Fails and Odds of every day squads/gaming

Servetje - Morai

Bugs i do have experienced and it has been repeated several times:

*sometimes cube of faith when i enter a room the room is bugged and missions are taken.
Therefor i have to use townportal and cube run is a fail. This can happen from rooms 1 to 59.

*sometimes during nationwar after a death and heading back to the fight i cannot use any single of my skills and char is completely shut down and i can only die.

*Sometimes when a barb uses a skill and my whole screen trembles and my char is total frozen when he use it in flowsilver palace.

*autobot does not work properly and on many occasions he refuse to pick up DQ or coins from mob i killed or somebody is near me and char goes to the dropped item from player.

*autobot does not have a feature to pick up DQ only.

A squad full of r9rrs getting stuck at frog boss in FS for at least 30mins...

MageMERC - Harshlands

From yesterday

Got my RB veno to 101 and have a lot of Feral Soul Stars and no idea what to use them for so I think to myself - may as well level the herc from 100 to 101 also.

So I'm obviously not watching what I'm doing and totally fill up the herc's xp bar only to realize it was already 101 so wasted 2/3 of my FSS for nothing b:cry

Oh, FSP, and the agony of a weak random squad...

Me on my BM, I join a random FSP squad. I'm not the strongest toon but somewhat tanky and know how to time HF, so still useful as a BM. But I was in for the full list of FSP fails:
- First language barrier issues cause the opening of the trap (1st boss) to fail 4 times.
- Once we finally got me and another english speaker handling that, 2 sins rush the boss - unbuffed - and promptly fall over. The rest of the squad buffs and we handle that boss without problems.
- We muddle on towards Aziroth (?). Cler decides to stay down on the ground, but lack of AOEs and puri's causes the cler to be targeted by the elites, and finished off by the dodge fields. Most of the party soon dies afterward. Barb decides to reset the boss in the water and we regroup.
- Aziroth try 2: Cler wizened up and went for the safe spot in that little O ring. Still had a few casualties, but the boss went down. Finally. BUT! No NPC. Leader "forgot" to open deicide mode. Whoops!
- We disband and resquad, open deicide. Slug our way to Azi again and, now having had practise, succeed without issue. Yay! 2 coins. It's only been 2 hours...
- On to Froglet! Luckily we had a (weakish) barb with is who could tank it, but didn't have the DPS to build aggro fast. That however didn't stop our friendly Psy from taking a few potshots before the barb had aggro locked. Froglet didn't take kindly to it, and came after the psy. One front chop later and half the party was busy respawning, including the cler.
- So we reset froglet, try taking it on again. This time everyone waits for the barb to build a healthy amount of aggro, and then we cut loose on it. Unfortunately, the person who was supposed to do the axes either had connection or mental problems and couldn't throw in time. Once we tried to switch the person who does axes, we got the "axe bug" - meaning no more axes in inventory. I still have the sneaky suspicion a few of the non-english folk had an axe in inventory at this point...
- At this point most people were so pissed that they dropped from squad. Me, the barb and another BM were left.
- We try again, calling for more players. Given that we had a barb, it wasn't a problem to find more members.
- Round 3! Trap and Aziroth proved no problem with the new party. One of the sins had a highish damage output, and with 2 BMs it was easy to chain HF.
- Back at Froglet! An archer wanted to do axes - no problems there. But wait! First axe that's picked doesn't go to the archer...
... because the squad was not on free. RAAAGE.
- So we reset frog, resquad quickly without resetting the instance. Round 3 vs Froglet... and finally the big one croaks. Well over 3 hours... and I've got 4 coins! For our efforts, we got -no- pages whatsoever, all the chest spawns were bad ones.
- Succubus went quite well by comparison. Sure, one of the sins didn't quite understand that when you're told to scatter and if the barb has aggro, you shouldn't keep chasing the boss... but me and the other BM handled the tanking while they both walked back to us. 7 coins! And it was about 4 hours now.
- On to Mushi! But wait, you need to beat 5 kings beforehand... A fierce fight indeed! Of course, people tend to forget that if a cler sets BB in the center, a cler draws heal aggro unless someone tanky is smart enough to hit the bosses before that happens. But noone gave Yeh a good smack on the nose, so Yeh gave our cler a good smack on the bum. All the way back to the instance start... A mystic handled healing the ranged chars while BP proved sufficient for the melee group, so we were okay there.
- Five kings down, Mushi decides to come and play. He decides to open with his chi eruption for giggles...
... and 5 squadmembers promptly die - a reminder to clear triple spark -before- starting that fight, just in case.
- Luckily the cleric wasn't one of them. I ended up tanking the boss while the rest rode back. After that we just start wailing at him. I think we had 2 people getting pushed into the fires during the fight, but honestly, I didn't keep track of who died to what at that point.
- Final fail. Boss rampages. I knew I'd not survive so I ran for it after unloading HF. The barb didn't. 2 sins didn't. The other bm didn't... The barb survived. The rest did not.
- So the boss is now back at about 75% health after his rampage, but no harm done, heck, we've been at it for close to 5 hours now... what's a few more minutes of beating Mushi into mush?
- Finally Mushi drops. Quest completes... 20 coins are mine. No pages or books to divide, so we all exit.
- Get me an A pack. Use? Yes! A card, Snakefist!

