So I put up a shroud

[petegunn]

The server seemed pretty quiet tonight so a cleric friend of mine talked me into forming a shroud . No problem i thought how hard could it be , we filled in semi quick time not bad for off peak timings I took anyone who hit up my lfm
My lfm was a relaxed shroud nice and easy completion we'd a few quality players in the group so I thought all would be good .

(part1) No real trouble had two casters one pretty new to playing the shroud but other than that all was good .

(part2) Usual brief all meet in south west and we'll take it from there , this is where things went all pete tong. Whilst trying to explain the tactic (one person only go and see who we got) and type or communicate in party chat who the four mobs are , we'd three people up flitting around when only one was needed . No probs if you know what you're doing all I got to see with reference to what we had was "devil" no others then one imbecile pulled the mobs early before the green light had been called.
We smashed them after a bit of a tangle and reset but while we where recovering sp and what not same guy pulls them again without waiting on orders .

Long story short after two resets we were third time lucky.

(part3) No real dramas .

(part 4) Brief explanation of what was required couple of webs nothing spectacular. Guess what! we never got the chance to get cc down this certain individual steams straight in and pulls the mobs from the center .No biggy mobs went down fast and we roll the fiend up after 2.1 rounds .

(part 5) No real drama until the pitter was nearly dead i called for a dd to let those that wanted to get out out and categorically stated not to hit the alter no sooner had I said that when you know who activates and quest complete .
Excuse given i can hear you most of the time

Too all who where involved thanks for helping me out except the guilty party .

People beware of this person and his guild !

[The10man]

PM as well please

[DagazUlf]

Please toss me ye olde' PM with the relevants please.

[Delt]

Mmm, guildwise, that was quite the varied PUG, if I recall. Sometimes "free" isn't worth it :p

PM the info, I'm curious.

[Robi3.0]

I would like a PM as well.

[ariel7]

Send me a PM w/ the name & guild, please?Forum rules prevent a naming of names publicly... but Pete may be wiling to PM the particulars.

I certainly am willing to out the person!

[ariel7]

Petegunn was being kind-hearted in his descriptions. Everytime instructions would be started this person took it as a cue to go straight off to someplace different and make things hairy. Very, very frustrating when one person continuously makes something a pita.

[Purgatory]

I certainly am willing to out the person!

well send me a pm

[Rayzorlew]

Who s this great pileon you speak of so fondly?

Probably the same guy who hit the part 5 portal before either of us shrined on our clerics the other day.

No one ever confessed, lol.

[Bartikus]

PM Please. Another to be added to "the list". It must've been spectacular to get on your bad side...

[sirdanile]

pulling mobs straight out from pt3-portal is kinda status quo, isnt it?

shrouds are boringly predictable as it is, even with jokes such as "save the kobold(who havent spawned)".. or someone crazy pulling centre in pt2 just for a laugh(if 3-4 ppl in the shroud knows his **** its going to be oki anyway, no?

hitting the altar in pt5 is a sign of total lack of respect.. but I also think you can mention if your going to jump out when pt5 is done(in 98.99% this is the case anyway).

edit: I wouldn´t be surprised if this was a refugee from the keeper servers.. remember a guy named rock[insert suffix] used to this all the time(exept for the pt5 blooper).. some whined at him for it "and wouldnt play with him again" *sob sob*.. but most of us liked the attitude, and soon his examples became kinda standard even in pugs (unless the pug was a horrible setup ofc).

[Missing_Minds]

I'll take that pm of name and guild as well please.

[anatoli11]

PM as well please

[bartcom2000]

.....dude, lame...... pete sry to hear the @$$tard...

General rule of thumb, it's ok to play around on the forums or in chat, but don't screw with peoples runs..... not cool....:(

Its a great compliment to all who where involved that we where able to pull this shroud of without wiping because of said individual . But no these weren't the plans that I had in mind for my shroud .

Its all well and good if you set up a guild fun run with pugs not in the know , but this was far from it , all I wanted was a nice easy completion and for some pugs to get their loots with minimum fuss . We even allowed a monk in who was level 15 ^^ j/k

Individual proved that there is an I in team .

[Grosbeak07]

I'm late to the party, but I'll take a PM. Been a lot of troubles in the shroud lately.

