Worst end game community ever?

[Lunchable]

Oh, I've seen much worse.
Just make some friends, join a FC, and avoid duty finder as much as possible.

I've been around MMO's for years from EQ1 to Darkfall and Mortal Online. Believe me, I've been around the cream of the crop in terms of straight online douches. But for a PvE focused game, this has taken the cake.

That said, SE deserves some blame here for throwing cut scenes randomly throughout end game dungeons (usually RIGHT before boss fights) and then allowing players to skip them without notifying others and splitting the ground during lockout.

And for not putting lockout timers on the 'speed farm' dungeons. It's unreal that people are literally spending their end game farming the same, easy dungeon over and over.

The Speed Runner are ruining everything via Duty Finder. They will bitch and complains if you are new and watch cut scences. A lot of people already quitting this game over it. The problem is they have an end game dungeon tie into the Story Quest Mode, meaning you have to do this Dungeon. I wish I don't have to do it but I have to finish the Story Quest. I hope all the Elitist and Rusher get their crap soon and be server first or whatever so other can carry on that don't care.

I hope SE is doing something about this because to stop this Speed Run BS

I'd like to note for Amdapor Keep, the gear requirements are a little higher than one would expect. That doesn't mean they should heckle you for it, but at least mention to you to get some darklight before attempting Amdapor Keep.

Did you mention on entry "This is my first time here, could you guys give me some leway and tips?"

For Amdapor keep was actually a real nice group and is far and away the best experience I've had. It's been the story line dungeons that have caused massive headaches.

But yes, I always mention it's my first time. As I see many other players do - doesn't seem to phase the speed farmers.

Yes, you should feel free to watch the CS's at your leisure. Expecting fully geared and relic'd players for every CM/Prae/AK duty finder run is the definition of idiocy, and it doesn't surprise me these are the quality individuals ruining things for a lot of otherwise competent and friendly players. This type of person falls into the same category as the one who continuously aggros Titan in HM, wiping the party over and over, just because they didn't go 1/1 through DF.

That being said, and from personal experience, after you've run these dungeons umpteen times already to gear one or two classes, you really just want them over with ASAP. It's common in any MMO end-game setting.

The elitist/toxic community needs an attitude check, and has since about the second week in.

I dont understand why you need darklight or why ppl are so insane about it ( for speed runs yeah i guess i understand) but seriously Amdapor Keep is more than doable in full AF, i dont understand where people got the idea that you need darklight in order to do it.

I have done AK so many times...I loathe it...but it comes down to that many people seem to think that speed leveling via fates, quickly completing story line to get access to AK, and then immedietly queing up wearing lvl 29-40 gear + having absolutely no clue how to play their class is acceptable and expect to be carried...or wonder why people are so upset. At very least, new 50s should go buy a lvl 50 weapon for 5-10k....I mean I put in the effort to run lower instances for some gear like WP so why can't others This whole argument can work both ways.

For sure you do NOT need partial or full DL gear to do AK but I do suggest having lvl 45+ gear since that should make you and your group's run much smoother.

We found that to do it in any normal stretch of time, at least a FEW pieces of darklight were needed, or at least a primal weapon to make sure the foray into the dungeon didn't last the full two hours.

That's just my opinion, but Square Enix are adding a gear requirement for dungeons come patch 2.1 which should solve the issue.

As stated previously, the armor that drops in AK is less powerful than DL, therefore, SE will not require people to have ANY DL to run it.

I'm (hoping) it'll be "fixed" eventually. By that I mean more the more casual players who are just in it to have fun (Like myself) will start to work on more end game content as they reach it and eventually it'll even out.

If it stays bad then finding a friendly free company is probably the best solution.