Totally worth it.

It's always entertaining to read world chat drama about an FC squad with 3 reborn people and 3 non-reborn and how some of them wanted to glitch bubble boss... b:chuckle Pretty pathetic considering I solo it on all of my RB toons and have done it unglitched in non-rb squad.

In most squads he's lucky to remain alive long enough to do anything with a couple of RB's hitting him. Glitching it is a waste of time.

Apparently his bubble had killed a seeker in that squad. b:laugh

Joe - Morai

Doing anything solo or duo with my gf, so I cant complain about any failures in anything.

But that is mainly a result of massive squad failures. I dont see any need to get my time wasted because of some nubish failures. No ty.

If the FSP runs I duo with my gf take longer then 40 mins then I alrdy start raging xDD so I really evolved into a person you dont wanna have in your regular Squad because I would rage anyone not nearly as experienced/coordinated as I am to death and yes, I would be proud of it =P

Tbh even rb'd I still pull that boss to the wall, but I don't wait for the shouts, no need: boss spawns, one pulls it to the wall as usual, when boss stabilizes on the spot (about 3sec) spark and kill without worry about being stunned.
It takes 3 sec longer Vs. what, a 10-15sec long seal-skill otherwise? I'd call it faster if anything.

Reborns in FC doesn't mean much lately anymore, every reborn I see in FC is still in either tt90 gear or has g13/g15 gear. Zero knowledge of their class and even with their lv100 gear can't hold aggro (barbs or other dd) from tt80 daggers on a non-reborn sin b:surrender

edit: forgot on-topic fails&odds:
FSP: People volunteer to do axes, then dont throw them, even when asked.
Succubus: barb can't hold aggro, so I'm tanking, yet barb doesn't disperse from the boss when the shout comes (so I holy path all around the map to his annoyance instead)
5 adds' in last room: 2 clerics, one bb's, other one RB's instead of doing magic dd (RB kindly overwriting every triple spark)
BH EU: people who say they can go out and back in, within 1 second outside and surprise they can't re-enter.
- People leaving mid-run after already starting the lanes and having picked up one of the shards: forced restart and one attempt closer to no BH for the day since it still bugs after 3-4 attempts.
FWS: People asking for 3 sins and a bm for spawnkill when they are 3k hp sins themselves. Just...no, shoo, get your *** into better gear and come back when you're all grown up.

b:surrender Even in non-RB lvl 8x squads I always try to get the boss done unglitched, even just to teach the nablets how it's done. My mystic solod it at 90s.

Hisiala - Morai

That boss in FC is more annoying than dangerous. Heck, my pet can solo it while I sit frozen in the bubble 99% of the time...

Anyway, back on topic...

It happened all in one day. Actually, in the span of a few hours.

Sold two Giant Beast's Armor at the price of 150k in the AH believing them to be Chin's Plate. Worst part was that I had chipped them.

A couple of hours later I crafter LA G15 helmet instead of an HA G15 helm. Thankfully a guildsmate came to my aid.

After that I decided to shut the game and go to bed before I made another mistake...

