Never having had a chance to practice before makes things harder. Wow. So surprising. I still have fond memories of the 13 fridays in a row my guild wiped to trakanon in 2000. After which we won about 50 times a row without failure. That's how learning works.

Not quite, but we did bang our heads on a few of the pulls. Pull team did an amazing job learning some of the new mechanics that we hadn't had a chance to appreciate yet. Throw in KT, Zlandicar, Sleepers Tomb, and Yelinak and it was a pretty fun weekend.

As a raiding cleric, it was fun not staring at the same tile on the wall all weekend long. I think we got almost as good of loot clearing as we did on the bosses!!!

Can't give enough credit to the pull team though.

You are making fun of people who haven't, unlike you, dedicated their lives to an online emulator game.

Let that sink in for a minute.

That's what the losers say. Doesnt take a loss of real life to learn how to kill a Zlandicar in 2017.

You play... to win...the game...

Did you change forum names or are you for some reason impersonating Dannyl?

But didn't realize that this is more like... P99's 4chan or something.

except instead of random anons its a shark attack of a small clique that posts here all the time. so he's doubly fucked.

Yet have raid ready level 60 toons and want to spend more than the hours of their competition raiding... Just don't want to compete for it.

Let that sink in.

This is a common delusion among the A/A wall starers.

Clearing through a zone with 100 pals, figuring out splits, positioning, CH rots, tank orders etc. is more enjoyable for 4-6 hours than doing a few 5-10 minute dragon fights at 1AM 2AM 5AM 6AM 11AM 7PM 8PM and Midnight on a Tuesday, while requiring a select few players to be sitting there for 24-hours straight staring at a wall or track window waiting for the mob to appear.

Sure... they spent more time raiding. But it was scheduled during their prime time and you didn't have to ask 3-6 slots to be filled for 24 hours+ waiting for a dragon to spawn.

Gave up trying to decipher this gibberish.

Anyway, the C in CSG stands for Casual. Most of the CSG players are casual players (including myself), which means that EQ is not our #1 priority in life. We have things like jobs, families, friends.

We value life more than the pathetic pixels you dedicated your life to.

Now you can close the forums and go commit more years to get pixels you don't need trying to impress people you don't like.

I think people can live the life they want. If that's having a family and living in the burbs that's cool, if that's chasing pixels in a old ass mmo to impress only people who also chase those pixels that's cool.

Just be happy and have fun doing what you do.
