Quotes from Puggers. The Best, The Worst.

[Mhykke]

Leader: You can't play the game from the toilet, noob.

I play on a laptop, and let me just say, I've proven that wrong multiple times.

Against my better judgment I get a group going for stk - hard.

Things are going pretty poorly, as expected. At the part in part 2, where you have the large elemental near the river key chest, the pure bard starts to run down there while the other party members are off doing god knows what. I tell him wait for the party with me, because death lies that way. He runs down there, anyways,(its a pug why wouldnt he?) gets all the aggro, and start running back. Luckily, the party had finally regrouped on me, and we start heading down there. We kill his mess, and he has the audacity to say "And you were saying?". Right, you just soloed it didn't you.

Of course, its a pug, so the story doesn't end there. We start doing part 3. The bard runs off as usual. Another guy follows him. I start doing the quest, and the rest follow me. The bard dies, of course. Starts yelling at us over his mic, where are we and why did we spilt up. I tell him we are doing the quest. He then yells at me about how many times he has done STK. Really? Why were you over there getting killed, and we are already at the fire traps? The guy following him says(we had words before because he kept running off by himself dying), I thought we were suppose to follow the bard. I say its customary, and respectful to follow the leader. Of course, he has a snide remark about that.

I just don't get why PUGing is so hard a concept. Don't run off unless you're a badass. If you die, because you ran off have the decency to say "My bad. I thought I was a badass, but I'm actually just full of fail." Don't expect me to come get you, because I won't. Stick with the leader if you don't know the quest! Don't blame others when you die, because you "thought" you knew what you were doing.

A couple of classics from Sarlona Korthos this morning.
A new player asked why they couldn't cast any of their Sorceror spells. When asked what their Charisma was they replied 10. Unfortunately that wasn't the worst part. After being told to reroll 3 other players then suggested he could try to melee his way to level 4 and then raise his Charisma to 11 at level up so he could cast lvl 1 spells. After being told the importance of the stat to his class he went off to reroll.
2 minutes later a player complained about playing rogues as everyone just ran through the traps anyway. A nominee for King of Korthos jumps in to say you needed to be a pure Rogue with 18 INT to do traps after level 4 anyway.

Ahh the joys of the 100 point favour grind.

And you wonder why new players end up wtih dodgy builds.