So im in a 99+ fc squad out of boredom and whatnot. i dont remember the exact squad format, i think it was a barb(me) seeker, psy, wizz and a cleric. So we are killing the boss that spawns bishops and i get asked how im going to pull the pull cause no sin to kill the shade+bishop. i said oh dw, ill do full pull just dont hit the mobs. so boss dies and i start pulling towards the bishops antistun and bestial rage on, spark and get to work on those bishops. At this point the squad is right behind me, the cleric wizz and psy patiently waiting for me to kill the shade, the seeker however, took it upon himself to start vortexing the mobs. He died before i had even killed the shade. he got rezzed and all so he didnt miss out on the pull but still, not 20 seconds before i told him not to hit anything b:chuckle

five minutes later we are in the big room, yay exp!! so we all start on the boss and then at about 60% hp the seeker starts pulling and im thinking to myself, the hands are gunna spawn on him and he is going to wipe everyone. I must of jinxed it because hands spawned on him, he stopped to kill the hands, the mobs killed him and the hands killed everyone bar the cleric and i.

Defo my worst fc run of 2014 so far b:chuckle and to add insult to injury, while this was going on, i had a pizza in the oven which i ended up burning b:cry

After NW our leader is so nice that he uses a faction signet to summon us all (usually to plume), everyone thanks him, then u start reading "you ****!!" "damn you!!"

The ebil man used the faction signet while flying over fc portal b:chuckle

My goodness, you have no idea how much I hate the whole "How are we gonna do that puulullll" bs in FC. I had the same thing happen on my barb about a month ago rofl. Thankfully most of the squad was decently geared/rb. They just ended up complaining about me not letting them know before hand...even though usually I just leave hypers on after the bishop boss rofl *Sins don't take that long to kill the two bishops + shade.* Most of the time I do the pull that way just out of boredom from doing it the other way lol.

But anyway here is mine:

My barb was still in Starfall at the time. I was just roaming around talking to my boyfriend while we were playing the game when someone in faction chat asked for help in an fc. So I typed invite and I got in. I noticed that someone from SF, a cleric alt from there, a couple more players I knew, my boyfriend via his sin and some random seeker were in there.

They just got done with the first boss, getting ready to do the magic mobs pull. The seeker asked if everyone was ready and that he was gonna pull. He didn't even wait for buffs...he just went on and about, pulling.
Mind you this seeker was not even RB *from what I remember.* TT80-90ish, not too good refines...

Anyway,

I then typed in faction chat that they don't need me *Seeker did just started pulling and seemed to be doing okay...* so I left squad. My boyfriend pms me asking me to please stay. I asked why.
Answer: The seeker just died pulling...again.

Again.

Riiight.

I asked him to reinvite my barb again. I buffed up, and proceeded to do the *full* magic pull. My barb's T3 + 5 whatever, whatever so he does it with no problems at all. The seeker keeps on going. I wait a bit so that way I could barb buff everyone. I then told the seeker to please wait so I can buff him.
He starts getting mouthy with me a bit and called one of the squad members nab although he just got himself killed in the shorten version of the pull LOL...

He left - I typed a few unpleasant things. He then said LOL that he will just solo fc on his sin.

Yes fail tuna b:bye Go be pro at farming more.

Here's two stories, one form a while ago and one from today:

I was doing a BH89, brim or eden don't remember, but I had world chatted about having one more spot, filled it, we started the run. Then this one veno pmd me to join, I replied 'Full sorry'. She kept pming me 'veno pls inv' and I kept responding that we were full, about 3 times. Eventually she started saying things like 'why are you ignoring me' and 'fine I'll just solo it'. I don't know why, but she just couldn't see my pms. My guess is she had pms turned off in whatever chat window. If I had another tele I would have just done that but I didn't. Eventually she stopped, I was just confused as to why she didn't see my replies.


Today: I was doing BH EU, someone moved and failed the run, so the barb started complaining about how that cost him 1m on his charm. We reset to try again, this time someone glitched and got stuck when the mirror respawned. The barb started yelling at them, complaining about his charm, saying how everyone is so fail. I asked him to not complain, he started yelling at me how I knew the squad was gonna be fail so I chose not to run (I'm a cler, the other cler wanted to run so I went to Eta). I kicked him and found another barb. He kept pming me to pay him for his charm. When I blocked him, he started randomly pming other members. Yeah, that was fun... Got another barb really fast though and he was great.
