear-shaped party and we have to step up. It doesn't happen often. Sometimes we're thanked. Sometimes we're not. It's rare. So we already do expect mid-level sprouts to play well and they do already play well and this entire thread is pointless posturing and gatekeeping by someone who just isn't fit for doing what's necessary those random times a PUG situation may call for it.

You do have a warped view because

1) you described support as basically amounting to “do the work of two people to make up for a slacker”
2) this type of situation is more common than it’s not, cure 1 spammers, DPS who don’t AOE, YPYT, bad players are more common than players who play at any sort of competent Level and just saying “oh it’s fine just do their work for them” every time you encounter them is bad, they should actually learn to play the game
