    Clerics who just afk literally in the middle of a boss fight, then come back once the fight is over.

    You forgot to add in because BB was interrupted and since it wasn't some OP bloodpaint reliant squad people who actually needed heals weren't getting it so everyone died.

    ... and then afterwards said cleric raged at squad for a wipe and death that was the cleric's fault to begin with or gets pissed when they find themselves booted.

    I've discovered a new, unfortunate, sad pet peeve recently;

    - When a Sin chooses stealth through the dungeon and reach the bosses sitting there and waiting, while the rest of the squad has to fight off the mobs to clear their way through.

    So much for working as a team...

    This happened in one of my squads. Luckily I was lead, so when I asked the sin if he planned to come back and help us clear and he didn't reply, I booted him. xD

    Also annoying when you start clearing BH, and get it 3/4 cleared before one of the members bothers to enter.

    when pwi invalidates old good gears with more and more powerful ones, creating a chaos of competition to see who can pay $ and get this new awesome gear first. then a few months later those get invalidated as well.

    ie:
    wings of cloudcharger<matchless wings<heaven ravager
    r9<r9r<r9rr
    ...

    That progression made me so angry.

    Honestily, the thing I remember being ired the most about, was when you go to click an NPC, and right that second some person rides up to them on a mount and you end up clicking on them instead, thus run foward to the spot you clicked (and into something like a mailbox). And that's bareily even 'gameplay' related. 'x3

    This. And....!!

    When a sin "accidentally" aggro mobs, runs near you like they want help or something. Stealths. Mobs find a new target. Runs at you (Doesn't matter if you attacked or healed, FF mobs auto aggros to next target for some reason).
    Death. >.>

    Also when squads don't understand that people have lives outside of pwi.

    Me (the cleric): brb
    Random DD #1: Lets go clear hall
    Everyone stupidly follows. Squadwipes.
    Random DD #2: Where is the cleric? God ffs fail cleric QQQQQQQQQQ.
    Me 5-10 minutes later after doing something maybe important: back...

    Well this is more funny then a pet peeve but I hate when people like to blame fail pulls on an afk cleric that said they were going afk for a bit.

    Sins who don't rib strike.

    Especially on things like WS advanced bosses or TT bosses where a BM/Sin is tanking or the barb is a little low on hp. Rib strike is a pretty decent support skill. I've seen 9k hp sins die to Snake without it, and 7k hp sins tank the entire thing with it. Used to be even worse back in Nirvana days when you'd see 4 sins all slowly dropping to the boss one by one without a single RS between the lot.

    Also sins who say "I wont be much help, sins are pretty useless in delta". -.- A good sin in delta contributes to the squad a great deal. If you're "useless" in delta it's because you're not putting in any effort.

    I love sins who rib strike. I hate sins that rib strike over one of my level 100 skills, even when I tell them not to.

    Personal pet peeve:

    When you have a very good, rainbow FC squad (let's say 80-90 or 85-95) and someone asks for lead and invites their 10x sin to clear it with us.

    I would much rather run the entire thing as a squad than follow someone killing everything. If I wanted to have the dungeon cleared, I'd clear it with my own sin. b:surrender

    Why the rage? It's a draining emotion.

    +1, I can kill it with my wizard or use a sin or ask one of my numerous sin friends to give me a hand or buy exp rooms if I want it cleared in a second, when someone who has a 100 sin with g13 daggers wants to invite it to squad to clear I just am like f:gross

    This is also a pet peeve of mine. And I'd leave the squad because of it.

    And the many who want to glitch bubble boss. I always refuse to do it and you won't believe how many people get surprised the cleric wants to do the boss normally. Just ridiculous. If you can't do that boss as a cleric, you should just quit and play a DD now. b:bye

    If the tank starts a large pull but the archer/sin grab a mob or two as the pull starts, don't stop and help them, especially if you're the cleric. It always happens to me in Seat especially. I start a pull and the first group gets dagger thrown as I run by (**** it, they're a sin, they have bp) so I keep pulling. 10 mobs, 20 mobs, 25 mobs, stop, invoke, roar, and... realize I'm the only one there because my cleric, bm, and 2 other DDs stopped to stun and spam heal the sin who pulled 2 mobs and couldn't just bring them along.

