PvE PuGs -_- #woossaa

[Lady_Pebbles]

Lets get this straight... This is NOT a hate topic. It is a discussion.

Back on topic though.... I hope that as more people get the hang of things, there will be less issues in PUGs. However, considering the fact that on elite Tower PUGs were also having the same issues... Then I believe it won't really change. If players would just listen, or find a way to work together better.. Then perhaps it would work out.

Ugh... Then again maybe StS should just allow us to host maps already! Then these problems could be avoided better.

Pick up group, or randoms, call it whatever you want :P

Oh, thanks. I learned something new!

[Dragonrider023]

Also PuG tend to quit even on normal map in middle of game. If you quit, then what is the point of joining the game in first place?

That's why all I do is solo, my 15m cash pile says I'm doing fine without any people holding me back. I started soloing cause I'm a rouge and I can outtank 99% of warriors out there if I'm ganna waste a ton of pots its ganna be to my benefit.

^ agreed. Good team>solo>pugs usually. Which is why I do solo farming too, since elite arcanum grounds.
Sometimes, if you can't find a good group, soloing is recommended for rogues who can afford pots, you just need to practice the map a few times.

The worst has to be wt4. I can't tell you the number of times people just go running off and attracting more mobs. Or someone does something dumb and instead of facing a manageable size, you are overwhelmed by the sheer numbers. Then they give up and quit after they die. Also what is irritating is when you are killing yourself trying to take down some boss. And some one runs away and resets the boss more then once. I am thinking of joining a guild cause most PuGs are getting frustrating in hopes to play with some quality people.

My twink warrior has a build to PvP and PvE in. Its not impossible.. X.x

A twink is not an end game character. That adds nothing to the discussion about elite farming. When I level up against scrubs on regular maps, then a PvP build is actually what you want. It works great against enemies. In end game farming, the two builds, the tank warrior nd the PvP DPS warrior are by far completely different. I mean almost entirely.

I loled at this... in wt4 you are mesnt to pull massive mobs to finish quickly. Any time i go there I'll pull all there is to help us finish faster. However if the tank cant handle it and die, then I'll quit without even feeling bad about it

Back on topic, being a sorc I am so jealous of rogues being able to take down bosses quickly on solo... whenever i solo im really happy until hitting the boss... so just stick to guild parties

I can't stand players like you. You're the kind that everyone is talking about in this thread. Just do whatever you want and once you get everyone killed you quit.

Hope I never run into you in game.

You are the worst type of player. I hate dps classes that pull in the first place. But you're even worse. You kill your party and bail. What's your ign so I can put you on ignore lol. Hope I never run into you.

Its easy to rush in, then run away and hide behind someone else while they take all of the damage. Then blame them if it doesn't work. And players like you are the reason why I run solo most of the time.

if my twink can use that build for both PvP and PvE then it can also do it at cap so yes it adds to the discussion.

My only question is, why are you running pve with your twink?

Its fun! Besides, I can farm some dungeons for gold a lil or even drops to merch with.

Still PuGs at twink lvl aren't that bad to me (oddly enough). Im not sure if its worse at twink lvl or at cap for everyone else. Is it??? *curious* lol

[Rollo]

Fair enough. I'd guess pugs are better at lower level because the content is easier. The only pugs I come across that are terrible are elite runs. Because players actually have to play well or get destroyed.

[Lady_Pebbles]

Yeah, thats how I think of it as well. Problem is, this game seems to be headed ibto the PL direction of needing Plat to compete or even finish certain levels with elixirs. Right now, non-plat elixirs don't even last for half -of- HALF an elite maps. Its really money consuming. Especially when all the real free TrialPlay and W3i promotions are done & the purchase ones are all thats left. So frustrating... I mean if I didn't want to pay through the app, wth makes you think I'd want tobpay a 3rd party?! Lol nurr.

Oh and speaking of the elixirs in PUGs... Its annoying when players with elixirs pull other mobs in elite maps. Just because you got a freaken combo pack or elixirs with more dmg and dmg reduction, doesn't mean the rest of us can handle them all at once!!! Geeze.
