    Default Leaving Shroud

    Just when I thought I had seen it all. In the Shroud run I just finished the rogue decided he didn't want to finish so he threw out a Greater Teleport on all the melee surrounding the pit fiend while still at about 5-10%. When told this was a pretty noobish move, his response was, "'i tped out and tossed others the chance. safer than ddor. if someone took it that didnt want it, its neither my fault nor my concern.'"

    Please folks, if you don't want to complete the Shroud run for whatever reason, just use a Dim Door or Teleport yourself.

    wow

    Doing that in a group I'm running would be no less than a squelch and guild blacklist. That kind of behaviour can cause a wipe when one or two people click accept by accident.

    Just /death when Harry is at 8-10%. D-door is dangerous too (people can and do misclick it).

    /death is failsafe and can never impact another player (unless the group fails because of it, but really, that's not likely)

    That works too. I've never had an issue with someone misclicking D-door since they are usually thrown up in the back of the room and after the fight is over, but if other people have, yeah, then /death works fine too.

    The Greater Teleport was just unexpected and if you made a mistake, hey, no big deal really (well, sorta a big deal but at least admit you made a mistake). The response from this player, however, was simply amazing.

    D-Door misclicks can happen if a ****tard casts it mid-combat. Plus, there's the issue of D-Doors sometimes taking significant time to use (load screen and all) and thus causing players to be still in the instance when someone hits the altar.

    /death, on the other hand, is safe.

    Still, what an absolute tard. I'll be back in-game in a couple of weeks, and if anyone does that in any of my Shroud runs, they can expect me to send a /tell to every group leader I see them grouped with warning them that they might want to boot them.
    I don't have a zerging problem.

    I'm zerging. That's YOUR problem.

    recall works fine now...no reason not to use it.

    And you can do it after Harry is dead, completion isn't until someone hits the alter.

    I was thinking the same thing as I was reading this thread. Whay on earth was this person bailing before Harry died? The quest isn't over just because you kill him. Look at the **** objectives.

    Most people who bail as harry is dying have looked at the objectives. Its the people who don't know, or don't care, to wait to ckick the altar until everyone has left that drive that.

    Not saying I condone it, I can just see both sides. Especially considering the quality of a small number or people running the shroud these days. Besides, you can cast GT when harry is close to dead and click on it immediately after he dies. In that respect, GT is better than recalling, /death, or regular TP. There is no wait. I don't do it, but I can see why people would. I have been in shrouds where some darwinian reject clicks on the altar as the party leader is asking if anyone wants to leave. It only takes one idiot to click an altar. Not so much a problem with guild runs, but if even one pug is in the group

    People need to take responsiblity for their mistakes, and correct future actions...or they are not much better than cattle.

    That he would not own up to the mistake shows very bovine behavior.

    Invite him to your next shroud (warn everyone except him to put off looting till harry is dead in part five and no clicking the altar because you're going to...) target and cast a DD on top of every single chest as you end each part.

    What's the big deal?

    I mean, no one in there should be randomly interaction-clicking around at the time, so the chance of an Accept seems based solely on the inability to read. Not like it's a poorly placed ddoor or GT on a chest.

    You know what? If someone tosses a GT on you while you're fighting Harry and you go ahead and click "accept", I don't feel bad for you. Sure, the guy could have been more courteous... but his bad behavior doesn't excuse your idiocy (not speaking to any particular person here, just generally).

    I think its more to do with his reply and response afterwards then the actually casting of GT.
