Last time I did a weekend round of WoW BGs and Arenas it was pretty pointless. Just queue up and watch as 4-5 people on ur team just stand around aimlessly getting owned 1v1.
This game is so much better even if ur by yourself, or like others said a few others doing absolutely nothing. Productive or EXP efficient otherwise.
Part of having a 6 man grp means people can take breaks tho. Sometimes that cleric needs to warm up their legs, can you keep pulling and exping as efficiently if they get up, potty, blow up a hotpocket for 5 minutes? No (I usually offer to drop grp and camp out safely) and let them know i'll either be back in 30 or whatever if this is how it's going down.
Got to love those 16 hr grinds through 53 tho. It happens every once in awhile were everyone is just a machine and they got their gatorade bottles lined up and ready to go. I think a lot of weekend warriors are really dedicated to these grinds but play casual during the normal everyday life focus'd rather than pixel focus'd week.
OP seems like they are a little to invested in 'being #1 at everquest and not ever screwing up ever and doing 1-50 in 2 hrs'.
When u realize u can help absolutely terrible players and wierdos get some enjoyment out of the game without having to tell them when and were to root mobs, u will hit the next level.
