Okay. I’m going to sound obnoxious. I’m going to sound elitist. But you know what? I don’t particularly care.<\/p>\n
People need to learn to play their toons before they group with other people.<\/p>\n
Let me say that in terms the typical WoW player will understand: l2play!<\/strong><\/p>\n What brought this on? I’m glad you asked. :P<\/p>\n I’ve been levelling a druid and my brother’s been levelling a hunter. Now, because my brother doesn’t raid four or five nights a week, he’s jumped ahead of me and is waiting for me to hit 71 before he comes back and works through the obscene amount of XP needed to advance. I was something like, 67 when he hit 71. I’m now 70. So I thought I’d go tank or heal Utgarde Keep. It’s an instance I’ve tanked before (albeit as a paladin) and healed before (again, as a paladin) so it’s not like I’m not aware of what’s going on, right? Right. And hey, I have like, 13k health in bear form, so that’s sweet.<\/p>\n So I went to LFG and got in for a last boss kill in Utgarde as the tank. No problem. We cleared from the second boss(es) to Ingvar and all went fine. I popped Survival Instincts and Barkskin appropriately, kept up mangle and demoralizing roar… I felt pretty good about myself.<\/p>\n I went back to LFG and got invited to a pug as a tank.<\/p>\n Of course, it took 20 minutes for even ONE OTHER PERSON to come to the stone, but anyways. There was a 68 disc priest (… who was gemmed<\/em> for spirit and spellpower, when his dual spec is shadow, who ALSO hadn’t assigned 2 talent points), a 73 hunter, a 71 hunter, a 70 mage and myself.<\/p>\n I should have known that the huntards were going to cause a wipe. I should have known. But because I’m a hunter and not entirely a huntard, I figured it was all good.<\/p>\n Wrong.<\/p>\n Idiots had their pets on AGGRESSIVE and nearly wiped us by pulling right off the bat. We DID wipe on a pack just inside the entrance because, rather than, you know, MISDIRECT ME or FEIGN or ANYTHING, the huntards both managed to grab aggro while I was stunned, then died or feigned, and then the priest ate it.<\/p>\n The priest who, by the way, never assigned those talent points I pointed out hadn’t been spent.<\/p>\n So I was like, okay. That’s their one wipe before I log the hell off. And then one of the huntards was like “wtf tank”<\/p>\n And I’m all “Excuse me?”<\/p>\n “lol jk jk man scool”<\/p>\n ><<\/p>\n So we move on and we’re in the room with the proto-drakes… and the goddamn nub 71’s cat goes and grabs two packs while I’m tanking three mobs.<\/p>\n Wipe.<\/p>\n And I was out of there.<\/p>\n So, to the idiot hunters: Pets on passive, growl OFF.<\/p>\n To the idiot priest: l2gem and spec properly, you moron.<\/p>\n I may just quest my way to 80. This is just painful.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Okay. I’m going to sound obnoxious. I’m going to sound elitist. But you know what? I don’t particularly care.
