A bit off-topic, but It's quite hilarious that you roll characters that are best utilized in group settings and end up soloing with them. To each his own [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I actually make classes that are supposed to be in groups because I WANT to group. I like the "group dynamic" in this game, I love it really. I KNOW that almost any combination of classes can work marvelously well together. But my desire to group is usually overridden because stuff like the examples below happen all too frequently:

Dude wants to group with me, I say sure let's give it a shot, he joins the group then says "hey I'll be back in a bit, I gotta go do some RL stuff" and proceeds to afk for 10 minutes. Dude grouping with me regularly sticks minute-long dots on mobs that will be dead within a tick or two, and even ended up casting a minute-long dot on a corpse once. Dude grouping with me is a caster but never sits to med. Etc.

I want to group, but not as much as I do NOT want to group with people that do crap like this. Don't accept an invite if you're gonna go afk for 10 minutes, or at least drop so I'm not powerleveling you. Don't do crazily inefficient stuff like dotting corpses, especially after I gently point out how incredibly dumb that is and make suggestions for other things that can be done instead. And so on.


Fortunately for me I'm twinking the hell out of my melees so that I'm not SOL when it proves impossible to find another decent player (or more) to group with.
