    BINGO!! it's always spending money to keep mp going that you cant afford a res scroll or guardian to save exp when everyone dies they can just wait for a res and save exp while cleric runs to town and loses exp. Which is why we're on strike for better health plans b:victoryb:chuckle

    When I'm in the mood to level, I really don't mind random squads...

    Sure they can suck lots at times...but that's part of the fun. Make for many laughs when you're sitting around with friends swapping stories. And there have been plenty of times where it was just a rough start, but the rest of the run goes smooth as silk. It's just getting over that initial hurdle or two. b:victory

    I do bhs with random squads.. But there are a lot more noobs now since the 3-bhs system x.x And it sucks.

    I never heal when you're not aggroing all the mobs. Too bad for you but saves me exp (: And besides, most of the time i'm running in the front line and when i stop the others stop too. Once i had a squad and no one did anything before i started to move again x.x And they weren't afk... Kinda frustrating.. That bh lasted for like ages xD
    I mean.. Come on.. Is it that hard to attack mobs that are in the way? Is it that hard to listen to: STAY BACK! DON'T MOVE! DON'T AGRRO! Sheesh -sigh- (yeah i do have to do this sometimes x.x Especially with walkers.. It seems really hard to pull one and walk back before the others come x.x) And most of the time i'm not letting others pull, cuz i had experiences with someone pulling all the mobs instead of the boss.

    I am doing less bhs since the 3-bhs system.. Cuz of all the fail squads.. And sometimes i'm tired and i do fail. But it's not my fault if you run into 3 million mobs and demand me to save ur ****.

    I would say a lot of clerics aren't getting the help that other want.When we need our fbs done no one really cares all most other classes care about is themselves but still want a cleric.I wonder who is helping clerics with their fb19s most high lvl squads use to before the bhs came into effect.
    Looking for a decent casual understanding Faction.

    I agree with this part because I help a bunch of people, but in return I dont get a thank you or anything. I would love them to help me with things someday, but I just don't get that opportunity from them. Clerics are just selfless after all.

    I actually like running BHs with random squads. Sometimes they are really great; sometimes they are horrible; most of the time they are average.

    I do this because I feel it gives me tons of experience working with a million different playing styles, all levels of skill, and allows me to work with people I wouldn't otherwise meet. Not only am I better prepared for when things go horribly wrong, I am learning who is good and who isn't. This will help considerably for future RB, TT, FF, etc runs where it really is imperative to have a very good squad.


    Plus, it's SO easy for a cleric to find a squad within a minute or two if you just stand at the Bounty Hunter and post in general chat what boss you need.

    I still do random bhs. I usuually only resort to asking for my fac or a friend to help bhs when I really want to do my bh and when I absolutely must. However, when a friend or facmate needs it too and offers me a spot on their squad, I'll immediately accept unless I really don't have time. ^^

    Hence why most of the time I'm stuck with random squads for bh. Love it or hate it, bhs are boot camp for learning to work well in a squad. Bhs have taught me how to stay alive in a squad, and how to handle myself in dungeons. This allowed me background experience that allowed me to do well in TT. It's allowed me to get the knowledge and experience I needed stay alive in dungeons, keep others alive, know when I have no choice but to let someone die and to keep an eye on who is attacking what. It is also where I learned that idiots actually exist in this game, idiots whose mistakes can literally result in squad wipe and EPIC FAIL. Bad squads have hurt me a lot, but for most part I now laugh at how bad they were! Some people do things that are so stupid it's funny. I love sharing bad bh stories whenever I can. XD

    In response to the OP's startement about 'where have the clerics gone?,' I have noticed that nowadays I can get in bh squads very, very quickly. There have been several occasions where after posting "Cleric LF squad for (this boss)" in the local chat near Head Hunter, I get a squad invite in under 10 seconds. No joke. Twice I've gotten 2 squad invites at the same time, both for squads that need the same boss. It's something that I find kinda crazy. Apparently when squads really need a cleric, they'll watch the local chat like hawks. Either I'm just lucky or there really is a drop in clerics doing bh.
