    I can't comment on others tanks, but if I am in a group of people who openly say they have never done it before I will do my best to help. Explain boss mechanics before the fight, give them tips on where to stand and what not. I generally give groups who haven't done the dungeon 2 tries at a boss and then will rethink how they are doing. If we are no where close to winning I may leave (polity and tell them why), or if we are close ill give it a third try. It may be a asshole thing to do, but if someone is constantly missing towers on first boss of fane for example... I wont be staying very long. I would rather die myself and have the tower broken at the right time, then have the healer heal me and have the rest of the party die.

    Got into a group for Golden Labs for story quest after 4 hrs, start heading out there since it was a server group, as I get out there the game throws me in my random group since I forgot to take myself out of the queue, making me immediately leave the other group (why the fuck does this even happen?).

    get into Golden Labs, tank pulls 4 mobs at the start, and dies because he can't keep 2 fucking mobs off the healer who goes down. Immediately he leaves group, then healer leaves, then the slayer leaves.

    Fucking locked out for the instance for an hour because he touched the first pull....fucking lockout should not start till the first boss.

    Tanks leave when so much as one or two say in the beginning that they haven't been here before.

    This happened to me last night but for CR. Finally put together a group for CR and I get sucked into the Dungeon finder group who literally did not care to do any of the story quests. At least I finished a few of the other quests and got a gld bow :T

    To be fair pretty much every trashmob in GL will do whatever they want, regardless of who has hate. So many Healers/Sorcs/Archers dead because they just stood there while the mob charges their 20k+ attack for 3 seconds.

    I always tell people to watch for temp hate shifts but no one really listens lol. So many people die in GL because they don't ever think the boss will attack them.

    This lol. Makes me laugh when it happens too. Was with this Sorc who kept getting rolled by the final bosses charge move because he wouldn't move after it started talking. Blamed it on the Lance for not keeping hate.

    I'm sure Eddard can agree with that statement; our first GL run was pretty special.

    And where we learned gravity and laws of physics go right out the window. They come down faster than they go up.

    Atleast it sort of made sense. If something that big were to body slam an Elin... well, it would crush them. lol

    So I heard they turned off most of the trainers in towns and the specialty stores that sold crystals?

    Towns are pretty barebones to show whats its like if your president sucks.

    Bank, common merchant, health, tele; think that's it.

    Lancers who immediately drop from the queue party if they see a Berserker because they want dibs on heavy armor.

    Giant boss, in Gold Labs, is the best. Small circle, 4x slow trap mobs, and the mob loves to Ping Pong around with Charge. Had a good pickup group that one shot the place and two shot AH. Good times.

    The barrels leading into the narrow hall in AH are the best. :D

    Either of you could've at least linked where the history is instead of writing a paragraph bitching about someone not knowing it? I couldn't find it so I can't.
