New Player Etiquette

[Aelin_Ashryver]

It's not a lethargic play if the DPS brought it on themselves, nobody is gonna report for a wipe on ads.

Just because you wouldn't doesn't mean others wont. This discussion has been had before and it's literally in ToS. If you purposefully don't play to let them die it's reportable like it or not lol
Whether you think they brought it on themselves or not is irrelevant.

If you can't use a cooldown or how to walk away from a yellow circle on the floor at level 90+ you need help. That help is not going to come from me.

I am not going to spend my time to explain it. You had that opportunity 30 or 40 levels ago when you started getting proper cooldowns to use.

Attacking someone for doing something different from what you or others may feel is the norm. For example, when running Alliance Raids, or playing PvP content, it is prohibited to make statements such as "why aren't you doing [specific thing]? Everyone knows that's how you do this!" If a report has been filed and the prohibited activity is confirmed, a penalty will be issued.

* There is nothing wrong with providing suggestions that the player community typically follows, but this can only be presented in the form of a "suggestion" and cannot be in the form of a demand. If said player's actions are interfering with the gameplay of others, then a penalty can be issued once a report is filed and confirmed; however, even in this type of situation, if said player is also being attacked verbally, the penalty can be issued to both players.

and the one specifically including "big pulls"

It is prohibited to force personal views or disregard the opinions of others. If a report has been filed and the prohibited activity is confirmed, a penalty will be issued.

It is prohibited to make statements such as:
"There's no way we can clear this with [suggestion]."
"Big pulls are normal here, so do it!"
"I don't care what you think, just follow my instructions."
"I'm not asking for your opinion."

Please note that Square Enix may issue a penalty in its discretion even if a report has not been filed but the act was found being conducted in public areas such as Say and Shout, search comments, Party Finder, and online video or streaming services.

if the tnak is to slow and i'm on DPS i pull for them no matter the dungeon, tanking in this game is so simple and easy and its literally optimal todo big pulls and use your burst attacks against them

Then you are the one with the problem if you are in my run. You pull you keep it. Pulling in front of the tank just slows the run down even more as the tank has to use 2-3 GCDs to get those mobs back. I wont waste more than one attempt on anyone trolling me like that. I reported the last troll last night due their parting comments when he left. The rest of the group were not impressed by him/her. I am not a slow player by anyone's standards. Play how you want when you play solo, but when you are in a group then show some respect to the group.

sorry i forgot how hard tanking in this game is that you struggle with a few extra mobs

Tanking isn't hard. It seems that playing with courtesy to others in the group is, for some. It is just a game, there are no real life consequences. So when someone is slow just give them the space they need. I am always happy to help someone diagnose their play if they wish.

oh thank god someone brings up that topic. im so tired of people treating dps jobs as something without responsibility. and people qlways jumping to stuff like elitist and dps meter, even though dmg matters.

and also you are there as a group. some act as if dps jobs dont have anything to say in anything.

I honestly get it. Everyone wants to get out of the dungeon as fast as possible, because the vast majority of players don't get to play for 24 hours 7 days a week. I get maybe 2/3 hours a day, max, sometimes less. So when I say I REALLY want to get this Stone Vigil done, I really do. I use Stone Vigil as an example often because:

1. Tanks don't have a ton of mitigation at this level.
2. Healers don't have a bunch of easy press free heal buttons.
3. DPS have like, one AOE.
It is also the dungeon where people are most prone to wiping aside from Aurum Vale (we all know how that usually goes).

None of us want to spend 30 minutes of our playtime in this dungeon, or longer. Even single pulls in this dungeon goes faster than repeatedly bashing your head against a wall, wiping, because the tank has no mit, the healer has no free heal and has cast times, the dps faceroll their buttons while pulling extra mobs.

You don't even have to be the best DPS, Tank or Healer to get through this stuff, just gotta have some self awareness and decency that way we can *all* get out of there and go have a grand ol' time AFKing in Limsa.

lol if you treat anything in a video game as something with responsibilities

don't take the word "job" literally
