Some ppl healing Demo intentionally??

lldt · January 2016

I was in an edemo earlier where someone was pointing straight at yellow when he was targeted, but he then moved so that the red path pointed to black and even stood there for a second until Demo charged. I've seen many cases where it looks like the person intentionally targeted black, but this would be the first where someone moved away from a perfectly centered yellow to do so.

i've seen players like that most of demo i've did, even if before the start there were someone explaining what to do but... nothing, should be trolls. Asking them does not work because they do not answer.
Ignorance sounds like an excuse, because it is easy to ask in chat for informations.
But... who knows.

It is more likely they are too stupid to figure out what to do. Also sometimes red line is invisible.

Maybe he/she was trying to run away from it? A lot of players don't even understand english to begin with, let alone demogorgon fight mechanic.

Thats why i only make demo with my guilde in 2x 5 man grps. Best way to farm demo constantly with gold rewards.

Well anyone can make a mistake, but I saw someone both throw into the black portal and also away from well many times..

Its like the system knows which player doesn't know what to do and gets confused the most and picks it =P .

Could be ignorance. Could be a troll. I assume you didn't ask him why he did so or tried to tell him to aim for yellow. Since you didn't ask, how are we supposed to know what was intentional and what was not?

He didn't reply.

I know sometimes it is ignorance and sometimes, due to lag or just people getting in the way/vision, you could have trouble targeting, but this one seemed like intentional targeting (it was perfectly lined up with yellow and then he moved to align to black and then waited). I was just wondering if anyone has an insight as to a possible reason why anyone would want to do this. I mean, being a troll here would just be a waste of your own time.

Maybe only my eyes tricked as i rotated my character but i had sometimes the feeling that the holy gate get replaced sometimes before he launch his charge attack.

The gates usually change slightly after he jumps back to center. Gotta pay attention. Regular goristro has a very simple pattern on where the gates will appear, so it's completely predictable from the beginning. Epic goristro is a little more annoying since there's only one portal at a time and if there's a pattern by the time you figure it out the fight's basically decided.

Otherwise, people may intentionally screw it up so their party will vote kick them out, saving them the trouble of either leaving and getting a queue ban; or exiting from the front door and just being stuck in the party while they solo around anywhere else waiting for either the instance to close or the party finally kicks them. Again to avoid the queue ban.

i have done a few, it was my mistake, and too slow to realized where i am standing, i was doing lot better on next few runs, staying away from black portals on walls.
if that was me last few week ago, then i apologized.

sometimes gates change color from yellow to black pretty quick.

It's grazilaxx that's to blame. he suppose to be super brainiac but he was forgot to tell us to use the YELLOW runes to dmg Goristro. he only said, "use the runes to dmg goristro". i imagine new players don't know the black rune heals.

If you cannot see the gates, or have some latency issue, just stand near well, throw him near it. It will usually be ok.

Avoid throwing any other location. at least there you can continue to burn, as he is in the radius of range dps.

If you throw it on the opposite wall, no one can reach him..

missing a yellow even by a little is WORSE then throwing him near the portal wall.

If you actually talk to the Grazilaxx NPC in the instance, he specifically tells you the difference between yellow and black.

Of course, most of us are too impatient for this sort of thing. Including me. But it is there. The game does make an honest effort to provide you with complete information on how the encounter works and to provide you a few minutes time to read up. I'm not sure if making the cutscenes longer and more detailed would do much. People would impatiently overlook it either way.

blah.. ive never seen so much hand holding and there will still people come on here and say its too hard.

they even have specific skirms showing you the portals, the enemy types and the throwing mechanism.

Frankly its down RIGHT insulting how much they show you what you have to do..

thats right.. we shouldnt have to be TOLD that much.
