    Default Run out of componets

    Prepare to get squelched.


    So i hit a lfm the other night. Was for normal bastion of power. I figure sure no prob go in on my fvs solo a maralith no big deal i do this all the time. I like helping people get flagged for tod. I get in and the party has gotten itself killed. I then realize i am out of holy water and raise dead scrolls. I only carry Resurrection on my fvs i have limited spell slots and that plus scroll is usually enough. I tell the leader this on realizing it and think ok i will go get some holy water no big deal. I go to hit the reform and find that i have been squelched. Now honestly i really don't care much but i do find it amusing that some one would black list me over what is basically not paying attention to spell components. I should mention they where not far in the quest at all.

    You should be prepared to quest when you hit an LFM. If you're not then you darn well better make sure to teleport real quick like to get components/scrolls before the party starts to wonder where you are.

    If you hop into the quest and say "oops I forgot X" then I'd tell you to buy it in the DDO store. If you refused then yup, you'd get the kick.

    It's your job to ensure your character is prepared for a quest.

    If someone jumps in to save your butt... you say thank you.
    If they make an error - you say thank you for trying.
    Getting angry over a small error made by someone who joined late just to help you is irrational and immature.

    My quote was not meant to address someone who jumps in late and tries to save a wiped party.

    This may sound extreme, but maybe you should do the old-skool thing and drag your spell components to a visible hotbar (or at least the important ones). Or spend a ton of $$$ on omnispell components

    So... are the omni spell components already out?!?!?! (From my above post I obviously didn't think so, and will have to edit it!)

    U13 is Very Soon, that's when they're released. And you can buy normal spell components already as mentioned above.

    You would also not ALREADY BE DEAD in the quest. Plus, SPELL COMPONENTS. I mean, seriously, they run out.

    Personally, I almost always pre ship buff, take the quest and get to the area before I join a PUG LFM, especially when it's almost full, and ALWAYS when it says IP, so I get you. But at the same time, SPELL COMPONENTS. They run out. I buy them in stacks of 1000 and never pay attention until they run out. It's just that simple. Of course, except for mushrooms and powdered saffron, it's usually not an issue. Man, Divine Punishment takes a toll!

    On the plus side... Turbine's next release is supposed to have a new universal ingredient!!!!!!!!!!

    WOOOOOT!!!!!

    This is just horrible / things happen you forget to check whatever It's no big deal ... just get them and come back / I'm sure it's never happened to you has it ??? get real and if you do buy them from the store good for you but I'm not wasting TP on something so stupid as components

    But squelching someone for a simple "oops, I forgot something, I'm willing to go get it and then rez you dead folks." I think OP was very kind to be willing to help out a wiped party that still had it's LFM up. If the party had decided they just wanted to release and not bother, they could have said so. But instead, willing to help OP gets squelched. I agree with previous poster, sounds like they were mad and *hurt over wiping to me.

    It is every caster's responsibility to make sure that they have enough spell components to cast their spells in a quest, but it's also the rest of the party's responsibility to not get slaughtered while you're on your way to hop in.

    I'm entirely willing to forgive other people their occasional boneheaded moves as I hope that they'll forgive mine.

    Hmmm wow, what no one has ever run out of spell components before? I carry the same thing on my fvs, one spell of resurecction, and then I carry scrolls of raise dead and resurrection. If I was the leader, I would have asked you if it was not too much trouble to buy it from the ddo store, the components, and if not then when we reformed I would have expected you to grab the spell comps from the vendor right there in Amrath by the bank. To squelch you for it? Sounds like someone was ****ed from a wipe, and if their lil ego couldnt handle that so they had to squelch you, guess who's the lucky one?
