So, last night I got a whisper from a friend who needed help completing Arah p4 for her dungeon master. The group was a mix of people who needed DM and a couple of experienced ones. The run was going fine until we reached Lupi. We wiped a couple times, and then this guy said “A warrior could solo Lupi in 6 minutes.” “All experienced runners know this strategy” “This is my last try, I have a guild run waiting for me in 20 minutes.” I knew the path, he knew the path, most of us knew Lupi but the others in our group probably hadn’t ran Arah regularly. He was a warrior, so really at that point I should’ve told him to do his 6 min solo, I had it with him. Well, we wiped again at the last phase, he bailed, turned out he started the instance so we all got kicked.

A. Don’t expect the same amount of knowledge and skill from other players when you aren’t in an advertised “experienced group”
B. Don’t whine and make yourself look like a kitten when the run isn’t going as well as you hoped
C. Do yourself and others a favor: If you’re looking for an experienced and/or speed run join an experienced group. If you have a short amount of patience, this is for you.

Pretty much agreed.

D. Expect pugs to be absolutely terrible, unless they’re “experienced”, then expect them to be a little less terrible.

E. Don’t start an instance if you’re a rage quitter.

K. If doing Arah p4 for someone’s DM title, its easier to 4 man lupi with the 5th hiding out of combat than to try to 4 man it with a 5th who eats every attack and gets grubbed constantly.

Some players expect dungeons to be like disney movies, thinking everyone will start singing and dancing on sync… well those elitists disney watchers should know that in real life 5 strangers will never coordinate that easy and it might take extra effort.

This is an interesting thought.
If I make a mistake when I’m playing with my friends, they usually help me and pick me up. If we’re pugging 2/3 slots we’re basically 2/3-manning: they’re such a burden that we have to literally carry them, and every single mistake I make can mean the failure of the entire team (especially when playing guardian at, say, shaman), because pugs don’t ress, don’t support and especially don’t dps. So… yeah. Still, I don’t have fun when carrying so hard, so no thx.
And spoj, I was lagging so hard I couldn’t even watch the ranger livestream… I managed to hear something about rabid trappers, though. After that, I logged off and went to read a book…

Oh well i took the time to level my ele a bit. Pugged some arah with neo and adam after and even though we said any welcome cause we felt like carrying we actually got fairly decent pugs rofl. Meleed lupi with us and werent a total burden. They just wiped in p3. But easy duo/trio to finish.
