Had a mesmer in fractals who refused to use portal after he was asked to. We had Cliffside and Thaumanova…

By the way, is anyone up for fractals today? I’m running lvl 27, 16 and 6 – in about 3 hours (on NA).

Normally it works.

Other times I get legit good players who most likely just recognise me and realise it’ll be a smooth run if they join :p

I remember Nikki, Jeth and I pug SE once with ‘anyone is welcome’ in the lfg and this ^hyena entered to look for some fun. We still pulled it through with no stacking, no skipping, no FGS with a bonanza of conjured weapons and spirit weapons.

P.S.: love you!

I forgot to share this pearl with you guys.

The other day I was pugging Arah on NA (new favourite activity) and it was advertised for exp 5K+ AP. I join with my 750 AP, explain that I’m exp, all is fine. The instance owner even removes the AP requirement

Then joins this ranger who didn’t seem to have a clue. We kick him. He comes back and says : “I pay you 6g to carry me”.

My heart died a bit there…

Guys, whats the point using a ranged weapon, if you stay in melee range?
In TA now all 4 of my team mates did this and no one answered why it’s good for them.
2 warr, 1 guard and 1 ranger. Later one is .. yeah .. rangers. But the two rifle warr and scepter shield guard is a bit weird.

Be thankful they stayed in melee rather than kited the boss all around the place so you couldn’t melee.

I’d feel okay… If they had to complete a 40+ fractal to unlock the track and it’s not part of the regular rotation.

Uh… yeah and the thing they got was a random weapon skin. It would seriously be a kick in the teeth if pvp folks got to choose and we did not.

Joined a ‘level 80, speed run, zerker only’ LFM for AC. I should have known it was all a lie when the spider queen took more than a few seconds to kill, and the only might stacks were my own; despite 2 other eles and 2 warriors. When I watched 2 of them try and ice bow 4 a burrow without it dying I started looking at all the buffs.

Uhg, I had the worst TA Aether path I have ever had. 3-4 hours of running the dungeon. Started off with 3 rangers, my ele, and a guardian. We struggle quite a bit on the slick ooze portion and we lose one of the rangers, after losing the ranger, we succeed. Get a new player, its a mesmer (after going through a lvl 80 with a worrying lack of AP (500 and a lvl 80? I normally see at least 700 when I see an 80) in other words, way too new, another lvl 80 with far too much AP (18k… achievement hunter? Yep he asks to do an achievement and leaves right after) and the third being our lucky break). I explain the whole Sparki and Slick fight and how anyone with the ooze pheromone debuff needs to find oil and stand near it. Most of the party ends up running for their lives the moment they get the debuff. We lose another ranger here, and replace with a guardian. Our second attempt is successful, but we lose the last ranger due to lag, and the first guardian due to lack of time. Quickly replaced by the two either most idiotic warriors I’ve ever met, or they were trolls. So we go through the first hologram generator fairly quick, get to the part with 2 of em, we destroy one of the generators a bit slow, then I find out I’m the only person by the second generator while everyone else hides behind the corner fighting the endless waves of holograms. Then finally the Mesmer of the group (new to the dungeon) says that they should probably follow me (after I keep telling them, repeatedly, they need to kill holograms near the generator) comes out, and the Mesmer has the agro of enough holograms that we kill the generator, then the group proceeds to wipe to the horde of aetherblades since no one was killing the watcher besides the Mesmer and me. Then comes the puzzles room, no real trouble, and then… the clockheart… first phase wasn’t too bad, one wipe. Second phase… the Mesmer dc’ed before our second attempt at the clockheart and no one would kill the holograms near the Clockheart. Attempt two, both the guardian and I take charge and tell them we need to lure the hologram to the clockheart and then kill the hologram. What do the warriors do (and I mean BOTH of them)? They go around the room constantly killing the holograms! I quickly kick em, and our Mesmer was dc’ed for too long and was auto kicked (would have loved to see him back. At least he listened) So, the guardian and I end up duo’ing the clockheart and killing it.

Seriously, half of the dungeon was made much harder than it really was.

Yeah, I know. I like to give the benefit of the doubt, though I really should have been careful. Then again, it was the guardian that was the most trouble, not the rangers. The guardian was very laggy to begin with. The rangers did a decent job. I should have asked the guardian to leave and told him why.

I know a ranger too, who is a really really good player, but sadly there was like 3 more who was on his level. Everybody else was just a subpar deadweight.
Also, i had not too long ago a good ranger (read: s/wh, spotter, spirit), but he refused to use FGS and pushed out Alpha every frickin time which in itself wasn’t a big deal, but it made our run harder than it could be.

Reading around the forum and I find it ironically hilarious. While I almost yank all the hairs on my head out worrying that I may fail my upcoming trials, others are claiming that: dungeons (pve) are too easy, ‘have no hopes’, ‘stacking dumbs down players’ skills’ and ‘speedrunning guilds spread toxic gameplay’, etc. Wow.

ACp1. Try to solo it. Horribly fail at Howling king.
Oh well, life goes on, give free loot to random strangers.
Post on LFG. 1 warr, 2 ranger and 1 guardian come in.
Skippy part, i engage howling at the northern ruins.
Fiery rush, guardian arrives and leaps on the enemy.
2 ranger pulls out a longbow, warrior grabs his rifle and start to pew pew.
In melee range. On top of the other FGS.
