    Default Useless healers

    We decided that we would do a vod, and since its such a hard raid we got as many healers as we could get




    And we still all almost died, useless healers :P



    Best grease ever.

    Um. There's an easy explanation for this. It's called the Bystander Effect.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bystander_effect

    To explain, let me copy and paste a section.

    The bystander effect is a social psychological phenomenon that refers to cases where individuals do not offer help in an emergency situation when other people are present. The probability of help has in the past been thought to be inversely proportional to the number of bystanders; in other words, the greater the number of bystanders, the less likely it is that any one of them will help.


    Indeed, it is not the fault of the healers individually but the healers as a group. Because one will naturally think that the other will heal, it is highly likely that almost all chose to fight instead.

    EDIT: Besides, your problem was the lack of a trap monkey.

    It's cuz that prick Davlin cast Grease, and we all slid into the traps. We were doing fine until then...

    Best use of grease ever.


    Of course, since he died, the Grease disappeared and it wasn't a COMPLETE wipe.

    Hey at least clerics now know what it feels when they say "stay in through the blades!" in the shroud
    Devs: Thanks for making Druids available to VIPs without the pack. This more than anything, has made me want to buy the pack.

    Depending on circumstances, but I think this was a case of, "Just because one person can dig a post hole in 20 minutes, doesn't mean that 20 people can dig one in sixty seconds".

    It was more of a case of everyone standing in a cubby to avoid traps, caster spams grease till he dies, those of us that dont fall, slide into traps
