    Default Shroud Griefers

    Ok, See a pattern forming.

    You don't get your large in part 4 so you then click the portal right away before any of the casters have shrined.

    This has to stop.

    If you guys know who is doing this please PM me names.

    PS: Any group that this happens in that i'm part of will not have me helping out in part 5.

    it's only a problem if the party sucks and doesn't know how to kite while casters/clerics fill up in the pools... the fool that did it will probably die anyway, but as long as somebody can kite...

    So people that know what they are doing should work harder.

    Not thanks I don't support cruddy players. They do not deserve the completion.

    People used to try and grief us by running through the middle of part two.

    That didn't work out for the griefers.

    After part 4, I would change where people stand when they are ready to go through...you guys gather right in front of the portal, right? We gather over by the rest shrine until everyone's ready. That would single out who's getting too close to the portal before the group is ready.

    So your proposed solution is to follow the GRIEFERS footsteps and screw over the rest of party along with him.

    PM me the names, I'm always interested in who not to run the shroud with.
    Thanks for the long time forum user purge of Aug '10 (Sarcasm for those who don't get it)

    Default ***

    *** is going on out there? Where are these people coming from???

    Bad enough they are not prepared to run the shroud or anything else as they've been riding the coat tails of so many people to get to the shroud, but now they are clicking the portals because they are ****ed?

    This is just silly.

    Yup, this is why we are building up the Archangels and I'm sticking to people I know again and staying away from pugs, unless it's a low risk quest that I can solo if I have to (just have to find someone to build me a toon I can solo with... .)

    Really bad form and it's getting worse.

    It would be quicker to recall and reform with a group of competent players then wait for all the casters to use the pools. Now with everyone having a ton of teleport rods from the birthday event you dont even need to waste time recalling

    Problem is nowadays, there is such a stark dichotomy of players out there.

    I guess this is why I see guys like Gax, Impaqt and so many others that I respect, creating teams from only their friends list or filling primarily with friends and then opening up the LFM to people they recognize or have been told about.

    Yup, that would have been an idea to recall and reform so the offending person lost out completely, but what if you don't know who that offender was.

    Just best not to pug anymore if it matters... sad, but true.

    Oh come on. If you really want to grief shroud part 4, grease people off of the platform.

    As someone who runs a shroud or 2 almost every night I have to say I have not seen this happen one time yet. often I wind up with many random puggers in the groups as well.

    Worst thing I've seen lately is someone who was Waiting for a ride but neglected to tell anyone.. We started without him. He then tried to make the run and get in.. Of course, he didnt make it... So he recalled out, then zoned back in so we all lost the 10% no re-entry bonus.....

    Wasnt one of the runs I was leading.....
