I had what was possibly the strangest PUG experience I’ve had to date when I was on my hunter today. I queued up for the random and went mining in Icecrown as I waited.<\/p>\n
So finally, after about 13 minutes, up comes my random, which is already in progress. No big, I figure, at least it’ll be a faster two Emblems of Frost than normal, right?<\/p>\n
I port in and the first thing I see is the party leader saying “OH NOES WE LOST 1100 DPS” and someone else saying “QQ”.<\/p>\n
Whatever, I figure they wiped on the second boss or something.<\/p>\n
So I hit Aspect of the Cheetah and run on down.<\/p>\n
Problem 1: There’s Hadronox trash.<\/p>\n
So I’m like “Dudes, there’s trash here at the second boss.”<\/p>\n
“QQ”<\/p>\n
… okay, so do they– wait a minute. The ground is shuddering. In fact, I recognize that animation. That’s Anub’arak’s spike animation. Not only have these guys not waited for me and pulled the last boss, but I’m subjected to his mechanics and there’s TRASH between me and the group.<\/p>\n
What the flipping hell is going on here?<\/p>\n
My group informs me I should stay above for my free badges. Not being entirely convinced, by a group of people who appear to have deliberately bugged the second boss, that I WILL receive badges, etc, if I don’t participate in the fight, I consider my options.<\/p>\n
After about 10 seconds or so, I pop an Invisibility Potion that I still had on me and run past the trash, jump down the hole and am at least put into combat by being on the staircase leading down to Anub’arak’s area. And there are still spikes trying to impale me. :P<\/p>\n
The fight ends, I get 1 Emblem of Triumph, 2 Emblems of Frost and the gold I normally do. I, like all the others, hit greed on the Orb and disenchant on the epic and the blue.<\/p>\n
15 seconds later, I am the proud new owner of a Frozen Orb, an Abyss Crystal and a Dream Shard.<\/p>\n
I put the “QQ” person on ignore, as well as the group leader. I honestly don’t ever want to run into these people ever again.<\/p>\n
But I will admit, that was a hilariously small amount of effort for my daily random.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
