I used to have consolegameswiki text guides open back when I did extremes in Mentor roulette, and I'd copy paste the mechanics after a wipe and a "what happened". Thordan in particular was a fight where the text guide came in handy. No need to waste time typing 9 phases, just copy paste it straight from the website.

Actual blind runs where no one asks to be spoonfed strats are fine, but they aren't for me.
Yeah figured just as much.

I don’t know since when joining completely unprepared, without a sprout above your head and directly asking people to spell something out for you that you could have read yourself counts as trying, effort or “blind run” but participation trophies and all that.

I always thought there is a difference between guidance and copy pasting mechanics they can read on google but I guess thats what they expect from mentors now, Ill copy paste the mechanics, they ignore them, wipe five times and let that sweet sweet echo kill the boss for you. Gotcha.

Also since Im reaching my daily limit Ill just answer here to the pro gamer blind runners:

If you wanna do a blind run, state that when you join, and Ill explain the mechanics to you each time you fail if you want to, I have the patience for that, but unless you made a party finder for your specific blind run there are many other people in the party to be considered that perhaps read up beforehand, joined to clear and not to cater to one person. So if blind runs is what you want, don’t drag people that waited over half an hour for a queue in df and then have to leave and wait once again as to not offend you with……doing mechanics…
