  • In dfn, i was tanking as lancer, this mystic kept starting boss before anybody is ready and doesnt heal, only use that weak auto attack.
    And at last boss, mystic rushed in and facetank boss and auto attack, before half the raid even reach last boss.

    I went to join in after almost all the people are there, and as i fight, i was out of mana most of the times. And i see that mystic just auto attacking, i typed 'mana please.' , and the mystic is still auto attacking.

    After the fight, i told that mystic 'i rather you give me mana than doing trash auto attacking' and dropped.

    That mystic got so triggered he made character on every server named 'learn.rotation.pls' to find which server im on, and send me mail with something like 'im mystic, you should learn your rotation before asking healer for mana'.

    I wasnt even nad at that point, and was laughing.

    Another instance was in vok, where im the only one dealing any damage.
    At last boss, 1%, the boss did the one shot mech, and put me to sleep. The other 4 tried to copy me and yolo dpsing trying to kill the boss with 1% hp, all 4 of them died, cant even deal 1% boss hp in that mech timeframe, and I killed the boss in the end.

    I usually main my lancer, but today I felt like playing my healer a bit. Couldn't find one IMS tank all day capable of keeping threat. Bosses spun so goddamned much. All I really did was LKNM but the first and second bosses in every run were disasters because of poor tanking and really greedy dps dying in puddles and stuff. It's crazy how a single good tank can make up for an inexperienced group in a place like LK, but it's true. I soloqueue that place on my lancer all the time with newbie healers and rookie dps and we still clear it smoothly even when people aren't communicating and decide to play like [filtered], because good positioning and a tanky lancer can make up for so many mistakes made by other people. Doesn't hurt that I carry plenty of potions and have a nice amount of gear that allows me to survive even when I happen to screw up a bit and the healer is busy auto attacking.

    But on my healer, I feel like all I can do is maintain my buffs/debuffs/group's general health and mana and then watch as they [filtered] up every two seconds. I'm not saying a good healer can't force-carry a bad group, because I spent the day doing just that, but I AM saying that none of those runs felt smooth like they do when I'm in rookie groups on my tank. For example, in the second boss of LKNM, the overall damage was so slow that the boss had spat puddles all over the place and it was only at like 50%. Instead of even trying to reposition the boss to a safer location, this brawler (who had threat probably half of the fight at best) just kept tanking it there, surrounded by puddles on all sides, while inside of a puddle himself. It was a good thing I used the cleanse cdr glyph, because I was literally pressing that button off cd. Then this slayer in our group would lose his hp and go running off to the other side of the room, and it's like dude what're you doing how do you expect to get healed when you're 80m away from the fight. He tried that at Lillith and ran into the aoe bordering the room and died there; I had to res him and divine intervention him back into the arena, [filtered] was nuts.

    Sometimes on my lancer I'll click every dungeon in the instance matchmaking menu and just do whichever thing I end up with. It's telling that I feel so much apprehension walking into an IMS DFHM. I'll always ask if anyone feels like tanking prima, but nowadays I don't expect much; no one ever responds or attempts it in IMS groups, but they all complain when the first boss is a mess. It's nuts, but I've actually learned how to just tank them both. It's really not enjoyable at all for anyone involved, but it's what I get stuck doing because dps are unwilling to help their team. That place, though, is another example of a dungeon where having a good tank can lead to really smooth runs even if everyone else is shitting the bed. I've soloqueued that place on my healer as well, and it's really terrible when your tank sucks there. If your dps are bad on top of it, then you straight up can't clear because puddles will just fill the room. Legit blows my mind how on my lancer I'll soloqueue nearly anything, but on my priest nowadays I limit myself to a handful of dungeons to avoid having a [filtered] aneurysm.
  • Leveling dungeon: the mystic was using nothing else but their auto-attack (not kidding). After we were almost all below 30% hp and stood in front of them hoping for a heal, they finally dropped one mote - and ate it themself.

    After asking them repeatedly I thought they might not speak English. However they got pretty salty when we didn't lead the boss out of the room because they were scared of the little spawning mobs. :eh:

    It was an odd situation; we wiped like 3 times before clearing it. Most issue was at the 30 percent and under knock back phase priest kept dying. I got jailed like 2 or 3 times times and survived but the priest died once when we were targetted. I don't get it how a priest can die so fast, especially I was the one that was jailed and when they can cleanse themselves.
    .

    Idk about this priest, but if you're rly good at this game, you should try something:

    *Use a VPN program, select an asian server or somewhere till you got 200 ms+ constant ping;
    *Play a priest, remember: There's no teleport jaunt to skip the mech and save your [filtered] on the laser+cage+stagger+bleeding;
    *Just cleanse and walk/dodge/do the same thing as you usually do on your 30 ms lancer;
    *Count your deahts;
    *Come back here and post your usual "get gud" or...inform yourself and read this thread: https://forums.enmasse.com/tera/discussion/9359/rmhm-laser-rubberbanding#latest

    Congratulations, now you know how like almost half of NA population play this game!

    P.S: Ik it's possible with some tricks, but i rly think ppl from NA sometimes should experience high ping rmhm.



    Hahahaha totally agree.
    7 of 10 players in NA are south americans. If you go to Highwatch, will see spanish and portuguesse are the most used languajes in chats.
    I can figure yet why Enmasse not put a server at least on Central Brasil, or central part of Argentina. And make it easy too receive their money too. They are the most active peopple in the game right now.

    Play with 200+ ping means your iframes wont iframe :p (Specially sorc backstep or Tj). Most of the times, you can see a red circle of danger, walk OUTSIDE it and yet it hit you, because you know... U re not outside it, ahaha, that is what u see on the client side but is not what happens on the server side.

    We manage somehow to play a HARDENED hardmode of things. The truly HARD :P

    do you mean sinestral manor? you haven't been able to glitch the last boss for ages.
  • Today I used IMS to go to LKNM for my mystic. The team that I had wiped on Pyrepelt and we tried again. What I found appalling was that the Lancer who had a visible +15 weapon, had the defense of wet paper. He kept dying and using the auto res. Sometimes I had to res him myself. He lured the mob on the bridge and guessed what, died like a dog. Cut to standing outside of Lillith, I inspected him and he had +15 imp weapon and all +12 Dreadnaught gear. He kept apologizing for dying repeatedly; I wouldn't call the Lancer a trap, just someone who hasn't returned to the game in a long time. I hope the Lancer learned to farm for Intercede tokens on dailies or IoD quests so he can get Guile gear at least.
  • @Venpai Yes it was! I don't think the mystic ever read any guide (because of them auto-attacking like this) but maybe the friend they queued with did, and their guide was out-dated. Oh well, it happens :chuffed:
  • @HowAboutNo Well we stopped doing that after avatar weapons were invented soo yh, VERY outdated indeed

    Depends what you mean by recent, because I've never heard or seen it, and I started 2 years ago (and levelled plenty of alts).

    I wasnt talking about being able to do it, im just saying ppl stopped feeling the need to do it, simply because now u can kill the mini ovos in half a hit and they're just not a threat anymore
