So you live and learn right?

Did FC recently with an 80 Barb and a level 100 cleric joined us. The barb actually started the squad. They weren't happy with the barb half way through so kicked him and invited a level 97 barb.

I'm keeping my mouth shut thinking "Eek, I'm only level 81 how long before they kick me...."

So we get to the second last room when there's a squad wipe and its my turn to run all the way back to res everyone.

So I run back, res the level 100 Cleric. He gets up, kicks me and pks me in two shots (i saw what was happening so didnt bother defending myself obviously)

I guess he did it to get the most XP for the last two rooms - I really dont know.

Anyway just posting to serve as a warning when high levels join low levels for FC runs. Am thinking if I find myself in this type of squad again, I'll insist on being given the lead or I wont bother running it.

Have done 3 fc runs so far. None finished and gotten no xp at all - like I say - live and learn.

    That's pretty rude of the cleric. But why would you guys bring in a 100 cleric? Obviously had you, and I've ran FCs with 7x clerics before, not to mention EVERYONE under 100 would get exp cuts. That cleric could have easily found another squad his/her level.
    Oh well, sorry that happened. b:surrender Good luck finding better squads your level.
    Edit: if you ever wanna run FC with me, PM me in game or on my BM, sskinner, I won't kick you :P

    Like I said I've only done a couple of runs so I dont know much about them yet. As for the level 100 cleric, he just offered to help and as some people say about the xp loss - better to get a quick run and some xp than not get it done at all or taking a long time etc

    I believe, however, that he offered to help, seeing us as FC noobs, with the sole purpose of kicking us at the end.

    I actually find it much easier to run with 80 groups instead of +90s. Barbs have a much easier time to hold aggro in 80s and that saves the healer the trouble of healing all the aggrostealing -int BMs and sins that seem to take over at +90. Players love them fatnumber cirts and they don't seem to care that they can cause a wipe by overnukeing. +90 also always seem to rush things to get it done as fast as possible. Better being safe than sorry in my book...

    I remember I was in a squad of all 80s, this sin was really annoying, he apparently thought we were all 90+ and that the barb was going to lure all rooms and aoe them at the end. Ofc that's not what most 80s squads do because the barb is cannot take that many at that point in time, unless he has killer HP and a really good cleric. But anyway, he would kill ALL the shades before we would get into a room, even though we still needed them at that point to focus our aoes on. I got pissed off and told him not to. (I was wasting barrage on mobs that would die in 2 intervals anyway.) Then he proceeded to tell me I'm fail and that I shouldn't be barraging and archers are not needed in FC. I felt bad for my squad having to deal with drama so I left, but there are some serious nabs out there that I would kick from an FC if I had lead.
    Other than that, I have no problem with FC newbies in a squad, just tell them what to do, it's not that hard. Like Janalla said, we were all FC noobs once.

    This is what i think is the problem with most of the people who play this game, they seem to want things done NOW! Whats the problem? they are already 90, there's nowhere else to go but like 10-15 lvs more. But i'm sorry that happened to you guys, that sucks and that just sound like some narrow-minded jerks who only think about themselves. My advice, if you can go with your friends/Guild then do that, cuz now it seems that more and more of these random squads are being jerks (not all of them), and they cant even take a squad whipe without leaving the squad and pretty much saying "**** you" just cuz they lost some exp in a game...

    I do hope that this doesn't mess with your opinions about squads with frosts, because like the many people here said, 70's 80's, whoever, can do frosts and not everyone is a jerk. b:victory
