Fractal...
Eh I noticed it’s always the fault of the person who actually know what he’s doing, don’t worry about it man, I could tell you stories about how many times I left a group or even got kicked because I “wasn’t supporting my group as a guardian” Nevermind the fact that all my utilities are full support for my party member heals and so on as well as virtues, and they are all on CD and yet… they are still all dead, and I’m alive, with 12k hp.. somehow.
Best use LFG site and look for people who know what they are doing and perhaps keep them in contacts, so you can do more runs with good once, worked for me in the end.
It really depends on the “tone” you are using towards the group. Most ppl don’t like it when a stranger starts giving orders out of the blue.
But i agree with you, i always roll my eyes when i see shout-only guardians on higher fractals or anything-only insert class. Ppl can play the way they like, but when things get a bit harder, they should also be more willing to bring skills to help the group.
And there is also the issue of players with low lvl fractals pretending and joining higher ones. I would not join a lvl 40 group if i am only lvl 20 and i expect the same. Yesterday when i was lvling my alt, i had to kick a lvl 12 from a lvl 24 group. If he were an alt, i wouldn’t mind, he even admitted he never did our current fractal before, which was the dredge one.
We should really be allowed to see each others fractal lvl, because ppl aren’t being honest with there lvls.