Sorry to hear about your run... Sadly this has been happening more and more often.... usually because someone wants to complete as fast as possible and move on, but due to so many not being on, due to the mod delay, they are forced to join random PuGs, instead of running with like minded people. This means more and more groups having at least one of these people in them, even the "teaching PuGs". Worse, there are even some who join to grief the party, just out of boredom.
Had a very similar run with a player who didn't speak english... "join Invite guild Me want I" and no voice chat. Repeatedly this guy caused similar problems... At least until the clerics took control.... After several issues, they stopped healing and rezing him until times when he couldn't do any harm. I normally wouldn't condone such actions, but the guy was more dangerous than the mobs. and with people wanting to leave before completion, the only way for the party leader to make sure the alter wasn't clicked before people were out was to let him die when the "harry" was at 5%... after everyone who wanted to leave was out, then he raised him.

Sadly until the new mod is released, expect more of this. (and possibly after too)

[Thrudh]

Probably the same guy who hit the part 5 portal before either of us shrined on our clerics the other day.

No one ever confessed, lol.


We had someone do this to us last night... Pretty annoying...

[Thrudh]

Oh wait I don't play DDO anymore.

Awesome! +1 rep!

[Pwesiela]

Yeah, PM, I pug too much to ignore it...

[cdemeritt]

Oh yeah... forgot to add PM me plz.

[Pyromaniac]

someone crazy pulling centre in pt2 just for a laugh(if 3-4 ppl in the shroud knows his **** its going to be oki anyway, no?

When someone pulls the center 'by accident' in part 2 reguarly, they won't get accepted to any of my shrouds in the future. Sometimes you end up with a sub-optimal group in shrouds and this type of thing can slow down part 2, make clerics start using consumables, or if its a really bad group wipe the party.

I used to have to say "don't run in the middle of the next part" because people who 'accidentally' pulled the middle would say I didn't tell them not to. Now I have to tell the same people "don't check the mobs from the south" because at least once every 6 runs someone hits the middle in part 2 while trash mobs are not dead. Yes you can check the mobs from the south, but its amazing how many people mess that up.

That's the kind of thing that makes putting together pug raid groups not worth the bother. If it happened more often, I'd give up on leading any pug shroud raids and go with guild only and shortman it if necessary.

[Oeuf]

pm me also please. I do a lot of Pugging, and I like to avoid the Riff Raff and trouble makers.

:cool:

[gizmos199]

thank you peet. i agree with what you posted . peace out hommie

[centurian]

I really find it most important that If you dont have a clue as what to do,just say so.To not speak up and let someone cool enough to lead a run in shroud like Pete,who will tell you .Sad to hear that Pete,you make DDO fun.

[weyoun]

Awesome! +1 rep!

Hey you know I get a lot of infraction points telling idiots like you to shut the **** up! Shut the **** up Turd.

[Syriania]

[Reversion]

I'll join in on the list, PM please.

[Montrose]

Some shrouds pop the ddoors early, when Harry still has 5% or so left, and people get while the getting is good. Cuts down on accidents.

But, yeah, sounds like the guy was an ass-hat.

[Vivanto]

Can you gimme the name of this hun hottie pete hausen?

[petegunn]

I can certainly hook you up with the guilty party vivy any Hungarian hotties you'll have to tie up with Ay

Well.. I can understand why you think like this in a bad pug(as the case was).. or if the guildies on your group are on their wrong classes and the dps and self-reliance is lacking in the party... aka sub-par group.

What you dont lack here on the US-server is ppl who doesnt have good leadership... but sometimes even that can be a bit ---eurmm... I mean in one of my, so far, 6 pugshroud completions we had like 8 rangers with mintus and we still slowpoked instead of just rushing it like you guys, so exellently, do on normal q´s ... "less talk, more rush" should have applied in that case...

[Lewcipher]

Hey Pete PM with this info please

Does it rhyme with Maconia?

[Olgren]

Probably the same guy who hit the part 5 portal before either of us shrined on our clerics the other day.

That's really funny, I was in a pug shroud and someone from your guild did that for part 4. The clerics were not happy with him.

[Rayzorlew]

Part 4??:confused:
They must have been trying to give "MAX BUFFS."
Freedoms to the WF, poisons to the WF/Monks, True seeings on the casters, and spawn screen for all!:rolleyes:

[Braegan]

That is really funny! Because basically saying "hurry the @#$% up" and screwing someone out of a completion they didn't want are exactly the same thing!!! Thanks for your insight. :rolleyes:
