IM'd SC HM with my pet AMbush/Behe brawler, to get my baby sorc a belt. After the 2nd boss, the following conversation takes place:
Me: *mystic name*, voc
Mystic: ?
Me(thinking he doesn't know what I want him to do with voc): endurance debuff
Mystic: ????
Me(thinking he doesn't get the abbreviation): volley of curses
Then it quickly devolved into me, being part confused by his complete lack of understanding and effort, and him, calling me names and complaining I wasn't speaking English. Until eventually my pet and I duo'd the last boss while the mystic kept complaining(from the floor) we made this experience [filtered] for him as he promptly got carried to a clear(and had the [filtered] to roll on the belt). I swear, next time somebody responds with "???" in a dungeon, I'm kicking or leaving.
I can understand in high ping it's hard to deal with the lasers and I felt that when my ping was high a times. Tanking during the high ping is also very difficult. People from NA don't need to experience high ping if they already have a good ISP; however even with good ISP, there are already a number of people and even myself have been experiencing these ping issues for quite some time due to the recent issues.
Your post however is invalid. I only described an experience I went through and then all this about me trying a vpn and play a priest doesn't appear to be valid for this thread. There is no need for me to try a vpn service if I already have a good ISP and the priest in my party at that one run had good ping. I also don't need to play priest if I don't want to. Most games I usually play tank or a dps; maybe one day I will try healer but someone like you cannot just force me to try a healer class and go through that. People enjoy what class they play. Instead you should ask what I go through as a tank; I work just as hard as anyone in this game and to where I have reached; went through alot to get where I am now.
Just because I have good ping, doesn't mean that I don't understand others that have high ping. I've experienced it also and there is nothing I can do to help others. If i had the power, I would love to help everyone and decrease ping somehow. My posts are not "get gud" posts....not sure where you get that from but people like you seem to be jealous of me.
Dps: "You didn't heal me! You [filtered] healer."
Me: "You iframed the heal....."
Dps: "You were still supposed to heal me!"
Me: "Not with that attitude I won't."
-Dps leaves party-
irritates the [filtered] out of me and is for the most part the reason why I don't bother tanking anymore unless I have a full group of friends
2) Mystics who don't use motes or even use their totem.
3) Tanks that try to dps instead of tank and wipes the party.
4) Healers that never cleanse status effects that are cleansable.
5) DPS or Healers that run off and start bosses or pull who rooms of elite mobs before tank is ready and cries when they die.
6) people who are skilled in hardmode dungeons and never iframe or dodge one shot mechanics.
these are just some of my long list of PUG encounters over my years of playing
Can relate to all of those....the last one was in a RMNM run. 1st boss a warrior complained that I didn't cleanse him when he got stunned (I was on mystic btw) And when he died, he literally complained how a healer should cleanse at all times.
1) Dps who think they're tanks and start boss fights - My remedy for this is to get the healer to let them die. Usually involves me getting some kind of verbal abuse but hey I'm 27 and I've heard it all before. Best time I saw this was SSNM with an archer who started Imperator and I left him and his buddies to die. They all went ham on him and they all floormatted.
DPS: "Fel wtf wtf"
Me: You started the fight when I'd said brb twice in caps GG
Healer: Well he did say brb but you wanted to tank it yourselves right?
DPS: "Profanities and rage as I actually rolled highest for Versa"
Healer: Don't let them bother you dude.
Me: thinking -How stupid are people these days then procs to respond to healer "I'm used to it it's cool"
2) Trolls: If I ever get my hands on you people that troll hard in dungeons. I'd gladly like a word with you involving a mallet and a bacon slicer.
3) People that claim I've got bad rolls when all their rolls are in green and not a single good roll on their gear.
4) Dps that attack from the front. Maybe I should back crit instead that'll root the boss in place surely right?
5) My personal favourite: Warrior- "I'm going D Stance brawler" Me: " Okay but if you enrage I'm gonna let you die ok" Warrior : "Wtf dude" Me- "You are aware I can enrage myself right?" Warrior " I thought brawler was mostly dps" -facepalm-
6) LFG : Tank comes up repeatedly for the passed 20 - 30 mins. I click join party then get denied because I'm A) A Brawler or
I could go on but then I go from PUGS to LFGS to whole tera experiences.
I have one from a DFHM run the other night on my mystic (me and my brother duoed Mystics) First boss tank is getting slaughtered, losin 3/4 of his health each hit, even on basic crap, the dps are running around like chickens with their heads chopped off and iframing heals and even better, we are tossing motes EVERYWHERE and they literally wont pick them up(that annoys the crap out of me and my brother), THEN they start yelling at us for not healing, im like really...there are 50 motes all around and you're to lazy to grab one to cleanse yourself?!
2nd boss basically the same scenario, dps facetanking, tank is still basically getting oneshotted.
3rd boss we finally had enough, i stopped and inspected the tank and he was wearing some of the oddest crystals i even seen, wrong jewelry crystals, the whole nine yards, so i tried to explain to him he had on the wrong stuff, he procedes to cuss me out and tells me to just do my job...now my brother was healing him in front and i had the dps in the back. The dps i cant even explain this lol, i throw motes, totem etc etc and they stand in the poison and get the bomb and run at me from all directions, they killed me a few times (guess they thought it was funny idk) so my brother who's in the front screams "GRAB THE DAMN MOTES!" they dont ofc lol. Now my brother is having a hell of a time with the tank, hes not blocking, face tanked everything., my brother is still nervous healing (we both took a hiatus from the blame the healer crap) he dies, tank dies, WITH motes there beside him, so i drop more motes and tell the dps, use the motes so i can rez the tank....they dont (facepalm). I get the tank back up, get my brother back up and haul [filtered] to the rear again and the dps are ALL dead, again motes EVERYWHERE!! I thought that dungeon would never end!!!
Even had one tell us, we dont need to grab motes, this dungeon is easy, yeah its easy if you know the MECHS!! I swear half the people dont know what a mote is anymore LOL.
I told him that...and he got quiet, until we went to 2nd boss and he literally face tanked everything and died due to bleed....so he yelled again for a faster cleanse, and after that I just left him dead.
1)Doesn't happen too often
2)I don't even drop motes anymore unless in last boss RMHM or HH cus people usually never eat them.
3)Yeah that happens alot
4)I've had healers say VoK was stressful while they sat there literally doing nothing
5)Leveling dungeon and IMS life right there
6)That's fairly common in LFGs cus they're "skilled"
And don't even get me started on DFHM... This poor mystic healing a full team of newbies alone tried to res me in a poison puddle. He was losing health fast and tried to teleport away, but instead of getting to safety he teleported right into another puddle and died! He got cussed out so hard he left.
Also this
I can't, this is too funny.