    People who pull the Aba boss. You have 30 seconds before he self buffs and starts in on the heal+regen cycle and you want to waste 20 of it pulling back to a bb because your cleric or squad can't walk? The boss only has 1m hp, almost any squad can kill it in 30 seconds (have seen almost full caster squads drop it in about 20 seconds). Don't pull. Follow your barb in. If your cleric sets up bb and insists you pull to them I suggest you kick them for not helping.

    Warsong final boss, people who spread out. His adds need to be killed fast and the spawn on players. If you're not standing near each other then people have to travel to kill the mobs. Similarly, when you start the boss approach as a group. There's always the barb who runs way ahead and aggros the final Warsong boss and the mob spawns on him and takes us 10 seconds to reach the mob, or the sin dagger throws while we're still spread out, or the casters hand back as the boss is started and the mob spawns way behind us.

    So. Flippin'. True.

    Gather together as if you want to start a moshpit, orgy, suffocate the person in the middle.

    It doesn't help to spread out or "push/silence" the adds. b:angry

    C'mon. Aba looks weird. It probably has to do with pronunciation, rather than an accurate abbreviation. Aba seems as if it would put emphasis on the A, making it sound like a-buh, rather than ah-bah. Or whatever. **** if I know, I'm tired.

    Tho I soloed anything since I first started out on the german server I kinda was save from such nasty squad failures.

    But the thing that is most annoying in my opinion is when I help someone either with phoenix valley or fc and I say 1000000 times before that they should just stand by and don't do anything. So I pull together large groups of mobs and prepare myself to perform arma and stuff...just a few moments before I start dishing out my arma my fellow squad member just casts heals on me or dishs out aoes...instant death is the consequence.

    I swear I could slap them in the face anytime that happens. RAGE!!!!

    EDIT: The worst things for me are actually NW experiences.

    Imagine you are in a nation fight while your team is full while fighting against ~12 of the other team. You (me) the barb just grabs the flag and ofc the goal of NW is to bring the flag to a specific point. But nearly anytime in any nation when I grab the flag I need to bring it to the spot myself without any friggin help. No cleric, no archer, not even ppl that would keep the enemys away from me.

    So many times nearly the whole enemy squad gathered around me and ofc killed me (if more then 8 full r9r2 ppl that's really no miracle). Then I always think to myself...if all the enemys are attacking me, WHAT ARE MY FRIGGIN NATION MATES ARE DOING MEANWHILE!!!!!!! Remembere 20 against 12..sometimes even less enemys...

    Honestly that makes me rage so much I would prolly **** and delete all the chars from the ppl involved in this for massive extreme failure. They are not allowed to play anymore in my opinion and are to be banned forever.

    If I lose because of my own failure then everything is perfectly fine but if I lose due to the failness and stupidity of others...I could just kill em.

    Another thing is when there are more then 2 Archers just standing beside me while I carry the flag...do you think I get even a single elven alacrity? No sir! NO SIR! That would make things tooooo FRIGGIN easy I guess!

    I hate it when people don't listen when they're told to do something or not to do something. Or when they don't know their role. I did an FB29 for a sin using my wizard and cleric. He was told to stay back and let me tank on my wizard. When he didn't listen, I left my wizard behind and he complained that I wasn't attacking. You want me to attack, let me do my job.

    I've also been watching faction as members were doing dungeon runs with randoms and they were complaining about a cleric using wellspring only or DDing. I ended up going along (at a lower level than the cleric they had) and healed. She turned around and left after saying "Looks like I'm not needed here". Of course you're not needed, you don't know how to listen or heal properly! It's sad when a lower level cleric heals better.

    Also, you want to be healed or ressed, make sure you're doing your job. If your job in that particular squad is to be a DD, then DD. If you don't know how to DD properly and you keep stealing and dying, don't blame me. It's also a pain when your tank tells you not to heal then almost gets himself killed and forces you to pretty much res him since he's that low on health.
