If we gonna make a comparison we have to keep the variables the same. I'm talking about dps queue time. Not tank, not healer. DPS.
Now make a dps and tell me if golden labyrinth, or cultists refuge or Saravash pops in 3-4 mins. Because on EU it does.
Also about farming. During the huge queue times we have here you need to do something. There are a few spots in tera that have good amount of mobs that you can collect-kite-and kill for fast xp. One of these places is the area I told you. You go there for this reason only. Unless you wanna do the story.
And I m gonna agree with you, this desert area is ugly.
Point is back when I started playing tera places like popolion where having like 20-30 people running around , with the respective PK going outside of the gates too.
Now go to popolion at any time and tell me how many newbies you see. Go at any town of low lvl and tell me how many newbies you see.
The population has declined a lot. And since I'm an old player the difference is quite tangible for me.
u seriously got censored for this lawl clearly this was a wot rant.
Anyhow, was just pointing out the diff in culture 2013 vs 2017 from my pov and no I don't LFG or as many guild runs anymore since someone mentioned. I just log on see if anyone needs help log off, but the sheer number of people unwilling to work together in an MMO is new to me.
All this means is that casuals are undedicated entitled prats who are un willing to learn for themselves or put in any effort
Also, if you're a casual, you won't LFG for HMs or top tier dngs so lighthearted, and can't complain if players who put more effort than you to reach those goals will exclude you from their guild/party/raid. I mean, it's how it should be.
Less effort and less competences = less rewards.
Also, Tera is not an MMO where different configurations are available and you can actually decide how 2 play your class - there's a right way of playing a class, and a wrong way, an average-low dps and a top dps configuration.
It's always the same crystals, gear rolls, glyphs, skills rotation, positioning, consumables, and if you do something different than that, given that are some little variables, you're just going to fail your role as either dps, tank or healer.
You have no excuses if you're wearing 4x pounding and have crit factor rolls, can't hold aggro as tank, if you attack at the front of the boss as dps, if you die every 5 secs as healer, if you spin death spiral twice or land a 2 secs OS, or if you don't even know what battle solution is - you're just going to slow the party if you're a dps, and make it wipe in a central role, and that ofc will [filtered] ppl off.
You just have to read a guide for 5 mins and you're set alas on the basic requirements, then you may have no experience but that can be fixed, if you're willing to learn tho. I've meet many ppl with wrong rolls and crystals saying "I feel good with this!" well then [filtered] ya, you deserve to get kicked
I'm not a pro myself, but I do accept suggestions and can honestly say I have a bit of experience, but if I have to get called "elitist" for trying to explain a mechanic to some1 who clearly didn't get it, then no thx get out of my raid.
