Here’s just a list of fail groups from the past few days, because things have gotten quite ridiculous for me using the LFG.
1.) I queue up and get Heroic FoS. Not too bad right? WRONG! As soon as Blizzard teleports me in, I am conveniently right next to a pack of 5 mobs, who immediately kill me. Not even enough time to use Ice Block or Invisimage. Great. I should have known something was up, though, when I realized that we were only marginally partway through the instance when I had to fill in for another DPS. Said realization came to light when we promptly wiped on the mobs that killed me.
I’ve NEVER wiped on mobs in H: FoS. Ever. A person or two die? Sure. A full wipe? Nope. I promptly left the group and switched to my Paladin.
2.) I log in and immediately get heals for H: HoR. I winced, thinking that things could easily be very painful. I log in, and it’s at the beginning for everyone. Not too bad. I shudder as my tank barely has 30k health buffed. We made it through a few trash pulls, but lack of coordination on the part of the DPS and the tank on who to take down first led to everyone taking massive damage, and my poor little old single target healing Paladin self couldn’t save anyone. Oh, and did I mention that the Warlock SS’ed himself? And guess who got kicked out of the group? That’s right. Me.
3.) I queue up for another instance and get Tank for H: VH. I quite drastically outgeared most of the rest of the group, which is not a good thing. We get the shadow dude. People who get void shifted don’t kill the guys shooting shadow bolts everywhere. The healer dies, then I die. Then I get called a bad tank. Lolwut? Luckily we managed to make it through the rest of the instance, but I was first or second on DPS and damage done for almost every fight–including boss fights. Oh, and it took almost an hour.
4.) On my Priestess (who finally hit 80, yay!) I was healing Zul’Drak, and the tank would never wait for me. Ever. For anything. Twice, he ran ahead of me while I was either picking a flower, drinking water, or healing someone else, and start whacking on the next pack of mobs. If he had been a tank with 38k+ health, maxed defenses, and was NOT still wearing heirloom gear as if it’s the shit, then I’d be much more ok with his behavior–but he wasn’t, he was just stupid and annoying and died multiple times because I refused to try to heal someone who ran out of range of me. I don’t heal through stupidity.
